Story: Tainted Bride

"Find out where that girl is. I want that girl here with Aashi as soon as possible.”

"Yes sir…"

Armaan goes out for some time to talk on the phone. Aashi, who is trying to slowly open her eyes to see her father, smiles at him and starts calling Avishka again and again.

"Mumma… mumma… mumma…”

Prakram, who is very cruel, is very upset after seeing his daughter's condition, and he feels that he will probably cry any time after seeing his daughter's condition. He had no intention that Avishka would die; that's why he let her go, and lied to his daughter. This could potentially shock his daughter to such an extent that she becomes severely ill, all within the span of a few hours. He remembered the doctor's words.

'Sir, she is a little girl, a fragile and innocent soul who only knows how to love. She harbors a deep love for someone, and if she unexpectedly departs from her, her yearning becomes unbearable. All I have to say is that, as soon as possible, youshould take her to the person for whom she is suffering in her memory. You will see that she will get better soon.

Armaan immediately enters the room and informs him.

“Sir Avishka is currently sitting in the train going from Orissa to Rajasthan, and the condition of Aashi is similar to Avishka; she is also crying continuously, and as my man has told me, looking at her, it seems that her health is also very bad. She is continuously crying, vomiting, and feeling very dizzy.”

Prakram clenches his jaw, and when he sees Aashi, he caresses her cheek and kisses her on the forehead.

"We are going to your momma soon; there is no need to cry at all.”

"But sir, there is troubling news.”

Prakram glanced first at Armaan and then at Aashi, who was likely feeling very relaxed after listening to him. As a result, she closed her eyes. Perhaps due to extreme fatigue, she suddenly fell asleep while hugging Avishka's dupatta and clutching his finger.

Avishka's face has become very red, and she feels as if fire is coming out of her body because her body has become very hot. She has vomited many times, and now she does not have any strength in her body at all. She sees that the train has stopped at a completely deserted place, which is a crossing. There is a very loud noise, which she is unable to understand. She is trying to get out with great difficulty. As she manages to openher eyes, she suddenly hears the sound of footsteps, which gives her the impression that other passengers may be entering the compartment, leading her to close her eyes completely. She wants to cover her face properly, but she feels that she does not have enough strength left in her hands to do all this. But with tremendous effort, she covers her face. But another moment.

"Avishka…"

This voice alone is enough to intensify the shivers throughout her body. She tries to open her eyes to see Prakram standing in front of her, but the lack of space prevents her from sliding away to her seat. He notices the shiver running through her body and promptly informs her.

“Aashi misses you a lot, and because you're missing, she has a very high fever.”

This news is bigger than her fear or anything else, which is why she tells him outright.

"Aashi… Where is she?"

As she begins to search for her, Prakram unexpectedly grasps her hand, which is burning intensely. He turns her around and looks at her very clearly. He cannot see her face, but from the grip of her hand, he can guess very well that Avishka's entire body is burning with fever. She tries to move, but feels dizzy. He picks her up in his arms without any delay, and Avishka doesn't even have the strength to say no to him or put up any kind of struggle to distance herself from him.

Her face automatically comes to be placed on his broad shoulder to support, and he quickly gets out of there because the train has been forcibly stopped at this deserted station where he has come by chopper, and his chopper is in front. He sits in that choppercarrying Avishka in his arms, lies her very well there, and gives instructions to the pilot.

"Back to the hotel."

Armaan slowly turns and looks at Avishka, then at Prakram, who is currently looking outside and deep in thought. Avishka is able to hear and feel, but it seems that gradually her power is decreasing completely, and she is feeling herself falling into a deep black abyss where her power of feeling and hearing is ending completely, as if taking her into the embrace of deep sleep.

Armaan, Prakram, Aashi, and a few selected people, with the help of a chopper, had reached Gujarat within a few hours, where Avishka's train was about to reach. She was still 5 hours away from Rajasthan, where Padma and Vishnu were waiting for her. Soon they are here in the hotel where they have checked in, where Aashi is happily waiting for Avishka because Prakram had told her that he was going to take back her mother. Avishka has become unconscious, due to which Prakram brings her in his arms and makes her lie down on the bed, due to which Aashi smiles and immediately kisses her cheek, which is very hot, and she puts her hand to her lips and smiles, but without any delay, she kisses her mother again with love. She makes space for herself in her arms and lies down beside her.

“Mumma I love you... Thank you, Papa.... Aashi loves you so much."

Aashi whispers softly to her father. The doctor, who was already present, smiles at seeing all this and immediately starts treating Aashi and Avishka. After administering all the drips and medicines, the doctor stands near Prakram, who is observing both of them, and speaks.

"If these mothers and daughters love each other so much, then why are you separating them?" Look at the condition of both of them; it seems as if, after getting separated from each other, they had forgotten to live... Both of them's health will gradually improve. I have administered all the prescribed medications, and I plan to return in 3 hours to reassess their condition. However, my priority is to ensure they both rest well, and once Madam regains consciousness, she should be given some food. Make sure to give her food because the medicine will be effective only when there is something in her stomach. She has probably vomited continuously, due to which there is nothing in her stomach.”

Prakram just nods curtly and knows that the doctor goes away from there, and Prakram, with his hands in his pockets, is looking at Aashi and Avishka, who are sleeping very comfortably close to each other, as if their worlds reside in each other.
