If I loved you

Go through darkness to get the light

'I...I...will take you to the hospital...let's go...' I tightly grabbed his waist and placed most of his bodyweight on me.

'There are men guarding the car. And I came in a cab which is already gone.'

'Then....'

'These people are not reliable. I was just buying time but it doesn't mean that they will let us go from here unscathed. Let's hide for now....'

'But your health.....'

'You are with me.....my happy pill....I'll be alright...' He smiled.

But my eyes were stinging like hell.

'New.....'

'Don't worry. Because of my injury my body is already filled to the brim with different types of medicine. I don't think something extraordinary is going to happen.....'

'What if you start hallucinating? What if your body collapses?'

'I'll be fine. Let's not think about something that hasn't happened yet.'

I was looking at his sweat covered face and preparing myself to face the challenge. You are right. I won't let anything happen to you.

'The police...?' I tried to focus on our present circumstances.

'What police? There's no dash cam footage.....I made that up. At that time I was bedridden for almost six months....I knew nothing about the car and its condition..' He just shrugged.

'Oh god!' I exclaimed in disbelief.

'Now hurry up....they are busy quarreling.' But New didn't pay attention to my expression.

'Where should we go?' I tried to keep up with his thought process.

'To the mountain. Because that's the only place they usually avoid.'

'But your leg?'

'I'll manage. Remember that small stream? It's right over there, head straight for it. We'll find our way from there. Once we reached the cliffside we could make a call to Luke.' New said in a low voice.

'Luke knows you're here?' We started to walk in the said direction.

'No one knows. When I received that fake audio clip I knew Non was planning something vicious. But I didn't know who to trust so I kept it to myself.'

'Mr Srinakarin....'

'I know. The moment I saw unknown faces among my guards when we were chasing that spy I knew he defected.... because of this I suffered a huge blow after arriving at Krabi. They were everywhere and kept an eye on us all the time.'

'I heard about the car accident...'

'Mn. I couldn't contact you because those guys tampered with our phones. They installed some type of jammer to interfere with our calls...... Only when Non called or sent messages I received them. It was really annoying.'

'Wanna rest for some time?'

'No need. We have to hide as far as possible.'

'Okay.' I was having trouble walking because of my injured knees but whenever I thought about New's condition I felt ashamed of my weak body.

'Are you alright?' But New noticed my abnormality.

'I am fine.' I tried to sound casual.

'What happened to your legs? Let me see.' But he wasn't easy to fool.

'Didn't you just say that we need to hurry?'

'Just stay still for a second and let me have a look at your injuries.......did they beat you?' He stopped walking and started to push me to sit down.
