Continuation of previous chapter :-

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

All patients and other staff are moving here and there in the hospital.

Interns stood confused about what was happening watching the scene in front of them.

Gang stood grinning seeing their friends meeting finally.

While for Armaan and Riddhima everything and everyone has been blocked out from their view. Hospital,patients ,their friends and other things have been long forgotten.

They stood rooted in their places shocked taking in each other's presence as they couldn't believe if it was dream or realty.

Riddhima with tears takes slow steps towards armaan who still stood stunned. Seeing her move makes him move automatically taking steps towards her.

Tears broke out in both of their eyes and flows through their cheeks. They both come to halt at one point and stare at each other to assure that it's realty.

They both again starts walking towards each other and stop when they stood in front of each other. They both eye each other from top to bottom and stare into each other's eyes.

Riddhima who still cannot believe that her love stood in front of her and looks at him who will be crying now seeing his life in front of him. Riddhima realises it's reality,feels relief that he is safe alright and stood in front of her in flesh and cries whispering his name........

" Armaan......"

Listening his name from his basket after long time made his stomach do flip flop. He shuts his eyes enjoying his name in her voice and tears flows through his cheek. He opens his eyes smiling with tears at her and nods his head indicating that he is actually there in front of her.

Seeing him smiling and nodding, riddhima smiles widely with tears flowing down her cheeks . She moves her hand and touches his cheek with her palm and wipes his tears. She touches him delicately in fear that if she touch him he will disappear. But when he was still there smiling at her she grins widely but tears wouldn't stop.

Feeling her touch made him feel alive after longtime and he keeps his palm on her cheek and wipes her tears away. Touching armaan made riddhima believe his presence and shivers run down through her spine with his touch.

Staring at each other's eyes made them automatically move towards each other closer. Armaan couldn't contain anymore and pulls her close to him hugging her tightly. Riddhima's hands automatically wrap around armaan and hugs him back tightly.

Feeling each other's body,each other's embrace, each other's touch,each other's presence after long time made them cry even more vigourously. They both hug so tightly like there is no tomorrow and cried so much which shows how much they missed and loved each other.

They remain like that crying in each other arms and vent out all their pain which has been killing them for past six months. It was like they were expressing their love and pain through their crying. They were unable to speak any words except crying their heart out which have been all mugged in their hearts since six months.

Riddhima felt safe, secure and comfort in armaan's arms. Armaan felt happy, alive and home after longtime in riddhima's arms. They just stayed like that in each other's arms feeling comfort, feeling each other's heart beats ,feeling each other's warmth, feeling each other's unspoken words.

Muskaan, Anjali & Shilpa also cries seeing them crying and Rahul,Atul watches them with tears in their eyes too. Nana wipes his tears away and watches them happily. He loves armaan so much that he couldn't see the pain he was going through without bulbul and now he is happy seeing them like that. Nobody dared to interrupt such an emotional, adorable and a lovely moment.

Interns and others like staff and some patients are watching them in awestruck. They were flabbergasted, stunned, shocked, surprised all at the same time. They didn't know who is that girl and why was armaan becoming so emotional and crying with her but they are not innocent not to understand what was between them. It was crystal clear of how much they love each other.

T couldn't decipher anything out of this. She saw both are crying, smiling and hugging at the same time. She saw such emotions between them that everyone wishes in their life to have.....love,care,happiness and pain.....pain of love. She saw an emotion in armaan which she longed to see in armaan.........Love. From what T came to know is that armaan loves bulbul so she thinks this girl must be bulbul.

After few minutes of their crying armaan and riddhima pulled out of each other's embrace to see each other's puffed eyes and red face. Armaan wipes her tears with his hand and says.......

" Don't cry, mein tumhe rothe hue nahi dekh sakta." Armaan says wiping her tears.

" Tum bhi toh ro rahe ho.......aur yeh rotha hua chehra tum pe bilkul achaa nahi lagta." Riddhima says smiling wiping his tears and again they lost in each other's eyes forgetting whole world around them.

" Ahem......" Anji clears her throat.

No effect

" Ahem. Ahem." Muskaan also tries.

Again no effect

" Ahem. Ahem. Ahem." Nana gives a try.

No improvement

" Ahem. Ahem. Ahem. Ahem. Ahem. Ahem. Ahem. Ahem. Ahem." Whole gang together tries this time making interns and others to close their ears.

Finally ,both armaan and riddhima turned irritatingly at the stupid noise who were disturbing their moment scrunching up their faces. They saw all their friends were standing with arms crossed and smirk on their faces.

" Just to inform you people we are also present here." Muski says sarcastically.

" MUSKI !!! " Riddhima shrieks running to her and hugs her tightly.

" Shukar hai ab toh dekh li tumne mujhe." Muskaan says amused at her and hugs her back.

Ridz sneezes.

" Humein laga aaj humaara turn aayega hi nahi tumse Milne ka......." Atul bestowed at her.

" ATUL !!! " She sneezes." Aisa" sneeze " kyun keh rahe" sneeze " ho ?" Ridz finishes her sentence with difficulty.

" Kuch nahi.....tum teek ho ?" Atul asks her concerned.

" Ha mein bilkul teek Hoon......you know I missed you so much." She says changing the topic and hugs him sneezing again.

" Awe...I missed you too."

" Aur mujhe?" Rahul asks her acting as if he was hurt that she didn't acknowledge him.

" Of course Rahul .......I missed you too........" Saying this she hugs him.

" I miss you too.....how are you ?" Rahul asks her.

" I am fine" sneeze

" Teri cheekna katam ho gayye toh, mein bataadu ki mein bhi Hoon yaha pe." Nana shouts at her and riddhima jumps in her place listening to such sudden high pitched voice.

" NANA!!! Aap yaha? " Ridz asks him in surprise and.......and.......what?
Of course.....sneeze.

" Ha mein yaha. Aisa kyun pooch rahi ho ? kyun mujhe yaha nahi hona chahiyeh Kya? Yaha nahi toh aur kaha hona chahiyeh tha mujhe? Bataao? " Nana will be pondering her with questions and she will be trying to answer him between her sneezes.

Gang will be snickering and giggling while interns still stood dumbstruck.

" Tum itna cheekh kyun rahe ho? Kya hua tumhe?" Nana asks her after his shouting is completed.

" Kuch nahi bas mausam........." Sneeze.

She tries to say him between her sneezes and looks at armaan who will be looking at her narrowing his eyes. She gulps and turns away from him looking at her stupid friends who were in their own world of bickering.

Armaan goes to her,turns her towards him,touches her forehead and frowns. She is having cold and fever.

" Tumhe bukhaar hai." Armaan says worried.

" Bas thoda sa hi hai armaan,fikar mat Karo......" Ridz says smiling at him.

" No, first tell me, From when do you have fever? How did you catch cold? did you even take medicine? " Armaan will be ranting continuously.

" Armaan, I am a doctor and yes I have taken medicine a while back." Ridz answers to assure him but vain she knows how much he gets worried when she is sick and she sneezes again making armaan more tense.

Gang shakes their heads smiling knowing how armaan gets worried about riddhima for little things but interns wonder being a doctor himself why armaan is getting so much worried about little fever.

Sneeze

" Anji ,you were with her right? Tell me how she has gotten sick and when?" Armaan turns to Anji and asks her.

Anji looks at ridz who begs her with her eyes not to tell him anything. Anji looks at Shilpa who snorts at riddhima's begging.

Sneeze

" Anji?".armaan persists her hell worried.

" She has got sick because she was fully drenched in rain this morning." Anji finishes earning a glare from ridz but shruggs it off smiling at her.

Armaan frowns at riddhima who looks away looking around as if this was not about her.

" What were you doing in the rain?" Armaan questions her seriously crossing his arms and she looks down like a kid caught by her teacher and that made Shilpa laugh.

" Why are you laughing ?" Armaan asks her and ridz glares at her to shut her mouth.

" Because I remembered what she was doing in the rain this morning." Shilpa says smirking at her while ridz shakes her head right and left to shut up.

" What was she doing?" Armaan frowns again.

Sneeze and everyone sighs.

"She was playing football with the kids in the orphanage in the heavy rain, drenched full with rain water and mud." Shilpa explains to him while Muskaan and Anjali laugh.

Armaan squints his eyes at riddhima looking surprised, amused and with little anger for being so careless. Ridz squirms under his gaze and looks scowling at the people who are laughing at her.

Sneeze. More laughs.

" When I used to do such things you used to call me childish, immature negligent,careless and so on. And now what happened to all those things when you were playing in the rain without caring about your health." Armaan asks her amused and surprised.

Ridz heard gasps and looks at the interns who were watching them gasping. She doesn't know them and looks at her stupid friends who were giggling.

"Umm.....woh.....armaan" sneeze" I am obsolutely fine"sneeze " This is such a little " sneeze " thing " sneeze " why are you" sneeze " over reacting ?" Riddhima finishes sighing loudly.

" I can see how much you are fine. Now come with me." Armaan says holding her hand.

" Why?" Ridz whines.

" Because you need treatment and medication. I am a doctor too so I will personally check up you." Armaan declares.

"I don't need any more medication armaan...... I took medicine and I am " sneeze " fine " ridz says and mutters ' stupid sneeze' under her breath.

" Ok " armaan says and drags to go with him.

" Armaan suno........"

" Please Armaan......."

Sneeze.....ughh......

" Ok "

Saying this again armaan drags her ignoring her pleads and she looks back at her so called beloved sisters and friends who were saying her bye by waving their hands grinning at her like small kids.

She sighs and silently goes with Armaan as she knows he is so stubborn and will not listen until he does what he wants. But she was happy inside because armaan still cared about her as much as before like he couldn't see her anything wrong happening with her.

Gang looks at each other and laugh thinking armaan and riddhima are still the same caring for each other and fighting with each other. Interns looks at them awestruck still didn't come out from the daze of shock.
