Ch 3- Hello Mister !!

He quickly turns around in time to dodge but gets hit on his shoulder instead  really hard .

I ran towards him  and crouched  down to his level  where he is lying.

I see the three robbers tossing our bags on the road and fleeing from our site on the auto  .

Atlast ! Thank goodness no severe injuries happened.

" Ahhhgh" I hear him .

Well, nothing except this.

" Are you ok?" I ask him

" What do you think!?" He replies.

" Okok sorry . Here , let me help "
I place his unharmed  arm around my shoulder and gently lift him .

I make him sit on a stone near the road .

" You have water?" I ask him

" In the bag"
I walk towards the bag and take out the bottle.

" What should we do now ?" He asks after drinking a few large gulps of water . Looking towards the path  which we came from

"We should call someone for help of course." I reply like it was obvious. Because it was . But he didn't know that . He looked at me like I was crazy

" If you didn't notice  before ,those three took our phones ."

"I know " I say . But I guess he didn't like it. He took a deep breath and then kept drinking water but not before muttering  "Oka pichchi pilla ki teacher job evaru  ichcharo.." ( " Wonder who gave  a teacher's job to a crazy girl)

I glare at him . He kept drinking water.

I ignore him and proceed to stand up .

" Yes they did but ...." I scoop out a small  black purse from my blouse and take out a small size button mobile . "... they didn't take this !!Hehe!!"

I do a victory dance while showing my secret phone to him. 

I notice him looking at my chest area .

Men..

I clear my throat a little loudly and only then he looks into my eyes .

Maan those eyes!! I should say that's the only attractive thing about this man . Because his attitude is yuck!!

" Ok then what are you waiting  for? Call an ambulance ! " He says irritatedly  . What did I just  say.

" Not with that tone !" I curtly say.

He sighs and takes a deep breath . After a few moments he looks at me with soft eyes.
" Please .. its hurting a little. "

Oh F##k me ! What's wrong with me ?
Is this the time for ego ?!! A person is injured.

And if he asks me anything with those eyes I don't know if I could deny him.

I quickly call the ambulance number

" Hello , Sukanya Hospital ." I hear on the other end . And a lot of commotion is also heard in the background.

" Yes, actually we just got mugged. The man with me got badly injured. We really need an ambulance. We are at a forest  type area near Kranthi nagar i guess. ". I say to the receptionist.

" I'm sorry ma'am but no ambulance is available now. There has been a fire accident nearby  and all the ambulance and other Jeeps are in use for transporting the victims to here and other hospitals. "

" Oh .." I look at him . He asks what happened  ,I nod as no.

He snatches  the phone from my hand
" Hello ! Yes I'm Dr Vishwa kumur  . I actually got attacked on my shoulder with a big stone and the lady with me has  deep scratches on her arms . We really need a transport. We can't walk all the way to the hospital. " He says in a formal tone .
