Life came back into me when I slightly moved my eyelid apart the light made me to shut them back. I moved a bit the pain is still there, but it seems to be lesser. The floor beneath me look softer like a comfortable bed. They covered me with a soft blanket. Where am i? I asked myself.

    I tried to open my eyes forcing the light in it. The ray made me teary I was in a hospital with an IV connected to it. I don't want to create any problems now for Mr. Vincent. I don't want to be a burden to him. I have to leave from here before he arrives. I try to remove it the door open.

  " What the hell are you doing?" a familiar voice interrupted me. I looked up and saw him coming near me with a tray of food.  He kept that on the table and approached me. I replied nothing and looked down.

"I asked you something?" he asked in authoritatively. I didn't tell him anything.

  "Were you trying to remove this from your hand?" he asked while showing me IV.  "look here when I am talking" he commanded. I slowly looked up. "Were you?" i shooked my head. And looked down at my hand

   "Don't lie Anna, I saw you what were you doing," he continued

   "you know I was so scared when you were not around me. I made myself clear that I need to find you by any how. And look now you want to run away from me."

  "No! It's not that, i just dont want to be a burden to you. I dont want to give you more problems." I said still not making any eye contact. Then hear him laughing. I looked at him in confused.

  "You really think you are a burden to me. Are you dumb or are you pretending to be dumb? Can't you see that I care about you." I flinched when he said coldly.

    "you are just saying because you pity me nothing else."

  " ha pity, do you think I pity on you? Do you think the concern and the care I give you be a pity? Do you think the way I see you is because of pity?"
I wasn't able to control my tears.

   " Ms. Anna peige you are wrong i dont pity you. I love you. When i first saw you it mesmerized me. I loved you because you differed from other girls. I love you because you are innocent, beautiful and  strong person. Which I never saw in a person." he continued while holding the hand.

   " I love you Anna please don't leave me " with that he was having tears in his eyes. Again I didn't reply him and looked at our tangled hands. I was sodding. Even I like him but he deserves someone better than me.
 
  Soon he pulled me in the hug. I was crying now loudly. I don't know whether I was crying because of pain or his words. And he on other hand trying to calm me down. After a few minutes we pulled back.

   "I don't need your answer now, you can take time. Now come you need to eat your food and then the medicine.," he saw my face when he said medicine and he chuckled.

  "Come on, Anna I brought you porridge," I made a face "I don't like it,"

  "You have to eat this please for me,"

"okay fine but can I have a glass of water," he smiled and helped me to drink it.

Then he made me sit straight and sat beside me "now open your mouth" he brought spoon full of porridge near my mouth.

  "I can eat b..." he stove the spoon in my mouth. I glared at him.

He didn't let me eat by myself and he only stove the food in my mouth. After finishing it, he kept the bowl on the side, wiped my mouth and again help me drive water.

  "take these tablets, it's for the pain relief." I sighed and took it with no argument.

  We both were in a comfortable silence. None of us speak. After about 15 minutes my eyelid were feeling heavy. I looked at him. “why am I feeling sleepy and tired again” asked him.
