Chapter 16
"It's okay Armaan, I can go by myself", Shilpa hesitatedwhen Armaan asked to drop her.
"It's NOT okay, I know you have always been an independentgirl but my company isn't a bad idea", he winked and continued, "At least merijaan ki company ko to tum reject nahi kar sakti", he chuckled signaling at hisbike at which she giggled and agreed to go with him.
Shilpa, who has wore a lemon yellow chudidar somehow managedto sit on bike. She wasn't comfortable and when he drove off a speed breakerforced her body to touch his, which became awkward for her as well as him.
But they tried to control their emotions of the past and hetook a turn, she again thumped to his body and he stopped the bike andwhispered, "Acche se pakdo Shilpa...gir jaogi", she looked at him in the mirrorwith her big almond shaped eyes and gulped down. She finally grabbed strengthand wound his torso with her arms and drove off but on another speed breaker,accidently her lips crushed with his shirt and her lip color left theimpression on his shirt, and he didn't realize.
Shilpa gulped down and murmured in his thoughts, "Gosh! Abkya karun. If he will come to know about this mark then beech raste mein dropkar dega", and a lie hit her mind, "Ek kaam karti hoon batati hi nahihoon...hehe", and she smirked.
Sanjeevani Mumbai,
Record Room,
"Ek kaam karti hoon yaha search karti hoon. Papa ne Armaanki file chupayi hogi Shilpa ki nahi...I want to know where they are", Riddhima saidin her mind and started searching for the file of Shilpa.
"Kaha hai? Mil hi nahi rahi", she defeated said.
"Because it's with me... Dr. Riddhima MODI", a voice came frombehind who emphasized her surname, hearing the voice she turned and Dr.Shashank Gupta, her father skimmed out.
"Papa!...", she whispered and pressed her lips.
"I don't believe this. What the hell are you doing here andwhy?", Shashank curtly said.
She gulped down and tried to reason, "Papa I was just", buthe interrupted in between when Sid joined him, "You were just spying over herebut why?"
"Sir wo", Sid triedto explain and calm him down but he showed his hand to stop and stepped forwardto her, "Have you gone mad? Aren't you enough now?", he clenched his jaw and atear rolled down her cheek at which his heart melt a bit, "Look Riddhima yehospital hai jo confidential hai wo confidential hai"
"But why Papa these are just profiles. You can't hide them",she gulped and stuttured.
"Don't you dare to teach me what I've to do or not Doctor,you are an employee, just employee here. Got it?", he screamed in clear wordswhen she throw her cards, "But apne Sid ko bataya where is he", and looked ather husband.
"First of all Dr. Sid doesn't know where he is and by theway it's my deed to inform whom or whom not. Its none of your business", heharshly completed and was about to left when she called, "Papa aap...", but heleft without listening her and she broke into tears when Sid consoled her andembracing her in his arms.
Sanjeevani Mussoorrie,
Armaan and Shilpa entered the hospital together but all theeyes were on Armaan and the lipstic mark on his shirt. Shilpa grinned when allsmiled suspiciously looking at Armaan and she departed to the locker room.
When he thought, "What happen to them? Why are they behavingso weird?", he creased his brows and left for his cabin.
He passed the whole building and reached his cabin but thereactions from all were same at which he thought, "Sara sanjeevani pagal hogaya hai kya", and pushed the door of his cabin where he found Zaroon who wasalready waiting for him.
Armaan put the case file on the table and was about to sit,the lip mark skimmed and Zaroon witnessed it at which he pressed his lipstightly to stop his laughter.
"Hey man! Itni subah mere cabin mein wait kar rahe the, kyahua?", he asked but Zaroon's focus was on the lip mark on Armaan's shirt.
"Haan discuss to ek case karna tha but koi baat nahi shayadek case already discuss ho gaya", he winked but Armaan didn't get him.
And he thought that Shilpa has informed him about Daddu sohe said, "Yes kaafi serious case hai. Fever aur nakhre dekho dengue wale", andgiggled.
"By the way she informed you but when?", he asked toZaroon.
"Janab! Hum tochehra dekhke bata dete hain", Zaroon winked again.
Armaan made faces and uttered, "Ye sanjeevani main ho kyaraha hai all are behaving awkwardly including you"
"Matlab ye kuch aur hi soch raha hai", Zaroon pressed hislips and said under his breath but Armaan listen half of it.
"Kya soch raha hoon main? Come on Zaroon now at least tu toaissa weird look na de", Armaan said.
"Matlab kuch nahi pata?", Zaroon confirmed.
"Kya bol rahe ho", he asked.
"Weird humare look nahi h apka shirt hai", replied Zaroonand clicked a picture on his phone of his back and show it to Armaan.
Armaan's jaw dropped when he saw the lipstick mark on hisshirt and he didn't take more than seconds to tracing whose lips were they.
He crushed his jaw but Zaroon pulled his leg, "Tumharaserious case", and giggled at which he gave him a deadly glare and left thecabin.
Locker Room,
"You're looking gorgeous Shilpa", Gunjan gave her acompliment when Armaan entered the locker room, both the girls turned to checkwho was there.
Armaan gave a smile to Gunjan, "Dr. Gunjan can you pleaseleave us alone, I have to discuss something with her"
"Yes Sir you can, akele mein", she giggled and while leavingshe turned to wave her hand she too witnessed the lipstick mark and couldn'tcontrol her laughter which Armaan noticed.
"So Dr. Shilpa!!", Armaan gave a sarcastic smile to herwhile she didn't take time to understand what he wanted to say.
"Armaan wo! Let me clear, maine pehle hi bike pe bethne semana kia tha ab ho jata hai", She tried to reason.
He came forward, gave her a deadly glare and crossed hisarms on his chest, which made Shilpa conscious she was about to say somethingwhen he interrupted, "Tum ladkiya make up use hi kyu karti ho...itni buri lagtiho kya?", he taunted her.
Her mouth remained open in an O shape, "You! And why do youboys ride the bike so fast...ab mark lag gaya to lag gaya", she too taunted.
"And because of that mark all are glaring me ... Ghoor rahehain...they are laughing at me from nurse to doctors...just ...", he stops himselfand continued showing a finger towards him, "Just because of that mark and YOU"
Shilpa bit her lower lip to control her laughter when heclasped his fingers on her face, "Oh madam! Kya karu main in weird looks sebachne ke lie...doosri shirt bhi nahi hai", which forced her to burst in laughterand he couldn't continue himself, what he did, just looking at her withoutblinking his eyes.
"Hahah! Oh poor Dr. Armaan Malik...Sanjeevani ka maalik", sheclasped his fingers in Armanish style which took him to senses and he said,"Haso mat and tell me what I should I do now to protect myself from these weirdlooks", an shook his head.
Shilpa blinked her eyelashes thrice and uttered, "Theirlooks are weird, but the solution is simple", she turned towards his locker andsaid.
"Simple there is nothing simple in this", but before hecould continue she grabbed his lab coat and helped him to wear it so the markcan hide and her simple idea forced him to smile.
"See simple", she look at him with glittering eyes.
"Hmm.. so simple", he agreed looking into her eyes.
In the night,
Armaan entered the house blabbered, "Bahut bhukh lag rahi hai. I hate lateduties"
But the same time the condition of sick daddu hit his mind,"Shoot! Khana bhi banana padega", and when he opened the door with his keys hefound daddu having dinner when his eyes fell on him he get surprise and said,"Who has told you to cook in ill health?"
"No one", daddu replied.
"Then why did you"
"Calm down my boy. Mene nahi banaya", daddu winked in a lowtone.
"Then who did", he asked.
Daddu coughed and uttered, "Subah wo haseena aayi thi na,what was her name, haan Shilpa, she has cooked the food"
"Pehle to ye haseena haseena band karo and tell me how is itpossible? I mean how can she cook when she was in hospital", he scolded dadduand asked the reason.
"Oh Mr. bhul gaye she had a half day", he said.
"To islie half day chahiye tha use", armaan blabbered.
"Yes, because, my company is the best", he winked which forced Armaan to chuckle,"Nahi sudharne wale tum", at which daddu nodded in agreement.
They both laughed and Armaan said, "your medicine time"
"Yes and your medicine?", daddu said.
"Mujhe kya hua hai", Armaan strangely asked.
"Aham! Pyar hua...ikrar hua hai?", he said first two wordsand ended with a question mark.
"Now don't start again", Armaan warned dramatically.
"I'm going to get a shower, bahut bhookh lagi hai...", and hewas about to left for his room but took two steps backward and threatened, "Akeclass lunga", and left , with his departure daddu smiled, "Pyaar to huahai...ikrar ka pata nahi in dono ko hua hai ya nahi", and widened his smile shaking his head.
