Just another busy day in the office. Customers walking in, with queries, with concerns for their steeds. It was 2 in the noon, dint have had my breakfast in the morning, nothing unusual about it though, already had three cups of tea. All in all, a just another day, with just another regular things going.
My phone rang and I saw her name displayed. Unwillingly, I answered the call.
“Rohit, Papa chaley gayey, Papa chaley gayey, Papa chaley gayey.” For a fraction of second, I could not figure out what was being said, but then, I gained my senses, “ Ro matt, mein aa raha hoon. Kaisey hua?” I asked. “Heart-attack”, that’s all she could say.
I called up my boss and told him that I need to go to her place and asked for the days leave. I informed Desideep and asked him if he could be there. I called up Never-say-never and asked him to take me to her place. I was feeling too weak to ride. Perhaps for the first time I felt that am not that strong.
I lost my Father in a tragic accident barely 3 years ago in the same month and then my Mother after a brief illness few months later. I wanted to cry, but could not…They just would not let me! I have to be brave; I have to take care of the family, and all these things.
It took me some 50 odd minutes to reach her place and all these 50 minutes I kept on thinking…what if this is just a Nightmare…what if a miracle happens..what if….
I had a tough time as a pillion, through the scorching heat of Delhi and with a restless mind. I reached in front of the house and saw Desi standing over there. I entered the house, saw her father all covered in the White sheet and people crying all over. She looked at me; I looked at her…tears rolled down my face. I could not see her crying, I am just not that strong and I came out of the house.
For a moment or two, I was stone dead. I dint know what to say what not to, what to do what not to. I was puzzled, clueless. Even when I am writing this, I see her face, her eyes and the unasked questions. Sad, yes it is, that such a thing happened to her at such an early age. Yes, I can say all these things so calmly because I have already been through all this or perhaps worse. Perhaps my ordeal is partially over now. Death, has never been pleasant, it always brings in tears, cries, worries. And this brutal fact of life has struck every living soul on this earth ever since. I have been keeping things to myself, I haven’t been too vocal about my feelings, perhaps I dint find so many wonderful people around as I feel today.
Anyways, there are a few things that I wanted to say through this off topic discussion.

• Love and take care of your parents. No one has seen God Almighty but our parents are no less than Him. Take care of them before its late.
• Try to learn and then teach CPR( am not sure if that’s the right terminology for it) in case of strokes. Things can be averted at times.
• A small note of thank to all my mates who showed their concern and expressed condolences.

Off-Topic Approved.

I got to know about this unfortunate incident through the 'Delhi-Chandigarh G2G' thread this morning. Immediately after, I got a call from Shivanshu who informed me about it as well. This is really shocking. I remember whenever we have met, we have ofcourse talked about Geetika's dad time and again. Although, I did not get the opportunity to meet him, but this news has really come as a shock!

DCS, I cannot even begin to fathom what must be going through her mind right now. I cannot even imagine what must be going through your mind right now. But, all I want to say is that I, or rather WE all are there with you and Geetika in these tough times. If you require any kind of help, or anything at all, you know how to reach me. Please do not hesitate to call, anytime of the day or night. Take care of her, take care of yourself.

May his soul rest in peace.
