Hospital Proposal

LOVE WITHOUT LEGS

BACKGROUND: Hospital

Anna slowly tried to walk on her two feet with her mother supporting her by her shoulders. She felt like a New Born again. She was wearing only one shoes and the other one was with her mother. After hoping on one leg for a lifetime, her brain seems to have lost all kinds of contacts with the other leg. She was still admiring her foot that was taken out of the plastering. She looked at it like a Butterfly that just came out of its cocoon.

Two weeks had passed and she had already managed to finish the list given by Suhail and had come to hospital to take off her bandages. The time she spend with Suhail felt like an Amusement Park ride. For a guy without legs and for a girl he doesn't even know properly, the percentage of their liking for each other was quite high.

"Anna!" she heard the familiar puberty struck voice of Suhail from behind. She turned around to face him. His Lazy driver was running towards them with Suhail on his chair. He looked excited but the driver was rather tired.

"What are you doing here?"

"That's not important. You were the one who gave me your location earlier. Don't waste your time. Come, quickly. He pulled at her hands, she wobbled as they left the driver and their mother behind who looked confused and concerned. She was quickly taken to the huge elevator and everything was rushed until they entered and pressed a higher floor which she couldn't notice.

"What is this? "

"A proper proposal, didn't you want that? I am taking you to a good background view."

(THUMP. THUMP. THUMP) Her heart already started to make a lot of future plans. Before she could imagine a baby in the picture, she strike back with

"What if I say No?" She glanced down at him, fidgeting with her dress hem.

"Trust me; you won't have a second thought of saying no." He looked quite confident about her answer but deep down there was small doubt and worry.

(PING) The elevator door opened and Anna gasped at the view like a woman who saw her lover holding a ring. But… No. Their Vise Principal was sitting at one of the chairs with his one Leg Plastered till knees, rubbing his forehead, thinking about every trouble he had faced that month.

"Would you please become my Girl Friend?"

She was still looking at the Vise Principal. "Oh hell, YES!!" she was beaming till her aura surpassed the light in the elevators. That was not just a good background view. It was more about pleasing her.

She bend down and (Smooch) a kiss landed on his lips. Right now, he just wished an Asteroid would actually come for him. Even though, a simple peck wasn't enough for all that he did. He had to wait for The Vise Principal to take the steep stairs and then fall on him with his Wheelchair.

After a last glance at the embarrassed boy with fire of on his wheels, she walked confidently towards their Vise Principal, still with only one footwear. Right now, he was a desperate Man covered half way in Plaster, planning to visit temple under the fear of being cursed. Without an introduction or wish, she handed him her walking stick like a trophy.

"You'll need it, Sir." and confidently walked back.

"You did that for me? But, how?" Even though she wasn't gasping anymore, the curiosity was undying. Alas, her student has done such great project just after taking lessons for two weeks.

(PING) the doors closed again and he confessed. "it's true that I am unable to do a few things that others can do." Anna's eyebrows went all the up 5cm. "Ok, I mean, a lot of things. But trust me just once. I'll be the only man on Earth who can love you till the End."

"Are you bragging?"

Swish and her hands were pulled and she stumbled onto him. "Hmm. Kinda. So, am I your Boyfriend now?" the intimidating position and the less than half inch gap between them wasn't helping her to say No.

"Yes…."
