Priya was shocked looking at the man sitting there.

Her lips slowly whispered 'Raghav'.

He winked at her. She quickly turned her face to other side.

"Uncle, if you don't mind can I talk with priya alone?". Raghav asked Priya's dad.

"Yeah sure". Priya dad said and asked her to take him to their garden.

Priya asked him to follow him through her eyes and went towards garden. Raghav too went behind her.

In garden

Both were silent for sometime.

Raghav cleared his throat to gain her attention.

"You didn't see my photo?".  Raghav asked her.

Haaan.. Priya looked at him with wide eyes.

"How did you know?".Priya asked him.

"Hmmm... the expression on your face when you saw me today". Raghav said smiling.

Ohh.... Priya felt embarrassed.

"It's okay.. Leave it.. Now tell me.. Are you forced into this?". Raghav asked her.

"No.. why would I?".Priya asked him confused.

"Because if you were interested ..you would have seen my photo... That's why...?" Raghav said.

Priya laughed hearing him and said "not like that... I forgot to see your photo... they handed me your photo when I was hurriedly getting ready to the hospital.. In that I forgot about it and Now I don't know where did I keep it ".

"Ohhh...." Raghav don't know what to said.

"How did accept to this?  you would have seen my photo na". Priya asked him with a frown.

"yes.. I came here after seeing your photo only..what you mean by 'accepting this' ?" Raghav asked her confused not understanding what she is coming to tell.

"Haan... That means.. even after knowing me how you came... That is... You are my senior doctor.." Priya said stammering.

"what? are you stupid?". Raghav asked her.

"Aiii mr.. "Priya shouted.

"Hey.. Relax... Why are you shouting? Really you are behaving weirdly today. You asked why I came na... I will answer that first.. I'm not interested in love marriage so left it to my parents...they were recently started searching bride for me... One day they showed me your photo... before that whoever photo they show I will tell one or other reason to reject them but after seeing your photo... I didn't find any reason to reject... from what I learned about you.. You're a dermatologist, you love all your patients as your own and treat them kindly, fun loving person, single child to your parents so you want marry in joint family , you have 3 friends ". Raghav said.

Haan.... Priya was dumbfounded on hearing him.

"How did you know all this?". Priya asked him still shocked by his words.

"Hmm.. I'm doing Ph.D about you". Raghav said teasing her.

Hmmm... Priya glared at him.

"my senior doctor used to appreciate you whenever she sees you saying you solved that critical case very smartly without any danger ... remember you also asked my opinion" . Raghav said with a smile.
