This Chapter is Dedicated to Disabled people around the world. Don't give up, the worst type of Disablement, is one of the mind.
" Aaah! " I screamed in pain, as I woke up. The hospital room was vacant,just me in there. I was given the best room, Perks of being the owner's daughter.

I held the head rest, and tried to balance on the floor, but I ended up falling to the ground.

I hated pity, but I had no choice.

" HELP! HELP! Please ! " Soon, Nurses and a female doctor, rushed in, helping me back to the bed.

" Zaina Gambo, During your accident..
You severely damaged your spinal cord, and you know the implication. "

" They press your head well! Spinal
wetin? Are you insane ? You couldn't say I broke my butt, I mean what am I using it for ? You had to say Spinal Cord. Listen, I don't take jokes, well I do, but not this serious, I'll get you fired when my dad gets back. Get me another doctor. Now! Asap! "

" Actually.."

" I said OUT!! " Can you believe those fools? Saying I damaged my spinal cord.

I held the Iron bars, and forced my upper body up, and then I tried to move my legs, but it was as if my nerves there were gone.

I tried to move it, but nothing worked.
" God, Help me! "

A knock came through the door, and I screamed .
" Come in ! " It was Humayra, and that stupid brother of Hers.
" Zai..."

" Don't call my name! In fact, Carry that sack of sadness you call a brother, and leave! "

" You know, Humayra asked me to come, but I said no, yet she forced me.
Humayra let's go. "

" I am sorry Zaina. " Humayra apologized, but I wasn't hearing any of it.
" Just leave! "

" Fine! I'll leave, just answer my question ❓, where is Mukhtar? "

" He's... He went out to bring my clothes, and food stuffs. "

" Really? When? "

" an hour ago. "

" An hour ago, I called your house, and the guard answered, saying that you didn't come home, so I decided to come visit. I checked around your house, but didn't find You, nor Mukhtar. I decided to check the hospital you work, and here you are. "
" You just missed him ! "

" I checked his house, and he said he doesn't care. "

" He was angry with me, and who gives you the right to meddle in my affairs? Just go! "

" Ayman, let's go. "

" Finally. " He sighed loud enough for me to hear, and I felt so bad.

" Stop acting foolish. " she said, and left.

Immediately they left, I got so depressed. I was alone in this hospital, my parents are so annoying. I would have called Timah, but she wasn't even in the state. what do I do ?

I grabbed the hospital telephone, and called Mukhtar.

" Hello ? "

" Mukhtar ! " I burst into tears.

" Babe, what happened ? "

" I ... I am ... In the Hospital. "

" Hear yourself. " In just remembered, I was almost always in the hospital, if I wasn't in school.

" As a patient. "

" What ? What happened? Where ? When ? "

" You have to come... Over. "

" Which hospital ? "

" My Dad's. " I said, and he ended the call, and in thirty minutes, he rushed into my room, and was shocked seeing my legs, I was bedridden.

" Zainab, what happened ? "

I would have rolled my eyes, if I wasn't in pain. What's so hard in Zaina?

" I was in an accident, last night, and I can't walk. " I said the last part lowly, I saw a tiny little bit of disgust in his eyes, but ... I must be wrong, he cried for me, and added.

" This was all my fault, I shouldn't have left you all alone, please forgive me. " He begged, but I told him not to.

" No, it wasn't. " I couldn't even talk much, my throat hurts so bad.
He took a seat beside me, and waited for a while, before asking.

" Aren't you Hungry ? "

" No, thank you. "

" Oh, Okay. "

It felt weird, I mean Ayman would have asked more time. Why am I thinking about him, now.

He got up saying.

" I need to go, I'm late for work, bye. "

He didn't even wait, before he left.
I don't blame him, I was crippled.

After a while,  a new doctor walked in, and discharged me, after prescribing some drugs.

" Doctor, You know my dad is not around. Can I just stay in the Hospital. "

" Yes Ma'am, but the Hospital isn't a good place to heal, alongside medicinal Care, you need Social and emotional care, to heal your wounds. That is why, I sent Nurse Rahina to go with you.

" Nurse What ? "

" Is there any problem ? "
" Oh, No problem. "

Yes there was, Nurse Rahina had tried to seduce my dad so many times, especially when mom wasn't around. He couldn't just fire her, her dad helped my dad survive from a car accident, so he feels indebted. I hated her so much, and made it clear to her, now I was to stay with her till my parents come back.

Later, the driver came, and with the help of Rahina and other Nurses, I got in the car, and was to be taken home, with Rahina in with me.

She kept glaring at me, and I felt so uncomfortable. Finally, we reached home, and she brought out the wheel chair from the car, and I slowly got outside the car, and sat in it, as I was taken inside the house. I felt so Vulnerable.

I was in my room, watching Anupamaa on my laptop, when a knock came through, and I wheeled myself to the door, and opened it.

It was Rahina.

" What are you doing in my room ? " I asked, and she ignored me. Before I could lock the door, she stirred the wheel chair to the stairs, and I screamed the Help's name.

" Maimu ! "

" I sent her on an errand. So, you are alone. "

I screamed the driver's name.

" Yakubu ! "

Who do you think drove Maimu ?

" Isah ! " I screamed.

" You fool. I sent him on an errand as well. You see, we are the only ones here, and I could just push you down the stairs, and everyone would take it as an accident. You are the only reason stopping me from getting married to your father. That your Old mother, only conceived a girl, and if you are dead, he'll be forced to get a quick wife to inherit all his wealth, and I am always available. "

" My dad doesn't wed pigs. "

" Are you ...? " she didn't complete her statement, before strangling me in anger, and I tried to fight back, but I was vulnerable.

" You are dead today ! " She cackled, and pushed me down the stairs, with every time my head hit a step, I was injured, I was almost unconscious, when I saw Ayman in front of me, as he caught me, before I hit the floor.

" Zaina ! " He called, and yelled again.
" ISAH ! Catch her. "

Isah ran through the door, and caught Rahina. Ayman boarded me into his car, and drove me to the hospital.
