" Okay guys. I need the reports by next week. The Dean is at my neck!" Dr. Ratna Tiwari. The senior gynecologist said as her juniors, Vaishali Joshi, Rama Tiwari, Samatha Nandan nodded their heads and left the room.

"Dean is such an ass. Always pressuring us." Samatha mumbled as they walked out.

"Oh stop at least when we are in premises of hospital. All walls have ears here!" Rama said shaking her head still smiling at what Samatha said.

"Yeah right!" Samatha rolled her eyes cursing their Dean in her head multiple times.

"What are you thinking Vaishu?" Rama asked as she saw Vaishali fidgeting her phone. " Another proposal it seems. My mom is asking me to get home fast and she have something to discuss." Vaishali mumbled.

It's not she don't like the idea of getting married, it's just that she doesn't have it in herself to get married cause the last time she said 'yes' for marriage it ended up getting cancelled after engagement because the guy's parents didn't want a working woman as a daughter-in-law, even though their son is a doctor himself, he claimed that a working woman would not complete his demands in marriage.

She wondered, whether they didn't know it prior but she made sure that she told him in their first meet itself. People and their hypocrisy!

"All the best! And Vaishu just because one man in the world turned out to be an asshole, doesn't mean the whole man population are! And what if you are getting now a better man? Who knows what destiny has planned!" Rama said and Samatha too agreed on her statement.

Twenty eight years old, unmarried, working. The taunts her parents hear from her relatives are way too much. She never liked them anyways but since the day her engagement broke which was six months ago, there isn't a function where she is not judged.

Many asked her to stop her job get married and settle down but she didn't work her ass of, spent so many days and nights reading and preparing for exams, overcame all her fears just so that one day a guy can come on the name of a sacred bond and ruin all her hard work.

If they want a woman who can stay in home and look after his home and him she suggested that guy to get married a house help girl for so that she would always stay at home and look after him!

Her mother straight away asked them to get out and never show their face again. She always had her back so do her father. The lone child she is to them she was treasured like anything.

"Okay babes. Bye!" Vaishali said coming back to her enthusiasm self and Samatha and Rama just shook their head smiling at her.

They already are married and Rama is expecting a child too. Samatha is still on honeymoon phase as she got married the last month only.

Vaishali sat on her Activa 6g scooty her father gifted. Vaishali waved them bye as they drove.

She took a breath and adjusted her helmet.

She started driving and is taking turns when needed.

She was thinking something when suddenly her Activa got into a crash with a Royal Enfield classic 350.

"Oh shit!" She cursed before stopping and got down of her scooty and looked at the man in front.

He have a helmet which he removed, he looked handsome, that's not the worst but the dress he wore is.

He is a police!

"Did you get hurt?" She heard his voice.

She shook her head in negative. "I am so sorry sir. I didn't see your vehicle coming, I should have honked." Vaishali rambled.

"Yes you should have miss. That's why we suggest to drive with open eyes." He said and Vaishali bent her head heat creping her neck.

"I am sorry." She said looking away.

"Where are you heading in a hurry? Show me your driver's license." He asked and she did.

She saw his face go from frown to shock to some... Mischief?

"Vaishali Joshi huh?" He asked and she nodded her head as yes.

"A doctor." He mumbled looking at her ID that she wears always. She again nodded.

"Come to meet me tomorrow at Coffee Day. Else I won't give your license!" He said and her eyes widened.

"Sir! Please. I can't tomorrow I have to.."

"You have to what?" He asked raising his perfect eyebrows up and she nodded her head in no.

"I will come but this is so wrong!!" She said with a scowl.

"Good luck tomorrow Miss. I will be waiting around this time tomorrow at Coffee day tomorrow. We might have some serious things to discuss!" He said now sitting on his bike.

He waved her as she sat back on her scooty.

She glared at him and they drove past each other.

One have a serious scowl on their face while the other is grinning like a fool.

As soon as Vaishali reached her home she went to her father.

She explained what happened and her father thought deeply.

"Fine I won't tell your mother about this. But, have you found his name?" He asked and Vaishali shook her head in no.

"What a dumb kid I have raised." He muttered dryly making Vaishali whine.

"Papaaaaa" she cried when he laughed a bit.

"Fine fine. Go and just bring back your license. If anything, just give me call. Café Coffee Day is not so far from our home you know." He said sighing and Vaishali nodded.

"You haven't bathed! Have you?! How many times I have to tell you to go to a bath straight away you stinking little stupid. Now leave!" Her mother Shyamala Devi arrived with a spatula in her hand.

"Oh my god! I am leaving ma!" Vaishali said running to her room.

As soon as she is in her room she breathed out thinking about the creepy officer she have to meet tomorrow.

She took a refreshing bath and wore her pajamas.

She joined her parents for dinner and after that got back to her room to read some books when her mother came to her room.

"Finally. What is the reason that you asked me to come home fast?" Vaishali said sitting beside her mother.

"Day after tomorrow, your papa's friend. Do you remember Suresh uncle?" She asked and Vaishali nodded her head remembering them from her childhood.

"They are coming." She said.

"Aren't they shifted to the other city cause uncle got transferred?" She asked.

"Yes. Now they are back cause their younger son's posting is here. I heard he is police officer too." She said and Vaishali's mind drifted to that handsome yet creepy police officer.

"So? What has that to do with me and coming home early?" She asked and her mother just shrugged.

"His younger son is single." Her mother reasoned.

"So?"

"He is handsome too!"

"So???"

"He can make you happy-"

"And?"

"If you say all these 'sooo?? And???' Once again watch me marry you to a gorilla and send you to the forest forever cause you belong there." Her mother said dryly and she gaped at her.

"Why would you do that?"

"Cause I highly doubt when I was resting your father misplaced my baby girl and brought a junglee girl like you!" Her mother said.

"Well, too bad. You have to bare with this junglee girl for rest of your life!" Vaishali retorted.

"Ahh! What can I do now? Now that I raised you, I can't help." She said and left asking her to sleep well.

Vaishali shook her head and laid on her bed. Closing her eyes the handsome cop face flashes in front of her eyes. She sighed and that night went with so many vivid dreams, one among them with the handsome cop!
