<h4>487 Your husband is all righ</h4>


    David stuttered as he was unable topose his thoughts after hearing what the ambnce driver had to say.


    "Lenox Hill Hospital. I am getting an SOS now. Got to go. I will give it to the Lost and Found section of the hospitalter."


    Saying that the ambnce driver disconnected the call.


    Things were gettingpletely out of the way. David was unable to understand that when everything seemed to be going fine a cmity was striking their lives. He didn''t want to disturb the love birds that night, but this situation was imperative. So without wasting any extra second he immediately picked up his phone again and called up Akira.


    "Hello."


    "Hello, Akira."


    "Yes, David?"


    "Erm... Dr. Nelson..."


    "Ah... that man has disappeared like a ghost after the party. I sent him so many thank you texts but he didn''t even bother to reply. I will give him a call tomorrow morning and ...."


    "Akira listen..."


    David interrupted her monologue and with a heavy heart he said,


    "Come as soon as possible to Lenox Hill hospital."


    "What happened? Are you all right?"


    "I am fine. It''s Dr. Nelson."


    "What happened to him?"


    "He met an ident yesterday night while returning from the party. I will see you guys there."


    Before Akira could disconnect the call, and tell Raymond about it, he had already taken a U-turn and gave voicemand to navigate to?Lenox Hill Hospital.


    Deep down in her heart, there was a strange panic that was gripping her, trying to bereft her from sanity. Neither of them spoke anything on their way to the hospital but Raymond''s mind was racing fast. A few minutester, breaking out from the coffin of silence, Raymond said,


    "He came there with Dr. Oshana. I mean at the party. So he must have left with her. Call her and get the status."


    "Oh yes yes. Why I didn''t think about it earlier."


    Saying that Akira called up Dr. Oshana but she didn''t pick up her call. She attempted a couple of times more but the result was the same. All her calls went to the voicemail.


    "I don''t know why she is not picking up my calls."


    Saying that Akira started fidgeting with her hands and the phone and seeing that Raymond lifted his right hand and ced it over hers, lending her all his warmth and care.


    "He will be all right. Don''t worry. He is a good soul and nothing can happen to good souls."


    "Even my parents were good souls."


    Saying that Akira froze.


    The painful memory of the road ident involving her parents shed in front of her eyes and she couldn''t do anything but panic.


    "Don''t corrte Akira. Please don''t. Let''s just get to the hospital first ok."


    ----


    [At Lenox Hill Hospital]


    Staring at her phone screen Dr. Oshana thought for a while and then switched her phone from Vibration to silent mode. Given that Akira had called her five times, she could sense that somehow Akira had got to know about the ident. So she wanted to dy her arrival as much as possible. She wanted to be the first person whom the doctor would look at when he would open his eyes. There was a strange sense of possessiveness that had started to grip her.


    She was perfectly aware that her doing was not right, but her heart wanted something else, a ceholder in Dr. Nelson''s heart.


    He was out from surgery which had happened sessfully but was currently under the influence of anesthesia, so they had put him in ICU under observation. His wounds were not that serious but because of heavy blood loss and a huge blow to his head, the doctors had spected about concussion.


    Sitting next to him, Dr. Oshana held his hand and rubbed her thumb against his, tracing along the cut mark that had happened because of her scalpel. Feeling deeply apologetic, she softly kissed on his hand and then hoisted herself up to kiss on his forehead.


    But before she could do so, the hospital staff came into the room.


    "Maam, all the belonging''s of sir can be collected from the reception. We had removed everything inside the OT. There might be valuables in that, so kindlye and collect it."


    "Erm.... yeah. Will do. But not now."


    "Umm... I can guard for sir here. You can collect it from the reception in the meantime. I mean, in case you are scared to leave him alone."


    Getting a bit irritated because of he insistence, Dr. Oshana replied curtly,


    "As I said, I will collect itter."


    "Well, there is no need to be so fussy about it. Don''t me me if anything goes missing."


    "Gahh such fussy wives."


    The attendant mumbled and went back to the reception. She opened up the packet just to make note of all the valuable things so thatter on it didn''t be a problem for her. And as she flipped through his wallet, she saw the picture of another woman in his wallet instead of the woman who was waiting next to him in the ICU.


    She pondered for a while and then kept the wallet, watch, etc back into the packet and continued with her work. But before she could fill out the formalities on her system, she saw two people rushing in.


    The face of the female looked very familiar to her. But before she could say anything, the female blurted,


    "Excuse me... Can you tell us where Dr. Nelson is admitted? I mean which room he is in? Please please, it''s urgent."


    "Erm... your husband is on the second floor ICU ward. Room number 217. I just came down from there. Nothing to worry, the surgery has gone well."


    Saying that she took out two visitor ID cards for them but then she heard the man say,


    "Husband? Whose husband?"
