Jack POV:

It's almost 6 hours, and I'm still looking at the red light. In these 6 hours, the fear of what if, something happened to her. What if... This what-if is killing me.

All this happened because of me. Why did I send her alone? Why didn't I take her to the office? Why I gave them a chance to hurt her and why I didn't reach her on time.

I still can't forget that scene where she was lying on the floor in her blood. Today, I am unable to fulfil my promise. Promise I made to her that every pain has to cross me to go to her. Everything has to face me first. But today I'm unable to protect her.

She is always there for me. She completes her promises. That day, she arrived on time before that girl could stab me. Then the whole week she took care of me. She made me a human from a lifeless body.

Where I used to kill every person. She did everything for me, even after how I behaved with her. The way I always did whatever I wanted. I caused her both mental and physical harm.

Thinking about all this, a tear fell from my eyes.

I don't deserve her. I don't deserve her, but...but she is only mine. I am never going to leave her.

She always complete her promises, and I know she will be alright.

I was in thought when the door of the operating theatre opened and the doctor came out.

"What happened, doctor? How is she? Tell me, if something happens to her, I will destroy this hospital. Tell me now!" I shouted in anger.

"Mr. Williams, please come down; you need to be strong to handle her, please." He said, But right now I'm anything but calm.

"WITH YOU TELL ME HOW IS SHE OR I SET THIS HOSPITAL ON FIRE?" I shouted at him, which made him step back.

"Sir... Please understand, this is serious," he said with seriousness.

Hearing this word, the fear took over me again.

"Operation is completed successfully, but we can't tell anything now. We have to keep her under observation after that. What is her condition?" He informed me.

"How much time??" I ask him.

"For 48 hours after that, we can tell her health." He said.

48 hours.

Just 48 hours.

But for me, it feels like a lifetime. Every passing second is slicing my soul like a razor. I nodded slowly, but inside, I was falling apart.

The doctor walked away, leaving me there, standing like a statue-broken, helpless, and consumed with guilt.

I looked through the small glass window of the ICU door. She was there, lying pale and still. Wires connected to her body, beeping machines monitoring every beat of her heart. The same heart that once beat for me with so much love... now fighting for itself.

I walked toward the door, pressing my forehead against the glass.

"Why didn't you fight for yourself this time, huh?" I whispered. "Why do you always fight for me, but not for yourself?"

Tears blurred my vision again, but I didn't wipe them. I let them fall. I deserved every drop of pain.

My phone rang, but I ignored it. I didn't care who it was. Nothing else matters right now. Just her.
