  Vikram's POV
  We were working for a very long time and everyone was tired.  Sandhya and I were sitting in one room and Chirag and Ajay in another room. I looked at Sandhya and saw that she had dozed off.  So I decided to take a break for some time.  I told the nurse to tell the people that it was the lunchtime and we will see the patients after an hour now.
  I sat beside her and kept looking at her. She was so beautiful, caring, loving... I want her in my life. I never thought that I would ever feel like this, but I wanted to kill Chirag when he said he loved her.
  I know very well that it was just a way of giving compliments. But I wanted to beat the hell out of him. I would have to tell him to stay away. I would have to tell everyone to stay at least 10 meters away from her. She is mine. Just mine.
  I kept looking at her and I tucked her hair away from her face. She had beautiful

Vikram's POV
 We all took rest in our rooms as the dinner was to be served at 8:30 PM.
 I came out of the room and saw that Sandhya, Ajay and Chirag were sitting in the sitting area. I also settled on a sofa. Chirag was telling some funny story as usual and we all were laughing. Chirag is handsome, funny and an amazing man, thank God. He likes Ruchika.
 The food was served. We took it and started eating. It was extremely spicy and oily. I didn't even take another bite. Chirag and Ajay were also saying that it was spicy but they ate that. I was hungry but could not eat that.
 " Do you have any leftover food from lunch? I can't eat this." I asked her.
 " There must be some, I will get it for you, sir." She went to check the refrigerator as she had kept the leftover food there.

 I opened the refrigerator and saw tha

Vikram's POV
 She used the microwave and brought hot food to our table. She waited for her friends and called them, but they were busy.
 " So did you make all this Sandhya? " She hesitated for a minute and nodded.
 She served food for Gautam but he took the plate and passed it on to me. She had to serve another plate for him.
 I ate the bean salad it was so perfectly prepared... Spicy, tangy, with lots of fruits and veggies. It was delicious.
 Then and I took a bite of parantha and I knew that probably that proverb was true... The way to a man's heart is through his stomach.
 She seems to be entering my heart...
 Hey but, Gautam was eating it too. 
 He tried both the things and said, " Can I kiss your hand please? "
 Before she could say anything, I said, " NO " too quickly and kicked him under the table. But he kept looking at her with a smile on his face.
 " Well, Go and kiss Maurvi's hand. " I said shooting glared at him, but he was being thick-skinned.
 " Yes, she is an extremely good cook," Sandhya said.
 " So, do you cook every day? " He asked.
 " Yes, more or less but today I had to, as my aunt and uncle have gone to Jodhpur to my parents' place. " She said and I smiled at that.
 " That means you are alone at home with Shubh? "
 " Hmm. Yes. But tomorrow he would be alone at home. As we have to go to camp. I would have to cook for him for two days as all he can do in the kitchen is boil water or burn toast." She smiled and shook her head.
 " Hey can I have more of these?" Gautam asked her.
 " Of course sir, by all means, take as much as you want, I made for everyone." She said. 
 Hmmm, she cooked for everyone. Except me...
 " Gautam"
 " What sir?? "
 " My name is Gautam. Please call me that. Sir is fine for this irritating sulking man. Call him sir, if you want but not me. Understood? "
 I will kill you, Gautam... So I am an irritating sulking man? She should call you... bhaiya. In fact, every girl should call you bhaiya.
 " Umm, Ok. "
 " Sandhya, I need to tell you something. Stay away from Puneet, he was just flirting with you. He doesn't even have a sister. "
 " What ?? Seriously?? That is so irritating. I would have wasted at least half an hour in making that diet chart. "
 She looked angry. Hey, but she is looking.... beautiful.
 " Hmmm, that is why Vikram was telling him to leave you alone... "
 He has been talking about me as if I am not here. Have I suddenly become invisible?? She looked at me apologetically and I just nodded.
 " Well thanks, Sandhya. The food was awesome, loved it so much. Isn't it Vikram? I smiled and nodded. She smiled faintly.
 I ate a lot that day, almost twice of what I usually eat.
 The lunchtime was over and we went back to our department.
 " Sandhya as your aunt and uncle are not here, I need to talk to your brother Shubh. Please tell him to meet me before you go home. Understand? " She just nodded.
 We kept on doing our work and in the evening, Shubh came to meet me. I told him about the camp. He got a bit paranoid, but I told him that everyone has to do it. I also assured him that I will take care of Sandhya. I understand his concern for her as also have a younger sister and I would be worried about her as well if she has to go somewhere alone.
 I took his number and assured him that a good arrangement has been done for everyone and there would be a few nurses as well. He looked a bit relaxed. He took her and went home.
 Sandhya's POV
 I got up early in the morning and with the help of our housekeeper, I prepared breakfast and lunch. I didn't want Shubh to eat outside food. Chirag and Ajay were also there since yesterday so I thought of packing food for them as well. I made lots and lots of Methi Theplas. I made Poha, and Cucumber Sandwiches for breakfast, Paneer Butter Masala, Chhole and Chatpata Aaloo with poori and chapati. I packed Theplas, Choorma Laddooes and some readymade snacks. I got ready to leave for the hospital, I had already packed my overnight bag last night.
 Shubh dropped me to hospital and came with me to talk to Dr Rathore.
 "Dr Rathore, Please take care of her, I will be just a phone call away. If you need anything please feel free to call me. " He looked very tensed.
 " Rest assured, Mr Shubh, I will take care of everything. She would not face any problem. Don't worry. " he said.
 He left after hugging me and giving me hundreds of instructions and a long list of dos and don'ts.
 I helped Dr Rathore in loading my stuff and food in the car, then we slipped into the car and started driving.
 He looked at me with amusement and asked, " Do you mind, if I ask, why have you taken so much stuff for just 2 days? "
 " I have just taken one overnight bag and all these are filled with food. I thought that since Chirag and Ajay are here since yesterday, I must get food for them as well. So I am carrying today's breakfast, lunch and dinner for everyone. " 
 " Seriously?"
 " Yes.. "
 " Even I will get food? Did you get food for me too? "
 " I have enough food for everyone. "
 " Maybe, but did you get for me? "
 ' Yes, I did. "
 He just smiled and looked towards the road.
 He is weird...
 It was a beautiful morning. The air in the village was very fresh and pure. I felt very good here. We reached our destination. Ajay was already standing outside of our camp. He came rushing towards us. He helped us to take out everything from the car. He asked the same question.
 " What are you carrying in all those bags? " He looked at me curiously.
 " Food, for all of us. " Chirag had already come to us and Dr Rathore was drinking water.
 " I swear, I really love you... " Said Chirag and Dr Rathore was so shocked that the water he was drinking, came out of his nose. He kept on coughing.
 " Are you alright, sir? " Three of us asked him. he got normal in a few minutes. He was glaring at Chirag.
 " I am fine, but what did you just say? " He asked Chirag. He looked very angry.
 " What sir... I am sorry sir, but I am not getting... What did I say to offend you? " He looked very confused.
 " Nothing, I will talk to you later. For now, just start your work." He was irritated at him.
 He went inside to inspect everything.
 He told all of us to be ready as our medical camp would start in half an hour.
 I took out the boxes which had breakfast for everyone.
 I placed it on the table and said, " Everyone please eat your breakfast before that as we may not get any time after that." So they started serving food for themselves.
 Dr Rathore was still a bit angry. But why was he angry??
 Ajay served a plate for him as well and took it to him. He just looked at the food and said,
 " You all eat the food, I am not hungry. I will eat later on."
 What is wrong with him??
 Chirag and Ajay were enjoying the food.
 I was getting very uncomfortable, with him being angry.
 I served a plate for him and took it to him.
 " Sir, are you angry with us? Please have food. You will get sick otherwise. "
 He looked at me for a few seconds and took the plate and ate the food.
 " Thanks, everything is really very good. Why are you not eating? " I got some food for me as well. 
 I offered food to the nurses and ward boys, but they said they already had their breakfast. Some of the food was left and everyone was full so I gave the remaining breakfast to a young child, who was playing nearby.
 I could see that Dr devil's eyes were following me everywhere
 The villagers started coming for their check-ups and consulting any medical questions they had. We all were very busy. I kept making diet charts for the patients.
 All of us were extremely busy. I was so tired as I had prepared the food as well. I just kept my head on the table and dozed off.
