"yes, as you know it is very mandatory procedure to know the count of cancer cells and many other details which will be very useful with your diagnosis"
"please collect the blood samples and do an MRI for today doctor we will postpone the lumbar puncture procedure for the next day as it is getting very late and I need to return before people suspect that I am missing for a long time"
"alright then we will do the MRI and we will do the remaining procedure at my hospital in city" he told her after thinking about her reason being valid as it is also outskirts and if it is late at night then it will be difficult to even get a cab or vehicle back to the city
"no doctor as I said I don't want anyone to doubt about anything and in city my people will follow me 24/7 so it will be very difficult to hide all of this from them"
"but they will know eventually if you come here on a regular basis without a valid reason"
For Aadvika what he said also seemed right as the people who are following her secretly most probably appointed by her father or by her brother thinking to keep it a secret from her will eventually report this news to them and it will take them less than a minute for them to know about this whole thing
After thinking about this for a while Aadvika came up with an idea which might divert their attention without any trouble and it will also help the hospital and the people who come for the check-ups making it even more believable in the eyes of others
"I had a suggestion but for that I need your help" she told him after carefully considering all pros and cons of the situation
"anything within my reach" he told her politely after knowing her identity
"I want you to recommend me to this hospital for a cardiologist post I will visit once or twice a week making it collide it with your time so that others will not doubt a thing as I get my treatment and it will also help the hospital and patients in it" Aadvika suggested him making him stunned for a minute but he put out his views and concerns on this matter before making a decision for her
"as you have heard this hospital is run by an NGO and the specialists who comes to this hospital are doing it voluntarily without taking a single penny from the management for their efforts and you are famous doctor where many people pour thousands of dollars just to get diagnosed by you"
"It's all right it is my profession and I will think of working here as a charity and helping others with what I can and trust me it will not affect my daily life as well so please help with the recommendation" Aadvika assured him to which he also agreed before they went to do the other tests so that she can leave the hospital early
"reports will come in two days or so with in this period of time I will prescribe you some medication for the pain if you face any and in our next session, we will do all other leftover tests but if possible, please bring someone you can trust with you as it is very critical and painful procedure to begin with" he suggested her to which she simply nodded her head before leaving the hospital

At university
By the time Aadvika came to her room it is already about dinner time and Emily and Anupama are anxiously waiting for her in the room especially Emily as she was starting to walk in rounds in the room rubbing her hands
"where did you go without saying do you know how worried we both were" Emily shouted at her the movement Aadvika came inside without even letting her give any explanation
"I just went outside to see the city as I was new here and forgot to look at the time as I was deeply immersed in the areas I was watching and I thought to give you guys a call the movement I realised that it was getting late but my mobile it ran out of power" Aadvika showed them the switched off mobile phone as it really ran out of power
"next time don't go anywhere without informing us you are new to this place so what if you go missing or lost somewhere" Emily chided her after taking a long breath to calm herself
"I will remember it in the future, so now, can we go and have dinner I was feeling so hungry" she told them as she placed her belongings on her desk and kept her mobile in charging before heading out with both of them
…
"It's a call from my brother" Aadvika told them after seeing her mobile ringing after coming back to room
"okay" Emily told her as she went to get changed before going to bed while Anupama sat at her study desk immersing herself in her books with a small nod
"hello bhai" Aadvika answered the call after going towards the balcony as usual
"what happened? Where have you been all this time? Do you know how worried we were since we couldn't find you?" he literally shouted at her for her carelessness
"and how did you know about me not being around the campus?" Aadvika countered him even though she already knows the answer to her question
"that…" Dakshith literally scolded himself for revealing the information that he kept few people to watch her every move and to save her in case of danger
"I know there is no need for you to explain me further and say the same to the uncle of yours also but don't worry I will not blame you for this after what I have done for the past few years it is very common for you to worry about me, I can understand that" Aadvika had no one else to blame other than herself in the situation she is today
