"Oh, lucky . Great. You're here." nikhil said.

"Hey, man. What's up?" laksh said, after changing to his uniform. He was getting ready for his duty.

"Nothing really. Just got done giving some meds around." nikhil giggled, fixing the trays of medicine. "Have you seen the patient in 5017?" He asked, smirking as he clasped his hands.

How could laksh forget her? She has the most amazing smile ever. The plum lips worth a taste. And Don't even get him started with her eyes. "Why?" laksh asked, not to sound obvious.

"I went there to give her some meds and wow, she looks so damn hot." nikhil whispered. There were quietly talking about ragini.

Laksh giggled to hide his anger. Nikhil was right but he can't talk to him about her like that. She wasn't just a hot chick. She was a beautiful girl. A girl who deserves a gentleman. "Dude, back off. You wouldn't want to scare our patients away with your creepy likings."said laksh. While what he actually wanted to do was punch nikhil in the face for talking about ragini like that. But he was not quite sure why would he do that.. He came out of his thoughts because of nikhil.

"Well, you should see her. Then, you'll know what I'm talking about." nikhil giggled.

"Oh, I've seen her man. I was there when she was brought to the emergency room, operating room, transferred to a private room and the moment she woke up." laksh smiled and lean back on his chair with his hands locked behind his head. "She was a real life sleeping beauty."

Nikhil was looking at him. He looked like he was day dreaming and nikhil couldn't hold his laughter. "Let me guess. Are you her Prince Phillip?" nikhil laughed louder.

"Shut up." laskh jokingly smacked him on the arm as they both laughed. Their conversation got hold off when the buzzer monitor screen lit up. "5017" it read.

"Looks like it's your lucky day." nikhil said, smirking at laksh and he just smacked him again. He stood up, ready to go to the patient when nikhil teased him more. "Don't you dare kiss Sleeping Beauty yet!"

Xxx

Laksh exhaled for a bit, trying to calm the big grin on his face before knocking on the door. He raised his hand and knocked 3 times. Held the knob and opened the door. Laksh entered the room.

"Good afternoon, Miss..." He saw that the patient was sleeping. He moved closer to her and examined ragini's face. She was really beautiful. He couldn't stop smiling, remembering what nikhil and him talked about a few minutes ago. He noticed that her hair was covering her eyes, he was about moved it away with his hands until he realized something.

If she buzzed a couple of minutes ago, how can she be fast asleep right now? Laksh moved back a little and started to speak. "Are you fake sleeping?" He teased her with a bit louder voice.

Slowly, raginis straight lips was turning to a smile and she slowly opened her eyes and laughed out loud. "Gotcha!" She was laughing hard.

Laksh was confused yet he was holding off his laughter. "So... You called me... Just to prank me?"

Ragini's giggling self started to fade until her face became serious. "Are... Are you mad?"

"What?" He was surprised. "Uh, I mean.. No.. I don't know." laksh became more confused and giggled to himself. This made ragini smile.

"Haven't seen you in a while. Where have you been?" She asked.

"My schedule just didn't fit with your buzzes so..." He smiled. "Looks like you're a lot better now. You're smiling a lot."

"Thanks." She said and smiled.

"So... Anything else you need? Besides pranking?"

Ragini laughed. "I do need someone to talk to."

"I can dial up the phone for you. Just give the number of your friend..."

"I meant... I want someone to talk to. Maybe... We can talk?"

"You want to talk to me?" He asked, slightly blushing.

Ragini just nodded and smiled like a child.

"Uhm... Miss Gadodiya, it is against the rule for us nurses to stay in a patient's room for a long time." He placed his hands inside his pockets.

"ragini ... Call me ragini ."

"Okay... Uh, ragini . I'd love to but I have follow hospital rules. I'm sorry."

Ragini became a bit sad. She wanted to spend more time with him but she didn't want him to lose his job. "Okay..." She said with a low tone. "Will I still see you later?"

"Of course. Just buzz me when you need me." laksh smiled and turned around to leave when ragini spoke again.

"Buzzzzz!" She said, imitating the sound of the buzzer. Laksh stopped and turned back around.

Laksh giggled. "Yes?"

"See you later, laksh."

Laksh was surprised that she knows his real name. Maybe it was obvious cause the only names that can be shortened to lucky are either lakhwinder or laksh. "lucky for short." He smiled at her.
"I like laksh better." She smiled back and he just giggled before leaving.

Dinner time came and ragini was excited to see laksh again.
"Bon appétit!" laksh greeted with the best French accent he can and ragini laughed.

"Are we having French menu tonight?"

"Sadly, no. Just American Salad and chicken strips."

"I'm fine with that." She giggled. Laksh placed her food on the table and dragged it over her bed. He gave her the utensils and went to get her some drinks.

"Aren't you gonna help me eat?" She asked.

Laksh looked at her and smiled. "I was told you didn't like being fed. They told me you'd rather eat alone." He giggled.

"Well... I need help right now."
Laksh looked at her and smiled. He went closer to her.....
