《《 One week later 》》
[A/N: translations are not added in this chapter. They might be added soon.]
I was focused on updating the diet chart pinned to the refrigerator, scribbling down some last-minute changes based on the new medication schedule.
My thoughts were so absorbed that when my phone rang, it startled me. I glanced at the screen—an unknown number. My first instinct was to ignore it, but something made me pick up.
“Hello?” I answered, unsure if this was another work-related call or someone selling insurance.
“Hi, is this Heer?” A male voice replied on the other end, polite but a little hesitant. His voice was deep but soft, like someone trying to be friendly without coming across too familiar.
“Yes, Heer speaking,” I said, curiosity creeping into my tone. "And you are?"
There was a pause, then he cleared his throat. “Uh, it's Yash. Dr. Yash, actually. I—uh—your mother gave me your number.”
Oh. Right. That Yash. I nearly dropped the pen in my hand. My mother had mentioned something about a doctor, a proposal, and how she wanted me to 'just meet him once.'
But I didn’t expect the call so soon. Or... at all. I wasn’t exactly prepared for this. I mean, who ever is?
“Oh, right. Dr. Yash,” I responded automatically, feeling a strange mix of embarrassment and awkwardness bubble up inside me. “Sorry, I wasn’t expecting the call.”
“No worries, but please, just Yash is fine,” he said with a chuckle, probably sensing my formal tone. “We’re not in the hospital, after all.”
I laughed nervously, immediately regretting calling him 'Dr. Yash' like some overly formal stranger. “Uh, yeah, of course. Yash it is.”
There was a beat of silence. Neither of us seemed to know what to say next, which made the situation even more uncomfortable.
I could hear him shifting slightly on the other end of the line, maybe pacing, and I realized I was doing the same, fiddling with the edge of the paper in front of me.
