Kartik's pov

I woke up early in the morning and got ready for hospital. I am a doctor,a cardiologist.. so I should go early. Right?

I paved my way towards my hospital and started working. Now,it was time for a break.

It was a hell tiring day.

I went to canteen and had my food. I sat there for sometime. Just then I saw a girl sitted with a lady. Both were whispering and were laughing.

That girl was serenely beautiful.!!

Her laugh was like a music.

And her smile did something to my heart.

I was lost in her.

A smile adorned my face while seeing her.

How can someone look so beautiful and cute!!

Just then I was called for an emergency. I had to go but her face,her smile didn't leave my mind.

After surgery,I went to canteen hoping that she didn't leave ...but my bad!!

She left..

A wave of sadness washed over me .

Will I be able to see her again??...This question hovered in my mind...but I didn't have any answer..

Few days passed,I didn't see her again..

I always waited for her in canteen hoping she will come today..she will come that day..but she didn't came.

After somedays,

I again waited for her. I don't know what was happening to me but I just wanted to see her smile,her laugh...

Just then I saw the same aunt. I looked sideways but couldn't see her. She was not there. I felt a pang of sadness in my heart.

That aunt sat for sometime, thinking something deeply and then was about to go but I went to her.

I couldn't let her go like this!
I want to meet her.

I talked to her about that girl. She gave me a weird look
obviously. I somehow convinced her.

She agreed to make me meet her. I thanked her. She went away giving her number so that she could inform me their place.

Next day,
I got ready to meet her and went to their home.

I entered inside and I could feel her.

I went inside and was welcomed by that aunt.

"Aap baithiye Main Naira ko lekr aati hu." She said. I nodded. Something felt odd.

Soon,I saw her descending the stairs. She was looking like a fairy. Simple yet elegant. I couldn't help but stare her. That aunt was supporting her all the way down.

She came and sat opposite to me. I looked at her. She was looking behind me.A weird feeling crept in my heart.

"Hi"I forward my hand for handshake.

"Hello" she said not shaking hands.

What's happening??

"Aapko kuch kaam h?"she asked.

What should I say now??

Ab?!  Kya krega tu Kartik...

Wo I wo..

Just then my phone rang.....

"Ek min"I said and attended call going away from there...I needed to be at hospital...

"Mujhe abhi jaana hoga,m baad m milta hu.."

"It's okay"she said smiling and my heart did some flip-flops seeing that beautiful smile.

I went from there and did the surgery...

Few days passed thinking about her...

I was longing for her company..I wanted to be with her..but my schedule didn't let me... finally it was Sunday...

We decided to meet in park..

She came with her aunt. I looked at her aunt requesting her to leave ...I wanted to talk to her alone.. Thankfully..she nodded and went away...

"Aapko kya kaam hai ?" She asked.

" Umm...Shuru se start krte h ...ok?"

"Ok"

"Kartik" I said forwarding my hand for handshake but she didn't shook hands. Again.

"Naira"she said..

I smiled....we were silent for sometime... didn't know what to say...

I decided to tell her about my feelings..I can't hold it.

"Naira"

"Haan.."she was looking in front.. she turned to me.

I took her hands in mine hesitantly. While a shiver ran down my spine. When I felt her soft hands in my hands. She stiffened when I held her hands.

"Mujhe tumhe kuch batana hai."I almost whispered.

"Boliye"

" Yaad h Tum ek din hospital ki canteen m aayi thi, apny aunty k saath has rhi thi..kuch baat kr rhi thi..I was also there Naira...or jab tumhe dekha na ...to bahut achha lga...aisa lga..ek baar tumse milu..tumse baat karu..jab se lekr abhi tak tumne mere dimaag ko nhi chodha..(chuckles) jab bhi kuch sochta hu..tumhi yaad aati ho..tumhari wo smile...I know ..You must be feeling weird...ki ek baar dekha..aur itna kuch.. but mujhe khud weird lg rha h..pr saath saath bahut acha bhi..jab bhi tumhare baare m sochta hu..unhi thoughts m kho jata hu... tumhare saath rehna chahta hu..kuch time spend krna chahta hu...pta ni mujhe kya hua h Naira...but I want to be with you...I am really sorry agar tumhe zara sa bhi uncomfortable feel hua ho toh meri baaton se...I said all this caressing her hands with my thumb...

I felt overwhelmed touching her.. talking to her...

She sighed.

"Kartik,mujhe jana h.." she said and my heart broke..

"Naira.."she stood up .and was about to go that I held her hands...

"Naira .. please aise mat kro.." she jerked my hand...and started to move..she misstepped and was about to fall down..and my heart sank there..but I saved her .

"Naira,tum thik ho.."I asked in a concern tone...I can't let anything happen to her...

"Haan... Kartik..pr..hum..nhi.."she said...and started breathing heavily.

"Naira.. Naira..araam se... Take deep breath .." she did the same... Then she relaxed...

"Ab bolo"

"Kartik hum nhi ek ..nhi ho skte..."

I understood what she meant..but why???

"Kyu Naira..kyu?".I asked ... worriedly.

"Tumhe nhi pta shayad..I am blind...m dekh nhi skti ...mujhe tum bhi nhi dikhayi de rhe.."she said..

And earth beneath me slipped..

I realised.. why she didn't shake hands...why her aunt was always there supporting her..

A tear escaped my eyes...

Not because..

we can't be together...

Who said...we can't be together
we can be and we will be together..

But for this..that such a pure soul is bearing this much..

She is indeed a pure soul..I can see through her eyes..

"Mai aur tum  hum ho skte h..Naira.. balki hoenge...but only if u are comfortable.."

"We can't be kartik...mai kuch nhi dekh skti...tumhe bhi nhi.." she said..tears rolling down her cheeks...I couldn't see her this vulnerable..

I took her in a bone-crushing hug..

"Pyaar k liye,dekhna zruri nhi hota..pyaar to dil se hota h...."

She looked up..her chin on my chest..

Our eyes met..but those eyes couldn't see me..see that love in my eyes which I have for  her ...but she can feel..my heart replied.. and I agreed..

Yes,I love her...

I realised just now...when she sobbed...her pain stabbed my heart..and that time I realised...it cannot be infatuation...I am in love with her..

"I love you Naira♥️" I confessed.

Her hold on me tightened..

That day,we sat hugging each other...lost in that moment...not thinking.. about future ..or anything..

💖💖💖

After some days

I helped Naira to sit in car. Then sat beside her on driver seat.

Held her one hand..and then started the car..

She  clutched my hand tightly..I knew she was scared.

Why wouldn't she??
Today is her surgery..

"Kartik" she called.

"Haan Naira"I said softly..

"Agar meri surgery successful nhi hui.. main waapis nhi dekh paayi ..toh"she said scared...

"Agar aisa hua bhi..toh bhi I will be with you...tumhara peecha nhi chodhunga main...kya kr skte h .. tumhe jhelna padega..mujhe..tch.."I said.

She chuckled..but after a moment of silence...

She asked,"kyu?"

Because I love you..I love you so much Naira"I confessed softly...

She side hugged me..

"I love you too Kartik..

And I looked at her as she confessed.

.maine tumhe kabhi dekha nhi h. Pr ye pta h tum zrur bahut handsome hoge..jiska itna saaf dil ho..wo kitna achha dikhta hoga... I love you..I love your heart ....I am in love with your voice,your heart..and you..tysm for coming in my life...main ab apni zindagi tumhare bina imagine nhi kr skti... please mujhe kabhi chod ke mt jana.."

I was overwhelmed by her confession..

"I won't Naira...I love you so much..I said and kissed her forehead.."

We soon reached hospital..I took her inside...

She was taken in Operation theatre..

"Please bhagwan..sab kuch accha Krna.. please ..Naira ko safe rakhna.."I prayed...

After 2hours...

"You can come Mr.kartik,dekhte h ki operation successful hua ki nhi.."

I walked in...my heart thumping in my chest..

I went in ...doctor removed dressing from her eyes...

She slowly opened her eyes..

I was so nervous...My heart was racing..

Our eyes met..and I could see twinkle in her eyes..her lips curved...

"Kartik,main tumhe dekh skti hu.."she said...and I was on cloud 9..

I hugged her ...letting happy tears flow..

Soon,we broke the hug..

She touched my face with her hands.. caressed my cheeks..happy tears rolling down our cheeks ..

Doctors took the cue ..and went out...

She was still caressing my face....she laughed for seconds..as she couldn't believe that moment..

I wiped her tears..

I kissed her forehead.. .we looked in each other eyes for a long time ... feeling the beauty of that moment...

Soon,our lips met...we kissed pouring our heart out..our happiness..our love...

That moment is still afresh in my heart...
I learnt one thing in loving Naira
That in love ..looks don't matter....we love each other's heart,each other's soul..

and one more thing that love is a blessing ♥️..
