I was asleep for five days showing no signs of waking up. Finally, on the sixth day I regained consciousness.
From that day I stopped talking to others, even my parents. I never mentioned him to anyone. I stayed in my room all the time and just went to school and came back, I even stopped singing or listening to music. One day I found myself staring at a guitar on a display in a shop and decided to buy it.
My schedule changed from home to school to home, to playing guitar whenever I was free. I get so engrossed in it that I don't even realise when my fingers start bleeding. It happened whenever I played guitar. Sometimes I forget to eat food because of which I fainted many times. My health became very frail.
It was almost a year since he left. My parents were very worried about me. Somehow they found my secret diary which I started maintaining from last year. It recorded all the incidents since he came in my life. Without my knowledge they contacted Levi. Hearing that something happened to me, he hurriedly came back to meet my parents.
*Bang* The door was kicked open. He froze seeing my parents. "Where is she?" he asked. They didn't say anything and walked out and he followed them. They took him to my hospital ward.
He was shocked seeing my condition.
His eyes widened "How did this happen" he whispered loudly seeing me unconscious on the hospital bed.
"Come with us" they said and took him to an empty room.
They looked at him and said something that shocked him to the core "She has Dependent Personality Disorder. She got it when she was younger."
"Why?" he asked in disbelief.
"It's our fault, actually. 😔 When she was young, we were busy and couldn't spend time with her though she tried to get close to us. After 2-3 years she stopped talking to us. Seeing her condition we thought that she may be lonely, so we hired a nanny. After which her condition was improving as she got attached with her nanny...... but one day when she went out with the nanny, they got into an accident in which the nanny died.......... Since then, she has closed herself off. Then we visited the psychiatrist as her condition wasn't improving, that's when we got to know about her disorder. After many years, it was the first time we saw her with someone and that was you. We thought that there was finally some hope. But then we saw that she returned to her detached self, and it was even worse than before. One day we found a diary in her room. You might have not noticed it, but she would start behaving strangely or start panicking when you are about to leave or when you don't respond to her."
That's when he remembered her odd behavior. One day when he said that he was going to his hometown for some days she turned pale and afterwards kept silent the entire day. After recalling this there were other incidents that suddenly came to his mind and his heart started thumping loudly and he could hear it in his ears.
"The day you left, we found her unconscious outside the park with her hands and knees bleeding" they paused, finding it hard to control themselves from crying.
"After taking her back, she was in coma for five days. After waking up she stopped talking completely.......but one day she brought a guitar which she started playing in her room for hours continuously. We found out that her fingers started getting injured and were bleeding most of the time. She used to forget about eating and sleeping altogether and just play guitar. This time she did this for eleven hours continuou......."
*BANG* "The patient is awake" came a nurse.
Before others could react, Levi ran back to her room and what he saw almost crushed his heart.
She was sitting there staring blankly in space without moving. As if sensing something there was a ripple in her eyes, but soon they turned blank again. Soon realizing who was standing in front her, her heart beat quickened and the machines connected to her started beeping.
"Quick......the sedative" shouted the doctor.
She again got unconscious after being injected. I stood there looking pale and my mind was buzzing. Finally, after sometime only I was left there staring at her unblinkingly. I went near her slowly and sat down on the stool beside the bed. I saw that she has become thinner and even more pale that even some veins were visible on her neck. As I was about to hold her hand, I saw that there were bandages covering her fingers almost completely. I felt a pang in my heart and held her hand cautiously. I sat there for almost the whole day. At night, she started frowning suddenly in sleep. I tried my best to sooth her but realized that it wasn't working, so I bent down and went near her ears and started humming. After some time she relaxed and again fell into a deep slumber.
Almost at dawn when I came back in the room carrying breakfast I saw her trying to sit up and strode to her then gently put a pillow behind her and helped her sit.
She was looking at me fixedly "Levi" she whispered.
"Hmm it's me" I smiled softly at her, trying not to agitate her.
"You came" she smiled slightly at me, just like before.
"Do you want to eat something, I brought porridge."
She nodded, and I started feeding her spoon by spoon. After eating, she was looking at me continuously.
"What's wrong" I asked as I smiled slightly.
"Can I not wake up" she asked softly "You are only there in my dreams, so I don't want to wake up. Can I stay here for forever?"
His smile faltered, hearing her and the tears he was holding back from the moment he saw her started falling.
He got up from his seat and took her in his arms making her sit on his lap "Sorry, I'm sorry it's my fault. I'm sorry"
I held his face gently "What happened Levi? Stop crying. What's wrong?"
He looked at me and held my hands "This is not a dream. You are awake and I'm here with you. Look can you feel me." he asked keeping my hand on his chest.
My eyes widened, and I started struggling.
"Leave me!! Let me go!!! Why are you here?"
"LET GO OFF ME"
I thrashed my hand and the IV drip needle came out. The back of my hand was bleeding and so were my fingers.
Suddenly he held me tightly by my arms with one hand while holding the back of my neck with the the other. His lips covered mine and I froze. Seeing me stop moving he deepened the kiss, his tongue entering my mouth. "Mhmm" I moaned and shivered as his tongue slightly grazed the roof of my mouth.
I tapped his shoulders feeling myself becoming breathless and he left me.
"LEAVE I DON'T....mmmm" He again captured my lips not giving me the chance to speak.
His hand travelled from my arms to my hair trailing my spine with his fingers.
"Uhmmm!!!" I trembled.
Finally, after kissing for what seemed like an eternity he stopped.
I almost slid down feeling breathless and weak all over, but he held me near his chest.
He said softly in my ears "I was being targeted by my family's enemies. If I stayed here you would have been in danger. I tried to avoid you for a few days thinking that I'll tell you later, but they got to know about you, so I had to leave. That day when you came near my car, I saw their men nearby, so I couldn't let you get close to me." He went quiet after saying that.
"You could have told me when we met or at least left a message."
"Just telling me that you would come back would have been enough!!!!"
"But NO YOU LEFT WITHOUT A WORD!!!!"
"How was I supposed to know"
*Sob* "Hic" "Hic"
"Don't cry" "Don't cry" "I'm sorry"
"I won't ever leave you again" he hugged me tightly.
"I promise"
"Really?"
"Hmm Really"
"Then..... then can you...... kiss me again" my voice turned into a whisper at the end as I looked at him blushing.
"Sure Princess" he smirked and kissed me.
This time the kiss was so intense that I found myself turning into a puddle in his arms.
His one hand was holding my hair in a fist and the other was inside my hospital gown stroking my waist as it slowly climbed up and pinched me.
*Gasp* my lips opened as he looked at me mischievously and his tongue dove in.
"Mhhmmm wait.... " my voice died down in his mouth.
After some time he finally let me breathe.
He started giving me baby kisses, on my face, jaw and neck.
*Giggle* "That tickles Levi"
"Hah" he stopped and looked at me, my eyes were moist and lips glistening, with a blushing face.
His eyes darkened slightly, then he hugged me "You'll be the death of me. "
