Falling Apart

Saki's POV

"This is all your mistake, you made her like this...she said..she...she doesn't wanted to go"...oh! that's my mom's voice..she is sobbing!

"Aunty, please...this is not Uncle's mistake. This is that bloody driver mistake" Arun's voice raging with both Anger and sad

"Saki...Sa..ki.." my dad break down to cry..

"Dad, plsss! Calm down..if you continue like this it will affect your health...so please" that's my brother uttering each word with pained voice...

Why am I only hearing things??? I tried hard to wake up but couldn't. Why is everyone crying??? And I feel like hearing them very far away...their voices buzzing vaguely....as if from pit.

Where am I ??? Why am here??? I wanted to ask but I feel like trapped inside me.

AM I DEAD?

Oh yes! I have read it somewhere when you die, your brain works for sometime. Is this why am able to hear them. Slowly..their voices fading out...

"Priya, Priya can you hear me?" Arun is calling me out..I badly wanted to tell him that I can hear...but could not move a bit...his touch, the warmth I could feel and.. and I wanted to hold him...

"Is she up? did she move?", my mom asked earnestly..

"Yes Aunty, her eyes moved" Arun sounded energetically.

Thank god, am not dead!..suddenly the memories started to flow and my brain rebooted to the last memory I had...visuals started showing up discreetly..

"Arrgh!!!, I heard Mr. Jerk voice clearly coming out with frustration and anger which made me open my eyes and he was checking his phone...we were driving on a flyover which is elevated about 30 feet height...that's when it happened, a bus suddenly flying up in the air and approaching us and I let out a shout as i could not do anything, I thought am done and prayed GOD to end my life without troubling others.

Everything happened in almost slow motion that I felt its happening in a dream, I heard the sounds of groaning metal and breaking glasses....I could see the guy who is sitting diagonal to me is moving to the front and coming back slowly.

Suddenly, I..I felt a firm arm extending to hold the seat belt pillar next to me sending me back to the seat to shield from moving front...oh its his arm, the Jerk, he was pressing me hard, its paining me, what does he want now....Moron he is...I could not move a bit and closed my eyes tightly to avoid the glass pieces from the window windshield. The car was spinning like a roller coaster and I held his shoulder tightly unable to do anything.

After the hell lot of jarring noise, the car stopped hitting the guardrail which lifted up the back of the car and I was gliding up and landed on his lap, my back facing his face.. I felt his heavy breathing on my nape. His left hand was holding the "Oh shit handle" on the top tightly and right hand holding my hip hugging me tight...

I saw bruises on his hands and blood dripping, not sure from where...my body shivering and still on his lap, that was awkward. My body was aching with pain that I could not move a bit.

He held me further tight and closed the remaining distance as his lips touching my back of my ear, he murmured "smile Dimple, its over" and placed a soft kiss on my ear lobe. I jerked at the sudden gesture, his hot breathe tickled me and i felt chills rippled down my spine.

          The incredible sense of comfort lifted everything that was weighing on me and slowly my memories fading away...

"Dimple, are you planning to stay like this for your rest of your life? you have pleased me long enough!!!now care to get down??, his sulky voice lingered in my ears, suddenly my memories started rushing back...

The front windshield was completely broken and air bag was out. Both the driver and the other guy was unconscious. I looked around, the car was completely shattered and everywhere glass pieces and everything was a mess. I was glad at the thought that he was wearing seat belt else, god knows what would have happened. "Dimple,  are you planning to stay like this for your rest of your life? you have pleased me long enough!!!now care to get down?? he said it in a flat tone.

Pleased me long enough??? as if. I was annoyed. Whats with this guy, is he a split personality. I wanted to shout out loud - Get Lost!

As my seat is filled with glass pieces, I was trying to get down hurriedly from his lap to open the door and I was horrified that the door was stuck. He tried to open the door from outside via the broken window but failed..its stuck...

Suddenly there was a huge noise and my eyes widened at the sight, there is a truck carrying some loads comes barreling down the fly over and suddenly swerves, which sends it toppling over onto its side and collided with bus. The t-bond collision sends the trunk toppled and iron rods were flying to the sides..

Everything happened in the fraction of a minute and one iron rod flying towards me to impaled my face..I didn't expect this, my mind went blank for a minute and I know its going to hit me straight, i threw my arms in front of my face to brace the moment.

"Click", I heard a sharp sound and as I try to look, I felt his body pushed me hard to clock side direction and instead of feeling the cold metal, I felt the warm blood. The sudden hit made the car lost its balance and fell off the bridge, hitting the road and everything went blank.

I could not suppress the memories that was replaying in my mind any longer...I was trying to retrieve the last momentum before my mind went blank.

"Click" the sound...I badly wanted to know it, I was thinking hard... the sound...yes! It's the seat belt..he released the belt...with realization growing...Ohmygod!!! has he taken the blow??? I was horrified at the thought! Has he put his life on the line to sa..save me???

My eyes fluttered OPEN!
