Sid takes Alia's hand and helps her to sit on the wheelchair. He takes her to the hospital's reception. Before he could say anything to the receptionist, one of the doctors comes rushing to her.

"Hey Alia are you okay?? Shall I get you a room??" asked a doctor in his late twenties

"No no... doc, I got my foot hurt"

"Oh... okay, take her to the first chamber on left, there we will take her X- rays and then proceed further" he commands Sid.

Sid nods.

"You even know the doctors? Huhh?? Alia just keeps quiet. Sid finds it strange because in past 30 minutes he had known her she hardly kept her lips sticked together but thinks maybe it's the hospital effect and gets her X – ray done.

In a cream and green pastel walled chamber Alia is continuously rotating on the rotable chair near to the doctor's desk. "Zooooommmmm....." she makes sound with every round.

Sid looks at her and wonders whether she has got her brain damaged instead of her foot.

"Ms. Alia, you have got a mild fracture in your left ankle. We will get it plastered and you will be fine."

"But doctor how much time will it take?" Sid questions.

"At the max 7-10 days and then you can run, dance and jump around but until then no straining you leg and no scooty bike riding. Now you are all set to go." Doctor says plastering her ankle.

She gives a very fierce look to Sid.

"Now Mr. Killer, because of you I can't do anything for next 10 days. I can't roam, I can't ride only because your two pairs of eyes couldn't see anything" she says pointing towards his eyes and geeky specks.

"I am sorry... I didn't mean to ..." Alia looks away and says to her

" now 10 days of my life would get wasted"  she makes a puppy face to herself, seeing this the guilt in Sid's mind and soul reaches another height and he walks up to her and sits at her plastered foot's end.

"Alia, I am extremely very sorry, just tell me how I can make you feel any better. I will do anything, anything that you say."

"Anything??" Alia thinks for a second and her lips forms a wicked smirk.

"You promise you will do anything?"

"Ya... ya... I mean yes... pro... promise"

"Okay so from now on for the next 10 days you are going to be my scooty driver. I can't ride but I can be ridden around."

Sid starts shaking his head in disagreement 10 days seemed hell with her.

"Hey you promised. First you broke my leg and now you are breaking your promise."  She makes a puppy face knowing that this trick never fails.

"Oh... aammm... okay  ... I will" Sid gives up seeing her face.

"Thank you Mr. ...?

"Siddharth"

"Thank you Mr. Siddharth a.k.a. Mr. Driver. Now come let's go"

Sid stands there realizing that he just got tricked in.

"Come Mr.Driver help me to hop back to my scooty. You can keep giving these tough looks while walking also."
