Chapter 14:
I woke up to some muffled conversation. I didn't know what was the conversation was about or with whom it was going on. I woke up and walked to where the voice came from. I looked; Rahul was on call with someone, some guy to be exact.
"I know man but that's not possible, not right now" He nodded once or twice.
"Mm hmm I know" he paused "But she can't be put in danger, not when I can protect her" he takes a deep breath "I know but I also have permission so I'm doing this right, for Rohan, for her" after a curt nod, he clicked off the call. The breeze blew calmly and Rahul rested against the window reel, probably over-thinking things.
Without any noise, I crept back to my bed. Once laid down, I closed my eyes and tried to go back to sleep but my thoughts had another plan. What was he saying about protecting me? Was I in danger? Would I be killed? What about Joy? I would never let anything happen to him and above all one thought killed my sleep was, had I made the right decision for me, for Joy? My train of thoughts was cut off by Rahul's warm body pressing against mine. I didn't want to but it put me to ease.
"You're awake" I heard his muffled voice.
"Yeah"
"What's wrong?" I shook my head not trusting my voice. His arms tightened around me and he kissed my hair. I turned around in his arms to face him. Tears welled up in my eyes as I tried to speak.
"I miss him Rahul, so much" there they are, big fat tears.
"Shhh I know sweetheart" he consoled me but it wasn't enough. Yes I know I was in love with Rahul, my son found a father figure in him, but Rohan was and always will be mine and I will be his.
After a while, sleep consumed me but my thoughts had eventually turned into dreams. I dreamt horrible dreams, this wasn't the first time.
*******************************************************************************
The next morning was a usual one but to me it seemed dulled. Not one thing I could get through straight. All I could think about was Rahul's conversation. I wanted to keep Joy safe and I would do it anyway.
"Are you going to the clinic today?" I jumped up a good one feet in the air by Rahul's voice. Off course he stayed the night and wasn't going to go home any time sooner. He was very keen on not leaving me alone anymore. He always surrounded me and this got me startled all the time.
"Don't do that" I scolded him with a stern look. He smiled his cute smile and kissed me forehead with a 'Sorry babe'
"I have to go" I said while he hugged me, hiding his face into my hair.
"I will drop you off and then go home" I scrunched my brows.
"Why?"
"Why? What do you mean why? Can't I drop my girlfriend at work?" I pulled away from him to look at his face.
"No Rahul, it's not that. You always seem to follow me. Why is that? Is something wrong?" I asked as I found my bundle of joy making his way towards us.
"Momma" he gestured for me to pick him up.
"I am waiting Rahul, is something wrong?" he wasn't making any eye contact which ticked me further.
"Rahul" I tried looking at him but he looked away.
"Everything is fine" was all he said and stuttered out of the room. Something didn't seem right. That was surprising, huh! Weird, much?
"Let's get going, shall we?" I asked Joy to which he giggled and clapped his hands.
Once showered and dressed, I packed us some lunch and made my way to the room. I packed my bag and quickly made my way out and cleaned joy up. Once done, we were ready to go with Rahul hot on his heels.
***********************************************************************
He dropped us near our clinic and I picked Joy while taking my things. Rahul waited until I was inside and his gleam predatory- which I had no idea why. He looked back and forth and everywhere near the clinic.
"Bye Joy, I will see you later" he waved joy and kissed his head. He cupped my cheek and smiled
"I will pick you up later" he said and I nodded. I still felt something wasn't right. What could go wrong in two nights was the only question swirling around my head.
Entering my work area, I started going through patients. Not that I minded but my mind was somewhere else. Question's swirled my brain and answers were empty. It was frustrating me, yes. But I had no other choice but to calmly drag out information from the man itself in the picture.
Afternoon rolled around and Joy and I had our lunch. It went smooth with Joy chatting, mumbling and me listening and teaching him about words.
"Say pleaseeeeeeeee"
"Pweaseeeeeeee" he said with a baby grin. I chuckled at his cuteness.
"Here you go" I handed him his baby bottle. He sucked his milk happily while playing with his own fingers.
Once done with lunch, I got back to work while Joy went to his deep slumber. Work went on with patients coming and going with minor cuts, burns and cold. One the arrival of last patient, I couldn't help but be happy. He had come down with fever and was shivering when I diagnosed him. I gave him a suitable antibiotic and some energy tablets.
"Thank you Doctor" I nodded
"You're welcome Mr. Malik" He walked out the door and I puffed out breath. I was beyond tired and couldn't help but yawn. I smiled looking at Joy who was peacefully sleeping. I happily cleared my table and walked towards the bathroom to clean up. After my business I came out just to find my phone go off. Clicking my tongue, I went to pick it up. I grabbed the phone but suddenly the phone stops ringing, clearly the other person was way too desperate or in a rush. I sighed and ran a hand through my hair. I checked the numb but it comes unknown. For some reason it felt fishy. I sighed and picked up Joy and put him on my shoulder. My secretary opened the door to inform me that she was leaving, without wasting any time I left to go as well. That's when everything changed. As soon as I stepped out, a group of men came crashing down on me and snatched Joy away. I screamed out a scary yell and within minutes they drugged me to sleep, or so I thought.
