CHAPTER 2:- A Night With Strainger

AAISHA

I was walking home last night from café as usual, the familiar chill of the city crept into my bones,even tho the area was known for its posh residents, I wasn't entirely free from fear. In fact, a single thought haunted me - theft. Dad, Rohan and Tushar don't give a shit about my safty but feared losing their inheritance if anything happened to me because if it did all of my property will go to trust! My phone, with its hidden tracker, was a constant reminder of my father's and brothers watchful eyes detecting my evry move and thell kill me if I go anywhere else except my café and home!

The luck was also on my side as this area was quiter than usual and I could hear my footsteps louder and it was really cold!

As I reached the final turn, the silence of the night was broken by a guttural groan. My heart lurched, someone was growning with pain. My heart pounded in my chest as I looked around....

I saw movement behind the trash bins! my legs trembled as I took steps towards the bins.... And as I peaked I coulden't believe what my eyes just witnessed....

a tall figure of a man on ground .......and ... there was blood....

my hands were shaking as I gently reached out and touched his shoulder and turned him around.

Fear warred with compassion within me. He was badly injured, He was shot! his face a mask of blood and bruises. His white shirt, now crimson, clung to his body, revealing a glimpse of expensive clothing beneath.

Hesitantly, I approached him. ""Hello?" I whispered, my voice barely a tremor, my hands trembling as I gently touched his face His skin was cold beneath my fingertips, his body racked by tremors.

He mumbled incoherently, his voice weak "Leave...go..." he rasped, pushing me away while trying to get up!

"Who are you?" I persisted, trying to understand his words and trying to help him stand up!

"o my god! I have never seen soo much blood I felt sick to my stomach I almost threw up! and I started to panic he will die if he soon didn't get any help!

I have to get myself together " hey can you here me? I said gently slapping his face with one hand and other hand on his shoulder for support! Hey? do you have number of anyone whom I can call? Come on? Hey look at me can you open your eyes?"

He was trying so hard to open his eyes but he lost so much blood his body is getting cold!

"Ahhh .... go.... Leave me!!" He said while taking off my hand from his shoulders

"please you have to give me anything number of your parents or friends?"

"they...kill...you..." he murmured,

"did he just say kill?" His words sent shivers down my spine, but my concern for him outweighed my fear. I needed to get him help, but how? The street was deserted, and calling an ambulance would only draw unwanted attention.

"Leave,..... get....out......they...."

he collapsed he was not able to speak or stand properly!

Just then, an idea sparked in my mind. I had my water bottle I instantly took it out and splashed his face with water and made him drink some too! I know it wasn't the best thing to do but it was the only way to get him talk! The water made his wounds seem clear and his face-..... dammm he's....

This man is goregious! {you can improvise what does he look like except he will have dark green eyes}

Okay Aaisha! You have to focus! Alright he seemd to be in conscious but he still can't open his eyes! Oaky I have to look for a ride! As I was getting up looking for a car or anything I felt a tight grip on my arm it was him and he pulled me closer to his face His eyes fluttered open, startling me with their depth and intensity - a mesmerizing shade of green that held a flicker of vulnerability amidst the pain. For a moment, I forgot my fear, lost in the depths of his gaze! his hair was in front of his eyes with drops of water which was shining like diamonds in moonlight! he was putting so much pressure to open his green eyes which were very tempting and his grip was really tight even tho he was injured and weak!

"leave!......" he rasped his voice deep and serious!

He kept his other hand on his wound and growned with pain and while getting up using my arm he gripped "Leave!...go...get out of hear!" he said, pushing me away with surprising strength despite his injuries.

walking away he continued "your putting yourself in danger get the fuck out of here! Thell kill you if you stayed!"

What the fuck is he talking about? im not just gonna leave an injured man in this state in the middle of the road to die!

As I again took a glance at him he was almost going to fall I instantly rushed towards him and grabbed him, he was shaking with cold as his shirt was compleately soaked in blood he was continuesly loosing blood he was barly able to stand so I made him setal down on the ground I cant have it any other way! i have to help him somehow!.......

"Okay! i'm gonna need you to listen to me i'm gonna have to cover wounds on your head and shoulder I am taking off your coat, Okay? as I approached for his coat he grabbed my hand making me flinch!

"I think told you to leave!" he said breathing heavily in his deep voice!

"i'm not leaving an injured man in the middle of the road to die!" I said

"Who says i'm going to survive if you took me to hospital anyway?" He said

"Well you can die in hospital then, but not hear in front of my eyes on street and i'm not leaving you!"

his green eyes, now filled with a mixture of pain and gratitude, held my gaze.

"Why?" he finally asked, his voice barely a whisper.

"Because," I began, my voice firm despite the tremor in my hands, "no one deserves to die alone in the cold empty street."

His eyes widened, a surprised flicker sparking within them before he quickly averted his gaze. The tension in his body eased slightly, replaced by a hesitant curiosity a fleeting glimpse of the man beneath the hardened facade. He closed his eyes, succumbing to the exhaustion and pain that had finally claimed him He stared at me for a moment, his expression unreadable. Then, slowly, he released his grip...

As I carefully removed his coat, my fingers brushed against a hard object tucked beneath his belt. My breath caught in my throat as I recognized it -

damm it.. it was a gun!

My eyes lit yup as I realized he was no ordinary man! I took it out and put in on the ground beside him trying to egnore the fact that i'm with a injured stranger with a gun and i'm the only one who witnessed his condition and I got my hand prints on the gun I can be easily framed for this if this is a murder!

"Scared of me now?" He said huskly and my breath hitched but I got composed again

"I don't care if you have gun or a missile or if you're the most wanted criminal i'm not leaving you here to die!" I answered

.........

I was completely focused on thinking about how to stop bleeding from his wounds

"Okay i'm gonna need you to stay awake okay? stay up try not to close your eyes!" I took of his coat saying this to which he nodded.

My main goal was to keep him busy in talking and keep him awake "who did this to you?"

"Whoever did it what are you going to do about it?" he said

"has to be some reason they want you dead so bad!"

"Money! Money is the reason and its enough....... Enough to make anyone your enemy!"

My heart skipped a beat as I understood every single word he said my hands stopped turns out were in a same state!

I let out a breath and grabbed my scarf and tore it into two strips.With trembling hands, I tied one around his forehead, applying pressure to the gash that marred his skin. The other I wrapped around his shoulder but it was not enough I have to staunch the flow of blood from his stomach. His skin was icy cold, and his shivering intensified my fear.

"Okay! Oh god your shaking! I have to take of your shirt as well!"

I reached to open buttons of his shirt

"Don't try to take advantage of me!"

present day-;

amy-Im sorry!! He said what?

"Yea can you fucking believe this shit! H was injured on the verge of dying and i'm not sure why he said that, and i'm not even sure if he flirted or he geniuanly said it!"

"Man he already seems hot how did he looked?" Amy asked

Well he had dark green eyes! I must say he was gorgeous!

"Okay! okay okay! back to topic what happened after that!??"

Last night;-

"First you took my coat off then you want to take my shirt off! Whats next?"

"you are losing blood and shaking with cold please! i'm trying to help!"

He stared at me for a long moment, his expression a mask of raw emotions. Then, slowly, he released his grip, a flicker of trust replacing the suspicion in his green eyes.

With cautious hands, I unbuttoned his blood-soaked shirt, His body was sculpted and strong,revealing the extent of his injuries. A deep gash marred his shoulder, he had 3 bullets shots in his stomack the crimson stain spreading like a dark stain across his pale skin. His stomach, too, bore the mark of violence, the angry red wound a stark contrast to the taut muscles beneath.

My breath caught in my throat as I examined the wounds, the reality of his situation sinking in.

With urgency pounding in my chest, I tore a strip from my long skirt. As I knelt beside him. Drawing closer, I gently covered the wound, my fingers delicately tracing the edges, the fabric pressed against his skin he had 3 bullet shots on his abdomen as I was wrapping the stirp and I have to tie it at the back....

as I got more close I felt his breath on my neck, he was really cold ofc he was losing blood I felt a shiver run through me, not just from the cold touch of his skin, but from The closeness!! It... felt weard! making the situation incredibly awkward.

I mean, you find a stranger on the road, undress him, and now, you're this close-yet, his injury changes everything...

"Okay Aaisha you gotta focus! Think! What do i do?"

Right now, all I can do is sprint home, make it in five minutes, grab someone's car keys- whoever's available-rush him to the hospital,

Fuck! The tracker on my phone?! I forgot about that! I gotta ditch my phone at home so Dad won't interrogate me later. I can't believe I'm worrying about that now!! But seriously I cant afford any more problems!

I turned to him he was trying his best to stay up I grabbed his shoulder shaking him I said "Listen, stay awake! I'll get my brother's car, ill try to be back as soon as I can! Don't go anywhere, don't faint. Try your best, okay?"

I patted his cheeks "Hey? Did you heard me? Do not faint!"

"Don't worry princess Worse things have happened"

Did he called me--- nevermind...

As I got up his hand, surprisingly strong, shot out, grasping my wrist pulled me closer he was looking right at me! A flicker of gratitude shone in his eyes.

he handed me the gun , its cold metal searing against my palm I looked at the gun and then him!

"Take it," he ordered, his gaze unwavering. "You'll need it."

My breath hitched. Oh god i'm in trouble aren't I?!

Fuck it! I don't have any time to think it through, im afraid he need medical attention now! so I immideatly stashed the gun in my bag and took it with me!

I reached home sooner than I thought, but shit my legs are trembling I can't breath! And the releaf of reaching home didn't lasted long! my heart sank as I found no cars in sight, not even in the garage.

"fuck! What now?" . I hurriedly stashed my phone at my desk and sprinted to the usual key spot only to find them absent.!!

"They are still not fucking back home?" I muttered, putting the hair strands at the back of my ear which were completly soaked in sweat and blood! I immideatly wiped the blood and sweat out of my face with my sleeves I coulden't care less about anything now!

Panic surged through me "Shit! I have to go back damm it!, I should've called for ambulance!" I instantly ran out of house almost slipping on the wet ground I sprinted towards the street where I found him.....

"Please be conscious! Please be conscious! I can't do this alone!"

My frustration grew as I drew closer and closer, my breaths heaving in urgency! Thanks to those assholes I can run fast! But I have to take a moment to get my breath back!

I held my knee with my both hand as I felt that they are gonna fall off! I was taking deep breaths! But then loud clamouring and thudding drew my attention and I instantly ran towards the sound . There, bathed in the harsh glare of a streetlamp, a chilling sight unfolded. He was alone, surrounded by menacing figures, getting assaulted. taking brutal hits! Their blows rained down, each landing with a sickening thud.

My heart thundered a primal scream as I sprinted towards them, my voice ripping through the night: "hey! Leave him alone"

There were 4 of them they were looking like robbers but normal robbers dosn't assault they just take whatever they can and flee, there is one thing that's crystal clear whatever is happening is personal!

"stay away from him" I charged towards them, aiming to shield him. But before I could reach, a vice-like grip seized my shoulders

"woah,woah,woah! Looks like someone got a girlfriend!" the man said who was holding me from my shoulder, wrenching me backwards!, then I saw him one of the robber who was holding him from his hair my heart sank as I saw this....

"mm hmmm A real pretty one to be honest! He said turning towards me and letting go off his hair which made him fall on ground and I lost it!

"Stop it!" I said hitting the man behind me from my elbow and sprinted towards him but sudden slap on my cheek made me stumble on ground!

"You really got some nerve!" He said gripping my hair and he again slapped me as he stood up, I knew what was coming next, all of this wasn't new for me the assaults the slaps the kicking!

I knew he was about to kick me and I braced myself because there was nothing else I can do, I closed my eyes as he lifted his leg and waited.....

Its been a few seconds...... then I snapped open my eyes I heard a thud as a sharp air touched my body! I saw that man on the ground and him standing in front of me, covered in blood, his gaze dark fixed on them!

"lay another finger on her and see what happens!" he said anger dripping from his tone!

He was in no condition to fight! how is he standing on his own?" I thought to myself and he looked at me his gaze was dark but again snapped looked back as one of the robbers charged towards him and he instantly punched him down!

This man has unbelievable strength! But he cant hold them off for long I......I have to do something think come on! Think!

He struggled to fend them off, rising despite his weakness, but soon succumbed, collapsing once more. My heart raced with a mixture of fear and rage. I again heard a loud thud! I instantly turned only to find him again on the ground gettijg brutual kicks and punches!

No... no.... this cant be happening what do I do? No!!

Gun! The gun he gave me!

I instantly snapped it out of my bag and fired a warning shot into the air, making them flinch, and him fall.

They immideatly stopped one of them slowly started taking slow steps towards me "okay! okay put that down!"

"Stay where you are!!" I yelled

Another one of them of them said cautiously. "there is no need for gun!." Putting their hands up!

I think you guys need to leave! I said kepping the gun steady!

We don't want trouble" one of the robber said taking out his car keys and slowly stepping backwards!

I instantly ordered "Hand those over" pointing the gun at the keys! In order to get him to the hospital

He just gazed at me rage brimming in his eyes and then his friends

"I will not repeat again!" I said trying to sound brave!

he tossed the keys to me

"Which one is your car?" I demanded, my voice shaking with urgency, eyes darting between him on the ground and the assailants who'd turned into cowards.

One of them pointed toward the car!

I backed up and reached him his whole body was trmbling he will not be able to stand even if I helped!

I looked at them and ordered "help him to the car!"

They all looked at each other!

"I said help him get to the car!" I exclaimed

two of them approached him and help him stood up other one opened the car door and the other one just stood there still I guess he was helpless and I was ten steps away from them watching their every move! my hands trembling with the weight of the situation.

"You robbed him?" I asked the one who was standing there

"Yes!" He answered

"Return his stuff!" I said thinking that maybe I could find some information about him and contact his family...

"What?" he said it sounded more like a warning

"I said.... Return his stuff that you robbed" and pointed the gun towards him

"Okay okay okay!" he openend his bag...

"Quickly!" I said , adrenaline and fear fueling my every move

He quickly took out everything he had his wallet his watch his gold ring and chain I quickly took all the stuff from him with cautions and With a pounding heart, I got inside slammed the door to close and sped away from the scene,

I heard their fain rasps they were saying some really nice words

"don't ever think you'll get away from this!"

"we will find you and make you pay!!"

"you and that motherfucker will pay!"

But the echoes of their vulgarities faded into the distance.

"I can't believe I did this!"

I mean I get assaulted by my father at home! and I stole a car from some randam robber to save a straingers life!? I thought to myself

"must say your really brave!" he remarked from the back seat.

"Believe me im not! I answered," I replied, shaken by the unfolding events.

"What happened to your car?" he inquired.

"No one was home, not even dad, Surprisingly, those assholes backed off just because of a gun!! Oh man!! I just realized there was only one bullet which I fired in the air!" I expressed with a mix of disbelief and relief.

"He chukled"

I glanced at him from the front mirror!

"How can you laugh in this condition!?"

"this is not my first time princess! I was able to do alot of things when I was in worse condition!"

"how many times have you been shot!? I asked

"several times and most of them were by my girl----"

"That's enough thanks!.." I cut him off "who are you? and who tf shot you this time?"

"Why so curious? Are you my guardian angel or something?" He said his tone flirty and unserious!

After a few seconds he answered "My enemies!.... My enemies shot me!" his voice weaker then before...

"Your enemies?"

"Yes!" After a pouse he continued "and this reminds me you don't put yourself in danger so blindly for a complete strainger!"

"as I said I coulden't have just left you there to die!" I answered

He scoffed "so pure of heart are you?" he rasped

"anyway I hope you got your answer princess!"

"I am not a princess!" I said....

"Then who are you?" He asked his tone changed... its more dark completely opposite of the flirty sweet tone he was using a second ago....

"Why are you doing this really? tell me? What are they offering you in exchange?" he again asked.

I had no idea what is he talking about "Im sorry what?"

"Oh cut this crap already!" he inturuppted "Tell me who do you work for?

"who? I don't know wha----"

"Its dad isen't it? tell him that I already had enough of his bodyguards and now hes sending femail once?, his completely lost it!" he growned with pain!

I glanced at him from the mirror! "okay please don't force yourself to talk just try to stay awake were almost there!"

"Don't worry your gonna get paid even if I died today!" he said

"is he saying I am saving him for money?" I had enough now "Okay! first of all I don't even know you! then how am I suppose to know your dad!!? And please I don't want your money?"

"Everyone! Every single person wants my money!" he exclaimed pain and anger brimming in his voice "Everyone betraide me for my money!"

"I have enough money for lifetime, im not some poor city girl or a gold digger! my mom was a billionare!" I said in order to make him shut up!

There's been silence from the back and now Its been quiet too long now! I instantly turned back "Hey! Hey! Were almost there don't you fuking die on me!" I said

"Im up!!.. I guess im not gonna die today! since I found someone who is so determined to save my life... don't worry princess im not going to break your little heart!" he rasped his voice bairly above a wisper

"But really tell me? why so much care about me is it because im hot!?"

This man! no wonder why they tried to kill him! "Look I did it for the sake of humanity okay! no one deservs to die alone! And to be honest I did it for my sake I was the only one saw you there, I really don't want to be the one to answer your family! And whoever works for you! I wonder how your dad is if your like this? I don't want to answer to anyone close to you! im just gona get you to hospital and then im done with you!"

"But im not!" He said his tone sharp and serious!

"What?" I questioned furowing my brows, surprised by his statement glancing at him from the mirror...

"I said im not done with you!, now that you didn't left my side after all that your stuck with me! "He repeted

I looked at him his intimidating green eyes met mine he was looking deep in my eyes his gaze was so strong but the situation was way to serious hes probably losing his conscious I have to focus on road! I pretended I didn't heard anyting...

"Were almost there" I said to change the topic....

My eyes darted across the stuff the robbers returned in order to find something uselfull and then they cought a glance of his wallet! I searched his wallet momentarally driving and kepping my eye on road! I found hi id which only confermed his name Arjun!

"That's it? what kind of card is this? only his name?" I mumbled

I searched his coat in order to find his phone! its missing?.....

"shit!! A-Arjun? I gasped, my voice tight with a rising tide of worry. "Are you up?"

"I told you im not gonna die today!...." he said gazing at my soul with his brimming dark green eyes which were shining! In the streetlight and moon

"im sorry your phone is missing!.. how am I suppose to contact your family? Do you remember anyones number?"

"Did you searched for my phone in coat?"

"Yess" I answered glancing at him from the mirror

He sighed "Rule no 24 for billionaires ,Keep a spare phone hidden in shoes" he rasped with a smirk and a flicker of mischief returning to his eyes

he took out his phone from his left shoe and handed me

Relief washed over me, mingled with a surge of admiration for his resourceful foresight. "I gotta remember this" I said taking the phone from him!

it was already unlocked. Four numbers stared back at me, their purpose unknown. Hesitantly, I dialed the first one.

Just as the call was answered the voice form the other end made me flinch "You son of a bitch! your fuking alive? you know how fucking worried I am! where the fuck are you are you?

"u..ah... Hello!.....yess.... umm..... I have your friend!" I don't know how to talk!

..... Wtf!! What? who the fuck are you? what did you do to him? What do you want? tell me your demands? He better be alive!

"No!! no! no!!... you got it wrong! Ahh... Im sorry I um.. I found him in he middel of road im taking him to angela hospital I just called to inform!"

"Hospital? is he okay?" he asked geneuan concern brimming on his tone...

"Im afraid not he got several bullet shots!" I answered

"This mother fucker! Ill kill him myself if he survives! Ill be on my way to hospital! You stay with him and be ready to face the consiquences if your involved into any of this! saying this he hunged up!"

"You guys have some serious nerve!" I said Turning to Arjun

Dry chukle left his mouth "You can say that again" he said, his gaze fixed on the approaching lights of the hospital.

I stoped the car as we entered the compound...

I opended the car door and rushed to help him out, my eyes widened as saw him getting out of the car by himself and as a result he was about to fall , I had to hold him...

"What the fuck are you doing?" I said as he fell right into my shoulders!

He was taking deep breaths which were tickling my kneck and my hands were on his bare back!

moments before fainting he rasped "why are your arms so fucking comfortable!" a husky chuckle escaping his lips, sent a tingle down my spine...

He collapsed on my arms!! "arjun!?? Hey Shitt! Hey!... Arjunn?"

one of the compounder saw us and he immindiatly got the stracher and helped him laying down on the stretcher he held my hand , I did too I don't know why I was soo worried?

As we reached inside there were 10 doctors standing it was almost like they were waiting for him! every single doctor attendd to him watching him surrounded by a flurry of white coats, a silent army mobilized for battle, I felt a wave of relief wash over me.

"Hes getting critical take him in and they took him in the ICU" one of the doctor said and instantly made their way from the middle of other patients and doctors!

I followed them I still held his hand the sterile landscape of the ICU, with its rhythmic beeping and stark fluorescent lights, felt colder than any alleyway.

As we were about the enter inside the icu but suddenly felt a tight grip in my arms pulling me back my hand slipped away from his....

"you can't go inside!" he was a doctor, he removed his glasses as he spoke "don't worry he will be okay we have one of the best doctors inside!"

"Th---thankyou!" I said I was so out of breath

"Who are you? how do you know him?" he asked

"i...I don't know him," I managed, my voice surprisingly steady. " I found him injured"

"we got a call from his friend regarding his condition!"

well this explains why they were so ready to treat him! "right!" I said

"are you okay?" He asked with serious concern

I looked at him and then my heart skipped a beat as I saw my reflection at the glass door, my clothes were muddy and bloody my hands were bloody my hair my face my neck "oh no I am fine its all his blood I hope hell be okay!"

"you got a bruice on your face?" he said

"im fine! Really its him you sould be worring about!" I said

"There are 10 doctors and all specialists he will be okay!" he said grabbing some sort of cream from tray nearby "hear! Apply this with this cotton the marks will be gone by morning!" he said handing the cream and cotton to me!

"Thank you" I said and finally asked "do you know him? who the hell is he?"

He smiled frowning his brow in amusement "he is Arjun singhaniya..."

My breath hitched "Wait--? Do you mean The Arjun Singhaniya?"

"yes the bussines tycoon!" he added

"Oh my god! How-....w-what? I don't understand?" I stammered!

"Well people in his field have a lot of enemies unfortunatly money is our biggest need and biggest enemy but to be honest I think There is something much more going on then business!" he muttred

"anyway I am doctor Harsh!" he continued

"H-hello Dr harsh I am Aai---...

"doctor jacob! we require blood immidiatly he lost a lot of blood" one of the nurse came out in hurry

"whats the problem?" he asked

The blood group is O+!" she said

"Shit!" he muttered

I looked at him "is there any problem?" I asked

"We don't have O+ here! We ran out it will be arriving hear no sooner then tomorrow even if we ordered!" he said running his hand on his hair

"I am O+!" I said

He looked at me with hopefull gaze "you sure?"

"I am!"

"Amazing! nurse take her! and run the test and prepare for transfer!"

"Right sir!" She said and thankfully I was o positive I had my doubts but everything went amazing with blood transfer! They took my blood In 2 bottles saying that's all I can give thankfully they found another patient with the same blood group and also arranged 1 more bottle!

I was applying the serum to the bruice on my face I glance at hospital watch it was 2;30 in the morning

"Shit! I can't get more late then this I have to go back or else im dead!"

Doctor Harsh came out from icu and offered a reassuring smile approaching me "He's out of danger now, thanks to your quick thinking. But he's still unconscious, needs some observation."

A wave of relief washed over me, so potent it made my legs wobble. "That's... that's good," I stammered, " no one from his family showed up I don't think I should leave him alone!"

"You've done more than enough! Rest assured, his family will be arriving In the meantime, why don't you get some rest yourself? There's a waiting room downstairs."

Rest?. The word held a foreign allure, yet the thought of leaving him, even for a moment, felt like a betrayal. My gaze drifted back to him, from the door window of icu he was surrounded by specialists!

"Can I... can I just stay here?" I pleaded, my voice barely a whisper. "Maybe write him a letter? To keep him company, until he wakes up..."

The doctor surprised me with another smile. "Of course," he said. "He could probably use a dose of good wishes"

"thank you I said With a grateful nod, I settled into a corner, my diary becoming my shield against the sterile white walls. Pen scratching against paper, I poured my heart onto the page, he seemed pretty disappointed by his family members trying to kill him but you have to stay hopefull right maybe my letter will give him a hope to believe in life!

Just as I finished the letter I heard lots of cars approaching and so many men with black coat got out!

I understood that they are there for him! one of the guys asked the doctors about Arjun and they all approached towards the icu I was sitting in the corner to find out if they were there to kill him or save him and the I saw an old man approaching I instantly knew he was his dad Rajendra Singhania! Hes known for his good heart and his mastermind in business....

I was about to go and talk to one of the guards but then I glanced at the hospital clock it was nearly 3 oh god I can't get more late they already will be at home already okay! So without wasting any more time I decided to leave from the hospital

As I was walking outwards the exit I saw doctor Harsh outside the icu "I think I should ask him about his condition before leaving!"

"Doctor? how is he?" I asked!

"Oh hes out of danger now! thanks to you! but still his condition needs to be taken care of!! Anyway did you met his dad? he must be very thankful for you! you also gave him your blood!?"

"Oh I should be at home already doctor! I really can't stay anymore I have to leave!..". I said

"But don't you think you should meet them?" he said frowning

"Ill rather not! they already seem worried! I think I better leave..... umm do you think you can give him this letter when he will wakes up?!" I asked

"Sure thing maybe you can visit tomorrow and meet them!"

"Ill try thank you doctor byee" saying this I rushed out of hospital......... Leaving the ICU felt like stepping out of a dream, the bustling city air a welcome slap of reality. Yet, a part of me lingered in that sterile room, I drove toward home with the car I just stoled! My mind was blank it was only praying for his safety, and god!! I couldent get his intimidating glare his dark green brimming eyes out of my head!

I stoped the car the same place where I took it from I got off and ran towards home I saw there car in the parking but the house was dead quiet form the inside...

I sneaked myself inn from the back door it was quiet, The echo of my heartbeat seemed to fill the empty house, a stark contrast to the eerie silence that clung to the air.

I tiptoed up the stairs, with my shoes in my hand trying my best not to make any sound, each creaking floorboard a gunshot in the night. My eyes darted from shadow to shadow due to the fear of them seeing me in this condition because I don't have any energy left for explanation and to prove myself!

Reaching my room, I closed the door with a trembling hand, the click a deafening scream in the stillness taking a deep breath "oh thank god!" I mumbeled walking towards bathroom......

I took off my light pink top which was completely soaked in his blood and mudd and the skirt which I teared it was also muddy and bloody

"these clothes are not even worth washing" I mumbeled throwing them in dustbin, I instantly jumped into shower washed off all that blood from my hair and my whole body, the memory of his rough grip sending a fresh wave of nausea rolling through me, The shower's hot spray became a shield, washing away the grime and clinging fear in equal measure also providing a releaf to that bruice on my cheekbone!

I grabbed the towel from the rack nearby and dried my body and put on my comfy top and lower and came out of bathroom

"ahh my bed!" it was looking way too comfortable right now and I just collapsed on bed and I don't think it took me even 10 seconds to fell asleep........

Doctor Harsh took a glance at Aaisha who was stepping out of hospital and then gazed back at the reports of Arjun!

"Hello doctor, can we meet the girl who brought Mr. Singhaniya here?" one of the guard approached him and asked

The doctor, eyes darting about nervously, stammered, "Oh, she just left, she was in a hurry!"

"What?" the guard's voice cracked, laced with urgency. "Where did she go?"

The doctor, frowning his brow in suspecious, pointed towards the exit. "There she is!" he hissed, his voice barely audible over the hospital hum.

But it was too late. Aaisha, a blur of determination, was already halfway to her car,

"Miss! Wait!" the guard exclaimed running after her His voice, amplified by the sterile acoustics of the hospital lobby.....

The atmosphere was too loud for rose to hear him!, adrenaline erasing the clatter of emergency carts and hushed whispers.

"Damn it!" he roared, his voice echoing through the room.

The doctor, caught between them and trapped by panic, stammered, "I... I didn't know she was important. She just said she found him on the street."

The guards' stares were like ice picks digging into his spine. He knew, with a chilling certainty, that this girl's disappearance was only the beginning of a storm.
