Avni woke up early the next morning and left before anyone was even up. She left a note for Neil mentioning she had urgent work. She stopped by siddhivinayak temple and then went to pick up neela for her tests. After the tests, she dropped her back home ,ensured she had lunch and then left for work. She tried to distract herself but she was very tense and worried. When she made her way home late at night, khannas noticed that she still looked extremely worried. In their roomNeil- avni, main Kal se dekh Raha Hoon, tum bahut pareshaan lag rahi ho.kya baat hai?Avni- kuch nahiNeil- avni, please don't lie to me. You should know that I can see past your lies by now...please batao mujhe kya baat haiAvni- sighed deeply- I don't know yet myself...Neil- sat down by her side holding her and said- ok.... talk to me when ur ready. But remember main yahi Hoon....to share your worries and fears always...aur mujhe bilkul accha nahi lagega ki tum kisi problem main ho aur usko akele handle karo. I'm here....Avni- I know. I know that. She said simply and absorbed Neil's warmth and affectionEarly next morning again Neil saw that avni had woken up and left - again leaving him with a note saying she will call him later.Neil was worried. He felt like something big was eating at his wife. And he was restless...he hated this feeling. The feeling that something was wrong but he didn't know what it was and how to fix it.Meanwhile avni and neela headed for the appointment. The doctor was a very wise looking and well dressed lady who exuded confidence and warmth. She ushered them warmly and looked through the test results. She asked neela cursory questions about how she was feeling, if she had any pain at the biopsy site, she quickly examined it too.Finally she sat them down and saidDoc- ok Ms.pareikh, I have your biopsy results.Would you like your daughter also to be present as I discuss it with you.Neela- yes pleaseDoc- ok. As you are aware , when you came to me in your first appointment, I discussed the different diagnostic possibilities for a breast lump in your age....and your biopsy report has confirmed our suspicion. You have a ductal carcinoma of the breast...or what we common call as BREAST CANCER.
