The next day I woke up with a terrible headache. I feel like someone is continuously banging inside my head. I saw that Sarah is not there in the room. Does that girl even sleep or not? After freshening up I came down and try to find Sarah. I went to her study and saw her sleeping but her books are all scattered around. That means she didn't come to the room at all. This girl seriously needs a guardian to look after her or else she is gonna die of stress.
I didn't wake her up and instead went to the kitchen to make breakfast. But the headache is becoming worse. This has never happened to me before. Moreover, there is this constant empty feeling inside my heart which I am not able to get rid of. My mind is drifting away to the thoughts of Troy and I hated myself for even thinking of that selfish demon. What does he think of himself? Huh? He is nothing to me. I made some bacon for both of us. Half way through my eating Sarah came and join me.
" Hey. Why didn't you wake me up?" Sarah looked guilty.
"You were sleeping and I seriously doubt whether you have slept all night or not. How could I wake you up. Sarah if you continue like this , I don't know how long your body will co operate and there is a huge chance that you will suffer from problems. After all you are a medical student you should know it better than me. If you fall sick who is gonna look after your patients?" I scolded her.
" uffo! Stop giving lectures. Nothing is gonna happen to me. You worry too much. But I am not the main topic for discussion here and don't try to avoid it. Tell me. What has happened? What has been bothering you so much ?"
"Sarah, I don't know where to begin. And sometimes it is impossible for me to believe that what happened to me for the last few days is nothing but a dream. But it is not a dream at all and here me out first before jumping to conclusions. I know you are a doctor and the first thing that will come to your mind is that I need medical help because every thing will sound very insane."
I don't know why I am giving this much explanation to Sarah. Probably , I had this fear deep inside that she will not believe me and will think I am insane. It was not difficult to explain it to mom because she believes in the existence of god. She is a regular visitor to Church on Sundays. But as for Sarah after her parents death she has stopped believing in those kind of stuffs. She believes that everything is here and there is nothing called afterlife. All your sufferings and happiness is in this life. That is why I am so much against telling her. But I pulled up the courage and started narrating the entire story.
She listened quietly without asking anything . But after finishing my story my headache became so terrible that I was unable to pull up my head to see Sarah's reaction.
"Do you have aspirin ? I need one immediately or else my head is gonna burst." She ran to the nearest drawer and gave me the medicine. I swallowed it in a gulp and she started checking my temperature.
"You are having high fever. Go and take rest." Sarah told me calmly.
There is something different in her way of speaking and I can't exactly place what is it. But I was too sick to ask her anything and I went and lay on the nearest couch. I didn't feel like asking whether she believes my story or not ? Probably like any other normal person she is thinking that I have become mental. With all these thoughts in my head I went to sleep.
Suddenly I heard a banging on the door which made me wake up with a jolt. What is that sound? Where is Sarah?I got up from the couch and started walking drunkenly towards the door. My condition has become so worse that I am not being able to walk properly. Sarah is probably taking shower or something that is why she couldn't hear that someone is knocking in the door. Who will be there at this time ? With slow steps I reached the door and opened it. But to my surprise there was no one outside. Strange. I locked the door and turned back to return back to the couch , what I didn't expect was a certain someone to be sitting there.
" Hello Eva." Troy greeted me coldly and it seems like all the blood from my body is rushing to my head. No. No. This can't be happening. I am probably hallucinating due to fever. Troy can't be here. There is no way he will know about Sarah' s place but who am I kidding he is after all the king of hell and how stupid of me to think that he won't find me. I felt as if I am choking and no sound came out of my mouth. I just wish he won't hurt Sarah. As if to prove me right Sarah walk down the stairs .
" I heard some sound but I was taking a shower that is why I couldn't come soon. Did someone come? And why are you standing like a zombie Eva ? Go and take rest. You still have high fever." She scolded me. Still now she didn't see Troy because her eyes were focused on me but as soon as her eyes fell over Troy she stopped.
" Who is this gentlemen?" Sarah asked me but I was unable to give reply because I was totally frozen in my place.
Troy suddenly came towards me and without any further explanation carried me to the couch. He looked at me with concern in his eyes.
" We are returning back to hell. " I was too tired to say anything to him or protest.
" Whoa. Excuse me Mr. , Eva is not going anywhere. I am not only her friend but I am also a doctor. She should not go anywhere in this condition. " Troy glared at her.
" She don't need any doctor , what she needs is her mate and I am perfectly capable of taking care of her." Now it was Sarah's turn to glare at him. What is wrong with these two, as if I am not there? They didn't ask for my opinion. Finally I found my voice but it came out as a croaking sound.
" I am not going to hell with you Troy."
" That is not for you to decide."as if I am gonna listen to him.
" You heard her. She is not going anywhere with you. I have heard everything from her. You are such a selfish person. You don't deserve Eva. Leave her alone."I have never seen Sarah this angry. She is usually a very calm and composed person .
Troy is trying to compose himself. He looks very angry but I could see that his grip on me has tightened.
" Eva is mine. She belongs to me. I don't care if I deserve her or not but she is only mine." He declared possessively. He uttered the word mine so many times, I realized that his demon side is taking control and I was scared that he might harm Sarah.
" Sarah, please stop it. He is getting angry and he might hurt you and I don't want to see you hurt." Sarah didn't say anything and stormed to her room. I need to speak to her. I know she was fighting for me but I don't want to see her hurt. As soon as she left, Troy's grip on me loosened.
"Are you okay?" This guy has some serious problem, if he was a human I would have sent him for some anger management class. I started to think whether they have that kind of classes in hell because it seems all demons have this kind of problem.
Suddenly Alexander appeared out of nowhere. He looked at me with disappointment. I really felt bad for ditching him like that. He trusted me and I broke his trust and that is why I was unable to meet with his eyes.
"I am taking Eva back to hell. She is not well." Alexander nodded.
" Let me say bye to Sarah. " I pleaded to him.
" Fine." He groaned. I was about to go upstairs but I saw Sarah coming down. It seems she was about to go somewhere.
" Eva there is an emergency in the hospital and my sir asked me to assist him. You go safely." It seems she has heard our conversation. She came and hugged me.
She turned towards Troy and told
"Sorry . For screaming at you. I have never seen Eva in this condition which made me angry." Troy just nodded. Suddenly, my eyes fell on Alexander and I saw that he was staring at Sarah with so much intensity that it might melt ice. As soon as Sarah saw Alexander , she stared at him for a second. When she saw him staring at her like that she just blushed and looked down.
Whoa!what was that? I smell something fishy. She muttered a bye and left." You guys go I have some business here." Alexander stated and teleported off somewhere which left me and Troy alone. He didn't say anything . He picked me up and within seconds we are back to the same house.
