"Oooh, its nice and warm", Akira exclaid as she got inside the car.
"Well, what are the car heaters for", he said and smiled.
"So where are you staying?" Dr. Nelson asked while switching on to the city map on the car display unit so that he could navigate to her hotel.
"The Savoy. It's right near..."
"I know where it is", he said and switched off the navigation.
She was surprised to see him switching off the map screen and asked,
"So you are familiar with London?"
"My mom was born and brought up here until she moved in with my dad to the US. So yeah I am quite familiar as I have spent most of my holidays here, right in the heart of the city with my grandparents".
"Oh, I see. That's really nice".
Saying that she adjusted the seat and then sat a bit comfortably in the car.
"What about your grandparents? Are they in the US?"
"Um... my grandparents had passed away before I was even born. So actually I have never got to even interact with them".
"I am so sorry".
"Oh, don't be. It's not like I knew them or anything".
"Would you like so music?", he asked, trying to change the mood of the conversation.
"Um... you don't need to be so courteous and polite with . You are giving a drop and that's more than enough for ",
"Well you don't look like much of a talker, so I thought I could use so songs to kill the ti", he said and smiled.
Akira was surprised with his smooth reply and said,
"I think you have learned all these talking skills by talking all day long with your patients".
"Well, I don't know if that was a complint or a jibe, to be very honest". saying that he looked at her.
She laughed from the corner of her eyes.
Then she realized that it had been ages that she had laughed this way. Sohow she felt like her heart was feeling all lighter after ages. She knew it was all because of him.
A smile etched on his face and she mumbled inside of her head,
"What a spell you have cast on , Raymond? One day with you and I have changed. Like I have blossod like I have spread new wings".
"What's so funny in there?", he asked after seeing that sweet little smile that had ford on her face.
"Ah, nothing. I just rembered sothing nice", then turning towards him she said,
"Sothing really really nice".
"I bet it's sothing about your man. isn't it?", he said and looked at her.
She smiled at looked at him and said,
"I have got a new aning to life because of him. It's like I have learned to live again".
He looked at her with a question mark on his face, unable to understand what she ant with that statent.
Then she turned towards him and said,
"And thanks for pushing the clouds of fear from my heart. I don't know what I would have done without you".
He smiled looking at her humbled eyes and said,
"I saw a couple more of his records on Dr. Oshana's system. They seem quite good. His last sleep analysis report was quite promising. He doesn't experience any discomfort or trauma sort of a thing and his REM sleep duration was also excellent. So considering all these factors, I don't think you should worry much".
Hearing those words Akira felt more hopeful. His words had lighted a ray of new hope in her system.
She looked at him with eyes filled with nothing but regard and gratitude and said,
"I have never seen a good doctor like you", and saying that she wiped that small drop of tear that was trying to fall from her eyes.
He looked at her getting all emotional and he knew what she was going through. He wasn't alien to those feelings.
Taking a deep breath he said,
"I know what it feels like to be scared of losing the one person in your life. I know how it feels when you have that question of uncertainty looming all around you. So trust when I say that I understand your fears. But based on my experience and knowledge, I know that he will do just fine".
Then turning towards her he said,
"You guys will do all fine. Just stay strong and support each other".
He said and gave an assuring smile back to her.
There was no language or text using which she could explain to him, what and how much those couple of words ant to her.
She had lost him once, the thought of losing him again was sothing that she couldn't even dare to bear.
