THEY SAY LOVE HEALS ALL WOUNDS BUT DOES IT?

CHAPTER EIGHT

When Zoya and Dave reached their Hotel, she realized she didn't have her phone with her so she used Dave's to call Sophia in case she left it at the Aroras but was disappointed to know that it wasn't there and that she might've left it in the doctor's office hence she asked Dave to ride her on his motor bike to beat the traffic that was in the city.
When she reached there she found the doctor looking at a screen that had a patient that was in critical condition according to the wires around him/her.

"Doesn't that violate hospital rules; you watching the patients. And I came to get my phone as I left it here" she showed it to the doctor after she had gotten it.

The doctor was startled because he didn't hear her come in.

"Oh! I had seen it and its good you've got it now and about breaking laws; we are not doing anything inappropriate especially when it comes to patients that are in critical conditions like her; your friend", he said pointing at the screen.

"That's the Preeta?" Zoya didn't look properly at the screen at first when she came in. She thought it was another patient.

She then saw someone seated on a chair near Preeta. His back was facing the camera so his face wasn't shown to them but the doctor knew who it was.

"Who is that person? I thought she wasn't allowed visitors?, you refused her family to see her awhile go".

"Your right but him and his brother pleaded so much that I felt sorry for them and had to allow him to see her, however I gave him a few minutes".

"Who is he?" Zoya asked defensively

"Her husband?"

"You've said husband"

"Yes, the one and only Karan Luthra, had no idea he was married".

"You did wrong, he's the reason she's in that situation"

"What would he have done?, he's a star and many young people look up to him. Am a fan" the doctor confessed but Zoya didn't look impressed.

"Let's leave him to see her after all, it's just for a few minutes and then I promise to never let him" the doctor continued to say.

Zoya watched on the screen as Karan stared at Preeta. With how miserable he looked and how his face showed guilt, she knew he was regretting hurting her. She watched as he moved to another side and moved his chair closer to Preeta's bed. He stood and kissed her head and sat down and then held her fingers in his. With how he had changed positions Soya could now clearly see his face as he was facing the cameras.

Karan had tears in his eyes, there was pain, guilty and love at the same time as he looked at the the woman he loves dearly attached to all those wires. His memories flashed back to two months ago before things got out of place

Flashback

They were at Sophia's apartment after, they had made love and were just relaxing. Preeta was seated in between Karan's legs, her back facing him as they talked.

"Can I stay with you baby for the rest of the nite?"

"Whatever you want", she told him

"And can I stay with you for the rest of my life?"

She turned looks at him end in his eyes and told him "always and forever".

"But your getting married to that clown and he's gonna touch you. I hate this break that engagement. I can't stand knowing that someone else is going to....." he said jealously.
