"Whom should be saved?The choice is yours",The Doctor said.
"Nooo!It can't happen.Please save both of them.Both are important for me".
RK wept.
"It is impossible to save both of them",The doctor said.
"What kind of a doctor are you?How can you say that you can't save them?"RK was frustrated.
Dadimaa said,"Doctor..save Madhu".
RK looked at her unbelievingly.
"Ok",the doctor said.
He went inside.
"Dadimaa..why did you say like that?What about the baby?"
"RK...only one can be saved.I chose Madhu over the baby.Because i know how much you love Madhu.She is your wife".
"I love the baby also.I consider the baby as my own baby".
"I know that.But the baby's real father is Dev and he is no more.So if the baby.."
"How can you be so selfish Dadimaa?"
Dadimaa's eyes became wet.
"I want the baby to be alive.But the situation made me practical".
RK was depressed.Kavya and Anjali came running.
"How is Madhu?"Kavya asked.He had no peace of mind.
RK's tears were the reply.
After some time the doctor came out.
RK did not look at his face as he did not have the courage to hear the news of the death of the baby.
"God has done a miracle.Both the mother and the baby are saved".
RK and Dadimaa were surprised.
"Thank you so much doctor",Dadimaa said.
"Madhu has given birth to a baby boy",the doctor said.
RK and Dadimaa were very happy.
Madhu opened her eyes slowly.RK,Kavya,Anjali and Dadimaa went towards her.
Dadimaa showed her the baby.
"Madhu..look at the little Prince".
Madhu looked at the baby.She looked around.
She looked at Dadimaa.
"Who are you?Who is this baby?"
All were shocked.
Madhu looked at Kavya and Anjali.
"Bhayya..bhabhi..what is happening here?Why i am in this hospital.I can't understand anything".
They were surprised.
Kavya's tears fell down.
"Madhu..my sister..you are alright".
Everyone smiled.
Suddenly RK got tense.
"Will Madhu accept me?"
"Bhayya..Dev...?"Madhu asked.
They kept quiet.
Suddenly she burst into tears.
"I remember..i lost Dev.He committed suicide because of me".
"No Madhu.Trust me.Dev's was not a suicide.It was an accident".
RK said.
She looked at him unbelievingly.
Suddenly she touched her stomach.
"Our baby..our love's symbol..my baby is ok.Right?"
Anjali said,"Madhu..you have delivered your baby.This is your baby".
Madhu was shocked.
She was actually confused.
"What are you saying bhabhi?"
"Months have passed Madhu",Anjali said.
"What do you mean?"Madhu asked.
"Yes Madhu.Now you are not pregnant.You gave birth to the baby.Months have passed.You did'nt know the passage of time.Till now like the sleeping beauty you were also sleeping without knowing anything".
"I gave birth to the baby?I can't remember anything".
"You had lost your memory power Madhu".
Madhu was shocked.
Dadimaa showed her the baby.She took the baby in her arms and shed tears.She kissed her baby.
Everyone smiled.
Present...
Bittu said,"Truth is stranger than fiction.It's true.It's like listening to the tale of Sleeping Beauty.RK Sir...Where is that baby now?"
RK did not say anything.
"Did they tell Madhu that she had married you?"Bittu asked him.
