The Shattering Tale (Dark)(On Pause)

3. Is he fine?

Don't forget to give your reviews... You know I need them.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The doctor arrives after a while. He checks unconscious Dev's wrist.

"He's very weak. Hasn't he taken his meal properly?" asks the doctor.

Sonakshi was surprised to hear this. According to her, he's rich and is having over pampering family!

"Don't worry I've given him the injection he'll gain his senses till morning." He informs and she nods. Suddenly doctor looks at his injured fist. "Oh my God.... Why didn't you have yet done his dressing?"

"He's very stubborn doctor..... He didn't let me even touch his wound" a faint smile played on her lips. "Anyway..... I'll be doing it" saying this doctor opens the knot which has now turned red.

The cut was deep, and all three of them noticed. Sona's heart pinched while she was helping the doctor to do the dressing. "Let him take proper rest at least for a day." says the doctor and leaves.

Sonakshi sits and keeps caressing his forehead.

"Do you still love him?" Ele asks and this makes Sona's hand stop.

"No... Not.... Not at all" she removes her hand and gets up all of sudden. "I.... I hate him..." she says while a lone tear escapes down her cheeks.

"Let's go home then," says Elena. "Ask the watchman to take his care....."

"No..... Elena.... I mean don't you think I should be with him?"

"It means you care!" Elena asks folding her hands near her chest.

"No..... Of course not..... He has broken my trust...."

"Then we should leave no?"

Just then Dev's murmurs interrupt their conversation.

"Dev...." she rushes to him.

"Wa.....Wat....water......"

"Yes Dev waits...." she fetches a glass of water and helps him to have it.

After gulping water, he opens his eyes slowly and was confused to find Sonakshi and Elena. He sits up with a jerk. "I... I'm sorry" says he.

"It's okay..... You need to rest" Sona says producing hatred for him.

He looks at the watch which shows 1:45 am and stands up all of sudden. "I.... I need to rush to my home...."

Elena offered him a lift and he didn't deny it. Sona was amazed at this..... How can he take a lift from us?? This doesn't suit his attitude after all!

But ignoring everything they sit inside the car. Dev on the backseat, Sona beside him, and Elena drives.

During the journey, everyone remains silent and Sona keeps glaring at Dev, who was busy looking outside the window.

After a while, she feels something on her shoulder and it was his head, he was sleeping on her shoulder, peacefully.

She slowly was about to touch his cheeks but then was interrupted by Ele, when she said "We reached"

But Dev was still sleeping on her shoulder.

"I think it's because of the injection," says Elena. "Dev..." Sona pats his cheeks. He opens his eyes and pecked his mouth with a sorry.

"Thanks...." Says he got out of the car.

He stands, glaring at his own house meanwhile, Ele rotates the car backwards again. And Sona keeps watching him.
