Celebrity Crush Turned Deadly Love! novel Chapter 31

Sumathi's PoV

I almost had a heart attack when I got a call from Kavya saying Akshu is in hospital because of the accident. Her father left us all alone in an accident too. Is this a curse on me? But I felt a little relieved when Kavya said she had a hairline fracture on her leg and nothing else. I immediately booked a cab and came to Chennai. I came straight to this hospital. I felt a little better when the doctor told me that Akshu is completely fine. Her scan and x-ray reports are completely normal. This little fracture is settled by this surgery. The doctor said she can start walking after 15days.

The nurse working here is very kind. She has been seeing me since the afternoon, I have not eaten or moved from this place. Akshu is still sedated. She is in the recovery room. I am yet to see her. The nurse came to me and asked me to go and have something for dinner. She also said there is a little Vinayagar (Ganesh) temple outside. She is right, I need energy to take care of Akshu.

When I came back, Kavya also came from her pg. I sent her back to give company to Emily. Akshu was awake when we went in."Akshu! How are you feeling dear?" I ran to her.

"Ma, I'm ok. Please don’t cry. Just a little fracture on my leg. I will be fine."

"How did it happen? You have to be more careful, Akshu. No more scooty in Chennai."

"Ma, Enough. I already had an ear-full."

"From whom? " Kavya asked.

"um... from the doctor." Akshu said.

"Akshu, the doctor said you need at least 2 weeks rest before you start walking. Ask for leave from your office. You will have medical leave right?" I asked her.

Akshu and Kavya shared a look before Akshu answered me.

"Ma, We do have medical leave. I will send an email to my lead. No problem. I don't think the pg manager will allow you to stay there. You go back to Coonoor ma. Kavi will take care of me!" She told me.

"What? I'm not going to leave you here and go. You are coming with me to Coonoor. You can come back here after you get better."

"Ma."

"No more arguments." I stopped her from talking when the nurse came.

"Hello, Akshitha. How are you feeling?" The nurse asked her.

"Hi, sister. I'm good."

"You still have the effects of anesthesia. You will feel a sharp pain on your leg when it wears off. Here, this is the painkiller. Take one when your pain is between 8 and 10 on a scale of 10. Take half when the pain is between 5 and 8. No medication if it's less than 5. No other medicines Akshitha. You will mostly be discharged tomorrow."

"Thank you, sister." Akshu told her.

"Thank you so much sister. You took very good care of my daughter. Can you help me to pay the bill amount? No one has talked to me about that."

"Akshitha has no dues, madam." The nurse told me.

"What? I have not paid for anything yet."

"um...Ma, Our office had insurance. They would have claimed. I will talk to them. You take a rest, ma." Akshu stopped me from further questioning.

Akshu's PoV

Whoa, That was a close call. This Yash is too much. Who asked him to pay the bills? I already have to give him two lakhs. Now this hospital bill amount is added. I feel totally guilty for accepting money from him when he clearly denies his feelings for me.

I have to compromise Mom to let me stay here for the next 2 weeks. I cannot go, leaving Kavi alone here. It's completely not safe for her. Besides, I cannot live far away from Yash. The feeling of him being in the same city as I'm is very blissful. I'm now starting to feel the pain the nurse was talking about. I took the pain killer she gave me and it slowly drifted me to sleep.

Kavya's PoV

There is something going on between Akshu and Yadav. She is hiding it from me. I clearly know that it's him who paid the hospital bill. Akshu is good at driving. She is not a careless girl while driving. This accident is not her fault.

It's pure luck that the sharp thingy didn't poke her deep. It would be fatal if her internal organs had been damaged. Thank God, I have her phone. Shalu aunty has been calling her since morning. I don't know what to tell her. So I didn't pick her call.

Akshu drifted to sleep and I started to go to our pg. The hospital allows only one attender to the patient. When I was waiting for a cab, I saw him. Vishwa! He was with someone. A lady. Looks like she is sick. His mother may be.

A bitter feeling surrounded my heart and I felt nauseous. I truly don't know what I am feeling now. But definitely not anger. I rooted him deep in my heart that I could not pull him out that soon or that easily.

I could not take my eyes off him. My heart longs for him. I try hard to remember what a

low life he is. But my stupid heart still needs his warm talks and smile towards me. He was waiting too. Some man came with his car and he settled that lady in the car and went into the hospital again. That lady called for him when he was long gone. She tried to get down and stumbled. I ran to help her and got her on time.

"Thank you so much dear. I wanted to tell my son to bring my bag that I left on the reception desk."
