Jayne looked at the short, chubby, rosy skinned man before her . He looked like a cute character straight out of a movie . His sienna brown eyes glowed even in the cold winter and his straight eyebrows arched when he smiled and held out his hands to greet her . His hair was neatly combed and with his doctor coat on he looked very neat and professional .
Jayne did a 'namaste' to him .
The doctor immediately realised that she was an Indian . He too joined hands and did a 'namaste' by joining his hands .
Jayne's eyes flickered and the corners of her mouth curved upwards .
"Please come in . Have a seat . Feel at home . " The doctor greeted the couple and Assistant Daniel West .
The doctor later asked, "What would you like to eat or drink?"
Ronnie answered, "We've just now had breakfast doctor . So it's fine . We'll just have a glass of water . "
The doctor ordered the maids to get water and some fruit juice to all of them .
They began talking about various things . Then, Ronnie narrated the entire incident on how he met Jayne and her injury to the doctor . He also explained about the tribal medicine given to her . He didn't forget to tell the wound dressing done by the Army doctors at the relief camp .
Dr . Henry Thomas listened to everything patiently and said, "Hmph…"
It was the first time for Assistant Daniel West also to listen to the entire story . He was too consumed by the story that he'd stopped breathing . But he was taught to control his emotions . Hence he looked his usual self, calm and composed .
The doctor said to Ronnie, "Well, let me examine the physical wounds first if it has totally healed or not . " Then he turned towards Jayne and asked her to accompany him to his study which also acted as his clinic at home for emergency cases .
Once they were inside, Dr Henry Thomas asked Jayne to sit on the bed and he began undressing the wound . By now the physical wound had almost healed up .
He said, "Jayne your physical injuries have almost recovered . You don't have to wear this bandage any more . " He smiled at her .
"Okay Sir," Jayne was relieved . 'Okay my first step to recovery,' she thought to herself .
Dr Henry Thomas disinfected the wounded area and finally sticked a band-aid around the wounded area, "You can remove this too in a day or two . "He said to Jayne .
Later they both sat across the table, opposite to each other .
"Jayne, tell me how are you feeling? Does it hurt anywhere?" He questioned her .
" Doctor I'm feeling better physically . It doesn't hurt anywhere . With Ronnie's ultimate care and concern, it doesn't hurt even a little . I feel I'm fine already . " Jayne indirectly expressed her thanks to Ronnie .
The Doctor chuckled at her response and said, "Good good that you are recovering . Tell me how else do you feel? Let me remind you, the cooperation between a doctor and patient matters the most . Only if you tell me how exactly you feel without concealing anything, I'd be able to help you in this journey . Majorly you've to help yourself out of this . " The doctor gave a subtle suggestion to Jayne, his expression calm .
