The Doctor's Therapist | AbhiRa Fanfiction

Season 2 - EP 18 - Past & Future

A small rewind: As Abhimanyu and Akshara delve more into their newly formed relationship, Abhimanyu's tension with his father becomes more intense. Akshara, on other hand, is unaware about the storm heading towards them.

***

"Are you not going to tell me why you were so angry when I called you yesterday, Abhi? I'm here for you if you need someone to talk to, someone who can listen, someone who can lend a shoulder to cry on and someone who'll never judge you. I'm ready to be that person for you, meri jaan"

Akshara said softly as she caressed the head which was lying on her lap. Abhimanyi and Akshara were lounging on the recliner in Abhi's office during the lunch break.

Abhi sighed, holding her hand which was messing with his hair and kissed it softly. He placed her hand over his heart, for her to feel how he feels so relaxed in mere her presence.

"I know Akshu, I know better than anyone that you are here for me always. And trust me I want to tell you everything, but I'm not ready to dig into those old wounds that still haven't healed yet. Give me some time, because I need to prepare myself before letting you enter my innermost fears and darkness."

Akshara smiled at him, before kissing his forehead, making him close his eyes and relish the moment. Oh, how he wished the time would stop here.

She didn't have to say anything to agree to his words, because for her, his comfort would be the biggest priority. Abhimanyu inwardly sighed a big relief, since he didn't have to talk about his so called sperm donor anymore, the mere thought of him flares his anger.

As they were smiling at each other, their door opened with a bang, making them both flinch at the same time. They both groaned at the sight of their smiling devil.

"Hello, my lovely peoples!" A certain devil screeched.

"Neil, you need to knock before you enter my cabin! It's over a 100th time I'm saying this to you" Abhimanyu complained, getting up from his most favorite spot, her lap. Akshara, on other hand, laughed at her silly friend.

"And you both need to keep all the romance PG-13. We don't want the hospital to have a scandal like 'THE HEIR OF BIRLA HOSPITAL CAUGHT RED HANDED WITH AN EMPLOYEE OF THE HOSPITAL'. It would be too embarrassing for me" Neil shook his head, as if he was a teacher disapproving his students deeds.

Akshara laughed loudly while Abhimanyu just chucked the first thing that his hand could hold- a cushion at his dear brother. Neil screamed running around the office, while Abhimanyu kept running behind him to teach this mischievous kid a lessson.

Akshara looked at them and smiled softly. This is what she wanted, for her Abhi to always keep laughing and her family which included Neil as well to be happy forever.

"My lord, please don't let anything take away these smiles." She did the "thu thu thu" to keep all the evil eyes off from the brothers.

Harshwardhan was going through some resumes for doctors for the new wing that was being built in the Birla Hospital.

These were the final candidates his interviewers selected for him to make a decision. As he went through the files, one resume caught his attention. It was a young girl, an excellent doctor and surgeon with remarkable achievements.

He smiled after reading all the information. It was as if he found the perfect candidate for the head surgeon of the new department.

"Dr. Arohi Goenka - you're welcome to the Birla hospital not just as a doctor but also as the future daughter-in-law of the Birla family. Now, we can finally have an educated girl from a wealthy family as a daughter-in-law, unlike that woman."

Just the mere thought of his wife put bitter taste in his mouth. He hated her to the core, he hated that his parents and grandparents forced him to marry a girl from a tiny village to become the daughter-in-law of Birlas. And that he had to give up his love for her.

"The time has come, when Harshwardhan Birla would be one of the most respected and influential person in this whole city. And this Arohi Goenka will be the one who will make my dream come true."

Akshara was packing up her guitar after her music session when her phone pinged. She kept her guitar aside to pick up her phone only to see a new message from an unknown number.

As she read the message, she gasped and felt her her body going stiff. She was not ready to face her past fears yet, not when she was going through a wonderful phase of her life.

Akshara could feel her panic attack taking an effect, but this time she was determined not to let these demons haunt the future she was planning with Abhimanyu.

Her Abhi was with her, she can face any situation, any worry, any obstacle without any fear. She is strong woman, not the naive little girl who once fell into the hands of those selfish people.

She took a deep breath and re-read the message which said-

"Hi my darling Akshara, I'll be coming soon to meet you. I missed you a lot, little bean."

Akshara glared at her phone, as if she was going to kill the person on another line. She deleted the message, putting the number in the block list.

This time, she will be the one who will win this game. Bring it on!

Hi my lovelies,

I know, such a long time. But the moment the show killed the vibe of our AbhiRa, I wasn't able to go back to my writing mood. I'm keeping up with the show updates but not too much invested in that.

Let me know what you thought about this chapter. I would love to hear feedback from my beautiful old readers and my lovely new comers.

MK 😘
