AZEZAL POV

When I caught her before falling her arms were burning like she is seriously very sick. I starred at her she looked totally numb. Like she just faced something very big and dangerous.

I noticed she postures weren't normal. She seemed very weak and I'll like she can probably faint any moment

"What happened, Leera?" I asked looking at her as I saw tears in her eyes. She didn't reply. Silently sobbed closing her eyes facing down. I didn't say as the plane started to take off.

After a few minutes when we were on the air, I asked her again what happened to her but she still kept that silence and kept on with her crying

I couldn't refuse myself anymore. Ignorance never settles well with me. I got up my seat removing my seat belt and stood just right infront of her. I tilted her head up and she looked at me with stunned tearful eyes

"Who's clothes are these and what happened to you?" I asked a little louder than before looking straight into her eyes which were filled with both fear and tear now

"Fucking saw something!" I shouted this time. Anger was getting inside me

"I.. I..." she wanted to say something but couldn't her eyes became more dizzy as she was just about to faint. Her eyes got small, she couldn't hold her posture perhaps but tried her best to stay still

"Fuck! Your burning.." I uttered when I got into my senses due to the touch of my fingers on her chin. I got on my knees kneeling beside her touched her face which was too fucking warm

"Leera, what happened? You are too fucking sick!? Did you take medicine?" I asked this time in a low concerning voice. Why am I concerning about her? I don't know but I need her to get well... I just can't see her like this

"No... I..." before she says something the flight attendant came and I told her to get medicines

The flight attendant got the medicines and I made Leera eat those

"Get some sleep, you will get well" saying that I got back to my seat. I watched her falling asleep. She looked totally pale. What possibly happened to her? She was just alright the day before

After a few moments I took my laptop and engaged myself in work... few hours passed like this. It's midnight now

"S...save" I stopped when I heard her murmuring something in her sleep. She seemed getting tensed in her sleep and that dissatisfied facial expressions of her are making me anxious now. Fuck? What's happening.. Is she having a nightmare? Even if she is that isn't my matter to concern about.

Then I noticed some tears in her eyes as she murmured again "s..save mee" in her sleep. Save her from what? Ahh... losing my control I woke her up

"Girl, wake up" I shooked her shoulder a bit and she shocking opened her eyes. She looked frightened, her eyes held fear. She looked at me for some moments and then her eyes looked everywhere around examining the place where she is right now. Then she finally relaxed a bit

"You are safe. No one is harming you here" I said coldly to her and took my seat again

"I need to go to the washroom" she uttered

"So, do you expect me to carry you and take you there?" I asked her. She still looked pale and the sadness evident in her face

"No, I'll go myself. Can you atleast tell me the direction?" She uttered in a low soft and sick voice. She is sick though. I called the flight attendant and she can quickly

"Take her to the washroom and help her" I uttered shifting my gaze to my laptop again. The flight attendant said "ok" and showed her the way. I saw how weak was she, how she was still flinching in her way. I tried not to care or think about that as I forced my head out of it

She came back and sat on her seat again. Glancing through the window. It was 3.00 AM by now. The whole city was dimmed and lifeless by now from here most probably. I don't know why I couldn't focus on my work. Even if my eyes were trying to keep their gaze only towards my laptop, my head is filled with her thoughts. I want to watch her, only her

"If you want to eat something-" she didn't let me finish as she said "No. I don't want anything". I closed my eyes for a while. I literally hate it so fucking much when someone cuts me off while I'm speaking. I calmed myself, she isn't well I'll let her go this time.

After a while she fell asleep again

LEERA POV

I opened my eyes and I saw him talking with someone over the phone. It was already very early in the morning. Probably I woke up after 3-4 hours. I heard the flight attendant warning to sit properly beacuse the plane is going to land within a few minutes

The plane finally landed and we got out. Now we are currently inside the airport. He didn't say anything since the plane landed. After getting my stuffs, I just followed him.

"Aze-" I was just about to thank him for troubling to bring me here sincerely and safely but stopped when suddenly I heard his name coming from someone behind me

"Azezal!!" She shouted in a exhilarating voice crossing me and crashed into a hug with him

"Azezal, darling! I missed you soo soo much" she uttered while hugging him. Then She kissed his cheek while I just kept watching them astonished

"What are you doing here, Carla?" He asked in his usual cold tone

"Ooh come on baby! I fucking missed you... How come you didn't inform me that you were going out of the country and when your coming back. I just need to learn everything about you from your secretary. That's kinda disappointing" she said making a frowning face

"I don't think there is any necessity to tell you everything and my life is none of your business" he said harshly to her

I kept watching them. Who could she be? His girlfriend or something? Is he mad at her or something like that. I kept myself silent and stilled on my place.

"Ohh baby! We are going to get married soon and here you are tryna ignore me" she said smirking and her hands made way to his face. But before she could touch his face he held her hand and got himself out of the hug.

So... she is his fiancee. He is getting married? Although they looked like a couple that had a fight. I shifted my gaze down, I felt a lump of pain in my heart. I don't know why but I felt hurt watching them.

That girl's eyes trailed towards me and she gave me a weird creepy look. "Baby, who is she? Your new worker?" She asked him but he didn't reply instead his eyes met my eyes as I looked towards him for his answer.

His eyes were kinda soft but coldness were also evident in them. He didn't say anything for a while after a few seconds I broke the silence as I just can't stand here anymore. Facing all these again.

"Thankyou Sir, extremely sorry to trouble you. I'm leaving" saying that I turned back with my bag and started to walk towards the exit of the airport as unknown tears began to wet my cheeks. But still there was the mystifying question in my head..... Why?
