"It's a dream I should wake up"

In darkness someone is calling her desperately she tried to search for the source but was surrounded with complete darkness. it's Neo, he was crying pitifully she wants to reach him and hold him. There was light far away from her she followed the light. When Hiwa opened her eyes a white ceiling came into her sight, she slowly blinked to adjust with sudden light.

Her body was sore and she heard someone sobbing by her side.

She moved her fingers with great difficulty. He lifted his face to see his sister's gaze and immediately asked " Hiwa, do you hear me?" and he heard a mumbling sound so he reached her face " Happy Birthday fool" said Hiwa with hoarse voice but sweet gaze.

" You scare the hell out of me" he planted a kiss on her forehead.

" Better keep your promise" Hiwa winked at him.

"What promise!!" he wiped his tears looking away from her.

She smiled at his shamelessness.

The doctor came and check her condition and Neo informed his parents.

They soon reached hospital. " Her condition is stable now and we have to do some normal tests. She will feel weak and sore for sometime. we will start physiotherapy after a week." the doctor informed them.

They reached Hiwa with misty eyes and Helen hugged her. " I'm sorry dear" "Sorry Mama" they both said at the same time.

" I'm sorry" Hiwa said again looking at them " for making you all worry".

" No dear it's not your fault" said Samuel while patting her head ' It's my fault, I shouldn't agree with your request or we should have accompanied you' thought Samuel.

"It's not your fault either"said Hiwa as she can read his mind.

Later Samuel and Neo didn't go to work they had breakfast in the hospital. Helen cooked light porridge for Hiwa.

She completed it awfully as she never liked it's taste.

"Later I will cook all your favourites, okay!!" said Helen looking at her daughter.

Hiwa smiled in relief as she can't eat porridge for long.

After sometime, " Papa, why can't I move my left leg?" she asked while looking at him.

Three of them looked at each other, they don't know how to say.

Seeing their expression, she tried to lift the blanket but Neo caught her hands.

"Move" said Hiwa staring at him .He reluctantly released her hands.

Hiwa slowly lifted her blanket. Her face turned pale" What happ..ened to my.. legs" she asked with quivering lips. She tried to reach her legs Neo immediately hugged her "Don't" he whispered.

"No!!!No!!! it's not true. it's a dream, I should wake up" she screamed shaking her head.

"Ahhhhh" she was crying her heart out

Neo was holding her, she was trembling in his arms. He felt helpless.

Both Samuel and Helen are devastated seeing them.

Hiwa passed out from crying...

Doctor called them to his cabin.

"She met with terrible accident and will experience huge psychological trauma. Right now she need proper care both physically and mentally, so try to make positive environment, cheer her, build her confidence" doctor advised while removing his glasses.

They returned to the ward where Hiwa is sleeping peacefully. They need to protect her at all cost.
