chapter 4
Inside the sterile chill of the operating theater, the buzz of machines hummed steadily...
Bright surgical lights bore down on Mir Zaroon Khan's bloodied form as nurses moved swiftly under Dr. Pari's calm, commanding presence...
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
(took out the bullet)
nurse
BP's dropping, 70/50..!!
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
Push fluids, open another line..!!
her gloved hands were steady despite the chaos around her...
Suddenly, Zaroon stirred...
Mir Zaroon Khan(ML)
(eyes fluttered open slightly)
Her vision was blurry, heavy and clouded—but for a split second, clarity struck...
He saw a figure, framed by a surgical mask and a soft blue cap, bringing hand near his body again and again with precise focus...
Through the haze of morphine and blood loss, all he could see was a pair of eyes...
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
(spared a gaze at his face)
Mir Zaroon Khan(ML)
(gaze locked with hers)
She met his eyes, stunned by the sharp intensity behind them.. like a storm waiting to erupt...
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
(paused for a moment)
but she didn't flinch, She had seen eyes full of pain, fear, even death. But his… were full of defiance..
Mir Zaroon Khan(ML)
(tried to speak)
But his throat burned. No words came out from his vocal cords...
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
He's waking up..!! Deepen the anesthesia..!!
and soon after within moments, darkness surrounded Zaroon again..
Mir Zaroon Khan(ML)
(eyes closed again as fell unconscious)
nurse
Normal anesthesia dose wasn't even enough for him..
(muttered, half-impressed, half-exasperatedly)
nurse
This guy is built like a tank. And still tried to fight the sedation. Is he a soldier or something?
Pari didn't answer, focused on closing the gash at his shoulder...
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
(started suturing the wound)
nurse
His vitals are stabilizing..
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
(spared a gaze at his face)
Her gaze lingered a beat longer on his face while doing the sutures...
Something about those eyes…
She blinked, then masked the thought and turned back to the task at hand..
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
(suturing his wound)
Pari's hands were moving skillfully, stitching the wound with quiet precision...
Nurse/Dr.
look at him. Even bleeding out, he looks like he just walked out of a movie set...
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
(arched eyebrow at her)
Mayo scissors, please...!!
Nurse handed Mayo scissors to her while continued speaking..
Nurse/Dr.
Don't you think so, Dr. Pari? Handsome… in a dangerous way?
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
(didn't glance up)
He's a patient, mind this courtesy..!
But though her voice was steady, her gaze–just for a second–betrayed her...
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
(spared a slight gaze at his face while tying the final stitch)
It flickered up to his face, lingered at the sharp line of his jaw, the frown still etched in his unconscious features...
Something about him–His commanding aura even in vulnerability, unsettled her usual clinical detachment...
Dr. Kabir Sheikh(FL's frnd)
Sorry, sorry, Pari yaar..!!
(taking off the disposable surgical gown)
Finally Kabir entered the OT speaking in his breathless voice, still wearing his scrub cap and gloves from the other surgery...
Dr. Kabir Sheikh(FL's frnd)
The guy took longer than expected. Anyway, Is he stable?
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
Vitals are holding. He was going into hypovolemic shock. GSW to the shoulder. I've irrigated, stitched, and started fluids...
(taking off her gloves)
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
He'll need monitoring, but he's stable for now...
Kabir moved to the other side of the table, nodding in approval as he checked the charts...
Dr. Kabir Sheikh(FL's frnd)
Damn good work. I owe you–again..
(looking at the monitor)
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
You owe me a week's worth of post-op notes, actually...
(took off her surgical gown)
Author
Post-op notes are the notes which surgeon/doctor writes in the file after operation about the procedure, staff names and patient's condition. And it's a hell of a tiring, exhausting and boring work.. 🥲
Dr. Kabir Sheikh(FL's frnd)
Sure... I won't run away...
(grinned)
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
Colgate ka commercial dena band karo, aur apne patient ki dressing karo ab, Birru..!!
(Stop giving a Colgate commercial and go dress your patient now, Birru.)
Dr. Kabir Sheikh(FL's frnd)
Aur tum mujhe Ye "Birru" bulana band karo, larki..!!
(And you..!! stop calling me Birru, girl..!!)
Parishay Zaman Shah (FL)
(spared a last gaze at Zaroon)
and then she strode out from OT..
