MAREEZ-E-ISHQ CHAPTER 1

 

Chapter  1

He is Maan Singh Khuran 27 years old, he has Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and you are the one who assigned to take care of him, Nurse Geet. Dr. Malhotra, one of the great Doctors in this hospital. He gave her the details of her job as he further added, you also take care because this patient is kind a dangerous. You are the 21th nurse, and I hope you don't leave this job like his past nurses did.” He added his worry.

Geet nodded with a small smile, ‘I will do my best, Sir, nothing to worry.’ 

He nodded back, ‘I only expected this.  Follow me.’ He ordered and walked out with Geet following his lead. They took the elevator and went up to the top floor. She was surprised but then chose to remain silent.

The elevator opened and she stood on the most quiet floor of the building. 

Dr. Malhotra walked ahead while she stayed behind watching him opening the door with the card. The door was Silver metallic with a card scanner in it.

‘This is the special room for the people who had a severe diseases like being obsessed, having a double personality and more.’ He explained and they stopped in the front of metallic door in the last room at the right.

He took a card from his pocket before inserting it into the scanner. It rang before opening, her heartbeat rose faster and stronger because of nervousness especially as when they entered.

The surroundings were dark but immediately lit up when the Dr. Malhotra turned on the lights. She gasped when a man tied to the bed came into her vision, he was asleep and his face was full of wounds as well as other parts of his body.

‘I'm sorry for you have to see this, him... tied on the bed. I told you he's really harmful. We don't have a choice but to do this.’ He explained while looking to her. ‘I'll leave you now. You know what to do, right? Just press the red button if there's an emergency.’

‘Yes, thank you very much.’ She nodded after listening everything with patience. 

He went out leaving her alone with the patient. She looked around the whole room; it was big because it included the bathroom. There are only a few things inside reasoning that he could hurt himself or other people.

She sat on the white sofa placed at one corner of the room; she opened her bag and took out the food for him as well as the water. She took out the first aid kit as well and prepared the things to treat his scars and wounds.

When it was over, she stared at the patient again. She couldn't help but feel sorry for his condition. He looked like a tied animal and she could see the agony on his face.

She stood up and walked up to him, stared at his face from closer. She stood  amazed at staring at his face as despite its scars, he looked one of the handsome guy on this planet.

The long eyelashes, the think eyebrows, the nose was sharp, his lips shade in pink color. His dark brown hair, she wonder if that's natural.

She froze at her place seeing him opening his eyes and looked straight at her. She almost trembled at the coldness of his gaze and because of the fear of him as he presence was as if screaming of her doom.

Who the hell are you?! His jaw tightened as he groaned and fell off the bed. ‘What the hell is this?! Get me off this!’  He growled.

She calmed herself down before speaking, ‘Calm down, Mr. Maan. It might hurt you.’

Maan glared at her, ‘How can I fcking calm down when I'm tied up in this bed?!’ he barked.

she gulped hard seeing his anger, ‘They need to do that because for your safety.’

‘For my safety?! Or for your fcking safety? Because I'm 'gonna really set this hospital on fire once I slip get out from this rope!’ he shouted in fury. 

She hardened her facial expression. ‘You will calm down or I'll make you sleep again?’

Her statement made his eyes widen in anger, he gritted his teeth, ‘No way! I'm gonna really kill you, stupid nurse!’

She clenched her fist and looked at him. ‘First of all, I'm not stupid. I'm Geet Handa, I'm your new nurse. Second, I'm not a coward because the real coward is you.’ Saying so she rolled her eyes.

he was shocked with her audacity and shouted in rage, ‘What?! I don't fcking care about your name, fck you!’

She flinched with his use of words but then ignored him; she took the food from the desk and then approached him again. He stared at the food container she was carrying.

‘It's time to eat.’ She  sat on the side of his bed. ‘I'll feed you.’

‘No! Let me go from here! I need to see my Sam! Where's my Sam?! I need her!’

She was stunned when she saw the change in his expression. His eyes glistened with tears.

‘Who is Sam?’ she asked.

But he didn’t answer...he looked lost; she ignored him, put the food container aside and stood up to get the syringe which only contained a sedative.

His condition looked worse ...looking lost somewhere....

‘Fck! Don't you dare, stupid nurse! Don't you dare!’ he shouted, threatening her but she didn’t budge.

Calm down... she said calmly.

‘How can I fcking calm down, huh?! Let go of that thing!’ He was very angry, but what was the use of his anger do if he was all tied.

‘Fine, but only if you calm down.’ She took a deep breath, leaving defeated sigh. He just looked at her, he continued to stared her down for a long time.

She thought he had calmed down but she was surprised when he screamed. ‘Your eyes! Remove your eyes! How could you have this beautiful eyes more than my sam! You don’t have right...You fcking b***h!’

Geet was taken back, she was startled and in that moment she injected him with the syringe she was holding. He was shocked at what she did. She watched him gradually weaken.

I hate you... he mumbled in his weak voice. 

‘I'm sorry, Mr. Maan, but I need to do it...aapki safety ke liye yahi sahi hai. She whispered, giving him pity look.

Coward... He said. His body felt numb and so weak. she just shrugged and untied him. She was comfortable now around him, she knew he can't move his body to do any violence. The effect of the medicine lasts for four hours.

‘I'm gonna make you pay for this.’ He threatened arrogantly and tried to stand up but fell back again feeling extremely weak. 

If you can move your body. Geet slightly smirked and then took the tray of food from the table.

B*****. He glared at her however feeling weak.

geet frowned, controlling her rage, trying not to hit him, ‘I'll feed you.’

‘No fcking way!’ he shouted*

‘Okay, fine. I'll tie you again.’ She threatened and pretended to tie him up again.

Fine, fine! He gave up and she smiled secretly. There he was staring at her again. She didn't pay attention to that and started to feed him.

It's obvious that he's hungry because he barely chews his food and just swallows it.

geet felt pity, what if i wasn't assigned to him right away? Will he be able to eat properly and on time? Kisine inhe khilane ki himmat bhi ki hogi seeing that nurses are so afraid of him. She felt her eyes moistening with the thought...she blinked her eyelashes looking away from him.

When he finished his meal, she asked him to drink water. She stood up and went to the bathroom to get a basin and a towel to wipe him off. When she came back  she was surprised seeing the scene before her eyes, he was crawling on the ground.

Mr. Maan! She exclaimed in horror, rushing towards him.

I n-need to find my S- Sam...

He said with difficulty. Who is that Sam?

N-No... Stop... He complained when geet helped him upright and back to the bed.

You're so stubborn. Geet muttered after settling him down on the bed again. 

He stared at her, ‘Sam...’ he whispered.

She made him lie down and squeezed the towel from the basin. She gently fixed his hair, he closed his eyes. She slowly wiped his face, just staring at him. He looks like an angel but she knows he has a bad attitude or ego problem it is...

She wiped his neck, arms and the chest. That's all. Maybe tomorrow she will arrange to give him a bath. There is no difference because they are assigned to do this task with every patient... And she had patients with him before so she used to it. But the fact was..he will be her first young male patient...she felt shiver in her whole body with the thought...kal ki kal dekha jayega geet... she calmed herself down before standing up again to return the basin. When she came back he was just looking at her silently. 

‘You can sleep now, Mr. Maan.’ She broke the silence

Make me...’ his words left her surprise but didn't show him. She looked at her wrist watch. 2 more hours before the effect of his injection will be removed.

Geet sat on the edge of his bed and stroked his long and soft hair. She was used to things like this because before she came here she was a nurse for children and the elders.

She watched as he closed his eyes.

I need my Sam... Give me back my Sam...He whispered that over and over again. Whoever it is, I'm sure she is the reason for his this condition.  Why Ms. Sam. He must have loved that girl so much that's why he did this. She thought looking at him. 

While staring at him, she didn't realize that her eyes slowly closed and she fell asleep next to him.
