*Palak Pov*
“Chief is asking for you, Dr. Palak.” I turned to see a nurse standing beside me while I collecting my patients files back from the co-workers who took my cases.
“Okay!” I mumbled, but continued to check the files to check whether I got the right files and any remarks for yesterday’s treatment.
“Maybe because you didn’t even take one complete day as a leave even though you applied for one week, Dr. Palak.” One of them commented making me frown.
“I thought you just came yesterday as it was planned because you didn’t give the VIP’s case to any one of us.” Another joined.
“But why would he be upset if she is actually here to work?” I ignored their discussion and completed checking the files.
After giving them a polite nod, I turned around to reach his cabin before my first patient comes. Even I wanted to take this week
*James Pov*“You should have come and meet her for a second.” Grace mumbled from beside me while I just concentrated on driving and ignore the report I placed in my pocket.How can this be possible? I finally thought as the company is stable and I can think of my own life from now on but then… I was brought out of my thoughts by Grace’s question.“You know that I am not good at consoling people. I didn’t want to react in a wrong way and end up hurting her. I will meet her later.” I promised wishing that she let go of the topic.“I had to leave early because he came to visit her, but I didn’t see him. I hope everything is fine and at least they get back together. She is really sad to lose the baby.” I nodded hearing her words.“Because of their decisions, an innocent life lost its life
*David Pov*“Stop! You can’t do anything right now.” They held me back before I can take the second step and I fought them with my everything but I couldn’t stop anything at all like they said and this time I felt the tears forming in my eyes while I lost energy in my whole body. Why? Why did it end like this?After that I don’t even know what is happening around me. Did I just witness my brother marrying Palak? Why? How could this happen?“David! What is this about you planning everything? Is it really true?” I can hear Mom questioning me while I just stood there in the living room waiting for Bhai and Palak to come home along with everyone for the answers.Why did she do it? She replied to my message and accepted for this plan, right? Then why? I closed my eyes, wishing all this to be just a dream. This is not the first time I wished for many things to be just a dream. 
*Palak Pov*I sighed, staring at him while he is trying his best to act as if he is handling some important call, whereas I know he is just trying to stall as much time as he can.“Done?” I asked when he finally cut the call before moving towards the place I am sitting.“I will get another call soon.” He replied scrolling on his phone.“You already extended your therapy for fifteen minutes and now we stayed here for another fifteen minutes. How much more time do you want to give him before we can step in?” I asked, leaning back while checking the time hoping we are not troubling my doctor.“It’s not his mistake. The meeting extended unexpectedly and as his brother, I want to wait for him.” He shook his head while explaining as if he is talking about something I will never understand.“I can go alone, you know.” I pointed out holding my bag.
*David Pov*When my phone started vibrating I opened my eyes but stayed in the same position for a few seconds wishing I can again place my head on her shoulder after shifting away, but I know I can’t no matter what if I don’t want her to completely ignore me.“What time is it?” I asked, clearing my throat, finding her sitting still with her eyes on Bhai.“6’o clock!” she replied, relaxing her shoulder after I moved away while I took out my phone only to find five missed calls from Mom.“Did Mom call you?” I asked turning towards her, but she shook her head in negative still not looking at me.“You didn’t have lunch, right? And not even snacks. You should have woke me up. You shouldn’t be on an empty stomach like this. Why don’t you go home?” I asked, standing up still not believing that I slept for nearly four hours.This time
*Palak Pov*"Let her sleep comfortably for some more time." Mrs. Anthony's voice reached my ears while they shifted from the bed.I kept my eyes closed knowing well, it's already evening and I am supposed to have my snacks, but they decided to not wake me up.When I heard the door closed behind them, I immediately sat up straight before rushing towards the washroom.After walking out of the washroom, I sat on the bed finally feeling relieved after controlling my bladder for the past ten minutes while waiting for them to leave this room.Before resting I just went along with whatever they were talking because of the situation, but when I woke up it was more than awkward for me and I didn't know how to act in front of them.However, I know that whatever that happened is not because of these two and they could be the only ones who showed me their genuine feelings either be indifference or anything else.Som
*David Pov*"What are you doing here if you are that worried about her?" I glanced away from my mobile screen hearing his words."Are you trying to push me out of the room?" I asked, leaning backward on the chair while he just sighed lying on the bed.
#After Six Months#*David Pov*"Can I talk to you?" I got startled hearing her voice and even pushed my chair back to stand up immediately."Wh... what?" I asked not believing that she is here to talk to me by herself."Am I disturbing you right now?" she asked, glancing at the pile of work I am trying to work on even though today is Sunday.I want to spend time with Elisha in the evening and it is better to finish this before she wakes up. However, I think she already did as her Mother is holding her right now while she is gazing around."Sure! I mean, sure, you can talk to me and I am not busy right now." I replied, clearing my throat before gesturing her to sit on the couch and I moved my chair near to her.Why does she suddenly want to talk to me? I know I shouldn't be this surprised as we were communicating normally when she started taking care of Mom and Jasmine along with Elisha, when we lost B
*Prakash Pov*"Dad! I am really sorry. I have been really repenting for my mistakes." I continued, but he is not budging at all no matter how many times I am apologizing.He should know already that I am repenting when I am apologizing by myself when I generally don't do that at all."Be content with the fact that I am letting you live here. Don't ask again to join the company because no one is wishing to let you come near the director position." Saying that he stood up from the table to leave."Should I go and apologize to that... Palak or what?" I asked fisting my hands and he paused hearing my words."Don't even go near her. It's been nearly one year since she gave birth to my granddaughter but I don't have any right to even see her face. I had to relay on other tactics to even know this information and I am going to contact them soon, even though I feel like they will reject my wish. If you trouble her then I don'
