Sealed With a Kiss~

･:*:･✿2.UNEXPECTED ENCOUNTER✿･:*:･

SHANAYA's POV

The following week, I was back in my usual routine at Starlight Hospital.

The hustle and bustle of the emergency room and the constant hum of activity were a welcome distraction from the chaos of last week's wedding.

In truth, the frantic pace of my work brought me comfort-it was a world I knew well, and where I could lose myself in the steady rhythm of helping others.

The morning shift had just begun when I was called to the front desk.

My curiosity was piqued-usually, I was the one sending patients off with care packages, not the one receiving them.

The nurse on duty gave me a curious glance and pointed to a stack of packages waiting at the desk.

Among them was a sleek, black box wrapped with a ribbon, standing out like a beacon amid the brown cardboard boxes and manila envelopes.

"This was left for you. No return address, just your name,"

the nurse said, handing the box over
with a raised eyebrow.

I carefully untied the ribbon, feeling a flutter of anticipation, and lifted the lid.

Inside was a card with a note and a single, elegant pen nestled in the box.

I picked up the card, and as I read the words, a mix of surprise and intrigue washed over me:

"For the remarkable Dr. Kapoor ,Thank you for your exemplary handling of the wedding reception. Your grace and professionalism were truly impressive".

- Aarav Desai"

I smiled, my curiosity piqued. The pen was inscribed with Aarav Desai's company logo.

It seemed that my unexpected encounter with Aarav at the wedding had left a mark on him as well.

Later that day, as I was making my rounds, my phone buzzed with a call from a colleague.

"Dr. Kapoor , there's a VIP patient being admitted. I believe you might want to prepare for this one personally."

"VIP patient?"

I asked, my curiosity getting the better of me.

"Yes. Aarav Desai . He's been in a minor accident and needs immediate attention."

My eyebrows shot up. It was clear this was not a coincidence.

I quickly made my way to the emergency room to prepare for Aarav's arrival.

When Aarav was wheeled into the emergency room, his usual composed demeanor was replaced by a look of mild discomfort.

I maintained my professional calm and approached him with a reassuring smile.

AARAV's POV

"Mr. Desai, it's Dr. Shanya Kapoor. I'll be taking care of you today,"

she said.

I met her eyes, a faint smile tugging at my lips.

"Dr. Kapoor. I suppose it's my turn to experience the chaos of the hospital now."

She chuckled softly.

"Let's hope it's nothing too serious. We'll take good care of you."

As I was settled into an examination room, I watched Dr. Kapoor work with practiced ease.

Despite the seriousness of the situation, she maintained a friendly demeanor, ensuring I felt as comfortable as possible.

While she examined me, we exchanged some light banter.

"So, Mr. Desai, what brings you to our humble establishment today?"

she asked warmly.

"A minor accident, nothing life-threatening,"

I replied.

"I guess I should be grateful that I get to experience your care ."

She raised an eyebrow playfully.

"You're not the first to say that, but I assure you, I'm just doing my job."

As the examination concluded and I was cleared to leave with a few stitches and some advice, I looked at her with genuine appreciation.

"Thank you, Dr. Kapoor. Your expertise is much appreciated."

"You're welcome, Mr. Desai,"

she replied with a smile.

"And remember, if you ever need anything, don't hesitate to reach out."

I nodded, and as I walked out of the hospital, I couldn't shake the feeling that our paths were destined to cross again.

This unexpected encounter had only deepened my curiosity about the enigmatic Dr. Kapoor.

AUTHOR's POV

As Shanaya resumed her duties, she found herself reflecting on the strange turn of events.

The wedding reception and now Aarav's visit to the hospital seemed to be pieces of a larger puzzle.

Little did she know, the puzzle was just beginning to take shape, and their story was far from over.
