A Murderer and The Nurse (Slow Updates)

Part 33

I finally entered in the office, sister Geeta looked up as I slammed the door behind me.

"Hi Tejasswi" she greeted

"Hi" I replied walking over and taking a seat on the chair. "So is there anything I can help you with?" I asked. She just shook her head no.

"Are you okay Tejasswi?" She asked noticing the changes in my face.

"Yes why?"

"Oh I don't know. You just seem a bit off" She said

"I'm just fine" I said putting my best fake smile.

"Alright" she smiled "but remember you can come to me anytime for help" She said casually but it held more meaning as if she knows everything going on here. And definitely she knows she is the most senior employee. She knows what happened to Nikita. She even know Sunny is innocent. I was tempted to ask her but kept my mouth shut. I was worried about Sunny it's been 15 minutes but he didn't come back yet. He should be here after getting whipped. With each passing minutes my stomach grew tighter.

Suddenly the door flew opened and both I and sister Geeta jumped. Paras was first to enter and I knew who was behind him. I saw the dark red bleeding at the back of his uniform. His hair falling down and sticking to his forehead due to sweat. His eyes were half close and he looks tired.

"Sit him down here" sister Geeta said her voice frantic. Paras eased Karan on to the bed. Karan didn't speak. His eyes stayed looking at the floor.

"Let's patch him up quickly. He has lost so much blood" she said as Paras left the office. She pulled his uniform down as the fabric fell I gasped and covered my mouth. The horrid sight stinging my eyes with tears. Lash marks drew all along his back; cuts of dry and fresh blood were set deep in his skin. There must have been what looked like thirty marks. I had to look away turning from the sickening image. Once I blinked the tears spilled out on to my cheeks. My vision was blurred with tears but could still make out sister Geeta's suspicious gaze. She looked between Sunny and I with thoughtful expressions.

"Tejasswi Do you need to leave? I can handle this on my own if you want?" She asked and I immediately shook my head in no. Not bearing to leave him for a second.

"Alright then. Could you grab him a glass of water?" she said. I nodded and quickly turned to the sink filling the glass with water turning to face the front of Sunny this time. He looks tired. His hair was messy. I looked up to his face and found that his attractive eyes were already staring into mine. I desperately wanted to run and hug him. Run my fingers through his hair and comfort him in any way I could but sister Geeta surly won't like that kind of behavior. I handed him the glass my gaze not leaving his.

"Thank you" his voice hoarse from shouts and screams. He slowly sipped the water.

"I am sorry" I mouthed staring at him with blurry eyes. He just shook his head slightly telling me not to cry. I had to break my gaze from him so that I can attend his back gathering the bandages and disinfectants as I set them near him. We worked in silence as blood was wiped and cuts were clean with disinfectants and bandages were applied to his tattered skin. I had almost stopped crying with most of the injuries covered.

"Alright I think that's it" Sister Geeta said

"How are you feeling Karan?" She asked.

He turned his head to get a glance at us. "Horrible but much better" his voice was weak.

"Good " sister Geeta smiled as she got up walking to the small closet. She pulled out new fresh uniform for Karan. He thanked her and took the dress. He stepped behind the bed curtain to change his uniform while I grabbed the supplies which were spread for dressing. He came back looking all fresh and new.

"Tejasswi?" sister Geeta asked when I finished my work.

"Yeah?" I asked

"Would you like me to give you two a minutes alone?" she asked and I looked at her knitting my eyebrows. Leave us alone? I knew she had an intuition about something going on between me and Sunny but I didn't think she would be okay with this. May be she knows my Sunny is innocent. Finally someone seemed to be on our side. And I really like her for that.

"If you don't mind" I said. A small grin forming on my face. She exits the room immediately. "Thank you" I said as she left.

I got up and quickly locked the door afraid that someone will see us again. Better be careful this time. I turned to Sunny. Now nobody was in room only two of us. I wasted no time in running over to him throwing my arms around his neck but careful not to touch his back. He grunted at the impact and I immediately pulled away. "sorry sorry sorry" I apologized. "Its okay" he said smiling, even laughing a little.

My hands cupped his face looking for any sign of pain. "I am so sorry. Oh my god Sunny I was so worried and they had you in there for so long. I tried to help but guards threw me out and I couldn't get back in. I was waiting here freaking out, waiting like an idiot and then you came. I wanted to ask you if you are ok but sister Geeta was there. I knew it must have hurt like hell. I mean I still can't believe you did that. It must have been so painful and I jus-".

"Teju" Sunny chuckle interrupting my rant "I am fine ladoo". He surprised me by wrapping his arm around my waist, pulling me into him. "I mean it really fucking hurt but I am fine".

"Wait" I said giving him confuse look. "How do you know?"I asked

"I know what?" he asked matching my expressions.

"My nickname"

"Laddo is your nickname?" he asked grinning wide.

I nodded biting my lower lip. "my dadi used to call me that but why you call me Laddo? "

"Ohh. Umm laddo's are round and you were looking like one few seconds back when you were worried for me. Andddd they are very sweet in taste you know, just like you my LADDO" He said winking and poke my nose with his finger.

"How mean. You kissed me few minutes ago and now calling me round and fat" I showed fake anger.

"But I also said something about sweet" He said touching my lips with pad of his thumb but I showed no mercy.

"Teju? Baby? Sweetie?" I didn't answer him.

"Baby listen na" he whined

"Yeah?" I said rolling my eyes.

"sweetie, I didn't call you fat. But look at your face, its round like Laddo and You know what Laddo is my favorite and so are you. And you said na your dadi used to call you that. So can't I. I don't have the right to call you that?"

"No Sunny, you can call me whatever you want" I blushed

"So no more arguments. From now on I will call you laddo only" he smiled cheekily and hugged me.
