TWO MONTH TIME

Lisa entered the ward with mixed emotions because after so many years they are going to meet don't know whether to feel happy about it or seeing her in this condition make her feel worse. Her chain of thoughts disturbed by the nurse voice and she kept everything away for time being because right Clae's condition is important for her so she entered the room by sighing off. Once clae came her view she ran to her and hugged her tightly and started to cry but within a second by hearing Clae's hissing sound in pain she left her and apologized.

Lisa: I'm so sorry Dissy does it impair, let me have a look, sorry.

( by her continuous encounter Clae giggled slightly and held her hands affectionately)

Clae: L....Liss calm down I'm fine just a little pain t....thats it, okay?

(just for few words she coughed slightly)

Lisa: No no Dissy don't speak much just now you have came back from such a hell so please chill down,okay?

(clae nodded her head and roamed her eyes over the room but not catching anyone on the sight she turned to Lisa with questioning face)

Lisa: What Dissy, do you want anything?

Clae: Where is Xander?

Lisa: He is waiting outside you wanna see?

Clae: No no I just asked and now I want to sleep for a while, shall I?

Lisa: Of course, you take a nap meantime I'll fetch something for you to eat and while I'm returning I'll take Xander along with me, okay?

Clae: Fine, don't rush, okay?

(she chuckled a bit and caressed her head before leaving the ward. Once she came out of the ward her smile faded by seeing Alex because he came nearer to her to ask about Clae but she stubbornly ignored him so left with no choice he masked his cold face)

Alex: Miss WILL YOU PLEASE TELL ME HOW IS SHE DOING.

(he roared at her because he know Clae would never ask about him but he want to know about health condition. Xander signaled her to answer but she again refused but he requested her with his eyes so she answered him)

Lisa: She is fine now but still feeling slight Drowsiness hence she is taking a nap and I'm here to fetch some food for her and then Xander she asked you to visit her while I'm returning. will you?

(she mentioned this particularly to see Alex's reaction but he didn't show anything but Daniel jerked off by her words)

Xander: Why not and you wait for me I'll have a check with doctor about her diet and then I'll be heading back with the food.

Lisa: Sure, come fast.

(with a slight nod he left the place, since Clae is taking a nap she haven't returned too the ward and waited there until Xander's arrival meantime Alex want to see Clae but something stopped him also he want to meet her at any cost and he want to make it up about his marriage. So left with no choice he entered the ward hurriedly but Lisa tried to stop him which is no avail. By sensing some sound Clae opened her eyes hastily. But Lisa stood infront Clae and Alex deafeningly but Lisa started to shout at him)

Lisa: Mr just now she waked up again you want to put her back to coma, isn't it? please go out she is so tired and she want to rest well so better don't pester her.

(for her whole words Alex haven't shown any sort of reaction and his eyes only tapering on Clae's eyes only then he just pushed her aside and went closer to Clae after sensing his presence nearer to her, she started to move backward and fear roamed on her face while killed Alex. Meantime Xander also arrived and entered the ward having the food parcel in his hand. Later sensing a thickness of the air he went closer to Alex)

Xander: Alex, just now she get back from hell until she get back her composure leave her, please.

(For his accusation Alex just gave him a meaningful stare and shifted it to Clae before starting)

Alex: Xander I just want to talk to her and I promise my single finger too won't lay on her, okay I just need to talk to her, will you ?

Xander: But Alex she ....

(his words were cut off by Alex's)

Alex: Xander am I not supposed to talk to my wife for a while?

(before Xander could give a response Clae spoke)

Clae: Xander let him speak you two wait outside.

( by her words everyone snapped their head towards her side in a confused state)

Clae: Liss I'll be fine so please wait outside, okay

(by her assertive words made Xander pass her a meaningful glare before leaving the ward with Lisa. Once they were out of sight a huge silence held over there and Alex broke it)

Alex: H...how do y..you feel now?

(he stammered his each words)

Clae: Fine.

(again silence played over for a while)

Alex: Let me take this straight, Clae I didn't do anything to hurt you that night but.....but I thought to make it up our marriage so tried to convince you but I ended up with some misery and I'm extremely sorry about it. Now I'm not going to give you divorce nor gonna let you go that easily because you are my wife, okay?

(she give ear to his each and every words but felt more bitterness in heart not like she had feeling for him just she felt bitter about her life)

Clae: What do you want me do to get divorce from you?

(he felt so dejected by her words but managed himself to continue)

Alex: I... I want you to stay with me for 2 month as a real wife remember not for sexual life and I won't touch you without your consent. I want this 2 month to feel a wife's affection and love in my life, if at the same time you fell for me you need to be honest and accept me, by any chance you don't feel anything for me in this whole time I'll let you go by your own by giving you divorce, okay?

(she was astound by his words because the Alex she used to know for this whole time was like a dominant and monster who will get what he want but this one is new to her, at the same time she felt after two month I'll be free and gonna live happily with Eric this conjecture itself brought a smile on her face and in a fraction of second it fades away by any chance he manipulate me or take me by going out of hands means what will I do. Her chain thoughts were interrupted by Alex voice)

Alex: I know whats on your mind, I vow you I won't touch you without your consent and if in case it happens at any situation means its full of accident at the same time I want your full alliance to work this out, okay?

Clae: Okay, I'll go with you but under one condition.

Alex: Yes tell me.

Clae: If in case I didn't fall for you in this whole time you shouldn't force me or do anything further to make me stay with you?

(he felt so downcast by her words at the same time deep down he had a hope he will get her at any cost and agreed with her)

Alex: Okay, is there anything else?

Clae: Hmmm yes for this whole time Lisa will be staying with me, okay?

Alex: I want this marriage to be real if she stays with you how could we get to know each other, I can do one thing she can stay at the same mansion not with you, is that okay?

(by his words her eyes widened like saucer but left with no choice she agreed atleast Lisa would be her side this itself spread a wave of happiness through her heart)

Clae: Alright then, no one should know about this deal between us and once I'm getting discharged this will embark, okay?

Alex: Sure, now take good rest and don't worry about anything I'll take my leave if there is anything just give me a call or drop me a text, okay?

(without arguing much she nodded her and he left the room by sharing a meaningful stare towards her, once the door swung open both Xander and Lisa rushed in the room to check her after looking into her brighten face they let out a sigh of relief and Xander unpacked the food which he brought by inquiring their conversation)

Xander: Did he threaten you again with anything else?

Clae: Absolutely not, we just had chat and he asked about my condition that's it.

Lisa: Dissy please tell us if anything is bothering you we are here for you?

(Lisa hold her hands concernedly and asked her without having any trust with Alex)

Clae: No Lisa nothing happened here and I'm the one who cut my wrist that day not him, okay?

(they both shared glance among them by hearing her words)

Lisa: Why are you defending him after this much, Dissy and even though you did it the one who

set off you to do that would be definitely him, didn't he?

Clae: Liss, listen to me whatever happened is happened and right now I'm fine everything is gonna back to normal and at end of the day he is my husband so shall we drop this here?

(her last words made everyone skip their breath and Xander thought himself Alex was upto something and he is one responsible for her sudden change and we need too discuss about this with him later. By thinking to himself he gestured Lisa to stop the conversation and to feed her the food she also obliged)
