Roshni's POV

We just came back from the shopping. I wanted to wear a scarf before going put but he didnt let me do so. He said that we should acceptt the every fact and move on. He said that I am pretty despite of the burn mark and I really am.

When we went to the mall, a bunch of glares were disturbing me. I just looked at his eyes and he calmed me down through his eyes. I must say, only he has this power.

I am lucky that I have atleast the doctor, who gives me confidence. But what about those girls who dont even get a mental support? Even I have also understand the issue of my parents. He didnt said so but I know that they dont want me now. My doctor has high hopes with me and I wont let him down. I wont question him anymore. I know he does the best for me, always.

He went out for some work. This farm house is so big to handle. I saw a maid came today morning, did the dusting and left. He cooked for me today and now I am thinking to cook something for him. I should atleast thank him for what he did, what he does for me.

I am now in the kitchen and I know how to make delicious food. My mother taught me so.
I miss her!

Aman's POV

We returned from the shopping and hospital staffs called me and asked me to perform a surgery this late. Its 12 now, I already informed her and told her to order something for her. First went this way and I dont how I will manage the other days. A doctor life is not easy and my girl needs to understand that. Hope she wont me mad at me.

Wait a second! My girl? Why I am calling her so. And why would she needs to umderstand? She is just a patient and I have started imagining shits. What she will think of me if she gets to know that I am getting these kinda thoughts? Oh,Aman, she is already broke,, dont you dare to annoy her more!

I am ringing the door bell. What the fuck is she doing? Why she isnt opening the door? I am getting tensed as hell.

And finally, she opened the door.

Aman: Kahan thi ap , Roshni?

Saying the line, I huggged her tightly.

Roshni: Doctor, its okay. Dam ghut raha!

I hurrily left her.

Roshni: Itna jor se koun pakad ta hai?

I am now in tears. Unintentionally I did wrong.

Aman:I am sorry. Main waisa nahi hun..Main bas tensed tha aur isliye maine aise pakad liya. Matlab mujhe bohot tension horahi thi. Aise patients kabhi kabhi khudko.. Main rok nahi paya bas-

Roshni: Baki sab patients ke saath bhi ap aise hi karte ho? Unki aise hi care karte ho?

And I stopped. I was a good doctor indeed but I never cared for someone like this. I did everything for my patients but what I am doibg for Roshni is differennt. Maybe she doesnt know but I know.

Aman:Thaka hua hun yaar..

Saying this, I barged inside. I can feel her stare on me but I couldnt answer her question, I couldnt.

I took a bath and went down to check on my girl.

Aman:Roshni? Khana manga liya na ap..ne..

And I saw that the table was full of dishes and they looked delicious.

Roshni:Umm yes, I ordered but sird samaan and I wanted to make something by myself.

Aman:Itni mehnat karne ki kya jarurat thi..Ap bas 10 din pehle coma se uthi aur itna sara. Jarurat nahi thi Roshni..

Roshni is already in tears. Oh shit I messed up again!

Aman:I am..

Roshni:Mujhe maaf kardijiye. Mujhe samajhna chahiye tha ki apko mere haath ka khana nahi hoga. Aur mere haath se kyun khayenge ap .. Main toh gandi hochuki hun na..

Aman:Itna majboor matt kijiye ki main apna apaa kho dun! (Tightening my fists)

Roshni: Sahi toh bol tahi hun na?itta pyaar se banaya maine aur ap.. khair ap order karlo, I am going to sleep.

Before she could go, I clutched her hand.

Aman:Serve koun karega khana mujhe?

Roshni: Order kya kar bhi diya apne.. Itti jaldi agaya?

Aman:Itna sara jo khana banaya apne yeh toh mujhe hi khana hoga na?

Roshni:Ap khayenge?

She looked excited.

Aman: Kya kya banaya apne ..Aiye dekhte hai.

She happily served all the foods and I liked all of them. She was happy when I praised. She just needed the confidence.

Roshni's POV

Next day, around 10 pm:

I am sitting before the mirror. I used to have long hair but that day, they burnt those and maybe this is why doctor cut the rest. I dont like short hair.

I know that the society wont be accepting me so easily. They have made it a common issue but its not a common issue. Its a crime which they need to get straight in their minds. They did wrong and they are to be blamed, not me.

Asmaan chuna toh abhi bhi baaki reh gaya hai, main udhna nahi chhodungi!

Just then, I heard a knock. It must be him.

I opened the door.

Aman: Good morning. I got your breakfast.

Roshni:Sorry, late hogayi main..

Aman:Its okay. Ham late spyein the kal itna sara pressure gaya.. Andar aun?

Roshni:Apka hi ghar hai *giggles*

He came in. I started eating as I was hungry. I can feel the stare at me but I can look back at him.

Aman:Roshni.. I brought something for you.

Roshni: Umm kya?

Aman:Actually there is a beauty contest and I filled the form on behalf of you.

My jaw dropped listening to my doctor.

Roshni: Sorry what?

Aman:Yes, ap hissa le rahi hai.

Roshni:Meri surgery.. aur yeh competition toh

Aman:Roshni.. Pehle jaiye haath dho ke aiye.

I went to the basin and washed my hands quitely. Then I sat down beside him. He held my hands. By God, whenever he touches me, a ceurrent flows through my spinal cords. There is no vulgarity in his touch and I love whenever he holds my hand, hugs me.

Aman: Roshni, ap khoobsoorat hai. Allah ka banaya har banda khoobsoorat hai. Han unn ladko ke wajah se thoda sa jjal gaya but it will be fine soon. Aur apka mann apke bahari khoobsoorti se aur zyada khoobsoorat hai!

His statements got me tears. How can someone be so perfect with his talks?

Aman: Aur iss competition mein ap hissa lerahi hai. Agar wo log apki khoobsoorti ko samjh nahi payein, toh unka loss! You are just- PERFECT!

Roshni: Apko aisa lagta hai?

Aman:Nahi mujhe aisa lagta nahi.

Roshni: Toh?

It almost got me into tears. Tears of- SADNESS.

Aman:Main sure hun iss barein mein ,100% sure !

Roshni:Jahh!

My traitor tears betrayed me. They fell down!

Roshni: Rula diya mujhe!

Aman:Arey rotey nahi. Abhi toh bohot taiyari karni hai. Accha main yesab rakhke ata hun pehle. Phir thodi deir discuss karke mujhe hospital bhi jana hai!

He was about to got but I couldnt stop myself from holding him back.

Aman's POV

She held my hand stopping me.

Roshni: Thank you, doctor. Thank you for everything. Thank you for standing by my side when my own parents abandoned me.

Aman:Roshni ap ..wo..

Roshni: Buddhu dikhti hun apko? Unko ana hota toh abhi tak mere saath hotey par wo ayein hi nahi. Aur shayad kabhi ayenge bhi nahi , mujhe wo log chahiye bhi nahi!o

I gave her a proud smile. She smiled at me back.

I am proud of my girl!

Writer's note- Inner beauty is the most important thing which makes a person perfect. We shouldnt be thinking about the outer beauty as its gonna fade away with time. We often get upset with what we dont have or lost but we should be happy with what we still have.
