45 Panic-struck lass!

Little did Rhehan know that this is what is called falling in love. When you start caring for a person selflessly and ask nothing in return. When you just want to see the person happy and even a slighest of harm to that person will make you create havoc in the world.

After another 30 minutes of dead silence, Rose's eyes finally flickered. Rhehan snapped out of his thoughts and looked at her face intently. Rose frowned a little and suddenly opened her eyes in horror.

Rhehan assumed that the trauma of bullet hitting her must have scared her a lot.

"Don't worry! You are safe. The bullet just touched you minutely. Nothing serious happened," he assured patting her hand with utmost care.

Rose looked at Rhehan in horror. His soothing words were not calming her down at all. Rhehan was perplexed at her reaction.

"Relax Rose. Trust me, you are fine. You hit your head on the ground and passed out for some time. Thats all," he said with even more gentle tone.
