Chapter 4.
January 14, 2016.
Suman:
A week had passed after I joined the hospital. Everything had been smooth.
So had been this one guy, who I was afraid, I was getting too close with, too soon.
Shravan Malhotra.
The great, great paediatric.
The handsome, gorgeous man.
I smacked myself mentally and focussed on the case I was reading of a poor little 8 year old boy.
But, Does he know his smile is killer?
"SHRAVAN." I groaned.
Never had it happened that I day dreamt of a guy. Never. But this rare beauty would not let me be in peace.
Attraction was one really, really crazy thing. And I was feeling it abundantly.
"Oh, why are you taking my name with such frustration?"
Shit.
I turned around and the man of my lovely dreams was standing right here.
I really have to get my shit straight.
"Uh. Um." I stammered.
Think fast, suman. Think fast, I mentally murmured to mself but to no avail.

Shravan:
She looked frustrated.
And let me define what sort of frustration she was feeling.
It was all over her face.
Best described as.. As if I have sexually denied her or something and that thought made me smirk as well as go all 'duuude shut up' to my ownself.
"Tell me?"
I took a chair next to her and demanded an answer again and she still looked baffled and..caught.
Caught red handed.
Why do I really think she is sexually frustrated?
Alright, I'll admit here, I do have a lot of experience with women but when it comes to this girl, I seem to be as blank as a fresh sheet of paper.
And that kind of amuses my ownself.
What does she do to me to make me so clueless out of nowhere?
I kept my hand over hers and I couldn't have mistaken how she reacted.
It was very quick but I saw her swallow a lump in her throat, as if my holding her hand caused her to gulp her own words.
I also couldn't have mistaken the goosebumps, so visible on her arms.
And, that remarkable nervous lip bite.
Oh bloody well.
I am so right this time.

Suman:
He is smirkimg.
That ..that.. Ugh.
I don't even have words to define him at this minute.
Somehow, somehow I just know that he's figured out the answer to his own question.
I lick my lips and train my eyes on the rim of my coffee mug.
"Suman"
His voice was so husky and something tickled in my ear. Which was because he was leaning over my ear.
Oh, god.
"Is it what I think it is?" I could feel his lips move against my skin and I could not, in no way, help myself from closing my eyes and taking in his words. His hand still overlapped mine and slowly his fingers were clasping in the gaps between my fingers.
"We..ah, are in cafeteria, Shravan." I forced myself to be rationale because losing myself in this moment was very alluring but I better not.

Shravan:
I was now very, very sure about what she was so frustrated about.
What she doesn't know was how frustrated I felt as well. How many times have I gone through the same torture as she was probably going about right now.
"Meet me in my cabin before you leave for home." I whispered to her, softly and left the canteen.
I was sure, she was dazed. As much, or maybe more than, as I was.
Suman:
He knows.
He so knows everything.
I am doomed.
Good going, Suman!
