500 Creating distance - 2
Seeing her all embarrassed and stumped by his question, Dr. Nelson said,
"It's ok Akira. You don't need to answer that question," he said and looked at her with comforting eyes.
Lowering her eyes for so ti, she licked her lips while flapping her eyelids out of nervousness. She wasn't expecting him to catch her in her own trap.
Seeing her still struggling with herself, Dr. Nelson said,
"Aren't you going to ask how I am feeling right now? Do I feel pain or not? I hope you still intend to find out how I am doing, right?"
"Yeah, I was just about to ask you that," said Akira and then finally looked up at him.
"I am doing fine. Will be discharged tomorrow."
"Oh !!! That's really great," she said and finally a smile etched on her face.
But sohow seeing her like this, was hurting him. Because he never wanted her to be in any sort of issues because of him. He never wanted to be the reason why she couldn't sleep well at night.
So, taking a deep breath, he decided not to beat around the bush and said,
"Give your hand Akira."
"What?", she exclaid.
"Just give your hand," he said and looked into her eyes with affection.
Akira hesitated for a while and then placed her hand on top of his palm. Then with his finger, he traced a the semi-circular heart line on her palm and said,
"This is your heart line. It goes straight, un-deviated anywhere till the root of your index finger."
"So?" Asked Akira, unable to get the point of that statent.
"So it ans that in your life there would be just one component of love, an intense component of love. No deviation ans, no matter what you will stay united with the love of your life till death will do you apart," he said and traced her heart line again.
"Wow, I didn't know that you knew palmistry."
Akira said and listened to him as he continued,
"Now look at mine and tell what does it say?" Dr. Nelson said and showed her his palm. Akira looked at carefully, comparing that with hers and then after a few seconds she replied,
"It's exactly the sa as mine. Single love till death...." and her voice trailed away.
"I know Jaby, I know it all... But I just wanted to know if..."
"If what Akira?"
"Does it hurt you to see ? Does it hurt you when you see in the arms of soone else?"
Dr. Nelson smiled and held her hand tightly and said,
"There have been tis, that I wanted to ask God why he played with ? He could have created you and just let you be. Why he had to pull you in my life? I would be honest, I was really mad with my fate when I t you. But then I realized the only thing common between you and her is your face. But apart from that, you both are so different. You are a whole different person Akira. A kind but an equally confident one. I admire you as a person and thus wanted you in my life not because I have feelings for you, but because it's nice to have a person like you in life."
Her eyes welled with tears as she heard him say those words.
"Hey don't cry and please don't look at with those pitiful eyes. It makes feel like a charity case Akira."
And she giggled as she heard him say that. It was weird. He had the capacity to make cry and laugh at the sa ti.
Then taking a deep breath she asked the one thing that she was really hesitant about.
"Well, do you... Do you rember our dance together?"
And the mont she asked him that, his heart paused for a while.
"Yes, vividly. What about it?" He asked, trying to sound casual.
"Well, that night, now that I try to recollect, I felt like you had an untold emotion in your eyes. I can't decipher what it was, but there was sothing that you were feeling. I am pretty sure about it."
She said and looked into his eyes, expecting a genuine answer.
This question was the reason, why she couldn't co here with Raymond, becasue no matter what, he was still a hot-blooded man, and she couldn't have dared to ask it in front of him.
Dr. Nelson took a deep breath and looked at her for so ti and then said,
"I think we have really beco close friends. That night I was wishing that it wasn't you but her. I was wishing if she could just co back and replace you. I am sorry, I was there dancing with you, but in my mind, only her image was there. It was hard for to concentrate. I couldn't tell you, but I am glad that you could notice the conflict within my heart."
Akira faintly smiled after hearing him say those words.
"I am now glad that I have soone with whom I can talk about all these things now."
"Anyti Jaby, anyti," said Akira, and then with a smile on her face she tried to divert the conversation to a happy note.
"I must say, your palmistry skills saved us from having an awkward conversation."
Dr. Nelson smiled a bit and then said,
"I was just bluffing. I don't know any palmistry Akira."
