Don't Leave Me #3 *WattpadIndiaAwards*

Chapter 15

*Palak Pov*

I glanced at the message again, not believing those words, even though I have checked it again and again from the morning. I shook my head to not think about that anymore before glancing at my senior who is working hard to teach the interns about the new equipment.

However, I found him staring at me with a frown and I glanced around to see everyone is looking at me instead of the equipment.

"I am sorry about that." I mumbled switching off my mobile phone before walking towards the senior realizing he asked me to do something but I totally missed.

"Are you alright? You seem lost from the morning itself. You can go home and take a rest. You already helped me with everything for the past few weeks." He whispered when I shifted to take place before him as a patient for demo.

I don't know what pushed me into getting involved with whatever work is present and maybe deep inside I know the reason. It's not like I am angry at him for going out of India for shooting, but for the reason of no contact from him for the past few weeks.

And now he suddenly messaged saying that he is at my house this morning and that too from Satish phone. What happened to his phone and does he expect me to come running to his side after seeing that message?

"I am completely fine, Senior. And I am sorry about that." Saying that I continued to assist him and we finished the lesson after another hour.

After the interns and the newly appointed doctors left, I arranged everything in the original position and turned around to see him helping me out.

"Looks like your friends already left." He commented when we finished the work.

"It's already late, Senior. I didn't expect them to stay back." I said, smiling and he nodded checking the time.

"Let's grab some dinner then." He offered, glancing at me.

"Now?" I asked, holding my phone tightly.

"Yeah! We can't have dinner tomorrow morning, right?" he asked, joking and I just smiled at him.

"I know well that you don't have proper dinner if you are too tired after reaching home. I am sure you haven't changed that attitude from college days. So, let's go out and make sure you have your dinner. But if you really wish to go home, then it's fine." he added, smiling at me before taking his bag from the floor.

I want to go home, but I don't want to go right now too. I sighed before accepting his offer to join him for dinner and we both walked out after I took my bag to reach his car.

"Thank you, Senior." I mumbled when he opened the car door for me and he just smiled at my words which he wishes I don't utter but I can't do that no matter how many years it passed since he asked me not to thank him unnecessarily.

"I can't stop it." I pointed out to which he just chuckled before closing the door.

However, I heard a loud slam of a door, making me glance at the parking lot to find which vehicle that is getting abused by their owners.

"It must be an emergency." He mumbled, sitting beside me checking the same and I nodded thinking that could be it.

"Where shall we go?" he asked, starting the engine.

"Your wish, Senior! I am fine with anything." I replied, smiling and he nodded before driving us to the restaurant near to the hospital.

"Why are you working so hard these days?" that's what he asked the moment we placed our orders.

"So, this is the reason I you asked me for dinner." I stated shaking my head.

"One of the reason and the second reason is that I am hungry." He shrugged and I sighed leaning back to stare at his face.
