117 Help!

The woman got up clutching the sheets to hide her chest.

She raised her head. The silk-like hair which covered her face fell apart. The sight before them made them tremble.

A clear sense of sympathy manifested on their face.

Their eyes were on her face. It was all blue and green, tinged with red blood flowing from her lips which lay swollen and bleeding.

Her mouth was bleeding nonstop.Her eyes puffed, there were marks all over her body.

She looked at the man, and with a pleading look, she desperately mumbled, "Save.... me..."

With that, she fainted.

Seeing the powerless woman flopped on the bed, everyone flinched.

A bloody smell lingered in the air.

An officer went forward to check her. He checked her pulse.

"Sir, she is bleeding. I think she bit her tongue. We need to send her to the hospital." he stated.

"No, she is acting. " a shrill came from Ak Jain as he shot towards the woman.

"Bitch. Get up!" He was dragged back again.

They called an ambulance, and soon Clara was taken to the hospital.

In the hospital as soon as the ward got empty, she opened her eyes. She looked around and sighed as she found no one.

Clara searched for a phone, however, didn't find one in the ward. She rubbed the space between her eyes which was aching slightly.

'I can't contact dad. I need to find a solution myself.'

Yes, she was awake all the while under the sheets. A trace of confusion flashed her eyes when she thought about the situation.

She acted to faint for many hours. During this time the officers returned.

While she was still faking, they talked about Ak Jain.

------------------

"Sir, we got the report. Ak's blood and urine showed traces of Cocaine. And according to doctors he must have consumed it every day this week."

"What about her?"

"She is clean. But.."

"But what?"

"But she was bleeding internally. A lot! She also has bruises and marks on her body everywhere."

"Also, she bit her tongue."

"Was she trying to commit suicide?"

------------------------

When she wasn't fully aware of the situation. Hence to gain time and also disinvolve from the case, Clara pretended to faint.

To show them her pitiful sight and gain sympathy, she bit her tongue till it bled under the sheets.

Now she came to understand the circumstances. Someone tried to frame them with drugs.

And the drugs were precisely the ones she gave Ak as aphrodisiacs.

'So all this while I was feeding Ak Jain Cocaine' The more she thought, the more she grew puzzled.

'The drugs were the ones my dad gave me!'

'What should I do? How do I get out of the situation?'

While she was pondering over the solution, the door clicked, and the officers entered.

She closed her eyes and sobbed in a muffled voice.

"Save me.... save me... Help" her voice was soft and trembling.

"No..No...I" Her eyelashes shook in terror. She seemed as if experiencing the worst pain in her sleep.
