Sonia's point of view... "Huh, look she must feel ashamed to sit next to her masters" she sneered making it sound like I was a slave to them. That's it...! My fingers clenched making a fist, how dare she...! I am not a douchbag. I have had enough of her disgrace, now she will pay for everything. I stopped, turning around to give her an answer but my gaze fell on Neal instead. Both the little siblings were playing in the garden but Neal suddenly fell on the ground, struggling to breathe. Niki started crying loudly. Something was wrong with him. I rushed out immoderately. He grabbed his neck and turned red, unable to breathe I noticed that he wasn't breathing at all. I started checking up on him.He struggled hard to gasp as if it was some kind of difficulty, like shortness of breath or an asthma attack.Arjun came running behind me. "What..." he was puzzled, "Does he have a respiratory problem?" I asked Arjun who was panicked about seeing him struggling, he nodded after studyi
Sonia's point of view... Looking at his changed attitude, I smacked myself back to reality. He is a monster...! Monsters are not supposed to be gentle. I can't expect anything from him. I should keep myself away from him. "Nothing he is fine, he just needs another round of his dose and some rest," I said taking the bag of medicine from behind the table and keeping it beside me, avoiding his pricing gaze and hiding the anger in my eyes.Taking out the medicine, I was filling the rotaholer with the next dose, but my hair was disturbing me a lot.Whenever I am on a task, I forget the surroundings and just concentrate on it, with complete attention.I swirled my hair into a bun and topped it with a pencil nearby completely forgetting the fact that he was still standing right behind me. And might be thinking that I am clumsy.But that doesn't matter anyway. I gave the little boy his dose of medicine and turned around confirming that Neal was asleep now. Arjun was still staring at me,
Sonia's point of view... After a bit of hesitation, I agreed to come down to meet Vikram's guruji (master). He told me that his guruji was treating Arjun's mother too and for that sake, he wanted to meet me. Despite being a cardiologist, Vikram was very interested in ancient medicine and I like his enthusiasm. It wasn't him alone, when I was with my father, I saw many efficient doctors requesting Dad to take them as his disciples. Though Dad wanted this art to be cherished more, he did not accept any disciples among them. It's not because he didn't want to, but because they wanted to learn it not to save people but for their own profit. Everything was business. My father was a man of medicine, he learned it from his father as a legacy and that passed down to me. Though he never took an official disciple other than me, he had many assistants whom he trained to save people. Like how every shining thing attracts insects, gradually he became a target of many renowned doctors in Chi
Sonia's point of view... "XiaoBai" someone called my nickname and I froze. "I know it's you" he added and I took a deep breath before I could turn around to face him. "Kaka..." I mumbled hanging my head down. He rushed in and grabbed my hands. Tears cascaded down my eyes as I first time felt that I met my family again. I was five years old when Dad brought a young man of around twenty to twenty-five years of age, to our house, his name was Li Bolin and I couldn't pronounce it and all that I could call him was "Kaka" and he loved it that way. He was like a bodyguard for me, wherever I went he followed me just like my shadow. He was more like my assistant than my father's. He does everything that I ask him to do without even a single thought of decline. "XiaoBai, I can't tell you how glad I am to find you alive" he mumbled affectionately, I saw tears running down from his eyes too. I pressed my finger on my lip, gesturing him to stop. "Let's go out," he said and nodded, "We can'
Arjun's point of view... "I won't come with you, Mr. Arjun...! I want to go see that man if he is fine" I narrowed my eyes, it was the first time that my little wife was acting against me. I must be burning in anger and have to put everything on her but looking at her shivering self, I stopped myself. She was merely a lamb before me but now she was gritting like a pub. It was also the first time that I realized that I was going easy on her. "Get in...!" I groaned but she nodded her head, "No..." she said sheepishly, staring back at me. My eyes constricted and I clenched my jaws. The fury bubbled up inside of me, and without thinking, I stormed out of the car. Walking all over to her, I gripped her hand. "You are breaking the rules, Little doll and if that is so, I would love to breach the contract as well" Her eyes widened in shock when I pulled her near and scooped her in my arms. "Mr. Arjun..." she wiggled in my arms but couldn't break through my cage. I slid her down into th
Sonia's point of view... He let me go...! Seriously...! Is this for real or it was all a dream? "Take her to the hospital to visit her family" I heard him getting out, slamming the car door behind me in anger, fuming as if his brain was burning right now. I even smelt something burnt when I objected to his touch. I was sure he would force himself on me again but that reaction was so odd to take. I mean, he left just like that...! Though he left pissed off, I felt weirdly disappointed with his action. Maybe I am used to the behavior he had been showing towards me, all of him toying with me and forcing his kisses as he pleased. I don't understand why and what's wrong with me but I felt it weird when he walked away just like that. The driver sat back in the car and drove me straight to the hospital. I am not interested in a family reunion, the only thing that I care about is meeting my sister, Mita and yes I do want to see them once if my uncle is fine and that's it. Just once I s
Sonia's point of view... After what I heard from Mita, I felt a soft corner building for Arjun. He is actually not so harsh in reality and shows himself to be. Mita told me everything about how it all happened. He helped them with all the procedures in the hospital and paid off all their debts for them. Was that for me? I walked far away unknowingly, from the hospital till I reached a bus stop and it was then I noticed that I didn't have a penny with me. How could I be so stupid? At least, I could have borrowed something from Mita. Frustrated I decided to cover the remaining distance by walking again. Though I was tired, I literally didn't have any other options right now. I hadn't even started yet when a huge luxurious bus stopped right next to me. It was so sudden that I jolted a few steps to my side. "What the he...!"A curse left my lips but I froze when I heard someone calling my name, "Sonia...!" and maybe just listening to my name wouldn't have pulled my attention bu
Author's point of view... "Okay, if you want to call someone you can just call" The man standing before her extended the phone towards Sonia, "but..." he paused, there was a mischievous grin spread on his face. Sonia frowned, "You have to call him on speakers" he added looking around as all his friends cheered and agreed with him. "Yeah, that's right...!""Even we want to hear what your manager will tell you" Was this some kind of joke? Idiot...! Sonia was already pissed off. They had already made it hard for her. She heaved a sigh and without thinking much, she took the phone from his hands. "Okay fine..." Scrolling on the screen, she dialed the only phone number she remembered, Dheer. He gave her his number to call whenever she needed anything from him. "Hello, who's that" Dheer was trained to pick up the call in just one ring and he did the same. "Dheer..." she said softly, the moment he heard the voice he jolted from the place he was standing. "Ma'am where are you?" he s
