Chapter Fourteen: A Short Romance

Six days went by. I had got no news of anything. I was completely okay. I could walk by myself to the bathroom, have my own food and all that stuff. Neither Ionen had visited me again, nor had I got any news. I think Ionen was too much busy, finding out Mr. Macadam.

The doctor thought that I am completely ok. He said me that he will ask Ionen to come and get me the next day.

Every day since my admission, I used to have pure light chicken soup. Their cooking was also pretty good.

By the way, the postmortem of Clark showed that the excessive accumulation of fire on kerosene had made his blood badly toxic. The surgeons, physicians and other doctors were sobbing, that they should have conducted the autopsy immediately after bringing him. But as he had no family members during that time for payment, while Ionen had already done the payment earlier with the reward given to him by The General, they had to do everything with me before Clark. Even Clark's name was not registered. He was just brought their, with no family members, no registry and no registration fees.

I had a new partner beside me in my coach. It was a girl. Her name was Ursula Jones. She was admitted due to a leg injury. She was very beautiful. Her personality and her way of talking was also admirable. She was very cute in her own way. Firstly, I took no such attention to her but lately, I just fell for her. I don't know why I couldn't make much eye contact with her. I started blushing whenever she looked at me. I just fell in love. This thing had never happened to me before. It now became very difficult for me to stay with her in the same coach. This uneasiness wouldn't stop until I confess to her my actual feelings.

The next day soon came. Both I and the lady were discharged. I knew, maybe I would never see her again. So I went up to her. We both were in the reception, waiting for ourselves to be picked up.

I went up to Ursula, as manly as possible. She looked at me with her beautiful blue eyes.

'You know, Miss Jones,' I said in a stammered voice 'I am only saying this to you because we might never again meet.'

Suddenly an old man came in. I felt that I should not say this in front of him. I went back to my seat. Ursula looked at me weirdly. Then she looked up to the old man with a smile. It was her father.

'I am glad your injuries became completely fine my daughter.'

The man went up to The Receptionist Madam, paid the fees and went away with her daughter. Ursula gave me look before leaving. She smiled. She again turned front and went away with her dad. That smile spoke a thousand words. She had indeed understood my feelings about her. All women's minds are very powerful. They understand things before it even said to them. I was a bit depressed. But I revived myself by saying myself that I will find out a life mate very soon.
