Sheryl frowned in confusion hearing his words. "Let me take you to a hospital. There might be an internal injury as well." Sheryl looked at the man's head.
"No! I... I am ...fine... Thank you for... for saving my life." The man spoke in a muffed voice as his face was directly on top of her thighs. He had no strength to even move away his face.
"Ok then, tell me your address, I will call a cab and send you to your home at least. Your family can take care of you atleast." Sheryl spoke in a worried tone.
The man did not reply but rather picked up his head and tilted it a bit, looking back at his badly smashed and titled car. "How did the car skid so badly? I .. I was so slow! It is impossible.. untill... ..somebody....wanted it... and then the gas release!" He suddenly frowned and his hand went straight on his forehead, which had a deep cut on it.
Sheryl looked at the man's hand and noticed blood drops on it, falling downwards. She then suddenly noticed blood stains on his tee-shirt near his chest too. "You are bleeding. I am calling the ambulance right now." Sheryl was about to stand up but the man immediately held her wrist and pushed her closer to him, finally revealing his face.
"Do not call ambulance. I am fine!" The man whispered and looked at the girl, straight in her eyes and was for a few seconds forgot all his injuries, looking at her beautiful face.
She had big brown eyes with extremely natural long eye- lashes. Her hair were tied in a simple ponytail, her flicks hanging loose on her face. Her face had a natural glow, complementing her naturally pink lips and sharp nose. She did not put much effort in enhancing her looks and the man was instantly attracted to her due to this trait. She did not need to put any efforts, she was so naturally beautiful!
Sheryl gaped at the man in surprise. "Kareem??? It is you? Oh my God!!" She was now even more worried, since the man turned out to be a known to her, though she knew, Kareem would not know that she is Cheryl's sister.
"Yes!! One and only. That is why do not call an ambulance, it will be headline in tomorrow's newspaper and telivision. I do not want to disturb my family too. It is just a minor injury. But thank you for saving me!" Kareem smiled looking at the pretty girl, noticing her slightly parted lips.
"But... How will you be treated?" Sheryl looked at the blood stained tee shirt.
"I can do it myself. I just need a medical kit." He spoke in an assuring tone. "Wait!!!!" Kareem suddenly grew serious and turned and looked at his car, which had started to release golden fire flames and gas. "Oh! Shit!! Run!!!" He shouted.
He instantly got up from Sheryl's lap but Sheryl frowned in confusion, as she was still looking at his wounds. Kareem immediately held the girl from her waist, picking her up in his arms swiftly, taking Sheryl by surprise. He ran away from the car hurriedly. "The car might burst!!!"
"What!!?? My car...!!! My kids are in the car!!" Sheryl screamed in fear.
"You have kids? Thats even a worse thing to know!!! Damn!! Give me the car keys!!" He ran rapidly carying the lady in his arms, while Sheryl handed over the keys to him, towards a red colored honda car.
He quickly opened the door making Sheryl sit with the two kids. He himself sat on the driver's seat and switched on the ignition and accelerated the car to maximum. He looked at his car, covered in flames from the rear view mirror and drove as fast as it was possible. "Close the ears of the kids. It is going to blast!" He shouted looking at the two kids.
Sheryl quickly snuggled the kids with her, trying to close their atleast one ear each. "Luckily they are sleeping." She turned back and gazed at the fire covered car in fear. "Oh my God!!!"
Kareem took a sharp turn and drove away from the area and then suddenly a loud errupting voice echoed in the air.
"BAAAAAMMMM!!!!!!" Came the voice and Sheryl snuggled the kids closer to her and a tear dropped down from her eye out of fear. They were by now pretty far from the accidental spot, but still the echo of the voice made a shiver run down from Sheryl's spine and more tears dropped down fr9m her eyes. The kids were in a deep sleep, so they were uneffected by the noise of the blast.
Kareem looked at the crying girl and slowed down a bit. "It is all ok now. Tell me your address, I shall take you there."
"But, what about you? And your injury. I see several blood spots Kareem even on your arm now and on your back too. I am glad you came out alive, as the car was completely crushed! You were lucky!" Sheryl shuddered at the thought of once again thinking what could have happened had she not arrived here.
"I will take a cab and do a self application of medicine on the wounds. I will be fine trust me." Kareem smiled looking at the worried girl. Somehow he just could not take his eyes off her from the rear mirror. She was indeed extremely beautiful and also the way she saved him, showed what a good- hearted girl she is!
"Its the Ivy towers, Lane 32, but you are coming with me. I will help you do the first- aid. Come to my house." Sheryl blushed a bit, but she was genuinly concerned about the boy. She had no other purpose in her mind, but this is how the girl was. She had always been a caring and sensitive person, specially towards the Wilson and Lodge family. If she ever got a chance to help them in any way, she will never back out, after all they owe her a lot! The amount which no amount of words could describe!
Kareem starred at the girl directly in her eyes from the mirror and could not help but smirk at her. "Will ypur husband like it?" He did say anything further to the girl but rather kept looking at her blushing face. She looked extremely innocent and shy, which made her look all the more beautiful.
Sheryl as if knowing what the boy was thinking spoke in hesitation. "I am Cheryl's sister, Sheryl. So that is why I am inviting you over as you both are coleagues. Do not take me in a wrong way, i am not that kind of girl. And these are my friend's kids not mine. I am single." Sheryl averted her gaze and looked out of the window. They were just two minutes away from her house now.
"Oh! You are Cheryl's sister?" Kareem looked at the girl in surprise, also feeling happy knowing that she was single. "Well then, let us go to your place. I might need your help for the first aid!" Kareem smirked again, but the girl did not notice as she was constantly looking out of the window and blushing.
