Media, live reporters and police officers were gathered outside the casualty department. Security guards were having a hard time keeping them outside the hospital.
I told uncle to urgently take the car in reverse, we will get inside from the second one. He won't hesitate to run over them, if they dare get in my way.
"What is going on?" I had to tell him it's nothing serious. It might be because of a rich man is admitted in casualty, and shrugged it off.
"Alley, in case you suspect something, Immediately, give a call to me, I'll pick you up. Okay!" I nodded, reassuring him again that nothing was wrong.
He had punched a boy in front of the faculty who bullied me, in high school. I knew he won't let anyone fuck around with me.
Jimin came running to me, "What have you done? They are here to have your statement!!" He was again worried for me, because of the unwanted crowd gathered outside the casualty.
"My statement? For what?"
"How many times have I told you, don't be involved in anyone else's misery? Let them deal with it themselves. But No! And here we are."
"First, calm down! What happened? Will you atleast tell me?" I was walking fast side by side with him, he face was drained of blood. Making him look pale.
"Evan happened! What else." He slammed the door shut behind his back of his cabin. He heaved a sigh in Frustration, and grabbed my shoulder making me sit on one of the chair.
"That child is root of the problem." He didn't broke the eye contact, and i squinted my eyes at him.
"Jimin, can you hear yourself?" There is no word to define the disbelief i had hearing him. How could he be the problem? He is barely recovering from the jaws of death.
"I might sound un-empathetic and even rude, but you need to hear me out. Evan is a kid of a rich family, he is backed up by filthy rich and powerful people.
What happened to him was wrong, so wrong. What he went through was worse than hell! Nothing in the world can make up for the cruelty he went through. I agree, but that's none of a doctor's business.
You can put bandages on his wounds, do your best to heal him, listen to him what he had to say. But if they start dragging you in between the matter, now that's where the problem is!"
"If my mere statement can get that bastard behind the bars, then how came it's a problem?" He might bang my head against the wall, that's how pissed he looks right now. But calmed himself down.
"Two businessmens that too cousins, are ready to drag each other down at their feet, no matter what it costs.
He didn't gave a fuck forcing himself on a seventeen year old child, just because he wanted to see his parents hurt.
Who knows? he might get to you if you coined his name, in front of the media——and there is potentially a chance no one might be able to drag him behind the bars, he can easily bribe them."
I wasn't afraid to give any statement out, in media against a man, a well known businessmen, not until now. I shifted in my chair, uncomfortably.
Jimin has a point, what if he might harms me as well? And what are the odds that Evan might get justice or not in the court.
I had promised Evan, that the man soon will be behind the bars. But how? I hadn't thought that getting my hands on him would come at me like this.
"Evan deserves the justice, but back off if it costs of your life. Do you get it?" His eyebrows were furrowed, how will I deny to give any statement to media, in front of his parents. They trusted me.
