My One And Only

Kian had just reached his home and after offering the flowers to his dead mother’s photo frame kept in her room with all her belongings, he went to his room for getting fresh.

Immediately he had his cell phone ringing and he groaned in annoyance for having to answer it.

For once he thought to just ignore and move on with the impending shower but then when he saw Calo’s name on the ringing tag, he thought maybe something had happened or else he would never call at this hour.

So he picked it up and as expected something worse had already happened. Right away he was on his Audi driving through the traffic like a raging hurricane.

He knew that something like this would have happened. Only if he relied on his instinct and stayed back, this would not have happened.

He prayed in his heart and mind for nothing more wrong to happen to her. He had heard how she had no one and he too left her for his needs, and there she was fighting with life and death.

He reached the plot and stopped his Audi in the middle without caring to park it first, he jumped out of his car and ran off to the nearby lake.

He had to apply brakes when he saw two of his guards in the dark water, searching for the body.

“Sir, you are here… We have assigned them to look out for her..”

Even before Carlos could complete his sentence, Kian jumped inside the water without care of the world.

“Sir??? Oh no!!”

Carlos and others screamed back when they saw their boss diving inside the water even shocking the other two guards who were on the water looking out for the body.

Kian dipped under the water, it was hard to see with bare eyes as the light was only sipping partially inside.

He was restless in his state as he swam around in one breathe searching for her. He swore to himself that he would not return without her.

And then he found his right leg stuck on something, he turned back to see and could not believe his eyes.

He quickly changed his direction and untangled the knot of cloth messed around his right ankle and at the same time felt warm in his heart when he got a closer view.

The men on the shore were all worried as they deployed more men to go down in the dark water, searching for two beings now.

And they were all relieved when they saw Kian up and were happier when they saw their boss carrying the woman, they all were looking out for.

The men in the water got closer to help Kian but he did not take their hands for help and continued to swim to the shore with her fragile body in his arms. He did not trust anyone with her anymore.

As soon as he reached the land, Carlos helped him up with others and he immediately signalled them to get the emergency doctor ready. Carlos had already done that homework.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Kian sat down on the muddy ground and rested her in his arms as he checked if she was breathing and when she was not, he almost felt like the world ending.

He did not think twice before slamming his mouth against hers, pressing her chest, applying pressure.

Once, twice, thrice and everyone was losing hope that the lady could be bought back to life but Kian continued with his repetitive action without a gap in between.

To everyone, he seemed as if he was possessed by some mind spell. His eyes had hope in them that she would wake up at any moment.

The doctor arrived and aided Kian. He began pressing her chest as Kian pasted his mouth to give her air to breathe again.

The nurse came in and began rubbing the palms and feet of Tinsley to warm up her body. Kian hugged her body more closer to his body.

He tore open his wet shirt and hugged her to his skin, once again breathing oxygen into her mouth.

And as this process took more and more time to get a response from her, he slowly too felt like as if he was too late in coming here and saving her.

Her painful face at that party reflected in his mind and it disturbed his entire state for even going away from her when she needed him the most at that moment.

The doctor had given up and so did others. Kian heard them whispering how that she was dead already and it was of no use.

“Mr Wilson, I presume that the patient is dead.”

He heard the doctor say those words out very clearly yet he could not let go of her numb body, immobile, her face pale white as if someone had sucked the blood off of her.

It was at that moment, he got a very clear view of her face for the first time and could not help but realize that she indeed had the face of an angel.

The kind of angel who he looked up to when he mourned for his dead mother, hoping the angels would bring her back to him.

Her pale face shining under the bright moon, as he ran his fingers through her red hair strands.

He could not just let go of her yet. So he dived in for the nth time to revive life back to her. She needed to be alive even if she had nothing to come back for, but for him at least so that this time, he could take better care of her.

“Wake up, Tinsley… common wake up.”

He said as he pressed her chest to make it mobile in the next few seconds and at the same time continued to rub her palms in his hands.

Everyone was a bit taken aback by how Kian was acting as if the woman in his arms meant something to him more than just some stranger.

“Common don’t disappoint me, baby!”

He mumbled only for her and him to hear, resting his head atop hers, their lips passed as he was tired and it was in that moment he felt her… her upper lip moving.
