72-Congratulations

Sarah’s pov (1 Week Later)

It had been exactly one week since the blast. A gas cylinder blasted in Ice cream Heaven. Ashley Walters was still in a coma, but doctors were very positive about her recovery.

Her friends‘ eyes had swelled up due to excessive crying. Aniya, who used to be her orphanage friend, and Evelyne who was her employer at Ice cream Heaven. She luckily survived the attack because according to her statement to the police, she went out to buy mayonnaise as that night they kind of fell

short on it.

Ashley Walters! A girl who changed my life forever was now lying there with a lifeless body on that hospital bed.

Three days back she was on a ventilator but later, she started responding to the medicines. I still remember Shella was the one who woke me up when she saw the news of the blast on TV.

Without bothering to change my clothes or look for Justin, I straight away went to the hospital. Justin had already advised the medical staff to take care of her. He was ready to move her to some other country if needed for advanced medical facilities.

I hardly went back home for relaxing or taking my sleep. Every time I used to shut my eyelids, Ashley Walters young face used to pop up before my eyes.

She could be my rival and I could be her enemy. But I was a human too. I was not evil. I was not selfish enough to leave the girl dying just like that.

“Coffee!” A coffee cup before my eyes brought me back to the hospital corridor with a strong smell of

disinfectant.

“Thanks, Marwick!” Along with me, my brother had been there like a rock. When I did not want to go home, he used to force me and promise me that he will stay there for Ashley’s sake.

Like me, he was also very disturbed.

“She is such a sweet girl, Sarah. Don’t worry. She will be alright. All healthy. Laughing like before.” I did not respond to him and took a sip of my hot black coffee.

“May I ask you something?” he was still observing me.

“Don’t, Marw! Just don’t.” The tears started slipping down my cheeks, “I know you are just wondering why I am so worried for that freakin girl. The answer is… I Don’t Know! I don’t know Marw!”

Circling his arm around me, he tugged my head under his chin, “Shh. She will be fine. Doctors are quite hopeful.”

I did not know for how long we stayed like that.

“You should go home. I can ask Keith to drop you,” I quickly lifted my head from his chest and wiped my face.

“I am good. I don’t want to go home now.”

“You will make yourself tired like this.” He tried to argue but I did not budge. I was not going anywhere. Whenever my brother used to send me home for a shower and sleep.

All I used to do was stay awake and panic. What if something happened to that girl? Was it happening due to my hatred towards her? Was it my negative energy towards her?

I was busy thinking when I felt chaos in the corridor.

A few doctors and nurses were running inside Ashley’s room.

I held my brother’s arm, “Marwick!”

Aniya and Evelyne were also looking at the doctors rushing to her room.

“What exactly is going on here?” Marwick asked in a no–nonsense tone, “Can someone please explain us?”

A nurse who was rushing inside stopped for an instant, “the girl had got consciousness.”

With that, she went inside. With a sinking heart, I tightly gripped my brother’s wrist. He immediately

covered my hand with his other one.

“Is

is she awake?” her friend Evelyne asked me with a ray of hope in her eyes.

Both Marwick and I nodded at her.

“Mr. Deluca!” the head doctor who came out of the room called.

“He is not here.” I quickly went to him, “We… we are her family. How is she?”

“Good news is her scans are satisfactory. She responded to our queries. Her vision is perfect. Her headaches are natural but would get better with time. She was lucky that she landed on a pile of soft

sand otherwise her prior concussion could have gotten a lot worse.”

“Can we meet her?” For some reason, I was crying along with Aniya and Evelyne.
