The next day,

Sai couldn't concentrate on anything as her mind replayed the previous day's incident repeatedly leaving her breathless and with flushed face. Aniket was almost chasing her with a syringe thinking that she is very sick.

Little did he know... She was love sick.

During her regular rounds, she was a lil excited to knock on Virat's door. Once setting her hair and dress properly and making sure she was decent.... And maybe, beautiful. She entered Virat's room only to gasp in shock.... Once again. The entire Chavan clan were looking at her as she stared at them awkwardly.

This non-verbal exchange continued for few minutes until Bhavani broke the silence.

"See.... We don't need any entertainers now... You can lea.." Before she could complete, Sai gasped in opposition.

"Aunty... Am..."

"She is a doctor Kaku." Samrat spoke for her. Everyone looked at her with surprise while she was confused.

She doesn't look like doctor.... Even a percent? Then why the hell everyone is looking at her in surprise?!

"Um.... I can bring my certificates if you want" Sai suggested slowly.

"No need. But why did you lie that day...." Bhavani asked seriously. Sai cursed her fate for the interrogation and judgementive stares she has been receiving for past 10 minutes.

After some minutes on interrogation and when they were finally sure that She is indeed a doctor, they let her check him. On the other side, Virat was fidgeting on his bed with anticipation and cursed the matriarch mentally for the interrogation his woman was subjected too.

"Ahem... So Mr. Chavan" she called him in a formal and professional tone as she inspected his hand. He looked at the slight blush and heaving breaths of her and grinned widely leaving everyone in confusion.

"Can you move your hand? Is there any discomfort?" She asked as she checked the report.

"Slight pain.... Otherwise am good." He replied. She lifted her head from the health chart and looked at him, he grinned slyly and winked at her making her gasp audibly.

"Is everything okay?" Ashwini asked worriedly.

"Um... Yes... Everything is okay. Don't worry! Don't worry! No need to worry... Everything is fine." She babbled.

"Sai, why are you repeating the same words again and again?" Samrat asked cheekily earning a punch from Pakhi who was signalling him to stay silent.

"Ask your brother to stop bullying me. Otherwise am gonna punch him hard on his face" she muttered angrily to Virat.

"Stop teasing her Jeeva." Virat ordered.

"Ohhhh okay Shiva." Samrat said dramatically.

"Hey! What's wrong with Godu? Why is he being Cranky?"

"Mujhe kya pata?" Samrat acted nonchalant.

But, can mother's eye miss anything? SHe saw her not-so-innocent godu flirting and winking at her. While she was trying hard not to blush. She finally heaved a sigh of realisation! Her son was straight. With the way he never showed interest in any girls, a thought grew in her head that he might be a gay. Not that she had issues with that.... Infact she was the only progressive elder in the family of archaic thought. But she was in confusion.... Now finally her doubts had been cleared. She grinned and whispered the same to Samrat who burst out laughing.

"Is there something funny?" Virat asked seriously. Samrat shook his head trying to control his giggles. Once done with his checkup, Sai walked towards the door, she sneakily turned to catch a view of him. He grinned and winked at her. She turned and slammed herself to the door scraming outta the place.

"Careful!!" Virat shouted from the room.

Once the elders left, the younger chavans made themselves comfortable in the room.

"Sai is beautiful na....?" Karishma asked cheekily.

"Is that even a question? My Sai is always gorgeous." He said dreamily. A sharp realisation struck him when he realised he called her "My Sai" in front of these guys.

"Ahem... Ahem... Is there anything we should know Devarji?" Pakhi asked cheekily. Virat realised that the cat is outta the bag and decided to reveal everything from their first meeting to now, barring the incidents of romantic encounters initiated from him.

Next day,

Virat was at his room watching TV. Sai entered with a grin, but soon after another knock disturbed them. A young woman,around 30's looking extremely gorgeous and stylish entered His room. Her face was laced with worry, but Sai's eyes were stuck in her waist length gorgeous hair which she dyed in teal.

"Nisha?" Virat asked in surprise. Nisha was Virat's friend from college days. She, sunny and Virat were friends and Sunny always had his eye on her.. Since, Nisha wanted to pursue her passion she moved to abroad and returned a month back. A get together was long overdue. But he didn't expect her at this moment, at hospital.

"How are you Virat?" She asked, her eyes brimming with tears as she rushed to hug him. Sai gasped in outrage.

"You can't hug the patient mam. His hand is injured" a strict voice broke his reverie and she scooted back.

"Am so sorry! Are you okay? Are you hurt?" She checked his arms.

"Umm... Excuse me?" Sai pulled her to the other side.

"Who are you?" Nisha asked in confusion.

"Am the doctor here. So it is my duty to check the patient. So can you please get out?"

"Excuse me?!"

"I mean... Can you please move to the other side?" Sai asked in a dramatic tone, her words dripping with sarcasm.

"Oh okay." She moved to the other side. Sai's eyes were stuck on this woman watching every movement of hers. She saw this woman twirling her hair and she burned in jealousy. She felt miserable about her terrible hair fall.

"Excuse me. You can't twirl your hair here." She ordered. Literally.

"Why not?!" Nisha asked in confusion.

"Your hair may have dangerous bacteria and this is a highly sanitized area."

"But you let your hair free?" Nisha tried to protest.

"Who's the doctor here?"

"You....."

'So who knows it better?"

"You...."

"You got your answer" Sai replied confidently.

A few minutes later, Virat started coughing slightly, before Sai could comprehend, Nisha took the glass from table and filled it with water and forwarded it to Virat holding his head and feeding him.

Sai turned red.

"You can't give him water." Both Nisha and Virat looked at her in shock.

"Sai? But why?" Virat asked kn confusion

"Who's the doctor here?"

"You..." Both chorused.

"You got your answer" she said angrily. Nisha couldn't understand a single word. While realisation struck Virat.

She. Is. Jealous.

"Sunny informed me, Viru..." Nisha started.

"Viru?!" A shrill voice broke their conversation, while Sai looked scandalised.

"Is something wrong?" Nisha asked curiously.

"Nothing...." Sai murmured as she continued looking at the chart. Virat oh-so-loved the pretty green eyed monster his woman became and he absolutely enjoyed. They continued conversing while Sai stared at them with a stoic face.

Nisha held his hand trying to comfort him.

"You can't hold his hand." Sai ordered.

"Now what's wrong mam? I can't touch my hair, feed him water or touch him??"

"Who is the doctor here?" Sai asked... Yet again.

"You."

"Who knows about medical, better?" She asked yet again

"You...." Nisha affirmed.

"You got your answer mam. And please wear your mask. This is a highly sanitized place." Sai instructed.

"But this isn't ICU?" Nisha asked in confusion.

"Who's the doctor here?" Sai started again while Nisha went mad in confusion.

Virat was explaining how he was shot, while Nisha was biting her nails in fear.

"You can't bite your nails here..." Sai instructed.. Yet again.

"But...?"

"Who's the doctor here?" She asked yet again.

They stayed for a while and Sai made sure, that she will leave As soon as possible. He grinned at Sai's blooming face when Nisha left the ward.

"I will meet you in the evening.... Bye." She grinned and walked towards the door.

"Jaldi hai kya.....?"
