Can You Mend My Broken Heart?

425 Stitching up the situation

She was a bit emotional, but she was firm with her decision. She could not bear to see more people getting hurt because of her.

With her head hung low as she was dashing out of his room, she bumped against someone's chest. Someone's firm and broad chest. But without even bothering to look up at his face, she just said sorry and was about to walk ahead, when she felt his grip around her wrist.

All surprised, she turned and a familiar-looking bearded man.

A man whom she loved from the core of her heart.

"Raymond !!!"

"Shhh !!! Let's go inside."

Saying that Raymond pulled her back to Dr. Nelson's room where he saw him sitting all upset with his one palm resting on his forehead and the other on the table.

"What happened Dr. Nelson?"

Dr. Nelson raised his eyes and looked up at him for some time and then asked,

"What's with this disguise?"

"I guess I am hiding from some people. But that's secondary. What happened to your hand?"

"It's all because of me."

She said and entered inside the room.

He was surprised and elated at the same time to see her back. For a moment he had thought that she had drifted apart for real. So when he heard her voice, it was all again pretty comforting for him.

Raymond turned back and looked at her entering inside the room with nothing but guilt on her face.

She slumped on the chair and then looked at Raymond and said,

"I thought I was capable of handling it on my own. I thought that I will be able to set things right. But I was overconfident and I undermined the people with whom I was messing up with. And this...."

Saying that she pointed towards Dr. Nelson's injured hand and said,

"This is the aftermath of my uncalculated approach. I am sorry Raymond, I should have told you about it. But now things are really getting out of my hand. I am sorry for going behind your back, but I didn't want you to see or face any of this ugliness Raymond."

Raymond took a seat next to her and held her hand.

"It's ok. Tell me what happened. Are you in trouble? We can set things right. Akira, look at me. We promised yesterday night to be open with each other. No more secrets ok."

Akira was almost tearing up and said,

"You have to calmly listen to me. Each and every word that I say and trust me on it."

"I trust you with my life Akira."

Then, taking a deep breath, Akira said,

"The false reports that you got from Dr. Oshana, are not because of medical negligence. It's because of the fact that your dad had asked her to do so."

"Actually, I asked Dr. Nelson to take advantage of the soft corner that she had for him and to make her utter about the whole plot. We gave her truth serum to tell about it all, as in what and why she was doing all this. We recorded the whole conversation and used it to our advantage so that she would stop all her wrongful activities."

"Then?"

Then Akira looked at Dr. Nelson and then turned back at Raymond and said,

"But I think she is scared that we will use it against her and probably tell Sebastian or Medical authorities, which we do not intend to do. We just made the video as leverage against her so that she would rectify the treatment for you, without you knowing the reason behind it."

"But that backfired?"

"I... I just wanted to shield you, Raymond. There was enough negativity around you. So I didn't want to add in one more component into it. But she misunderstood our intentions and now she is hell-bent on revenge. And to be honest, now I am scared because I really don't know what she will do."

"I can't see people getting hurt around me. I just can't. It's all happening because of me."

Raymond immediately wrapped his arm around Akira, and then looked at Dr. Nelson all apologetically. He was also feeling bad that a third person, was getting hurt for no reason.

"Raymond, at least you do not make a scene out of it now. It's just a cut. Nothing serious. But she did give a serious threat about harming Akira and that's what worries me."

"It is serious Dr. Nelson. We have a situation here and I would like to correct it as soon as possible. Dr. Oshana is a gaping wound. We need to stitch her up. I don't want another loose end to worry about."

"Where is the video, I want to see it."

Akira immediately retorted,

"We don't have a copy of it."

She still didn't want him to see the video and get hurt.

But Dr. Nelson looked at Raymond and said,

"I have a copy with me."
