chapter 5

                   VANYA POVI sat in the car and straight away went to ISCKON Temple as I know my Krishna will do some miracle and my acha will be alright. It's 8 am now and I reached at the time of 'aarti'. I holded the 'aarti plate ' from one hand and saw the other side of the plate is holded by a man. I thought of leaving it as he was the first one to hold it. Suddenly, the priest stopped me and told to  not to live the plate as it will be inauspicious. Also today's nakshatra is Rohini (Krishna was born on this nakshatra) , so special 'aarti'. He suggested us to do aarti together. We both agreed and did the aarti together. After the 'aarti' priest gave us 'prasadam'. Priest : "You both did 'Aarti' together on the auspicious Rohini nakshatra, it means you both are made for each other and will always stay together no matter what. "We both were shocked after listening. I was going to tell priest that there is nothing like that and we both have never met and don't know each other. When he asked me about my father. Priest : "Molle, where  is your father? I have not seen him  otherwise he used to come regularly for praying on this day." This question bought tears in my eyes and I told him everything that happened. Priest : "Don't worry Molle, he will become fine. You take this 'prasadam' with you and make him eat it. "That man : "What are you saying? Dr. Dinesh had an heart attack and his operation is going on. Are you his daughter?" Vanya :" Yes, I am his daughter Vanya. And my dad 's operation is going on in City hospital. By the way, how do you know my father? We have never met before". Mayur : "We have met before. You don't remember me. I am Harish's son Mayur. Let it be, I will inform dad about Dinesh uncle."Vanya : 'No, please don't inform uncle or else he will take stress. Sorry, I didn't remember you, as you have a changed a lot from the time we last met."Mayur :" I will inform dad  and nothing to worry, he is emotionally strong. "Vanya : "Ok, I am leaving for hospital now." Mayur : "I am calling dad and he will come directly there." Vanya : "Ok."I left taking prasadam to the hospital. So he is the one dad told me to marry. I reached hospital and went near O.T . Dad's operation is still going on. Amma and Vanu are sitting in the bench. I go and sit next to them. After half an hour, Harish uncle and Swetha aunty arrive. Harish :" Geetha chechi ( chechi means sister) you should have informed us. "Swetha : "Dinesh anna is going to be ok Akka. You don't worry. I came hear to take Vanu to our house. I will make her eat breakfast and will bring tiffins to you both." Vanya : "No need aunty, We will have something afterwards from the canteen here". Swetha : "You both are like my daughter. So No more questions, I am taking Vanu with me and Harish is staying with you here." Swetha aunty left with Vanu. Harish uncle sat with us. It's 10:30 now and the lights outside the OT  went off . I went and stood near the OT. Doctor Raj came outside. Vanya : "Dr. How is my dad? Is he ok.? "..........................................................                       Mayur POVI couldn't believe my eyes as I saw the other person holding the 'aarti' plate was like Vanya. I was not sure whether she was Vanya or not. I thought of living plate when priest stopped us and told something. I was shocked  I don't know whether to believe or not. When the priest asked her about her dad, then I came to know that she is Vanya and what's more shocking is that Dinesh uncle had a heart attack. I talked with her for sometime and she left for the hospital. I was going to call dad to tell about Dinesh uncle, but I was afraid he may get worried and may panic. So I thought of going home and telling him. As I still have time for meeting. I reached home and told my dad and mom about Dinesh uncle's heart attack. I told him everything even meeting with Vanya in the temple.Dad said that he is going to hospital now and then Mom also went to bring Vanya's sister to our home with her . I told them that I have a meeting with client so I will not be able to come and they left. I thought of going to office to attend meeting. When I was leaving for office, I got a call from my client to postpone the meeting for tomorrow as he had a family emergency. I agreed with him and thought of going to hospital. I first packed breakfast with me to take to hospital. My mom came with Vanya's sister at  that time. Swetha : "Tiffin? Are you not going to meeting. You will be late". Mayur : "Don't worry the meeting has postponed. So I thought of going to hospital to visit uncle and this tiffin is for them". Swetha :" I came here to take tiffin only. It's good you are here, you go I will be here with Vanitha. Vanitha go and fresh up in Varshitha 's room. She is there upstairs. Afterwards ,I will serve you breakfast."I left to the hospital. I reached hospital and saw my dad outside. Mayur : 'Dad, why are you standing outside is everything okay? "Harish : "I got a call from college , so came outside to attend the call. Do you not have a meeting ,then why are you here. ? "Mayur :" Dad meeting had been postponed. So I came here with tiffin for them. Let's go inside."We went inside and went near the OT.Geetha aunty was sitting on the bench and Vanya was standing near the door. Doctor came outside the OT. Vanya asked about uncle's health. We also went near there and asked doctor again.. .... ,.......................  ....................................
