"I am totally fine. Another doctor friend of mine had helped to put the ice pack on my ankle. So it is not hurting me at all."
Akira ranted in one single breath as she was getting immensely irritated in the presence of Vikram and his family doctor, Dr. Neil.
"Don't listen to her Dr. Neil. Just check if everything is ok. We can leave now if an x-ray is required. Plus that person who put ice pack is just an acquaintance. God knows if he is even a doctor. Might be some quack, who knows?"
Vikram muttered and his tone clearly reflected his anger towards Dr. Nelson, but the disrespect that he showed was a bit too much for Akira to bear. So she retorted,
"To me, he seemed like a proper and well-learned doctor with a fair degree of knowledge of what he was doing. Dr. Nelson cannot be a quack."
Vikram was shocked to see the way Akira was getting all protective about him, but more than him, Dr. Neil was surprised.
