Days and months passed by, I was still in that bed. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner were served right into my room by maids. Medicine was served right after the meals. I was allowed to use the bathroom from time to time. Walking was very hard but with the use of clutches I could manage it. A nurse would visit me daily to keep reports on my current state.
The last time I saw Mr.Haze was the day be smashed that clock..
More days passed by, but still there was no sign of Mr.Haze . It was like he was gone forever...
I almost missed his presence. He would try to be nice to me, but I would say something stupid to make him angry.
It's not like I can make a normal conversation with him. He's too unpredictable. And THAT made him dangerous..
I missed those haunting blue eyes. Eventhough he was emotionally distant from everyone.. I noticed that he would treat me differently.. Like he really cared for me.. Like I was someone special to him..
I was thinking about his long-term absence when the nurse came in. She was a middle-aged woman with a warm pretty smile.
She saw me glancing at her. Then she smiled and said in a sweet voice," Good morning Madam. How are you feeling today ? ".
She was carrying a tray with my medicine on it. White tabltes and a glass of water.
" I'm fine..", I pursed my lips.
The nurse arched her eyebrows. " Madam if something's going on in your mind, do tell me. Im not only your nurse but also your counsellor ", she said sweetly.
I hesitated for a moment. " Where is Mr.Haze ? I mean.. is he okay..? ", I asked her, feeling slightly embarrassed.
The nurse chuckled. I blinked.
" Oh sweet girl ! ", she said still chuckling. " Since the last two weeks you've been muttering Mr.Haze's name in your sleep, honey. Many times ", she glanced down at me like she was looking at a little girl with a fleeting crush, still smiling. " So I already informed Mr.Haze about it. He'll be here today ", she added sweetly.
My mouth dropped open.
I..... WHAT...?!!!
My cheeks flushed in complete embarrassment. I couldn't even look her in the eye. I glanced down at my palms. What other things I might have said.. ?? Oh god.. I wanted to die right there and then.
My embarrassment might have shown on my face. The nurse just looked at me, trying to hide her smile.
Then suddenly her face turned serious.
" Listen to me" ,she said in a serious tone, " What ever you do, keep your distance from Mr.Haze . Be careful, you are just a little girl ". Her expression suddenly turned sober.
" W-why.. ? ", I asked her. I was confused.
She turned to leave. " I cannot speak ill about the master of this house. This is the house where I'm employed ", she said. " I hope you understand Madam ", she took one last look at me and left.

What was THAT about ? Why did she warn me ? My head started to ache again. I need answers NOW..
