Chapter 130 - Her Hemoglobin Was 6.9. (2/2)
* * *
After we had our dinner, we moved to the bed. The next couple of hours were spent in me cuddling her closer, and just whispering sweet nothing in her ears. Somehow, I just wanted her to feel better and having her smiling so beautifully in front of me let me know that my every effort was worth it.
”Innaya.” I sat up as I suddenly remembered that I needed to talk to her. ”How have been your periods lately? Has the flow been more than it should have been?”
I watched the color of Innaya's face changing as soon as she heard me, and I was left wondering if she was not comfortable enough in sharing her intimate details with me. We had never really discussed the same.
I wanted to know her opinion. ”Should I not have asked that? Um, it's okay if you don't want to-” Before I could say anything more, Innaya interrupted me.
”It's nothing of that sort, Eshan. You are right. I have lost a lot of blood in my recent periods,” she answered but there was little hesitancy in it.
She did not even ask me how I had an idea, and I was glad that she did not. It would have just pushed me lower in my guilt zone.
My phone buzzed, and it was the WhatsApp message from the pathology Innaya's blood sample was sent in. I hurriedly opened the chat and waited for the image to load, and once it loaded, my heart sank.
Her hemoglobin was 6.9.
6.9.
I read it over and over, again and again, fixing my gaze on that number to confirm that it was actually 6.9.
Damn. Damn. Damn it.
”We have to go to Dr. Mittal's clinic,” I announced while pushing the phone in my pocket as I started getting out of the bed.
Innaya's eyes were staring at me for a really long while, but she did not speak a word. I could not understand what she was trying to figure out, but I knew that she was looking up to me to get answers to her curiosity about what it was that had me panic so much.
