Sooraj got out immediately as he got call from Natasha that Fahim and Sandhya are taken to JT hospital. Ruksana, Emily, Mohit and Vikram followed him. When Bhabo tried to come Sooraj stopped her
" Bhabo Indira Aunty is alone and also all kids are here. You and Babasa be here. We will call you. Don't worry Sandhya will be alright"
Babasa too asked Bhabo to step back. Bhabo agreed. They all got in Sooraj's car. Ruksana sat alongside Sooraj while Vik, Mohit and Emily got at the backside.
" Ruksana please be calm, everything will be fine.See you have a life inside you. Your health can affect the baby." said Sooraj
" Ruksana Bhabi have some juice atleast now. Seems Fahim Bhaiyya will be fine. Else you will go weak" Emily gave the juice bottle in Ruksana's hand
Ruksana knew Sooraj and Emily were right. She took the juice bottle from Emily's hand and slowly started sipping juice.
When they reached the hospital they saw big crowd in front of it. They could see the posters of Fahim and Sandhya and people hailing the ATS team. Media was in full swing and the police was having a hard time controlling the crowd.
When Karan saw Sooraj and Ruksana he immediately waded through the crowd and asked them to follow him. Natasha was talking to media. Suddenly someone in the crowd told it is Sooraj Rathi Sandhya's husband and Ruksana Meher Fahim's wife. Crowd turned towards them.
One old woman pushed through the crowd and took Ruksana's hand " Beti I will pray to God that tera Suhaag amar rahe or teri godh kabhi sooni na ho" Ruksana felt tears in her eyes. She knew it was the most sincere prayer. She thanked the old woman.
Some men hugged Sooraj and told that for whatever his wife has done let his family be blessed with all the happiness in the world. For saving so many children their children be always safe.
With so many wishes and feeling overwhelmed Ruksana and Sooraj entered the hospital ward.
Karan took them to the doctor. Sooraj introduced himself and asked doctor about the status
" Sooraj Rathi surgery is going on for Fahim and Sandhya. Fahim has suffered serious blood loss. His palm might need skin grafting as the shell has destroyed more or less of the palm. There was a bullet in his right shoulder. Though he is serious since his blood group is O+ we have been able to compensate the blood loss and so we expect him to recover
Sandhya Rathi will also need some skin grafting on her left leg after the shell particles are removed. But she is more or less stable as the blood loss is not severe
We have one more officer Manjunath whose condition is very critical as he was shot on the stomach and the bullet just missed his heart. We are trying our best to save him. For the time being you will have to wait till surgeries are completed"
TV was still on Susheel Uncle's house with media praising the ATS team and in every channel Fahim and Sandhya hailed as the brave children of Mother India. It was then that the anchor in ANZ Channel Spoke. On the side Fahim shooting code 10 with his injured right hand was shown. The anchor spoke " Fahim Ansari has been completely injured in his right palm that as per the latest report requires Skin grafting and moreover a bullet was lodged in his right shoulder. He has suffered severe blood loss. Under this extreme circumstances, with intense pain Fahim Ansari has fought like a soldier and with the same injured hand he has shot a terrorist that too point blank on head. You might be thinking why I am highlighting this.
It is because ANZ wants to be the first channel to publicly apologize to the brave son and brave daughter of our mother land. More than a year back we the media has leveled an allegation against Fahim Ansari and Sandhya Rathi that an affair between them was the reason Fahim Ansari fired with his injured hand and lost Best Cadet Trophy.
Now everyone look at the man who is fighting with the fully injured hand. Does anyone of us think this man would have been deterred by a small injury on his index finger not to go for Best Cadet Trophy. A man who can shoot with a palm almost destroyed wouldn't he be able to shoot with that silly injury.
I would prefer the nation to join us in apologizing to Fahim and Sandhya for doing character assassination of their friendship for more than a year. Today let us hail them and be proud that we have them amongst us because of whom today we have been able to give a major blow to elements that are waging proxy war against our country"
Bhabo sat on the sofa tears rolling down her cheeks. Was it for an allegation that held no water she asked her beendini to go from her son's life. How couldn't he trust her beendini. How couldn't she know Sandhya only loved Sooraj. Wasn't her duty to stand by her beendini when the world made fun of her. Shouldn't she have told the world that she trust her beendini whatever the world say. Did she needed this anchor to know that Sandhya was chaste. Bhabo sighed. Babasa kept a hand on her shoulder as if signaling it is fine. It was time to move on.
Precap: Ruksana holds the news paper in front of Fahim as he opens eyes, Fahim cries, Sandhya too emotional, Sandhya and Fahim asked to take one month off, Fahim's parents decide to support Manju's treatment abroad as he is paralysed left side
