Next day Daniel woke up due to the alarm and saw Rachel peacefully sleeping in his arms, not disturbed by the annoying sound.

He recollected last night and had a faint smile on his lips. 

Last night, he really troubled her a lot.

He kissed her cheeks, and carefully lifted her head and pulled his hand back, which was under her nape.

He gently made her rest on the pillow and went to get ready for work.

After an hour, he was ready to go to work, meanwhile he ordered breakfast for them and once it was delivered, he woke up Rachel.

"Five more minutes, please" She begged him in her drowsy voice.

Daniel smiled seeing her state and covered her lips with his, he pried open her mouth and entered his tongue to taste her.

Rachel woke up with a jolt due to his aggressive kiss and tasted the fresh breath coming from his mouth, she patted him on the chest, asking him to move away.

Daniel immediately moved away from her and smiled at his angry girlfriend, "Morning, Rachel"

"I didn't even brush and you are pushing your tongue down my throat?" She shouted at him.

Daniel laughed, "I tried to wake you up nicely but you didn't, so..." He moved closer to her but she glared at him warning him not to cross the line.

"Come, let's have breakfast, then you can go back to sleep" Daniel got off the bed.

"You ruined it now I can't"

"Then watch some porn videos and surprise me like last night" He teased her and Rachel's face turned red and she ran towards the washroom.

Daniel smiled seeing her actions and served food for them.

Rachel joined him back in a few minutes and they had breakfast.

Before leaving for work, Daniel warned Rachel to stay in the room and not go out as they already took a risk by letting Rachel travel after that Italy incident. 

Rachel obediently nodded her head.

"I'll be back as soon as possible" Daniel pecked her on the lips and went to the hospital to meet Mrs. Walsh, his patient. 

As soon as he reached the hospital, he was attended by the doctor in-charge of Elizabeth's case. He first took Daniel to his office and showed him all the reports.

Daniel just skimmed through them as he already studied these reports.

"Can we meet the patient?" Daniel asked this doctor who took him to Liz's room.

They knocked on the patient's room door and were greeted by her husband.

"Mr Walsh, this is Dr Daniel, Mr Ryan's student, he is the one we discussed about a few days ago and Dr Daniel, he is Mr Walsh, your patient's husband"

"Nice to meet you Mr Walsh" Daniel shook hands with William.

William, who was eagerly awaiting for this doctor was a bit surprised when he saw him, weirdly this doctor in front of him reminded him of his old friend Harry.

For the last few years, he had been living in isolation from the world and didn't meet a lot of people, so he assumed maybe whoever he is coming across is reminding him of his friends and family, so he didn't look too much into it.

Daniel on the other hand thought of Rachel, when he saw William's grey eyes, it was not very common to have grey eyes but he didn't bother himself much about it.

Mr Walsh then moved aside and the two doctors headed towards the patient who was lying on the bed in the state of coma.

Daniel stepped towards the patient and checked the monitor connected to her body, after confirming everything is normal, he looked at the woman who was lying lifelessly on the bed.

He was shocked to his core, when he saw her. 

This patient's face resembled Rachel, if Rachel grows old and reaches this woman's age then she would look a lot like her.

Daniel then turned around in surprise to look at her husband, carefully observing him, he felt he was familiar.

'What the fuck is wrong with me?' Daniel thought to himself and tried to concentrate on the patient's condition instead of letting his wild thoughts wander unnecessarily.

He checked her condition and just then some other man entered the room and Daniel looked over to see a man who looked around the same age as William stepped towards him.

"How is her condition?" Ethan asked him worriedly.

"I am checking that, you are?" Daniel never bothered about his patient's personal lives but this time he was not sure why but he was curious to know about them, maybe because this woman looks like Rachel, he told himself.

It is a common fact that there are people across the world who look a bit similar in spite of having no relation, Daniel assumed the same was the case with this woman and Rachel but somewhere he couldn't just reach this conclusion and do nothing about it.

"I am his brother." Ethan pointed at William.

Daniel just nodded his head and checked her condition.

He went through the reports and after a while he looked at William, "Her condition is fine but…"

"Doctor, I am in-charge of the patient, whatever you want to say, please discuss with me" Ethan interrupted Daniel.

Daniel was confused, "But he is her husband" He too was not sure why but he felt something was fishy here.

"Yes, but my brother is right now not in the condition to process anything as his wife is not well, so I am in-charge of everything" Ethan politely explained as all doctors asked him the same question.

"Okay, her condition is fine but the surgery is very important as it seems there is some blockage in her head, if we perform this surgery and take good care of her, there is a chance she might wake up" Daniel informed them.

"Really?" William asked him in surprise.

"Yes" Daniel confirmed.

"By when can she wake up?" Ethan too was happy with this news.
