Love Me If You Dare

73 - Care

Lakshmi's pov

" What are these? " Watching his grumpy face and that arrogance filled question looking at those fruits which I bought,
I felt like giving a smack right across his face but what to do ... He saved my life yesterday and got hurt.

" Some fruits for you. You should have them for your better health and recovery." I replied back very politely

"Whatever I eat if some people want to hurt our feelings then there is no use having any fruits to stay healthy. " Dev replied and it's obvious at whom he picked.

" I know this is not the right time to talk about that issue and you might not even want to hear anything from my mouth. Since you hurt badly just because you came to save me, I can't avoid not coming here and meeting you." I spatted back and stood there with so much guilt

" If my presence is making you feel irritated then I will leave right now. " I turned to leave making Dev anxious.

" How could you leave like that after putting me in this condition? " Dev was shouting at me. He is still mad at me because of those photos. What should I do ?

" My presence will only make you insecure. Anyways you have an attending nurse by your side all the time.    Also you seems to be okay..... " I mumbled

" What? '' Dev screamed

my god, why he is shouting like this ? Whatever I say he gets angry then why he wants me here?

" You feel like I am okay on this bed ? I can't even move an inch. Ahhh" Dev kept his hand on stomach feeling pain. What kind of stupid I am. Of course he got stabbed severely so he will be in pain.

" Excuse us " Dev looked at his attending nurse and said. She quickly went out for some time to give us some privacy. Once she left Dev asked me come close to him.

" See I got stabbed on my abdomen, my hand is in sling and it hurts, there is even a head injury, my whole body paining like hell. I haven't eaten anything properly. Whole family is busy with their job. An attending nurse can't be my help all the time with my all needs. She might do it but I am not comfortable."

I was listening to Dev silently and somewhere I felt pity for him. He is right, while in so much pain he must need a hand for help. Especially when he is requesting this much.

" So, what I was saying that you should be here with me all the time to serve me. Consider this as an order " huh ????
How comes this man could change his colour within seconds?

Now he started to order me ? Do I look like his maid?

" You should be here within my vicinity understood? " He asked

" Huh ? but my cafe " I looked at him pathetically

" You got 4 other staffs right? I will ask Gaurav to take a look at it every evening. So it's fine " Dev replied. Wait, what does that mean. I can't even go back to home?

"When I should leave then? " I asked doubtfully

" When I get discharged from here you can leave " he replied simply. My shoulders dropped down hearing his reply. Did I get trapped in this jail ?

He called his attending nurse from outside and she came.

" I will contact you if there is any emergency. Rest of the things will be taken care of my wife. So you can leave " Dev said to that nurse. Wait, did she just rolled her eyes on me ? What the hell she was thinking helping my husband? I frowned my eyebrows and was staring at her.

" You don't have to scare her. Girls getting attracted to me isn't anything new " Dev said very seriously. I mean..... Who is this man? Attitude king? Don't these girls have eyes.
