Chapter 3 [ QUESTIONS ]

I struggled to open my eyelids as my eye's were even  adamant to open... My head was banging terribly.. But something disturbed a lot.. Like some pungent smell of phenol and medicines..

I reluctantly opened my eyes and closed it immediately due to the irritation caused by the sudden bright light.... Where the hell am I? Am I alive?!

" Ms Williams are you okay?"  A feminine voice broke my chain of thought.. lifting my eyelids I saw a female figure approaching towards me... Rubbing my eye's with the back of my palm, I cleared the blurred vision... She is the same lady Whom I met in the morning at the Front Office...

"Wh....where.... am...I??" I asked while trying to sit up.... "Careful dear....you need rest...." She said while helping me to get up and handing me a glass of water.... I gulped the water in one go.... I was starving for water...."you are in the sick room dear.... You were found locked in the old store room... Students are not allowed to go there....if Mr Khan....um..... Leave it... You should take rest.... " Mr Khan...... Did she say Mr Khan???? Why didn't she complete her words?? I am hundred percent sure that she uttered his name! Those eyes! I still remember those charming pair of eyes! It was his eyes! My heart says that it was him who rescued me! Why is she hiding it?

I was lost in my thoughts when all of a sudden I saw her turning around and moving towards the door... No I want my damn answers! She can't leave me like it! With much difficulty I stepped out of the bed... " Wait! You can't go like this!" I shouted... I was taking long stride's towards her but unfortunately I tripped and fell down... "Shitt!" I hissed in pain....

I saw her running towards me..."omg! Why did you get out of the bed!" She asked while

Helping me to stand up.....

" Who found me in the Store Room?!?" I asked her directly without waiting anymore... " You should take rest Ms Williams. I am going to contact your  parents'... They don't know anything about the incident..." She said with nervousness laced in her her voice....I am damn sure that she is hiding something from me! " Don't try to divert the topic! I know you are hiding something! I have the full rights to know everything! Why didn't you complete your sentence?" I asked holding her arm.. " wh... What....are you talking about!??" She asked in a trembling voice...

It's time to use some tricks...."I know it was Mr Khan! I have seen his face!"  I lied! I haven't seen his face but I have seen those charming eyes and somewhere deep inside my heart I know that it was Mr Khan....

"You.....you...saw his face?!'' She asked with a horrified expression as if she was sure that I haven't seen his face....  Gotchaa! I am assured now! I am really a smart girl *grinning*

" Yes! I have definitely seen his face! Now tell me why were you hiding it???" I asked with a stern face... I am such a good actor hehe..... "But....But.....How can this be p.. possible??? Umm...Actually... Sir ordered us strictly to not let you know that he saved you...." She buttered out... Wait..... What?! But why?? Why the hell on earth did he ordered this to them..... My curiosity to meet this Mr Khan is increasing with each passing moment!

"Why?" Was the only word that came out of my mouth.... why doesn't he wants me to know that he was the one who saved me..... I looked at that lady.... I don't know her name yet....

" I don't know! He just ordered us to keep our to keep our mouth shut..." she said and I could see the truth in her eyes...."please don't say to sir that I told you all these!" Saying so She jerked off my hands and hurried out of the room... What the hell is going on?!!

I am standing in this sick room without any single clue about the happenings! I don't even know where my phone and bag is!!! I searched the whole sick room after that lady left but couldn't find it! Wait.... El.... Elijah!!! He must be having my bag and my phone..... I need to go and find him! I don't even know what time it is!!! Oh godd!

I ran out of the room and looked for a way! I can't wait here anymore. I will have to go out and find out the complete truth!

I spotted the front office! Fortunately  I know the way as I visited the Front Office in the morning itself! Making my way out of the room I strided towards th exit as I know Mr. Khan must be leaving right now.... The sun is about to set... He must have done his task for which he came here...

My throat tightened when my eyes met the sight Infront of me. There was a huge crowd and this made me think how popular this man is!

I can't stand here, gawking at the crowd of students like a fool. I will have to reach out to him and thank him......Afterall he wouldn't have been there I would have died long ago.....

I couldn't help but smile thinking about him, the ELIXIR of my life. OMG Isabel you had even given him a nick name! Waitttt! What the hell am I thinking?! Focus! Focus Siara! You need to know the truth!

I made my way into the crowd of students trying really hard to reach out to him but the crowd was so heavy that instead of pushing them away it was me who was being pushed and crushed like a disposal bag! What the hell!!!

I seriously had no experience with dealing the crowd since this was the first time I ever dared to step into a one.....

" Hey can you please move away, I wanna meet Mr. Khan! " I said to the girl who was standing next to me as I noticed her pushing me away....

" Not only you but everyone her wants to meet him. " she mocked me and I couldn't help but sigh know defeat....I am surely positive about two things one he was the one to save me and two, I can't meet him at least not at this moment....  Oh god! Why is this happening with me?!!!

But I promise myself that I would definitely meet him soon and convey my thanks to him as well as know the truth...

My thoughts were interrupted when I felt myself being pulled out, forcefully.....

I raise my head to look at the sudden intruder, I sighed out in relief when I saw him.... It was Elijah......

I felt him wrapping his arms around me and rescuing me out of this huge crowd of students as well as paparazzi.... Within a moment we were a few steps away from the crowd... All of a sudden Elijah hugged me tightly..

" Where the hell were you?!! I was fucking going crazy searching you in the whole goddamn school!!! You even left your phone and bag on that damn cafeteria!!! I was literally freaked out bell!!!!" He shouted and here I am feeling suffocated because of his tight grip.... I pushed him lightly and he immediately moved away from me....

I looked at his face..... God! He was really scared.... His hair's were messy.... He was looking tired.... " Um... I am really... Sorry Elijah.... actually..... I was locked up in a store room.... Somehow I managed to Come outside and when I saw This huge crowd.... I came running towards out of curiosity..." I lied... I don't want to tell him about Mr Khan.... I need to know about the whole matter at first.......

I thought that Elijah would ask me more questions but to my luck he didn't instead of it He informed me about the ball that is organised by the school management on the occassion of Mr khan's Visit.... I was mentally dancing! I will be able to meet him!!!!

Elijah handed me my phone and bag.... Thank god! it was with him! I was shocked to see that dad had called me more than twenty times!! I immediately called him back.... "Isabell! Are you ok!??! We got a call from your school! I am coming right now! Don't worry! Your dad is on his way!!!!!" He literally shouted on the phone out of panic.... Why is my dad so cute?!!! Goddd!!  "Dad!!! I am absolutely fine! Please drive carefully as I know that you are flying the car right now!!! Slow down!!! I will be waiting for you at the entrance!" I said and he disconnected the call after making sure that everything is fine....

I turned around and saw Elijah talking to someone on his phone.... He was standing at a distance so he haven't heard any of my conversations with my dad... Good for me.... He will not ask me more questions....

" Hey Bell! Let's go home... I will drop ya!"  Elijah said while approaching me... " Um... Thanks Elijah but my Dad is coming so I will go with him..... Meet you tonight at the ball.." I said...

" I will not attend the Ball tonight as I have to go to visit my grandpa..... I won't be able to come..... I have informed Stephan and Emily, they will come.." he said.... Atleast Emily and Stephan  are coming, so I won't feel alone.... Elijah guided me towards the entrance after we saw the huge crowd slowly dissolving..... I spotted a huge black Limo  surrounded by several SUV's speeding away...



I will meet you Mr Saheer Khan! I will definitely meet you tonight!

My Dad arrived and I introduced Elijah to him..... After bidding a good bye and thanking Eli for everything I left with my Dad..... informed Dad about the ball that is organised today.... He was reluctant at first but after a good convincing session he finally agreed!!!! How can I leave my last opportunity to meet him???

We reached home at near about 6 pm and Mom was preparing dinner..... " How was your day?!!" I heard her voice from the kitchen.... " Fabulous Mom!" Yeah..... What a fabulous day I had.... *NOTE THE SARCASM*

She came out of the kitchen and kissed Dad.... They are really cute.... Dad informed her about the Ball... she agreed... She doesn't know anything that happened in school today, I told Dad to hide it because she would be worried....

Mom asked me to get ready as the school authorities asked us to reach there by 8 pm... So, I directly went upstairs, towards my room and saw that it was quite arranged! Oh Mom! I love you!! She have arranged all of my clothes inside the cupboard.  

I got inside my bathroom and opened the shower.... Closing my eyes and the only thing I saw was his eyes.... Those beautiful charming eye's....

Oh god!!! What is happening to you Isabell?!!! Focus! I need to meet him and thank him that's it!

Brushing off my thoughts  I got out of my bathroom after wrapping a towel around my body.... I reached my closet to look for an appropriate dress for the ball....  Just then my eyes fell upon my white high low dress which was gifted by Mom on my 17th birthday last year.... It Will be perfect for the ball....



After drying my hair's I  wore my dress and  did my makeup....

At last I wore my black heels... after looking for the last time at the mirror I decided to go down as I was looking quite presentable.....

" Oh My! My! You are looking just like a fairy Bell!!" Mom said making me blush....

After bidding a good bye to mom...... I along with dad left for the Ball, Which was organised in the school itself.... I texted Emily in the car itself and then we decided that she will drop me home tonight....

We reached the school, Dad left and I was standing infront of the school building gawking at the breath taking decorations... The entire building was decorated with fairy lights.... Student's were parking their cars and then walking towards the main hall.... The entire way leading to the main hall was decozrated with flowers.... I started progressing towards the hall.... Observing my surroundings and enjoying the decorations... I slowly made my way into the hall.... I was awestruck by the view infront of my eyes!  The hall was looking damn beautiful! I can keep on looking at it throughout my life!



The hall was filled with students..... Some were gossiping ... Some were having their food..... A beautiful classic music was echoing in the hall making a Romantic environment.... My eyes reached on the right side of the huge hall.... A crowd was present over there maybe taking an interview of Mr Khan.... I was going to take a step towards the crowd but then I stopped..... It's useless to go over there at this moment... I will Never be able to see him.... So, I started Walking towards the juice parlour while texting Emily.....

All of a sudden I bumped into someone....

"What the fuck?!!!" I heard a harsh but familiar voice... I looked up and was froze when I realized that it was none other than Rachael, God I am dead!

"You!!! You bitch!! What the fuck are you doing here!!'' she screamed and to my bad luck I saw her group joining her.

"What have this whore done again?!!" One of the boy's said And then I lost my mind! " Shut up you idiot!!How dare you to call me a Whore!!" I shouted at them grabbing the public attention....

They all were burning in anger and I was really satisfied with the fact that atleast I showed them that I am not weak anymore!

"I think she didn't got a proper lesson last time! We should treat her A perfect worthy lesson and I swear she'd remember this through out her life!" The muscular guy said while roaming his eyes shamelessly over my body making me uncomfortable.....

I saw him smirking at me and progressing towards me.... I am  frozen at this moment.... Fear is overpowering all my senses.... He was Inches apart from me.... And I closed my eyes out of panic and fear....

Thud!!

I Heard a sound... Immediately opening my eyes, I was horrified to see that guy fallen on the ground.. Blood was oozing out from his mouth.....

And then my eyes fell on the a strong well build figure standing infront of me like a shield....

"Don't you dare to touch her!"
