death (CHAPTER-4)

Sonakshi POV

One day when Sonakshi was making breakfast for herself and Ritik she got a call from Diksha. She attended the call and got to know that her father fall from stairs and injured himself badly and now he is in the hospital in a critical condition.

When Sonakshi heard this, she felt her soul leave her body, she couldn't even reply to her sister that's why her sister told her to come as soon as possible. She was on the floor as tears are falling from her eyes like a waterfall.

The fear of losing her father after losing her mother was eating her up. Just then Ritik came into the kitchen and when he had seen her on the floor he asked her what happened with a fake worried expression.

Ritik: what happened Sonakshi, why are you crying?

Sonakshi was unable to talk, it was like the tears are choking her. She tried to say, "D… Dad f…fall from stairs. Is he going to leave me just like mom, I am scared Ritik. I am scared. Diksha said he is in hospital in a critical situation.

Ritik tried to comfort her and said, "Don't cry let's go to your father, don't you want to see him.

She nodded while crying and Ritik said then what you are waiting for, let's go.

Ritik grabbed the keys of his car and they both sat in the car for going to the hospital. They reached the hospital in 30 minutes. Sonakshi entered and asked about her father, the receptionist told her where her father is and without wasting any second she started going towards there, Ritik followed her.

She met her sister Diksha and she told her that it's been almost 1 hour, dad is still Operation Theater.

Diksha: what going to happen di (used for elder sister "DI"). I am really scared. On the other hand, Sonakshi was controlling herself from crying because she wanted to comfort her sister that's why she said, "Don't worry everything is going to be okay. She don't what to say because it was also hard for her.

Ritik: did you inform dad also? Diksha: no, actually everything happened so suddenly that I didn't know what to do and I just informed Sonakshi di about Dad's condition.

Suddenly nurse came out of the operation theater and then Sonakshi asked them about her Dad's condition.

The nurse said that doctors are trying their best, don't worry.

After two hours some nurses asked them to bring some medicine after giving them a prescription and told them to deposit more money.

Sonakshi and Dikshya started being worried because they didn't have enough money to pay then Ritik said he would pay for the operation amount.

He called his dad and his dad didn't answer the call, so he called the personal assistant of his father. After trying a second time his father's assistant the call, he told him that Sonakshi's father is in serious condition and his family isn't able to pay his operation fee that's why he is paying their operation fee.

He is going to withdraw the operation fee amount from his dad's account. Ritik thought that it was a good opportunity to ask dad for some extra money, he had the money for his monthly expense but because of his greedy nature, he wanted more. He withdraws the double amount of money from his father's account. He paid the operation amount and kept the rest money with himself. It's his nature he fools his father many times for getting extra money, he can use anyone as an excuse for getting extra money.

Sonakshi and Diksha both were waiting for there for knowing about their father's condition it was already evening time, suddenly Ritik got a phone call from his friend. He excused himself and went to talk with his friend a little bit away from both sisters.

Ritik: hello

Friend: yeah, what's up bro?

Ritik: get to the point, fast

Friend: whoa what happened bro? I was just going to the club and some of my friends are joining too, I thought you will join too. Now tell me what's your decision? Do you have any plans?

Ritik: I don't have any plans right now and for your invitation, don't worry count me in. I am coming okay. Which club and what is the timing.

Friend: dude check your messages, I already sent you a message about the club and timing

Ritik: ok thanks bro

After that, he started going towards both sisters. He said to Sonakshi that I have important work in the company to do so I have to go urgently right now then Sonakshi thought for a while and she nodded in agreement.

After 25 minutes Ritik reached is the club. After Coming into the club he joined his friends.

He became drunk after taking a lot of alcohol there then he proceed to enjoy his night with some club girls. The whole night he was just fucking a club girl.

On the other hand, his wife was impatiently waiting for the well-being of her father. In the morning when ritik opened his eyes, he found himself in the VIP zone of the club.

He was drunk and wasted the whole night that's why he felt a huge headache then he called his friend and asked him to take him to his home after 15 minutes his friend came.

His friend drove him to his house. The whole day he rested there and had fun. On the other hand in the hospital after 12 hours of operation doctor said that they tried best and they also stated that his father has only a few hours.

Both sisters were devastated because of this news and they were feeling so helpless because after their mom left them only their father was left with them as a family. They started going towards their dad's ward.

They entered their dad's ward and for the last time, they both looked at their dad so lovingly, and then Sonakshi said dad you told me after mom died that you would never leave me then why are you leaving me now.

She couldn't control herself from crying while watching her dad in a miserable condition. Then her dad said to remember that he loves his both daughter and he is always with her and he will be watching his both daughter from heaven. He also said that don't worry Ritik will take care of her. He is a good boy ad he trusts that he will take care of his daughter just like he had taken care of Sonakshi.

Both sisters were holding their father's hand so gently like this is the only reason for their life. Both sisters were there the whole day the next morning when Sonakshi told Dikshya to go home but Dikshya denied so Sonakshi told her to go home and freshen up then Dikshya said then dad so Sonakshi told her that she is here with dad so don't worry than at last Diksha agreed and she went her home.

Meanwhile, Sonakshi was taking care of her dad then after 5 hours Dikshya came with lunch and I know Sonakshi di that you haven't eaten your breakfast and you just had a little bit of food yesterday, I know you are worried about dad but please di take care of yourself too because I can't bear to lose you too otherwise take me with you too.

I just don't have much strength to bear anything else bad. Her eyes started being watery then Sonakshi lovingly touched her sister's cheeks and said don't worry I will take care of myself. She started having lunch Sonakshi fell asleep meanwhile Dikshya was just watching her sister fall asleep because she knew that she is so tired.

After a while, she thought to check on her father because she wanted to spend her time with her father too. After all, she knew she will not have this chance again. She lovingly touched her father's hand then her father slowly opened his eyes and tried to smile but his smile was so dull.

He said that Diksha always remember to study well and never give up on your dreams and I know you are so talented. Have a good life my child and take care of your big sis too because now you both have to lean on each other in your hard times. Where is Sonakshi? I think I don't have much time now that's why I want to see her.

Diksha said no dad please don't say that.

Dad: - it's true my child and you know very well that after the operation doctors said that I don't have much time and I am thankful to God that I am spending my last few hours with my two beautiful angles. His dad also said that "Diksha remember this, that I am always with you and I will be always supporting you from above".

Diksha had some tears in her eyes. After some time Sonakshi also came towards her dad and she touched his hands and held those hands with so much love and care. She started remembering her childhood memories with her dad. Her dad was smiling while looking at her elder daughter.

Sonakshi was holding her dad's hands and his dad's hands were touching her cheeks suddenly his hand fell like it was lifeless. Sonakshi was in a trauma she couldn't collect herself to utter any word and Dikshya started crying uncontrollably and then Sonakshi also started crying and shaking her father's body please dad come back, open your eyes. Please don't leave me alone, your Sonakshi is scared without you. Please, dad. She also started crying a lot.
