Ahhh! O! O! O!

When Sunanda heard these sounds coming from her husband Harshad P. Mehta’s room around 10 a.m., she left all her work and ran in that direction. As soon as she saw the scene in the room, her soul trembled. Harshad was lying on the chair with both his hands on his chest and was moaning. On the computer in front of her, the graph of Sabdhani Group’s shares was sometimes rising with green lines and sometimes going down with red lines. Seeing all this, she understood the whole matter, that perhaps Harshad’s heart had been deeply affected by the rapid fluctuations in Sabdhani Group’s shares. He seemed unconscious. He was having trouble breathing. He was sweating coldly. It seemed as if he was about to vomit. She quickly called her daughter Sonam and son Girdhar. Both these children were preparing to go to college. On hearing mummy’s voice, they ran towards their father’s room in a troubled state.

Reaching the door of the room, Sonam and Girdhar asked in a nervous voice – What happened mummy?

Sunanda – It seems that the fluctuations in the price of shares have had a deep impact on Papa’s heart. He has to be taken to the hospital immediately.

Sonam – Bhaiya! You and mummy pick up Papa and bring him to the car in the garage. Till then I will start the vehicle.

Saying this, Sonam immediately ran to take out the Celerio car parked in the garage. Sunanda and Girdhar picked up Harshad with great difficulty and took him to the car by supporting him on their shoulders.

By then Sonam had taken out the car and started it. Sunanda and Girdhar together made Harshad sit in the car somehow and with this, Sonam drove the car fast and took him to MG Hospital.

After all the formalities were completed in the hospital, Harshad was admitted to the emergency ward of the hospital. Girdhar kept running around to get the tests and medicines suggested by the doctors. Sunanda and Sonam sat near Harshad’s bed in a worried posture and kept taking care of him. After about two hours, all the test reports of Harshad came. Seeing those reports, Dr. Anurag Srivastava said that Harshad probably had a mild attack. As soon as its effect gradually ends, he will get well. Hearing these words, Harshad’s family members felt some relief. After keeping him in the emergency for about 12 hours, when Harshad’s condition started to look a little better, Dr Srivastava advised to admit him to a private room. Girdhar paid all the hospital bills through the mobile phone app. At that time, Harshad’s family members felt that no matter how much money was spent, Harshad would get well. They kept praying to God with this feeling in their mind.

When Harshad’s health improved and he found himself surrounded by family members in the hospital, he rubbed his eyes and asked – what’s the matter? How did I come here?

To be contd…
