The Cinderella Story

Her eyes gleamed and a faint smile simmered on her pale face when she saw Raymond next to her. She found nothing but a comforting face which looked like it had been deeply worried for the last couple of hours.

He slowly came closer and propped her head a bit up with a pillow and gave her water to drink. Within a minute her chapped lips came back to life.

She took a deep breath and then looked at Vikram on the other side and smiled at him.

He looked happy but defeated at the same time.

He thought that he knew her better, but the way Raymond got her water, made him rethink.

Underestimating and undermining his love for Akira was probably not a good idea.

"Are you still worried?", she looked at Vikram and asked.

"No. You should be the one who should worry. How can you cry so much to cause your BP to dip so low? Be a little more aware of your health and your body Akira", Vikram said, with his hand still caressing hers.
