Piara asked the servants to get some medicines and she went to his room. She knocked on the door and he hummed in a positive voice which signified her to get in. She got inside and saw Praneel sleeping, Lakshya was straightening his hair.
"It's time for your medicines, how are you feeling now" asked Piara "I'm doing fine and you decided to be my nurse" said Lakshya and Piara smiled
Lakshya sat in the bed and Piara sat next to him. She pulled the table and kept the medicines in the table. She slowly started applying medicines on the wound with care. Lakshya couldn't take his eyes of Piara , she was concentrating on putting medicines because she didn't want to hurt him.
"you really need to take more care of yourself, ever heard of self care , you do things for others selflessly and the end you just neglect yourself" said Piara "The person who is saying this doesn't take care of herself at all , always helping others and takes the short end of the stick" said Lakshya and Piara gave a murderous look
"I don't, I take pretty care of myself" said Piara with a proud smile and Lakshya gave an ' Are you kidding me' look "I do, I'm not kidding" said Piara "If you say so" said Lakshya and Piara smiled
Piara got back into nursing the wounds with care , he felt some kind of a good feeling seeing her take care of him. He lost his wife, his sister and he felt alone, his son was clueless of what's happening. He felt Piara cared for him atleast. Both of them got of them got off their trance hearing some sounds.
"Mom! mom! Don't leave me" whispered Praneel and the duo's attention went towards him
Lakshya tried to wake up Praneel and Piara started Wiping the swear beads on Praneel's head with her shawl. Lakshya was panicking and Piara held his hand reassuringly. Praneel at last got out of his nightmare and was panting hard. Piara hugged him giving him comfort
"Mom! Where is she?" Asked Praneel between his sons "Baby ,shhh try to relax yourself" whispered Piara in her melodic voice
Piara's eyes met the Caring eyes of Lakshya. He didn't know what to do, he didn't know how to comfort him. Piara was slowly calming down Praneel and by a few time Praneel got a bit calmed down. Lakshya looked at Piara and she gave him a reassuring look.
"Baby, come with me and let's change into something comfortable, I'll get you something to eat and drink after that" said Piara and Praneel nodded
"Thank you " said Lakshya. Piara raised one of her eyebrow which meant for what? "For everything" whispered Lakshya in her ears.
