The Traps of Black Swan

Chapter 294 - Memories



'Wait for Saturday?' Nikun really wanted to know which evil eyes laid on innocent Ava that she was avenging slowly. 'How dare he try to separate my favorite couple?' He hated the man to his bones before even knowing who he was.

Since Aaron had told him the same, Nikun didn't ask them again to tell about the person. He was nodding to respond to Aarvi when he caught Aaron's glowering eyes.

'Did a cat catch your tongue?' He thought and walked out saying, "I will just come." to give them alone time.

Aarvi hid every bit of emotion she had and snorted showing her anger for canceling the date and also left the hope of having another date the next day as he will be tired. 

Saturday, Aaron will have to catch with his pending work and in the evening they have to attend a Mirage banquet. 

Sunday, Megan invited her to the Rivas Mansion to help her with Jordan's birthday celebration arrangements.

Hence all the free days she wanted to spend with Aaron were wasted.

She had thought Aaron would be content and happiest to hear her confess, 'Everything ruined.' She thought and was leaving but Aaron stood in front of her blocking her path and tried to deeply study her reaction, "Angry?"

A pout appeared on her face.

He tried in a different way, "How about next week?"

"I am busy." Clear cut.

Anyway, she sighed unwillingly to send him on a business trip in a sour mood. 'Why do I feel like I don't even have the right to be angry?' She thought she actually tried to be really angry but she just couldn't get angry at him.

Seeing her sigh and look powerless, he took a step closer and embraced her, "Would you like to join me?" At least he could be next to her and cuddle her to sleep.

Aarvi shook her head, she wanted to meet Lara, take care of Naomi and she didn't want Aaron to keep feeling guilty for ditching the dates.

"I think we shouldn't plan a date, just prepare spontaneously when we actually get time."

Aaron hummed and shifted his hands to cup her face to look him in the eye, "Which doctor are you planning to consult?"

Aarvi: "..."

'Am I so easy to read?' She thought looking at him in her astounding eyes.

Since Aaron wasn't ready to say what is the problem with her brain, she wanted to meet neurologist Doctor Wells and also her psychologist to ask if she needs any therapy sessions.

Aaron's guess turned out to be right. He had expected him to ask many questions about her health but she showed a blind eye. He initially thought it might be because of Nikun's presence but she was leaving without asking him any questions.

He asked again, "Did you really just have the dream of cupcakes?"

Aarvi slowly shook her head, "I again got that teenager in the dream. We were having lunch from his packed lunch box on the school roof. Everything was very clear except his face and name."

Aaron didn't utter a word or showed any change in his expression. He patiently waited for her to speak everything before he could think of a solution.

Aarvi continued why she wanted to consult a doctor, "I want to know if I have any concussion or any problem in my nerve system, I mean my stupid brain."

Aaron knew Aarvi would have met Doctor Wells for it. 

Aarvi continued, "If they aren't just dreams, I thought Doctor Bradley could clear my thoughts. If they are just dreams, why am I getting them? Am pushing my limits?"

It wasn't just a dream but their past. Aaron knows she was too confused and she was stressing herself more due to it.

"Aaron, I feel like I have lost some of my memories whenever I get this dream. But I can't make out what it can be." Aarvi pressed her forehead due to the same sharp pain hitting her nerves.

Aaron sat on the edge of the desk pulling her closer to him and faced her, "Do you trust me?"

"Huh?" A confused tone spilled her lips before she responded firmly, "I do." She wasn't distrusting Aaron, her physician, but she felt like he might be hiding her health condition to stop her from worrying about it.

"Then please stop thinking about what you don't remember. I don't want to risk your health. Repeated loss of consciousness might lead to severe illness, then I won't let you go out alone or drive."

Aarvi blinked a few times thinking about it. 'Stop thinking about what I don't remember.' She never got a headache during the times of her nightmare. She hated even a dream that didn't let her live in peace.

She already doesn't like the Shadow team following her around for her safety which makes her feel constantly being monitored so she obviously won't like it if she can't step out alone.

Aarvi understood if she keeps fainting trying to fetch the memory of what she doesn't have an idea about, she might one day faint while driving the car. It won't only risk her life but the passerby too.

"Alright, I'll forget the dreams as dreams without thinking too much." Aarvi was determined. She can't fret over dreams when she has a lot to care about and plan. 

Aaron who checked the calendar added, "Since your regular check-up time is closer, go and meet Doctor Wells, you can ask her and get your queries cleared. Next week, I will take you for a complete body checkup and make sure there are no other issues."

Aarvi whined hearing a complete body checkup. "How long do I have to live like a patient?" It had so many types of tests and screening, she was not even comfortable in some.

Pulling her soft cheeks he made her look at him before revealing, "Last I guess. There are no side effects of the medication so after this check, you don't have to worry for three years. Unless…"

Aarvi's smile brightened understanding that her health is stable. Hearing unless, she continued patting his shoulder, "Yeah yeah, I will take care of your sister's heart."

Aaron flicked on her head hearing 'your sister's heart.'

Aarvi pecked on his cheek, she continued her words taking steps to leave, "If I get to know Leon took you away, I won't panic. Instead, I will suggest Leon rip your clothes off and have fun with you by changing his sexual orientation"

Aarvi giggled standing by the door looking at the darkened face of Aaron who couldn't believe she even thought of it. "Aarvi Evans, come here and now." He dictated.

However, "Many girls could be saved." Aarvi continued to chortle causing him to squint his sharp eyes on her. 

He took a step towards the door expecting her to run away but she ran into his arms giving him no chance to punish her, "Will you be back on Saturday?"

"I will dine with you tomorrow." He planted a kiss on her forehead before seeing her off.

Nikun walked Aarvi to the elevator and bid her goodbye before entering Aaron's office.

He heard Aaron's indifferent tone instructing someone over a call, "... She should pay for it… Before I board the plane..."

Nikun sighed seeing his friend being ruthless as ever without an ounce of pity on Naomi.
