A Case About Love

CH 7

KRITIKA'S POV

“I’ll see you later…” Dhibar said and stomped out of the room.

“Thank you Doctor!” I said as soon as Dhibar exited the ward.

“It’s okay….and also just call me by my name….I feel comfortable that way” Rehaan said.

“Okay Rehaan….umm…can you please give me the medication for anger issues and insomnia?!” I said in a pleading tone.

“Have you ever consulted any doctor regarding this?” Rehaan asked me in his concerned tone.

“Hmm I’ve….He has prescribed me CELEXA” I said.

“Okay then I’ll give you the same….just don’t overdose….and also try to control your anger naturally and take deep breaths…it’ll also help you to sleep” Rehaan said and I nodded.

“Ruhi go with Rehaan and take the medicines from him” I said and Ruhi nodded. Rehaan left the ward and Ruhi followed him behind. After a few minutes, Ruhi came back with the medicines. Then both of us started playing games. I’m a big fan of COC and Free Fire.

AUTHOR’S POV

Suvansh was standing outside the City Hospital. He was about to call the unknown person who wished to meet him in the hospital. That's when he saw Ishaan and Karan coming.

“Hi Ishaan!! Hi Karan!!” Suvansh said waving a hand to them.

“Hi Suvansh! What are you doing here?” Ishaan asked in his friendly tone which was reserved only for his friends and family.

“Hi Suvansh Bhaiya!!” Karan said and almost jumped and hugged Suvansh.

“Hey hey behave yourself..” Suvansh said getting out of Karan’s grip.

“Some bastard called me in the morning and asked me to meet in the hospital….” Suvansh said answering Ishaan’s question and again dialing the unknown person’s number. That’s when Karan’s phone started ringing. Three of them were shocked by the sudden realization.

“No way that you’re Apple Pie….” Karan said realizing his every word and his eyes widened when Suvansh nodded in agreement.

“How do you know Kritika?!” Ishaan asked finally.

“Oh candycorn…I and Kritika met when we were in college…..She was pursuing her career in law and I was studying Forensic science….I was her senior….We shared a great interest of spending most of the times in Library…..That’s how we became besties….Maybe she runs a company now because she used to read business related books..and when I had asked her about why she read another subject…she just told me that she had a startup” Suvansh replied giving all the answers to Ishaan.

“There was a murder in her company two days ago….I went to investigate that case….I was interrogating her on the way to hospital…that’s when her car’s brake failed and a lorry truck with no number plate hit her car….now she’s in the hospital….her assistant,Ruhi, Rehaan and I are taking care of her in turns…we weren’t able to contact her family….Rehaan is her attending doctor..” Ishaan described the whole story to Suvansh while entering the hospital.

“How’s she now?!” Suvansh asked getting tensed.

“She’s fine now” Ishaan assured him and three of them entered Kritika’s ward.

“Candycorn!!...”
“Apple Pie!!...”
Suvansh and Kritika shouted at the same time they saw each other. They did a bone crushing hug.

“How’re you Candycorn?!...” Suvansh asked Kritika invigilating her from head to toe.

“See I’m totally fine…” Kritika assured Suvansh.

“Ma’am I’m going home..” Ruhi said interrupting.

“Okay Ruhi…It’s getting late…be safe on the way…and if you have hired any cab then send me the image of the number plate and also text me when you reach home” Kritika said getting a little worried for Ruhi.

“Okay Ma’am..” Ruhi said and was about to exit when Karan stopped her.

“Let me drop you home…it’s getting dark…it’ll be unsafe for you…” Karan said. Ruhi looked at Kritika and she nodded her head giving her the permission she wanted.

“Okay let’s go..” Ruhi said and both of them exited the hospital.

“Do you like ice-cream?!...” Karan said in a hope to start the conversation.

“I do…” Ruhi replied in a low voice.

“Which flavor?” Karan asked as he saw an ice cream cart beside the road.

“Chocolate..” Ruhi replied. Her eyes shone with sparkle like a little child.

Karan ran towards the ice cream cart and bought two ice creams. One of chocolate flavor for Ruhi  and another of Vanilla flavor for himself. He ran towards Ruhi after buying the ice creams. Ruhi's eyes sparkled as she held her favorite chocolate flavor ice cream. Karan was also happy seeing Ruhi happy. They both enjoyed the ice cream while taking a walk side by
side. Their hands brushed but neither of them had the courage to hold hands. There was a comfortable silence between them. Then they sat in the car and after asking Ruhi's address, he drove towards her apartment. After driving for almost 45 minutes, they reached her apartment.

“Thank you..” Ruhi said getting out of the car.

“Mhm hmm..” Karan hummed admiring Ruhi's sweet gesture. A red tint covered Ruhi's cheeks as she felt his gaze on her.

“Good night…” Ruhi said and started heading towards her apartment.
