Laksh made his way to the restaurant, he was sober and driving the car wasn't a big deal for him. But his mind was drifting away, always, when he saw a woman with long waved brown hairs he was logging to see her, "Uff what is wrong with me?" Laksh hits with his palm on the steering wheel, "why I want to see her again? I'm not in love I will never be in love, I don't trust in love it's just a hormonal issue nothing real you can touch." His mind was searching for the logic, but love isn't easy to describe and to call it illogic isn't correct either.

Ragini and Rachel were checking on the patients individually, both were busy in their work schedule, "I hope Abbu could repair the locker of the bracelet, should I call him?" Ragini was talking to herself about her friendship symbol with Ayesha, she can't imagine to lose it ever again, the moment she didn't felt it on her wrist made her incomplete and restless. This is something, which we have created, nothing can replace it. You don't know when time changes, but there are some precious things, which will never leave you.

Laksh had reached the restaurant on time, a waiter took him to his table, which was exactly in the middle of the restaurant, he couldn't be unnoticed by anyone. Damn it, what stupid place. Who had the idea of a table in the middle of the room? Like really everyone is watching me and I'm waiting for a stranger, shit. The only point which could calm him, was the view, like the other's he had a benefit of the place, he could keep his eyes on the door. Umm maybe I can check her out first and if I don't like what I see, I can leave making an excuse. I'm good in it. He was praising himself a smirk appears on his face, which immediately vanished as the waiter asked him, "Sir would you like to order something?" He was standing there, with the device in his hand ready to take the order, Laksh glares at him, "for now only water. Thank you." He was annoyed the waiter disturbed him, he didn't had thought of the excuse and the door opens.

Laksh froze, his gaze couldn't shift as he saw his angel. Ragini walked in, behind her was a woman and both were talking to each other, Laksh smiles. Look at me I'm here you can't miss me, cause I'm in the central. His smile turned to a pout, he narrowed his brows and moves his eyes, he saw her sitting near the window. Okay maybe this is her favourite local, she got a better table than me and I'm a well known doctor. Well not this much famous she didn't recognised me. Uff...

The main door opens, he didn't looked at the direction, the distraction was sitting behind him. The mobile phone in his left hand and a drink on his right hand, he was secretly observing her.

*Hem* he heard the noise of a cleaning throat, he looked up from his mobile phone and gave a mischievous smirk to the woman waiting to gain his attention, "Hi I'm Shalini you must be Laksh, right?"

Laksh put the glass down and stood up, "right, Hi Shalini." They shook hands and Laksh offered her the seat opposite to him.

"Umm Ragini I think I will take a salad, what will you order."

"Pasta." Both closed the menu card and waited for their waiter, "as usual?" The waiter asked and both nodded with a smile at him, "thank you." He left and they talked about the day.

"Ragini I really wanted to be a part of the operation, he is a well-known doctor, his technic is different from other's."

"I know Rachel, I hope we get a chance to see his work live. I want to learn from him too," she got a call, "sorry it's my Papa."

Rachel smiles, "did I ever stopped you, go."

Ragini nods, "thanks." She left the restaurant to attend the call.

"Haan Abbu, everything is fine?" She is always concerned about her father and his health.

"Haan Ragini all is fine, you left your bracelet on the table next to my breakfast. I saw it and I wanted to let you know, it's repaired."

A smile warm and friendly, "saach {really}?"

"Why would I lie to my princess. I got the locker exchanged and now you can wear it again. Happy."

"Abbu is that even a question to ask? Of course I'm happy, thank you so much." They talked a little longer, she saw the waiter going to their table, "Abbu my lunch has arrived, we will talk at home. Allah Hafiz."

"Okay Beta, Khuda Hafiz." They ended the call and Ragini reentered the restaurant, Laksh saw her smiling face. Oh someone is very happy, has she finally seen me?

No, again she just ignored him and walked straight to her place, she sat next to her friend and they started with their lunch.

"Laksh how was the operation you had today, I mean successful or any complications?"

Laksh frowns. Why hasn't she talked to my sister again? She would have known that I haven't done this operation today. I don't want to spent my time with a person not of my interest, when there is someone I badly want to share my feelings with. Wait hold what!

Laksh mind was talking too much, he isn't used to it to have self conversations about other's. He uses his inner monologues only for himself no one else ever had a place there before and it won't change.

"No sorry, I cancelled it today, yesterday my friend's cousin got married and I don't wanted to risk anything. It's my responsibility to make sure all goes right, but if the doctor isn't on 100 Percent then there is no need of an operation."

Shalini nodded, "right, you know I thought you are someone with a girlfriend, but then your sister told me you are single, I was ready to meet you. To be honest I had seen you on a cover and read an article about you."

"An article about me? Wow must be very interesting to know more about me, which magazine and contents it had of?"

Shalini took her handbag, a Louis Vuitton.

"Here just look you are called to be a playboy and you are good in your work, but selfish too. You don't like it to be compared to others, but you like to defame them."

Laksh smiles, "waiter," he lifts his hand to call the waiter.

"What happen?" Shalini asked and Laksh just shook his head, "nothing aren't you hungry?"

"Oh, yes I am." She confirmed and Laksh stood up, "I would like to pay for the drink I had and you heard the lady, she is hungry, on my cost." He gave the waiter the money, "and if she doesn't want then keep it as a big tip." Laksh left and sat in his car, he was hell angry on his sister.

"Call Rhea." He said into Siri

"Ragini come break is over." Rachel paid for both they usually do this one pays for the other one.

"Hi Bhaiya how was the date?!"

"Stupid, she is a reporter. Dare you to interfere in my personal life again, enough of this dating thing. I can find a girlfriend on my own." He ended the call before his sister could apologise.

Ragini and Rachel entered the hospital and Laksh was numb, "she works here?!"
