8 : Hard Block

2341 Words
The huge buildings really were starting to bother Nirvana now, because if has not been for them she would have been in her office or in the ER as soon a possible, but this just made it more painful now. Her feet quickly stopped just as Connor was opening the door of the Emergency Room from inside, “Woah Woah, Nirvana one more second and you would be friends with a concussion on your head.” “Shut up Connor,” Nirvana huffed already tired from all the run. “I have been hearing interesting stories about why our big boss was calling you to his OFFICE!” he whispered and grabbed her away to a corner “He never does that to anyone Niv! Don’t tell me you ran off with his money or something like that, I mean I know that he’s not a loan shark but he might just as well be one with all those scary people around him all the time guarding him” Connor whispered frantically. “And why are you so red Missy?” “I just ran from there to all the way here Connor” she replied, “And also I practically kissed back your boss and he told me things as he likes me and then I ran away from him ” her inner thoughts replied sarcastically. “You are acting weird Niv, but anyways no time to chit chat now, actually you will be handling the pit today and I’ve also already told your interns to do so too, so get going  now.” Nirvana quickly went up to the pit. She had always loved it out there even as an intern. The constant adrenaline and the rush never failed to make her high. She just about f*****g loved it. “Get your silly brains fresh and going, people! We have chores to do! And remember, be alert, assess, report and treat. Get that?” “Yes Ma’am” the interns replied in unison. “So what are we waiting for.”   Nirvana stood near the ER medicine room entry with an ECG report on her hands. Her brows were slightly scrunched as it had always been a habit of hers to do that while thinking about something. The interns were doing well with the minor cases and most of the emergency cases had already been assigned to other doctors of the sort. Time went by a bristle in the pit and soon, it was already 5:00 pm. Nirvana glanced at the watch on the wall. She did not have any shifts this night and not any more cases to handle so she was thinking about going to catch a drink anywhere near and by drink, she meant something like a sparkling apple mocktail because she literally hated the taste of alcohol, but she was not very familiar with the places around here. Just as she was in her thoughts a voice from behind called from behind. “Dr Delaney! If you are free this evening then would- no M- May I ask you out for a drink this evening. I know a great place around here!” Mark one of the interns she was in charge of babbled getting all red and embarrassed. She found that really cute and could not help but smile anyway. His golden hair and hazel gold eyes really made him seem like a Labrador asking for a treat and she loved dogs and just could not deny. “Only if you are off duty too, Mark, because I really did want to go for a drink but I am a newcomer here” she smiled. Mark instantly got more red and stared at her with a shocked expression. He had really never expected her to say yes at all, but now that she had agreed on going for a drink with him, he really was not going to mess this up. “I’ll be right back Dr, let's meet up at the exit about fifteen minutes from now?” he gushed out, his excitement obviously overflowing. Nirvana saw all of that and laughed “Of course.” She was bored, had no friends other than Conner who honestly would be too busy she guessed doing his things, so there was no harm in going with Mark right? He was pretty cute and easily flustered so she was going to have a lot of fun with him. She walked back to her office and removed her coat and since she was going out for a drink, she thought that it would be better to maybe touch up a little bit. Picking up a red lipstick from her handbag she gently applied a small amount of it on her lips to make it seem more pretty but natural. She also added some compact to her face because the entire day had been too tiring.   Zachariah was in his office handling a very important conference with a group of shareholders from their International branches. The meeting was going on pretty well and he was pretty much about to wrap it up about twenty minutes from then when his eyes from the corner caught sight of the CCTV footage going on from Nirvana’s office. He saw her looking in the mirror and scrunching before applying some lipstick and makeup on. “What the f**k is she doing. She does not normally take out so much effort.” Zachariah thought. Nirvana then went ahead and opened her hair tie letting her naturally gorgeous silky black hair out and then brushed it up. She gave one last twirl about the mirror and then with a satisfied smile went on out of the office to meet with mark. The insides of Zachariah were now restless seeing that she was getting ready for something and he really wanted to know who and even more why? “Extremely sorry gentlemen. I would like to end our meeting as of now, as it seems that I have a very urgent personal problem to deal with. It has been a pleasure.” All the people present in the meeting greeted him and then he switched it off, stood up and wore his suit jacket. “Get the car ready Simon” he bellowed to his secretary. “Right now sir? B-but you have-“ “I said to get the bloody car ready Simon! I have matters to attend to.” Simon quickly jumped on and then got to making calls for his car, as he had honestly never seen his boss getting so anxious over anything so he decided not to ask. He really did not want to lay on his deathbed so soon. “It is ready Sir “Excellent let us go then,” saying this  Zachariah’s mouth tugged up a little bit. “Did he just smi-“  Simon thought, but then cancelled it as soon as he looked back again since the boss was back to his usual cold self. “I must be dying due to the exhaustion now,” he whispered.   Nirvana was walking towards the exit now and that’s when she saw Mark fiddling with his thumbs and patiently waiting for her. As soon as he saw her he smiled but as she dawned closer, he got stunned by how beautiful Dr Delaney was even after the whole day of work. “May I say you are looking-“ “You are looking stunning Nirvana, as always” Zachariah spoke up from behind her and spun her around only to hold her hand and place a kiss on it. Poor Mark was about to literally pee his entire self as the rumoured boss that apparently nobody in this hospital even talked to was now standing in front of him and was also coincidentally shooting daggers towards him. Nirvana quickly retracted her hands from his grip and then signalled towards Mark, “Let us get going Mark” she smiled totally ignoring Zach, but before she could do that he forcefully grabbed her waist and pulled her closer to him. “I believe Dr Delaney has already forgotten our arrangement. I really am looking for our dinner right now Nirvana” he smirked holding her chin close. As soon as she heard that familiar tone her whole body tensed up. Nirvana was literally seeing red by now “How dare this man do this that also in front of an intern she knew!” she thought.  “Um- I- should g-get going then. I am sorry boss I did not know-“ Mark stuttered almost about to faint because the heir to the biggest medical corp was literally threatening him with subtle intentions. “No- Mark I-“ Nirvana was about to reason with him but Zachariah cut her off. “Yes you should” replied Zachariah coldly and Mark had never run so fast in his entire life as he had just done now. “s**t! Are you crazy Dr Villin!” she hissed trying to get out of his grasp but he was still holding on to her tight and was refusing to let her go. “Surely not Nirvana, but you might be as to how I am seeing you going around with filthy pups like him. I told you that you are mine! And do you intend to defy me every time because I do not really take kindly to disobedience? Now let’s go for our dinner, shall we? It's a beautiful night anyways” he said before dragging her forcefully out and the pushing her inside his car. Nirvana also could not make a scene as right then there were so many people around her and if anyhow they would have noticed him, then her entire new career would be filled with just gossips and she hated that. As soon as they got into the car, Nirvana pushed his hands away from her waist. Zachariah gripped his knuckles and held his annoyance tight. The ride had not even started, and she was already making him go crazy. He had never been so territorial and feral in his entire life before, but the woman beside him had managed to do that in just a couple of days. He would never even both with the hospital staff too but yet again she was an important role in all of that too. “This is ridiculous” Nirvana mumbled. “I assure you Dr Delaney, it is not ridiculous but rather quite the opposite of that. I, being the head of the entire corporation that you just happen to be working in am simply taking you out for a beautiful dinner on such a wonderful night as this” he calmly replied.  “I told you I do not want any part in your bullshit Dr Villin and that being I do not care if you are the biggest boss of them all.” “Language Delaney,” he slightly raised his voice threatening her to say anymore, but Nirvana was honestly just too tired and in need of a drink, and she knew that he would not let her out of the car before they had dinner, so she tried no more in provoking him. She knew exactly how to handle people like him. They soon reached the restaurant that he had picked and then Zachariah proceeded to open the door for her but she was already out of the car and glaring daggers at him. “I hope the food is good” she grumbled which made Zachariah chuckle. She was too cute at the moment and he really just wanted to kiss her senseless there, but then decided against it because he knew she would probably panic and run away again. It was as if she was a smart baby fox, innocent but at the same time ready to run away as soon as her tail gets caught on fire. He reached out his hand looking into her eyes but when she did not give hers he raised one eyebrow at her. “Fine! God!!” she exclaimed while giving out her very hesitant hand and then together they entered the restaurant. As soon as they went on to their seats, she realised that the whole restaurant was a bit too quiet for a normal one so she looked around only to see that they two were the only ones in the whole beautiful restaurant. She gasped “Why is no one here yet?” she whispered leaning forward toward him so that she may not be too loud. Zachariah looked at her awestruck face and replied “The whole restaurant’s been booked for us Nirvana. You really did not think I would bring you to a place where everything would be so busy it would be even uncomfortable to breathe right?” he replied. “I feel more uncomfortable to breathe right now” she whispered under her breath. “What was that?” Zachariah inquired raising his brow at her again. “Nothing” she quickly replied.   The waiter a young boy maybe in his 18’s soon came up to them to take on their order, but all the time his eyes were on Nirvana a bit too much for Zach’s liking. “What would you like to have Ma’am?”  “Can I get a nicely cooked steak with some Caesar salad and some rice? And also a Sparkling Apple Mocktail please?” she replied.  “Yes Ma’am” the waiter replied and then quickly wrote down the stuff that she wanted. “And you sir?” “I will get the Chateau Margaux 1787 and along with that an American Wagyu Steak well done” he replied. The waiter nodded off and then went off with their orders. “You do not drink?” Zachariah curiously asked her. This information was nowhere on the files that he had on her.  “No actually. I do not like the taste of alcohol and neither do I ever get drunk even if I try so I just stick with my mocktails” she replied. Zachariah was totally lost in the way she spoke but was disturbed by that annoying waiter again.  “Excuse me miss? Do you have anything else that you would like to order now?” he said, his eyes on Nirvana a little bit too much for Zachariah to handle. Zachariah's hands were already in a fist and the last button was when he saw Nirvana laughing and replying to that jerk. Suddenly there was a click of someone’s fingers and after that, the only sound in the restaurant was of Nirvana’s shouts and the very hard punches that Zachariah was throwing to the now helpless waiter lying on the ground.
