Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: The Promise...

Naira was panting heavily. She could feel some watery substance on her head but she didn't care now. She was only worried for the person in front of her, who was covered with blood and was taken to the ICU. She was pushing the stretcher as she held the blood-filled hand of the man lying.

"You will be okay, Hector. It will be okay." She said as she let out cries in between.

The doctors and nurses came immediately after seeing the serious condition. As they pulled the stretcher inside the ICU, Naira watched after it disappeared in front of her.

"I promise you, Hector." Is the only line Naira said, before everything went black in front of her

***An hour ago***

"Did you find anything about her?" Hector asked his secretary

"Sorry sir, but there is no hint about miss Naira. It's like she disappeared after that day." Said his secretary

"Fine, you may go."

Hector had been looking for Naira for the past 2 days. He didn't know where she went. He was worried that she disappeared just like she did 5 years ago. He was thinking all of this when suddenly his secretary barged in.

"Sorry sir for coming so abruptly, but I just found news about miss Naira. We checked the CCTV and hacked other CCTV on the road. The last place she went after here was at Mr Richard's mansion."

'Mr. Richard!!!??? Oh no!!' With that Hector took his car keys and made his way to his car.

***

Naira drove as fast as she could. She didn't know the path so well but she wanted to reach Hector's place as soon as she could. She had misunderstood him. She had believed he was a pervert but she was wrong. And now she only wanted to return and tell him this. Tell him how much she had loved him!

Just then, on the empty road, she noticed another black car. To her surprise it was Hector! She called out his name but it seemed he was too fast and focused to listen.

Naira took a halt. She took a U-turn and chased Hector as fast as she could. Judging by the speed, Naira knew that he was after her and wanted to save her. But how could she tell that she was right behind him?

Just then she noticed the left street. Due to the grassland, it was visible. And what she saw was a huge truck driving at full speed. Judging by the speed, it was sure that Hector hadn't noticed the truck yet.

Naira made her quickest calculation of the truck taking a turn within a minute. And that Hector would also pass through it within that minute.

'No!!!!' She thought and accelerated her car's speed to the maximum. As the truck was about to take a turn and dash the car, Naira came from the side and pushed her car as well as Hector's car onto the right. They didn't collide with the truck but due to the extreme force, the two cars went down the forest hill in a crash.

***

Both the cars were flipped. Naira turned her head with pain to see Hector's car crash through the nearest tall tree. With great pain, Hector turned towards Naira. His hand was outside the window. He tried his hand to move but it little moved. Naira proceeded her hand towards his and with great difficulty caught it.

"It will be okay," Naira assured

Hector gave a smile and said, "Promise me something Naira." His every sentence came out with heaviness. "Promise me... That you will lead a happy life. Fulfil your dreams. Never give up."

Tears were running down Naira's eyes.

"Don't say something like that. Nothing will happen to you. It will be fine." Naira crawled out of the car. She was hurt but not so intense.

"Promise me Naira." The words which Hector said were getting heavier.

"Hector, believe me. You will be fine. You have to be fine. After all, I still have a life to leave with you. I love you."

Hector managed another smile, "Promise..... Me" and with that he became unconscious...
