Chapter 20

Whenever I was in the park, I had seen her sitting on the bench while watching my every moment. I kinda liked it but I know she was not aware of that. She might have thought I'm someone who would be a stranger to her until the night she met me. Well... I'm kinda stranger to her, aren't I? I kept thinking of her when she was absent for one week although I don't want to. 'What would have happened to her after the incident with Karl?' The question itched my mind every time and I felt guilty. I know I should have helped her but I didn't because I thought it's none of my fucking business but now I'm ashamed of myself. I don't know what that bastard did to her, but when I met her on the road, I know something terrible happened to her. She seemed broken. When I admitted her to the hospital, I felt awful. I don't want to make myself weak for anyone but I didn't sleep that night either. The doctor said she had a slight injury on her head but nothing to worry about. I felt relief after what I had heard from him. The next day, I called the doctor to know about her condition and he told me that she was doing well. From that day I expected to see her in the park but she didn't show up. The other day I was happened to overhear the conversation between Quinn and Kevin when I walked to the kitchen regarding Sheila's visit to her hometown. But deep down I know it's not the truth. She might be lying. That's what my heart said. I tried to divert my mind but no vain. All the girls are drooling over me, but I never give any attention to anyone but now I am kept thinking and worried about one girl who caught my heart. I'm pretty much aware that our first meeting was not good because I made her pain. I didn't saw her crossing the road. When I felt I hit something or someone, Quinn yelled at me to stop the car but I ignored and went on. The next day when I saw Karl twisting her hand, I felt pity for her. I want to help her but something stopped me from doing this. When Quinn said how much she hates me, that day I started to expand a feeling for her, and I confirmed that I have started to fall for her. This girl broke all my rules. There was a day when I got jealous when Quinn and Kevin hook up with her and had a great time. But I was not in my right mind to be with her and was afraid of falling for her even more. But when I saw her standing under the water in the park, fully soaked wet, I know who did it to her. Karl. The only name popped onto my mind. At that time I decided to break all my laws. He is not going to stop bullying her and I am not going to stand watching her suffering. I snapped out of my thoughts when the nurse came and told me that her head struck on the floor when she fell down. I groaned in frustration. Not again. "Since her head is healing from the minor injury she had already, it led her unconscious." She informed further but my attention got on Karl who is coming towards the direction of where we are standing. It's time to give him a lesson. I fisted my hand and stood there ready to face him. * Karl's POV: When I saw him carrying Sheila in his arm I felt the sudden urge to stop him and wanted to snatch her away from him and when I did, he defied my threat and carried her away while I was standing there like a dumb ass. I don't like it when anyone touches the strand of her hair other than me whether it's from hate or affection I have the full rights over her, only ME. When she bumped into me the first day of her college, I felt something towards her maybe anger or affection or-- the name I exactly don't know what it is. And day by day I used to bully her to gain her attention, I have no idea why I want her full attention but being such a naive, she didn't feel anything towards me and that drove me crazy even more. I like her attitude and behaviour.  Whenever she sees me, she hid behind the pillar or the wooden table or even behind some random person. She might have thought I didn't notice her, but I had noticed all her movements. If she wants to play a game definitely I will participate, then two can play, I kinda like it. But sometimes her behaviour made me lose my temper and the little bit of patience I have with her. Whenever I tried to get to know about her, she kinda ignores me and goes against my will. If anyone goes against my will, I would definitely sue them but not her. I need her beside me, it feels like she is my cure. Cure to my hidden wound. When she threatened to drop her studies, I have no option from burning her document cause I don't like the idea of her dropping college. She is mine and she is not going anywhere. I will make sure that whom she belongs to. I own her-- her everything. I will make sure to everyone knows she is mine. Mine to spoil. A rage rushed into my body like a volcano when I saw her at the party. I have no problem with her presence there, but the problem is she was with Tammy, my cousin. If anyone had in his place, I would make sure that they were dead now but with him, Nah. I consider him as my brother but I won't give any shit to anyone even they belong to my blood.
