Novel Full 281 281. Are you alright, my little lamb?
Once the sound of the bike stopping from speed of 240 mph to zero had died down, the back wheel was back to ground with only silence surrounding both the figures.
It was eerily silent and Kizy, who was thunderstruck after watching that person, couldn’t move an inch.
‘No no. This is not real. Something’s wrong. This can’t be happening.’ She tried telling herself while shaking her intuitions away.
Finally the person decided to break this silence. He moved forward while taking slow steps, his shoes creating the only noise while Kizy still kept looking at him, wide eyed.
It took him almost a minute to reach her before he lifted his hand, only to remove her helmet. As soon as the helmet was gone, a tear rolled down her face, unable to believe what was happening with her.
“Are you alright, my little lamb?” Markus asked in a gentle voice, the same question he had asked months ago when he had saved Kizy from Aaron.
Kizy was unable to answer him as more tears started flowing and finally Kizy burst out crying, loud, especially loud for the silence surrounding them..
“Sorry. I am sorry for giving you a hard time. Sorry for leaving you behind alone. Sorry for hiding the truth. Sorry for not keeping my promise. And, sorry for arriving late.” Markus said in a low voice, full of guilt.
All this time Kizy just looked at Markus through her teary eyes, his face, which was now covered in stubble while his skin looked tanned. But he felt different, as if this one single month had made him go through hell, transforming him in different ways.
Markus lifted his hand to hold Kizy’s face, wanting to feel every inch of skin he had been missing, to shower her with kisses all over, to feel her warmth and to do things that even he didn’t know.
But the moment he held her face, Kizy closed her eyes, and Markus felt all her weight on his hand.
It took him a moment to realize that Kizy had fainted after crying terribly for mere seconds. And once he understood what had happened, he could no longer keep his cool.
“Kizy! KIZYY!! wake up little lamb!” He tried to call her in a panicked voice, but to no avail.
He desperately searched her body for a phone, but Kizy, who had been wanting to run away from all this mess, was definitely not going to make a mistake by carrying a phone with her. And his own phone had died down moments ago, making all this situation even more troublesome.
‘F@#k! I can not keep waiting like this.’ Markus thought to himself.
With that he picked Kizy up after a lot of difficulty, finally managing to carry her princess style. With that he sat on the bike himself while placing Kizy on the fuel tank.
‘Dear wifey, couldn’t you drive a simpler bike? Must you give me an inferiority complex this way?’ Markus thought, not knowing how they would be reaching home.
He had learnt to drive a bike for emergency cases only, which meant he was taught to ride simpler bikes, not some Kawasaki Ninja H2R!
Plus having Kizy sit on the fuel tank was making it more difficult for him than he had imagined.
‘God please save us! Kizy we are going to the hospital, you will be fine soon.’ And with this thought, Markus finally started the bike, slowly taking a U-turn while grunting, a big task in itself.
‘Why are we on the southern mountain range!!’ Markus thought as the first turn approached while his bike went off.
He had been trying to start the bike again when he felt that a vehicle was approaching them.
He was instantly on high alert, while slowly moving the bike behind. He picked Kizy up and made her sit with her back supported by mountain rocks in such a way that she was hidden behind the bike.
Meanwhile Markus had already taken his gun out, ready to kill anyone if the situation arose.
He could hear that the vehicle was mere metres away from them and would reach there any second.
And true to his expectations, he saw the lights coming, while he stood beside the bike on one side of the road, waiting for the vehicle.
As soon as the car had taken a turn, it was met with the scene of a man standing beside a bike, and the car took a screeching halt.
“Boss!!” Joel was the first person to climb out of the car and run towards Markus, making Markus relax.
But the next moment, Joel’s body collided into Markus’s, something that no one had anticipated.
“Boss!! Boss you are finally back!! You won’t understand how much I have missed you. Please don’t ever leave me behind again. No matter where you go, I will follow you like a shadow.” Joel said in one single breath, tears brimming his eyes as his voice was cracking a little.
‘Why do I feel that these should have been Kizy’s lines instead of his? I was expecting her to react like that, not Joel.’ Markus thought while being frozen in his place, not knowing whether he should laugh or cry at his secretary’s antiques.
“Kizy!!” Suddenly Nicole exclaimed from behind.
[0)ᴠʟ Immediately, Joel let go of Markus while looking at him wide eyed.
“How can I forget!! Boss, Young madam has gone missing. We can not waste anymore-” Joel was still speaking when Markus simply pointed towards Kizy’s direction, where Nicole and Rose were already sitting beside her, while Markus himself went to her side.
“Are you alright brother? And where did you meet her?” Nicole asked while looking at Markus, noticing the changes.
“What happened to her? How did you find and meet her?” It was grandpa who cleared his voice and talked after composing himself, making Markus turn his head towards him.
