Aliaa's POV

Numb. That was what I was feeling when I felt getting my consciousness back. But it was still difficult to open my eyes. My body felt like it was hit by a truck but my mind was numb. Darkness was the first thing, that I felt when I started feeling my surroundings.

I could hear muffled voices around me. They were saying something but it was too hard for my ear and mind to grasp those words. There was an echo of voices around me but I was too numb to react.

My throat ached and my mouth felt like I was in the middle of a dessert. My whole body felt paralyzed to move. I tried lifting my hand or moving them but it seemed like there was a huge weight upon my hands. I tried opening my eyes but only able to squeeze them.

I was getting frustrated and getting panicked with each passing second but there was this feeling in me that wanted to open my eyes. But for whom I was not sure. I didn't even know what I will see when I will open my eyes.

Are the hell and heaven real thing? Will I be in heaven or hell? Technically I should be in hell because it's true that I killed someone. And I should be punished for that sin. However, I didn't feel any sorry for doing that sin. Those were the thoughts swirling around my mind.

There was this muffled voice again which broke my train of thoughts of going into a memory lane. This time I tried a little harder to at least open my eyes or move my fingers. Even trying that much harder, I couldn't open my eyes or move my fingers. So, I shifted on trying to calm my nerves down and concentrate on listening to the voice, maybe that voice may give me some clue of where I was and what happened?

I made my breathing even and tried to calm my racing heart. After a few minutes, I was succeeded in calming myself. Now, I could hear the muffled voice, not clearly but it was ok.

I paid my full concentration on that voice. It was saying,

"How are you today? I hope everything is fine. I don't want to trouble you but... I am not fine. I miss you. I miss you very much. Everyone does. Mom, your Dad, Aarav, Aaron, Ms. Meera, Abhinav, Sahil. Everyone.... You know I never thought that I will get attached to someone that much after my mom that I won't be able to live without. But with you, I just want to spend every second of my life where I wouldn't have to ever let you go out of my sight,"

That voice, it was too familiar to me. but I couldn't pinpoint who was he. I continued listening,

"I didn't even realize when you became an inseparable part of me. without you, I can't even sleep and eat. It seems like I am breathing but not alive." He got silent suddenly. It seemed like he was crying. And I didn't even realize when my eyes started flowing with tears listening to his words.

After weeping and taking deep breaths he again continued, "You know na that I am not a romantic person. But for you, I promise I will become that also. Taking you on dates, doing all the romantic stuff. But please wake up baby girl. I can't live like this without you. I even promised myself that I will propose you for marriage when you will get up from this hospital bed. So, now, if you want me to propose to you. then get up,"
