Chapter 3 - Recovery

''luke , i am going to bring kaly back no matter the cost '' 

''pfffttttt'' aneil let out a laugh.

''kids this days thinking that their heroes and that they can do whatever they want''aneil said ''kid this not a fairy tale where you can play the mighty prince, just look at yourself you say u want to save someone when you cant even save your own self'' he said with a smirk

''so what i am just going to allow my sister to be taken away like that'' i responded angrily

''so tell me what your plan , kid '' he said

'' i -i don't know yet'' i said

''just what i expected, no plan and here you are making stupid declaration and vows''

''its not stupid '' i said getting up '' i am going to do something about it''

''and get yourself killed ''he said while walking up to me . '' aneil stop it'' olive said

''the lest you can do is to tell the cops but that incident happened one month ago'' he stood right in front of me , he the leaned closer to my face 

''kid , give it up already.'' he said 

''my name is kharis , and i am not giving up ''i said standing my ground

'' well then kharis i hope you understand one day'' he said as he left

''am sorry kharis but i got to go , but if u need anything just call me '' she handed me a card before leaving 

'' who knew he could be so cold jerk'' luke said '' what's he's problem leaning into peoples face like that , what if he has bad breath'' luke said more concerned at aneil actions than his words.

''kharis are you okay'' he said approaching towards me 

''he's right'' i said '' what?'' 

''all he said was right'' '' i dont have a plan , even if i tell the cops would they even be able to find her , i'm here thinking about saving someone , when i couldn't even save my self. if the ambulance was not come early at the incident am sure i would be dead'' i couldn't see clearly because of the tears filled up in my eyes.

but before i could continue luke pulled me into a hug 

'' calmed down ,lets think about recovering first then will think about a plan'' he said so gently enough to comfort me from my guilt

'' okay '' i then went to lay down on the bed

'' luke could you , stay with me till i sleep '' i said embarrased

'' girl i never intended on leaving '' he said 

'at least his company will help stop me overthinking' i thought

Outside The room

Normal POV

''aniel would you hold up, were are you rushing to'' olive said and held aneil s hand 

'' yes , is there a problem'' he said

'' yeah , there is a big one '' '' why did you act up like that over there'' she said 

'' what you mean telling a kid that she should take life more seriously'' aneil said while raising his voice

'' it seemed more personal than it looked , isn't it'' she said concerned 

'' so what if its personal , just forget about it '' he said turning the opposite direction

'' aniel if there is something you are going through , you can always open up to me'' she said with heart warming and touched his cheeks with her hand

''let me guess you are using this opportunity to touch my my beautiful face '' he said placing his hand on hers.

she felt embarrassed and quickly with draw her hand.

'' you are so stupid aniel , i guess you are better now '' she said flustered 

'' i never knew you were a dirty player '' he smirked 

'' WHAT , you are more stupid than i thought'' she said getting more flustered 

'' don't you worry about me olive am fine'' he said with a cheeky smile

'' you can bet on that , you just gave me a reason why i should'' olive said still embarrassed 

'' there is something weird with that girl '' he said 

'' what do you mean ''

'' just think about it , you wake up from comma and thing that you do first is to vomit'' 

''yeah, you might to be own to something , how can a hit in the stomach put you in comma for one and half months'' she said

''before leaving the room i saw inside the bin and was able to make out the food she vomited out'' he said 

'' olive i think we need to do futher investigation about the fire work incident ''

Back in the room

Kharis POV

soon night came and luke even slept before me , who could blame him.

i couldn't sleep after what happened to me . my gaze then settled upon the bin and i remembered when i vomited. but something wasn't settling right with me .

'if i was in comma what exactly did vomit out' i thought , i was curious and then i got down from the bed to check the bin.

but what i saw shocked me

'' did i just vomit food i ate one and half month ago!''
