Can You Mend My Broken Heart?

Chapter 492: His urgent kiss

492 His urgent kiss

She was taken aback for a while. She was not expecting such a hungry kiss from him. But her body went under his trance in seconds. Her hands which initially tried hard to grab the leather of the seats now were grabbing his hair.

Even she had the same longing for his touch.

They had been through a crazy bull ride of ups and downs in their life and all she wanted was to immerse herself at that moment.

His hand which was supporting the back of her neck came down and rested on the crevice of her neck. But that was not enough for her. She wanted him now, then and there. Somehow when she was with him, she always forgot where she was, what was happening around her. He had the power to captivate her in seconds.

She held his hand in hers and slowly pulled it down from her neck and placed it on her chest.

Raymond was taken aback.

He disconnected from her for a moment and looked deep into her eyes. All that he could see was a profound amount of love and trust.

"What was I even thinking?"

Saying that he sighed and let out a deep gasp of air.

"What happened? What were you thinking? Why did you stop? Do you not feel like doing it anymore? I mean... Did it turn you off? I mean what I did?"

There was so much worry laced in her voice that Raymond couldn't stop but getting mad at himself. For a moment he had second thoughts that someone could steal her away from him. For a moment he felt insecure because someone had no negative qualities in him, because that someone was a reliable, kind and genuine man, because that someone was Dr. Nelson.

Even though deep down he trusted Dr. Nelson, the episode of Vikram had taught him not to trust even best family friends. He knew that Dr. Nelson was helping them because he genuinely cared about them, but a part of him was scared to lose her.

"Raymond. What happened? Why are you spacing out? Did I do something wrong?"

She hadn't done anything wrong. It was all Raymond. Yet here she was pondering how she had offended him. Her questions tore through his heart. He was angry with himself for making her question her actions.

So he looked at her and said.

"Let me take you home."

And saying that he brushed a couple of loose hair from her face and tucked them gently beneath her ears and said,

"I might lose myself here."

He hid his emotions perfectly with his words and sped through. The night was dark but for them, it was still young.

With a smile on her face, she opened the mirror flap in the car and checked herself out.

"What are you looking at?"

"Nothing... Just that my lips look a bit pale."

"What happened? Do you feel unwell?"

Asked Raymond, and placed the back of his palm on her forehead to check her temperature. His face reflected his worried heart.

"Erm... I think you took my statement south."

"What do you mean?"

Her cheeks started burning because of the naiveness of this man. Even after years of being together with each other, his silly questions still made her feel giddy.

"What I meant was, my lipstick is all gone now."

And saying that she opened the windows shield and started looking outside. Things were becoming too mushy for her to handle.

He was taken aback for a moment. Embarrassment came pouring in, but soon seeing her getting affected like this made his heart get even more restless.

"So do you want to stay like this here for some time? Or...."

"Or?", asked Akira and turned towards him.

"Or do you want to go home?"

Biting her lips in anticipation she said,

"Let's go home."

That was the answer he was looking for. That was all that he wanted to hear. So with a grin on his face, he sped through.

-----

Soon after Akira and Raymond left the hospital, David went inside to check upon Dr. Nelson. Now that he was aware about his situation, about his past, he was curious to know what was going inside the head of the man.

He knew that he was a good man, but for him, Akira and Raymond were a priority.

"How do you feel doctor?"

"I feel ok."

"Erm... the thing is. I just wanted to know..."

"About my wife Alita?"

Dr. Nelson asked before David could even finish his sentence.

"Erm... well not exactly that. The thing is ..."

"Look, David, I know that you guys know about the fact that Akira looks exactly like my wife, but trust me that is all that is. Nothing more nothing less. I treat her as a friend and that's all that I can do. So no, if you think I am in love with her. No, if you think whatever I did was because she reminded me of her. She does sometimes but that is my problem. I am not going to let that affect anyone else. Especially not her or Raymond."

"I know Dr. Nelson, you are not that sort of a person."

"If you know that then please help Raymond understand it as well. He came in like a paranoid a moment before and dragged her away as if like the world was coming to an end."

"I hope you can understand his state of mind."

Taking a deep breath Dr. Nelson replied,

"Just let him know if he is not comfortable, then I am ok to cut off all ties with her."

"Dr. Nelson !!!"

"Don't worry David, I am also a well-wisher of hers, just like you. And I would do anything for her."
