"Dr. Preeti , report to room 203 immediately" announced the PA system in the hospital. Preeti looked up from her clipboard and sighed , she wanted to take an early lunch break as she had not eaten a full breakfast but that seems impossible now. With a slightly disgruntled sigh, she hastily made her way to the room. On her way there she encountered her friend Joan and Radhika, who were a nurse and a doctor. They were both on their breaks but decided to accompany Preeti so that they will all go to eat lunch after.

Meanwhile in room 203, there was a large family consisting 3 very handsome men and 2 beautiful women accompanying them. One of them by the name of Prem Malhotra came in one a deep cut in his palm that was bleeding profusely that he got from lifting a jagged piece of metal. When they came in, they had specially requested Dr. Preeti Malhotra and said she was their family doctor.

The three women entered the room and Preeti was momentarily shocked to see her husband smiling at her with her brothers and sisters in laws there but quickly went into action when she saw Prem's bleeding hand in a towel . She read the report and examined his hand asking a few soft questions .

Meanwhile the other to women were exasperated at the event occurring. Despite Preeti being married and clearly showing the signs of being a married woman, she always managed to capture the attention of their patients. Yet the both of them who were unmarried seem to go unnoticed compared to their friend. And once again another patient has fallen prey to Preeti's beauty and caring nature. They assisted Preeti by bringing her the necessary materials she requested and watched silently as the man stared lovingly at the woman taking care of him.

Joan wondered if Preeti's husband would be angry at the man for looking at his wife as such. Pure love shone in his eyes which was strange for her to see as most men looked at her with lust for her beauty. She was so busy trying to figure out the man that she didn't notice the other people in the room smiling at the scene unfolding or the more loving way that Preeti treated the man.

Preeti blocked out everything in the room at the moment. She silently took her husband's hand and began to clean the wound. She didn't even care that her family was watching them with knowing smiles. She paused at Prem's wince at the disinfectant before continuing. She was much more caring than usual and there was a certain softness to the way she stitched and bandaged the wound. She ensured that he was alright before exiting the room to dispose of her used supplies.

As she left the room, Radhika voices the opinion that they will have to leave this hospital if they will ever get a chance of finding a husband, to which Joan wholeheartedly agreed.
The youngest male seemed intrigued by the nurses conversation, and asked why they thought so. Joan replied that all the men that came in the hospital patients and doctors alike only had eyes for their colleague Dr. Preeti. Radika added that even Prem was eyeing her and inputted that Preeti was married and warned him to not get any ideas or he would end up heartbroken like everyone else.

Joan said that she noticed his heart eyes and if he is not careful he will become the next Karan. Upon seeing the confusion on everyone's faces, Radhika explained that Karen was a past patient of the hospital who kept coming over and over again, feigning a leg injury to see Preeti. With a laugh she told them how Preeti gave him an injection with the longest, thickest needle she could find and that Karan never returned to see her again. Joan added another name to the list, this time a patient who pretended to have heart problems,all the girls banded together and staged an operation for him. Poor guy surely left with real heart problems after his "triple quadruple bypass  surgery".
Everyone had a laugh at Preeti's antics. One of the ladies turned to the man on the bed and told him to be careful and that doctor Preeti seems very dangerous when she wants to be. The man smiled shyly and muttered under his breath something which sounded like trust me I know.

Preeti reentered the room and gave instructions on how to care and treat the wound to which Vinod dismissed and said that she could care for the wound herself at home and make sure it was healed properly. Both the nurses looked shocked at the statement which Sapna's caught onto and quickly introduced themselves as Preeti's in laws and that the patient was her husband. Both nurses now red in the faces after realizing what they said to Prem as they now know quickly excused themselves from the room.

Preeti looked at her friends confused and turned back to her family. Vinod was smiling at her wickedly which she found unsettling and asked him what's wrong. He just said he wondered how many Karan's she dismissed and never told them about. It took a moment for Preeti to catch on and began to blush furiously and avoided eye contact with everyone especially with Prem. She was embarrassed, her entire family found out about her secret guilty pleasure. Preeti had always attracted men's unwanted attention and was uncomfortable by it until she found a better way to deal with it and that was to see how far she can get the men to run,it was quite honestly, hilarious.

She was about to stutter out her explanation when Sadhna made everyone leave the room and stop teasing Preeti so Prem can rest and Preeti can go back to work. She let out a sigh of relief as they all left and looked at Prem to tell him she will see him at home when his good hand held her wrist and pulled her into his chest ,keeping her caged with his arm. She pressed against him with a slight oomph at the sudden contact, he nuzzled her neck causing her to gasp shakily. He murmured into her ear that he would have to make more visits to the hospital to make sure that the men she sends to the operating room have good reason to be there afterall no one is allowed to make his wife feel uncomfortable as long as he is around. Prem looked at his wife and chuckled at the beetroot colour of her cheeks and kissed both of them and then kissed her lips softly. She buried her face in his shirt to hide her red face and finally looked up when she felt the flames in her face subside a little,and told him she would see him later and kissed his cheek, making him make that annoyingly adorable self satisfied smirk and pull her closer to kiss her properly before releasing her from his hold to let her leave the room.
