Chapter 9
Day 4

I wanted to open my eyes but i couldn't. All i saw was black. I whimpered and tried to feel my hands but i felt paralyzed. I once again tried to open my eyes only to fail yet again. Determined, i forced my eyes open and as they say, third times the charm. Finally, being able to see, i noticed i was in a room. It was painted a dull ugly white. Beside me something beeped. It was annoying the hell out of me. Why the heck couldn't it shut up? It definitely couldn't be my alarm. I turned my head and noticed a defibrillator monitor. What the heck? Why did i need that? And then i slowly realized i was in a hospital room. No wonder it smelled so gross. I hated the smell of the medication that seemed to constantly stick around.
I moved my hand and noticed IV's stuck into my veins. I cringed at the sight and threw my hand down again unable to see the little needles. I hated needles.
I sighed and before i knew it, silent tears were rolling down my cheeks.

"Geet, you okay?" I heard someone ask as the door opened. I looked towards the door and saw Annie standing there looking concerned. I nodded wiping my tears.

"What happened to me?" I asked her, my voice raspy.

"Car accident." Annie said simply sitting down beside me. I shook slightly as i remembered the car coming at me. The fear as the car crept closer and the pain when it had finally hit me.

"Bhai saw you and he tried to tell you but you seemed in some kind of daze." She told me and i gasped as i remembered someone yelling for me. It was Maan.

"Where is he?" I asked almost automatically causing Annie to smile slightly.

"He's outside. Hasn't gone home ever since your accident."

I gasped again. "Can you call him please?" I requested. Annie nodded as she stood up and left.

Almost a minute later, Maan stepped in and i noticed his red eyes right away. He had been crying? I felt my heart shatter. Without thinking, i touched his hand gently once he sat down.

"How are you?" He asked me. I sighed shaking my head.

"I'm Okay Maan. Are YOU okay?" He laughed.

"I was so worried Geet." He said his voice cracking and before i knew it, he broke down, his head on the bed. I bit my lip and rose a hand to his hair.

"Maan.."I called out gently. He clutched my hand and continued to cry. My heart continued to ache and pain more by the minute. I wanted him to stop crying.

"Maan please.." I whispered touching his cheek. He took a deep breath and stared at me for a long time. I framed his face in my hands. "I'm okay." I told him again. Then without thinking, i hugged him. I felt him press his face into my neck and i could feel his hot tears. I grabbed a bunch of his hair in my hands and just breathed. It hurt to see him cry.

"I thought" he mumbled into my neck "i'd lose you too."
I closed my eyes in pain. I didn't want to see him like this. I pulled away and stared into his brown eyes.

"I'm here Maan. I'm ok. Nothings wrong. Stop crying." I demanded wiping his tears causing him to smile. I smiled back feeling relieved. His smile made my life.
As we stared into each other's eyes, the door opened and i heard someone cough. I looked up and saw a grinning Angad. I blushed and moved away from Maan.

"Handa. I'm not even gonna ask how you are cuz you look great. Beyond great actually." He said rolling his tongue in his cheek. I glared at him and rolled my eyes.

"Yes i'm great." I told him and he laughed standing beside Maan. "Should i leave you two alone?" He teased staring at first Maan then me. I blushed. Maan playfully pushed Angad away chuckling. Before we knew it, the door swung open again and in stepped Kripa looking very angry. She walked right over to Angad who gulped. I laughed quietly.

"Did Annie not tell you to leave these 2 alone for a while?" She snapped at Angad who sighed. "Yeah but i just thought-" He was cut off.
"Don't think Khanna! You fail at thinking!" Kripa told him haughtily causing his mouth to drop open. I laughed out loud this time making him turn and shoot me a glare. Kripa then grabbed his arm. "Let's go you loser." She said to him. He blew me a kiss teasingly and threw a look to Maan who showed him his fist. I rolled my eyes. Men.

"So" Maan said as we walked onto the front porch of my house. "Are you done being the Sacrificing Queen? Please tell you've come to your senses."

I glared at him and fumbled for my keys trying to hold my crutches at the same time. I didn't watch crutches. Maan shook his head holding them for me. Once i had the door open, i stepped in with his help and sat down on the couch. He walked into the kitchen and made himself some coffee.

"I get none?" I asked him. He glared at me. "First tell me, have you come to your senses?" He snapped. I sighed.

"Maan. I like you. But i need time."

He nodded taking a sip. "Fine. That's absolutely fine. But at least you admit you like me." He said getting up and sitting beside me. I blushed. "See? You're blushing again. I love it!" He teased. I slapped his arm in annoyance. He laughed and put an arm around me. I put my head in the crook of his arm and sighed pleasantly. If i could, i would stay like this forever. Unfortunately, i felt my eyes cloud again.

Maan walked around confused in some odd area. It seemed like an alley. "Geet?!" He yelled. "GEET! Where are you?" He asked. And then he took out his phone and dialed a number but no one picked up.
"Why on earth did she call me here?" He mumbled to himself. As he walked around, he almost collided into a police car parked at the corner. The police officer seemed to be sleeping in there. He shook his head disgusted.

"You falling asleep?" Maan asked me causing me to return to reality. I looked up at him very confused. I was going to call him somewhere? Why? "Geet?" he called out.

"Huh? Oh. Um. Yeah. I'm tired." I said grabbing my crutches and walking to my room.

"Now now. Careful hon. Any mistake, and your cousin and aunt will have to suffer. How about you do something for me first?"
