Visiting
Apollo hospital was always been a day dream for me. I always wanted to visit
after it was branded in recent time.
Never
in my dreams had I thought this day would be the right day for it.
You
know ''Whatever is destined to happen will happen''
Sadly
but gladly Cyril was the victim of my dream.
After the office hours my mind was totally upset as if I
was getting a revelation to go PG early. Without a second thought I
rushed to PG to see my room locked giving a lesson that second thoughts are
always necessary.
So
the next option is to go get the key from warden or to sit with Cyril in his
room and finish remaining office work.
Cyril
welcomed company with a movie.
As
the story of movie started getting intense I could witness some changes
happening for him. I thought it was all because of the movie.(You know its
Cyril watching movie)
But
this time I was wrong. It was fever getting intense for him.
Half
way to climax of movie and work we rushed to a local hospital nearby.
I
think watching award films would be much better than staring at the queue which
is already dead.
But
My hero was not in a mood to wait for the queue. Rather he badly wanted to over
act fainting to get a chance.
And
we even tried a hand but failed to impress the jury and selectors in the
hospital.
And
yes it was my turn to fulfill my dream.
The
board of Appollo started blinking bright in my thoughts.
On
the other side it was a Danger Alarm for him.
Appollo
welcomed us to the darkness of fear. My Dreams vanished in microseconds.
They
guided us to the Emergency room.
We
could see patients around struggling with pain.
A
Nurse came by us confused about the patient.
I
pointed my finger and said ''he is the patient'' in a trembling voice.
Soon
they asked him to lay down. Plugging a clip to his finger, thermometer in his
under arm, checking blood pressure, stethoscope and something, something...
I
was terrified watching all this dramas around until I was asked to wait in the
waiting area.
As
Time passed by I was called inside to see the patient.
I
was so stunned to see the makeover they gave him.
A
Typical patient struggling in his bed for selfie and a portrait photo for
showing the world what kind of makeover atrocity could happen for a patient
with primary viral fever in Appollo. However I accepted to do so, since it’s
looked as if he was making his last wish.
What
else can I do other than fulfilling the last wishes of the patient?
I
couldn't resist myself asking the nurse about his present condition.
She
said nothing to worry and he will be alright in few hours.
But
he was ready to spend the whole night.
I
think they are the much better jury we have ever seen to rate any melodrama with
a reasonably high score as a 4 digit bill.
I
was settling the bill in the counter and suddenly I heard someone chanting my
name from behind in a broken voice and it was Cyril eagerly calling me know the
score. And I know it would bring a heart attack for him, which may pave
way for yet another series.
So
I enlightened him the bill amount in a jar of medical reimbursement from
office. And he murmured 'God Exists'. With that heartfelt realization we left
to home.
Yes,
that was the end of Dreams for us forever.
And
yet again I was wrong.
The
token of courtesy was sown under his arm. All he want to do was to dig. He was
more than happy to mine a thermometer from his under Arm.! A momentum to be
cherished for the days to come.
And
you know I still believe all this happened is because of my new look.
