Mode-1, Mode-2!

Chapter-3:

I'm an idealist. I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way.

Carl Sandburg

When I came back with some soft, easy food, he simply exploded.

"Where is my 'Chai'?

"Sir, The doctor said-"

"The doctor said I'm all right and I can get out of here in an hour!"

"Er... Of course you are all right and-"

"Where's Chottu?"

He seemed thinking Chottu was better than me to handle.

"Sir, he is in the office now. If you need I'll-"

"No! I can see him in the office!"

"But-"

His eyebrows knitted together and he started thinking something.

'Don't confuse him! It won't do him any good!' the doctor's words rang in my ears.

"Right, we can see him in the office!"

I realized that my lips had uttered those words out, after a moment.

"Pay the bill and come!"

He said and started wearing his boots.

I escaped from there and knocked the doctor's door down.

"I couldn't console him doctor! We can still give him rest in the office!"

"No, get him busy with something, harmless, if he can get rest in work!"

.~.

"Sir, please wait here! I'll get the vehicle!"

He gave me one intense stare that I could forget in an eternity.

"I- I mean... I'll wait here while you get the vehicle?..."

"Where are my keys?"

"Here!"

I handed over the keys as he smiled at me affably.

I doubted that whether his behavioral change was a drama or he was behaving like this indeed, for if he needed a thing then this amnesia was not coming to the front row.

"What are you going to do here, standing alone? Come with me!"

He took my hand and marched me towards the parking lot.

"And I think nurses make you feel nervous, don't they?"

"Just the reverse!"

He pushed me in to the vehicle as I started worrying, 'Oh, God! The doctor didn't tell me whether he can ride a vehicle. Is it coming under the category of selective amnesia?'

Suddenly the fact dawned on me that no matter what the doctor said, he would ride the vehicle, at any case!

.~.

I realized just today that he got skills in driving, while I sat beside him with doubts in mind!

I started messaging them as I relaxed in my seat.

I typed the rules first and then the instructions.

I got a reply immediately.

'Set a case? What non-sense!'

'We are on our way to the office!' -I messaged again.

And thought that would do the magic.

"What's it Shree?"

He asked from the wheel.

"Sir, just checking!"

"Checking what?"

"Mm.. the score?- The score!"

I decided fast.

"To check the score, why should you press the buttons frantically?"

I was blinking literally.

"I know you are playing games, Shree!"

How could he know everything before I started finishing it?

"Sir, actually-"

"Which one this time, Titanfall or BioShock Infinite?"

'Oh, he was telling about the real games!'

"Car race!"

I grinned.

"I know in our job we've to do something to ease out the tension, once in a while!"

'Just for two days, isn't it? I know!'

I thought, looking at him.

.~.

When we reached the office, the scene before us was neither pleasant nor welcoming.
