The practitioner took a while to comprehend the sudden tension in the room - an apparently enraged young man was standing in the doorway giving death glares to him and the panic-stricken girl beside him;

"What do you want, kid? Mr Singh has already been frantic about her health and you're sort of disrupting her on-going check up. Move it!" - As he fixed the rest of her shirt - gently moving his fingers onto her shoulder - Ranbir moved forward tightening his fist, trying his best to digest the scene in a calm manner.

"Are you the maniac dressed up as a doctor?"

"What do you mean by dressed up as a doctor? I am a doctor!!"

"Well, your disgusting features validate that your father had plainly penetrated into the wrong hole!" - While Prachi stared at him in utter embarrassment; the practitioner was equally left speechless.

"Now before you open your stinking mouth any further - allow me to tell you that you've been caught red-handed for taking advantage of the solitude and harassing my client!"

"I am afraid but, your majority of the twisted declarations do not provide enough evidence. You'd have to come with me for further investigation."

As Ranbir walked away; their eyes met. She observed the smooth shift of his facial expressions from mischief to being completely unsettled.
