I took Anna's hand and dragged her out of the dark alley. Once we were out on the busy streets, I stopped and turned to look at her. "Are you okay? Did he do something to you? Do you want to go report him right now or you want to go with your father?" I asked looking at her to see if there were any marks or bruise on her. the place where held on to her wrist were red due to his tight grip. Next time I see him I will kill that good for nothing Alex.

"I am fine but I don't think that you are though." She touched my face where Alex punched me. I flinched at her touch and she pulled her hand away. "I am sorry." She looked down at the ground as if it was more important to her right now. But I have more important question to ask her.

"will you tell me, what the heck you were doing all alone in a dark alley by yourself? Where was your driver? Aren't you supposed to go out with him always? Do you have any bloody idea that what could have happened if I was not there luckily? Will you now even answer me?" I was breathless by the time I finished.

"only when you will stop speaking..." she paused and then asked, "Will you walk me to home?"

"why not?" we started to walk in the direction to her home. Just ten minutes from here.

"Mr. Dickenson got a call that her daughter was in labour, so I told him to go and hurry to the hospital. I told him that I would walk home since it was not far from the shop but I got lost." She sighed before she spoke again. "and then Alex saw me. I tried to hurry and run away from him but ended in that alley. He was trying to kiss me like the last time but I couldn't do anything I held my hands and legs between his." She stopped suddenly and I looked at her.

"we have reached the house." She said looking to the side. I looked to where she looked and indeed we were in front of Hemsworth's residence.

"oh! I think I should leave now. Won't want your father to see me with you when he himself told me to stay away from you just some hours ago." I turned to walk in the direction that lead to where I live.

"wait Adam, I know he won't say anything when he knows you saved me. And he would also help you clean up your wounds and treat the bruises, you know." She started walking towards the door while I stayed fixed on my spot debating whether I should go with her or not.

"Are you coming?" she rang the doorbell and the door open revealing a worried looking Mr. Hemsworth.

"where were you? I called John to know when you would be returning and he said that he is at the hospital and you would be walking home. You should have been here like half an hour before. I was so worried." He was looking her with worry.

"I am fine. I got lost and" she paused before adding "Adam helped me to get home." He looked past her and his eyes settled on me. scanning my face, he asked her, "I think some vital information is still missing Anna, taking into account the bruises and cuts on his face."

"I will tell about this afterwards, you won't mind in giving him a first aid." She looked at him expectantly. "would you?"

Mr. Hemsworth sighed before ushering me in. "the first aid is in kitchen. Come over here." I followed them. The kitchen was sleek and modern with granite countertops and white cabinets. Mr. Davidson made changes to the house. Anna gestured me to take a stool and took out the first aid box from a drawer.

"I will make us a coffee while dad does your first aid." Anna said taking out the coffee beans from a shelf above her. Mr. Hemsworth sat in front of me taking out cotton and antiseptic. "it will hurt." He told me. "sir, I am used to it and I can do it myself." I said referring to the cotton in his hand. Yes, it is true. I have been in fights and I have got hurt many times during football practices and all. So that doesn't matter.

"if you say so." He gave me the cotton and I cleaned my wounds. After I took a painkiller, Anna set a cup of coffee in front of me.

"now, will any one of you tell me how this happened?" Mr. Hemsworth asked looking between me and Anna.

"Alex attacked me, desperate for a kiss." Anna said taking a sip of her coffee. "who?" he asked her.

"the boy whom I punched and gave a castration threat. He actually.." she put her cup down and sighed. "he tried to molest me but Adam saved me dad. So nothing happened. I am fine. Everything is fine."

"how is this fine Anna? I told you to go and report." I told her. Is she insane or what? "I will but not just now, okay." She looked at me and then her dad.

"Anna, you don't need to be afraid of anything, you should know." He said calmly. "I know, dad." She put her cup in the sink and kissed his cheek. "I am going to bed. Good night." She looked at me. It is my cue to leave, Mr. Hemsworth doesn't like me anyway.

"I should also leave now." I told standing up. "before you go Adam, I want to have some words with you." Mr. Hemsworth looked at me. oh no! probably he will tell me to stay away from Anna. He had said it before too. "good night, Anna. Go to sleep." Anna looked between me and his father before deciding that it is better to sleep. "okay." She headed upstairs to her room leaving me and Mr. Hemsworth alone.

"Mr. Hemsworth. I know you told me to" I started to say but I was left in shock when he said, "thank you Adam, for saving her." that was not, what I expected. "um." What should I say? "it is the least I can do." he nodded at me. "but I still stand at what I said." Here it comes again 'Stay away from her' speech. "but it is her decision." I looked at him not clearly understanding.

"you should be home now." He said to me pulling me out of my thinking where I was trying to comprehend what he said.

"right. Good night Mr. Hemsworth." I walked towards the door and opened it. I stopped in between when he called my name again. "call me Daniel Adam." I nodded in his direction to walk to home and face my worried parents who have given me twenty-five calls till now. Let's just not talk about the messages they sent.!!!
