Doctor Or Writer?
Doctor Or Writer?
I was signing more and more copies in front of the hospital. I felt blessed when the stethoscope hanging in the neck and pen slipped of the books.
This day was not the result of one day’s effort but my father’s dream. Though, his gentle hand had now been removed because ‘he is no more. The line which I hate to speak to my patients’ family but regret it more for my father.
He was the one who pushed me towards science. The day I still remember when the mouse click was shifting from the option of Science to Arts. I wanted to be a writer my father wanted to see me as a doctor. Father and I argued a lot. Mum came in between to resolve our fight, so she suggested taking Commerce. We both ignored her opinions because they didn’t belong to our interests.
“This could be better with these benefits…”
“No, dad, see… I love book writing.”
“I am your father. I know your future better than you,” he scolded.
His decision clicked science option and I admitted Science faculty. But I never gave up writing, when h
e was sleeping. I was awake with my literature. The day arrived when I gave the test of NEET and secretly to journalism. I knew that if I would fail in the NEET exam, my father would bend in front of my wish and he would allow me to pursue literature.
The result arrived of both the test. The screen gleamed and a screen popped up to show me to pass the examination. My dad felt extremely happy but suddenly, his heart ached and he was no more. Later on, I came to know that he was a victim of a heart attack and wanted me to treat him as a doctor but he passed away without giving me a chance. My phone buzzed and delivered the message of selection in Journalism. I was thoroughly excited but my father would never be. But Journalism is what I wanted and now I am free of my choice.
Literature, MBBS, Writer, Doctor….
The new morning brought new hopes. I choose MBBS to become a doctor and wrote a book on my journey with the help of my father. Book sold millions of copies and I signed them with a stethoscope hanging around.
