Daniel sat beside Cordelia on bed where she was unconscious. Seeing her , a cute smile came on Daniel's face, he checked her temperature and was totally shocked to see the fever level of Cordelia. He got up from bed and asked Niel in a serious tone,
"Niel, What is this? How much a temperature can rise of this girl? Did you over burden her with the task? She is seriously having a high fever. And if in 24 hours it does not decreases we will have to admit her in hospital, as here I can only examine her by small check ups. No more. And I am really not able to believe that you are hurting this innocent girl? This was totally unacceptable from you Niel."
Listening all this from Daniel, Niel felt bad for Cordelia also worried but then he too didn't kept his feet back and spoked up!
"Seriously? You are blaming me for this. But let me make it clear for you, she is not innocent but a stubborn girl who can risk her life for just winning anything, whether it's task or trophy. Please now you too don't fall for just her innocent face."
On Concerning this Daniel was just staring at him, and in between he took a chance for taking Cordelia out of Niel's room On which Niel was totally not agreed by his facial expressions and finally again he spoke out.
"What are you doing Daniel? Where are you taking corde?"
At which Daniel replied
"In my room because in your room she is not at all safe as instead of taking care of her you are questioning on her condition. Nevermind she will stay in my room and I will take care of her nicely unlike you!"
"No! She will be with me and I promise to take care of her without questioning. Now, let her be here please!"
Daniel's POV
Hmmm, this Niel has a secret crush on Cordelia which he too is unaware about to confess. No problem why I am here then of course to make it happen. I will make Niel confess one day and same for this Cordelia too just let her wake up and I will see talking way plus behaviour of her. But to be very honest being a little biased I really had confessed her my love if it was not Niel for her. I really seeing her just unconscious felt my heart beat rising up don't know what will happen when I will actually talk with her. But now I had dropped this thought for Niel. But will surely help him out in this. Just wait both of you.
Niel again said,
"Daniel? Will you...."
Before Niel could finish his sentence Daniel Interrupted and said,
"Yeah yeah it's ok, But on one condition."
Niel gave a questioning face and asked
"And what's that condition about?"
Daniel says,
"I will be sitting here in this room until this girl is not awake, I will only go after she is awake and having some talks with me because now too I am not fully trusting you, it's now too hold on half."
Niel made a little jealous face and said,
"Ok, now you too are guarding me no problem I will adjust myself in this too. Stay here. I am sitting on this sofa then you sit on another sofa."
Daniel agreed to him and settled on another sofa, Both Niel and Daniel's eyes were continuously staring at Cordelia although both were wet by sweat and tired. Then Niel broke the silence and said,
"My gosh! Daniel can we atleast switch down a bit temperature of heater it's becoming too hot, I will be not able survive in this hot temperature."
Daniel was himself not in stable condition but somehow he said,
"No Niel see her temperature as having this much high temperature of heater she is not sweating which means we need to wait until she gets to sweat."
Niel was feeling very suffocated where same condition was of Daniel but he was somehow adjusting, and in a while both fell into a deep sleep on the sofa itself. Although the temperature inside was very high, maybe the tiredness of both made them go into heavy sleep. While Cordelia was unconsciously sleeping, little pores of sweat were visible on her nose, chin and forehead. And slowly by slowly she was trying to take different positions, sometimes left , sometimes right and sometimes straight. Maybe because as little she sweated by looking at her face so she must be feeling a bit uncomfortable. Meanwhile both Niel and Daniel's sleep too broke at the same time. They saw Cordelia making movements, both became worried and went towards her. Niel and Daniel both were totally wet by hairs, shirt, pant, and their whole body but for the sake of Cordelia they didn't care about it minutely.
Cordelia said in half sleep,
"I am feeling hot, can anyone switch on the fan otherwise it's suffocating me" As she was repeating this continuously Daniel went to the switchboard and switched on the fan. Plus, the temperature of the heater too decreased. Getting some air, Cordelia sleep broke and she opened her eyes. She started looking at the room, Niel and Daniel too. When she saw him, Cordelia started staring at him and distracted herself while looking at him until Niel Interrupted and said,
"Are you feeling well now?" On which Cordelia didn't answer anything except her silence. Again the same question when Daniel asked.
"Hey! How are you feeling now? Cordelia."
Cordelia quickly looked at him and said,
"Barely fine from before. But how do you know my name? And if you know my name then please tell yours too!"
Daniel smiled and said,
"I am Daniel, or can say by profession a doctor. Or you can also think of me as Niel's best friend. And about your name that I got to know from Niel only as he bought you in his room. He quickly called me to check upon you."
Cordelia on hearing this was trying to step out of bed when both Niel and Daniel stopped her and Niel said,
"Why are you so stubborn corde? Why are you getting up? On knowing that your condition is not stable."
Cordelia, fuming in anger said,
"Shut Up! Enough. What is this care of yours? Did I ask for it? No! You are just…"
Before Cordelia could complete her sentence she felt dizzy!
