020: BLOOD DONATION & DOG'S BISCUITS: TRUE FLASH STORY

In a winter morning, Vicky kicked the door of Sanju’s hostel room. Sanju abused him for waking him up so early on Sunday. Vicky said that their engineering professor CKS sir have immediately requested few volunteers for blood donation to one of his relative. Both of them ran and waked up few other students. With some persuasion and emotional blackmail, they also got Ronny ready, who could not say ‘no’ and was afraid of blood and needles.

In a matter of few minutes, 7-8 students assembled in front of their A Block hostel. With CKS sir in front seat, A white TATA Sumo came and except Ronny everyone got in the back cabin. Without anyone even noticing, Ronny ran back to his hostel room as fast he could. ??

In an hour they reached other side of Lucknow where PGI hospital was located. CKS sir first asked condition of his relative. He then took everyone to blood donation room.

It was a clean large room with see through glass separation walls and doors. On 1st corner there was a reception where donors details were being filled in a register.? 2nd corner had few beds, 3rd corner had 4 chair-cum-bed for blood donation and 4th corner had sofa and coffee tables. In the Middle there was an beautiful marble statue.

Sanju, Vicky and others registered themselves at reception and then proceeded toward donation chairs. Sanju and Vicky together got the chairs next to each other. After blood packet was full, they were asked to shift slowly to Sofa. They were served tea and biscuits by attendants in white dress.

Sanju asked Vicky to take some biscuits along with tea. Vicky was very choosy in eating and said that those seems to dog’s biscuits and he doesn’t eat such low-quality biscuits. He didn’t like the taste of tea as well and left it as it is. On the other hand, Sanju ate all the biscuits but one. His mother had taught him in childhood that in other’s home, one shall not eat all the biscuits and leave some in the plate. He finished snacks very fast and was in a hurry to go as usual. Within few minutes he stood up told Vicky “Let us go”.

Vicky stood up and both of them walked towards exit door.

Vicky told Sanju that he wasn’t feeling well and Sanju needed to take care of him. Sanju confidently held him with both hands- right one from back and left one from chest. They walked till door. Sanju opened the door with left hand and nudged Vicky to move first. Vicky fell on his face to floor.

Attendants and nurses ran toward them, they lifted Vicky directly to a bed in 2nd corner. Right after that one doctor asked Sanju also to lie down in the bed next to Vicky. They were given fruit juices. They were in bed for half an hour and then after checking their blood pressure nurses asked them to go. Right after crossing the glass door, they had a laugh of their life. Way back to hostel in TATA Sumo, Vicky took a nap and Sanju kept laughing.
