It began on a certain day, when she went back to Durban to fight for her career again, she sneaked on her old campus and slept there at the 24hr study. Next morning, she bathed at the sport centre and made her way to her new campus to confirm the firm offer for medical studies. She'd never been so nervous yet excited that finally a second chance was upon her.

When she finished the proceedings at the campus, she was then told now she has to wait for registration day so happy, she prayed silently and made her way to her old campus to sleep again. Next day, it was Saturday so she decided before she heads home, she ought to visit the congregation so she did, not long the meeting was over but worse for her was yet to come.

Afterwards, she made her way back to her old campus, but not long as she left, she felt dizzy, she overestimated her fatigue, when all things started she saw a shadowy figure and called out for help. " Hello there, if you can hear me help, I..." she collapsed in the estranged young man's arms without finishing the sentence.

Moments' later, 5hours to be exact, she woke up hooked to IV-fluids in a warm, comfy bed which happened to be in one of Durban's finest hotel, but how she came to be here ? Who is the estranged man whom saved her ?

She slowly opened her eyes, looking down besides her, her saviour's eyes met hers and with a smile, "welcome back, you had me worried, I'm Nhlaka" he said as he came over to her bed. "I'm Nolitha, where am I? What happened?" she asked panicky. He took her hand and hold it firmly reassuring her, she collapsed and he took her to his place to recuperate.

True to his words, earlier as she collapsed in his arms, he took her to his car and drove to his hotel room and had called emergency healthcare off-book to avoid the necessity information. The doctor attended to her, giving her vitamins, put her on drip then told him to let her rest and she's out of danger.

The doctor got paid for his services with a promise to not utter any information about this and will comeback in two days time to check upon her. He told her this and she was taken at such compassion but then started to wake up and took off the drip, slowly thanking him for saving her life but she's got to leave. She tried standing but to weak then he rushed to her side, supported her fall and advice her to take it easy as the sedatives are still in her body she must still rest.

He told her that the doctor told him to take care of her till he comes back and then she can leave. Though, adamant she felt that her body wasn't ready to move so she agreed to recuperate. "Please pass over my cell need to tell my family won't be coming back today" she politely asked and he gave her, her backpack. She called her family and told them that she collapsed and will recuperate and will be staying with her friends for awhile before she comes back. They wished her speedy recovery and hope to see her soon.

"at a friend's ? " he said smiling, she picked a pillow and threw at him then slept. He was somehow relieved to her cooperating and as he watched her silently sleeping, he was seemingly taken not long he brought himself together and left the room to attend to his affairs with a silent promise that he'll make her dinner.

He went to his room to finish his work on his laptop. Moments later he went back to check up on her and she was still heavily sedated, with a curious look on his face, he reached for her backpack and went through it's contents. There was her laptop, her clothes, her book draft amongst other things, he read the book draft.

He was fascinated with her writing and got to know a little about her, such her full name and likes. She was named Nolitha Thwala and he was named Nhlakanipho Hadebe. He finished reading and went to the kitchen and made dinner. He came to leave the food by her bedside with a little bell button near a note 'ring if you need anything' and left for his room.

Hours later, she woke up saw the dinner, arrange herself to eat but she found it hard to move so she yelled 'help', he came rushing and when she told him about it, he offered to feed her, she became reluctant to agree. He told her, she can either starve or open her mouth while tasting it and saying yummy to make her interested.

She obliged and being fed, she thanked him. He gave her the bell and her meds then told her to rest. She jokily said, "yes doctor" , he let out a grin and left the room. After prayer, the sedatives let her rest again.
