Today, Aarohi was getting discharged from her complete medication.

"Here after you need not to stay here at night. But you should attend your regular checkups okay..?" Neelamma said to Aarohi and she nodded.

"Thank you so much Neelamma.. for taking care of me." She said to her.

"You can say this when your treatment will be completed and you'll be fully recovered." Muskan said to her by handing her the medicines.

"Ahh.. Muskan..? Where is Neil?" Aarohi asked her finding Neil nowhere.

"Aaaah... Are you missing bhaiji already.. don't worry Aarohi ji.. he will not go anywhere." Muskan giggled and Aarohi blushed remembering his confession at morning.

"Muskan.. stop troubling her." Neelamma said to her and she giggled

"He has just gone to the Bazaar area for some shopping, He got the adress from me." She said by giggling.

"Beta if you feel restless or if you feel any thing weird or if you have any difficulty in sleeping , come to me immediately or else atleast say to Neil. Okay..?" Neelamma said worried about her.

"Don't worry Neelamma I'm absolutely fine. And I'll definitely visit the clinic for regular checkup." Aarohi replied to her

"Neelamma why are you worrying so much.. it's not like Aarohi ji is going back to udaipur.. she will be staying in our homestay only.." Muskan said to her and Aarohi suddenly remembered her family.

The way she behaved with them, the condition they all saw her in and the way she ran from there with Neil  without informing them.

She thought that they must be worried for her. Her chain of thoughts broke when she heard Neil coming.

"Arey what are you ladies talking without me." Neil entered by holding so many shopping bags in his hands.

"Bhai ji we were talking about you." Muskan said to him.

"Ohh wow.. May I know what these beautiful ladies were talking about me..?" He said looking at Aarohi especially.

"No.. you need not know that." Aarohi said to them and he made a oh face.

"Okay neelamma we'll leave then." He said and touched her feet.

"Do visit tomorrow.. okay.?" Neelamma said and they went to see of them till the entrance.

As they exit the clinic, "let's go Aaru.." Neil said by holding her hand in his.

As he held her hand, goosebumps ripple over herself and she blinked looking at him.

As he noticed that Aarohi was looking at him, he left the hold of his hand and broke the eye contact.

"Uhh.. I'm sorry. Let's.. let's go Aarohi." He said looking everywhere but her.

"It's ok.. you can call me Aaru." She said looking at him

Neil suddenly felt something weird in his stomach but he decided to ignore it.

"Let's.. let's go Aaru." He said but this time he just gestured his hand to go forward.

She walked before and he walked behind him. As they reached their homestay Aarohi turned to him and looked at the shopping bags.

"So many bags..?" She asked by pointing her forefinger to the bags he was holding.

"Ahh.. actually with the help of muskan I bought some clothes for you. Now you don't stay at neelamma's clinic, so you don't need to wear those warm bathrobes which neelamma gave you." Neil said in a nervous tone thinking that she might reject the dresses.
