Shravan felt lump at throat as nirmala had almost decided his wedding.. it's just a formality that he should meet the bride pre-wedding...

"Ma..."

With partial hope,he called her...

"Shravan beta...I know what you wanted to tell me... you love your profession a lot...you need to achieve more...you wanted to bring up the channel to higher-ups.... all I understand....but...that doesn't mean that you shouldn't marry... it's my duty to hand over my responsibilities to your wife..let me do it...so,no excuses this time..you go and meet her... remember...we have already fixed the wedding date too..."

Her voice was stern to convey the seriousness which never had happened before...

Shravan gulped hard....he didn't even took the mobile number she gave....he left the home with his DSLR camera... photography was his immediate mood changer..after all,he needed neutrality of mind to think and decide...

______________________________________

Since last  two hours,shravan was struggling and he couldn't forget the girl... eventually,he came to a conclusion that he could talk with the bride and cancel the wedding or at least he could postpone it probably...

    Sketching a pucca plan,he reached the place... getting down from the car,he looked up at the board with deep sigh...

  'city hospitals'

He walked to the reptionist...recalling the name nirmala had mentioned...

If he remembers it correctly,her name was Suman...

   Hearing the name,the receptionist pouted...

"Sir... can't you see some other doctors...? she's a peadiatric dentist...no other duty doctors are here as today is new year..."

So, she's a dentist...

Those informations  didn't make any difference in shravan...he just came there to meet her and to tell her that he was not interested in marriage...so,he nodded impatiently...

"Not a big deal...I can manage..."

Disgust and hate equally bursted out from him...

The poor receptionist hurriedly registered his datas and made him to wait...

Shravan waited at the lobby desperately and looked at the duty doctor's chart .He was shocked to find one more Dr.Suman at the list... The other Dr.suman was a clinical psychologist...

For a second,shravan got confused...which Dr.suman he had to meet...? While he was standing baffled,the nurse called him inside the chamber...

  Uncertain about the suman he had to meet,he decided to go with the situation and kept silent...

The nurse made him to sit at the front chamber and collected relevant dental history...

While doing so,there was a conversation between the doctor and the staffs...As there's no hard barrier, shravan could hear them clearly...

   "I wish my would be husband to be a good looking high profile man..."

As one of the nurses told,the others teased her and everyone narrated their own expectations regarding their wedding...

At a point,"Doctor.Suman ...you didn't say anything...?how about your lover boy?"

Someone asked and unknowingly shravan keened to Dr.suman's reply...

"No...yaar..I wish I could have my husband as my best friend...no other expectations..."

Her answer pricked shravan
.for a moment,he felt bad for what he's going to do with her wedding...

     After a while,the nurse made shravan to sit at the dentist's examination chair...

   Shravan closed his eyes as the light in front of him was too bright... more over,he was restless and wanted some breathing time...

   All of a sudden , fragrance of thousands of roses hit shravan...some sixth sense drove him to open his eyes...

Instantly,he opened his eyes and he couldn't believe that he's living the moment...

She...the girl who stole his heart...!!!

She sat beside him at the chair and wore the face mask...wearing the gloves,she pulled the instrument cart near her...

   She checked the datas...

"Mr.malhothra...open your mouth..."

Saying so,she began to examine the teeth...

Though her eyes were working on it's accord, it seemed that, they're staring at shravan...those eyes were engulfing him literally...her proximity and fragrance mesmerized him to heaven...

If she's the bride,I would be the happiest person in the world...

His mind flew without wings...

But...she doesn't even knew his name... what if, she's not the bride...?

The fear struck harder with shravan...
