C5 Chapter-5
Sara's POV:
"What are you thinking about?"
I heard a familiar voice in my ears. I shocked a little as i was having a flash back. Carrie was sitting right beside me.
"Ahhh... Nothing. Why did you come? I shouldn't have called you."
I told her wiping off my tears. In her black coat and black pant, she looked more cute. She pated my shoulder.
" I have to be here. I know that its only one day friendship but thank God you called me. You are my friend now. How can i let you face these difficulties alone? Now tell me everything. Don't skip anything."
Saying that, she opened her bag and took out some sprays and bandages and medicine.

Daniel's POV:
" Where the hell are you, Mark?"
I sent a voice message to Mark early in the morning. I couldn't find him since i entered the school. Moreover, he didn't attend my calls. I texted him but he didn't reply. He was never like this before. I, soon, was fed up and started walking towards the school's cafe. As i looked up, i saw a familiar face coming towards me, wearing black coat with black pant.
" Hi Carrie! What's up? Where the hell is your sarcastic brother?"
I questioned her as soon as she came close. She was holding some stuffs, i guess breakfast, in her hand.
" Can you see him with me?"
She asked me in a serious way. She was a jolly girl. I never thought she could be this serious. Ever since i entered this school, i never talked to any girl except Carrie and the corridor girl. Carrie was the sister of my best friend. It feels good to tease her. Secondly, i regarded her as my own sister.
" Oh... Looks like someone is in rage. Tell me what happened. I'll take revenge."
I placed my hand on her head but she immediately stepped backwards, making my hand fall in air.
" It's you. Go ahead. Beat yourself up."
This time, it seemed she was demanding something. What the hell is going on? Brother don't receive my phone and sister is up to something. What am i doing between this family? Why is she so aggressive??? I could see that if i wasn't her brother's friend, she would have beaten me up.
" Hey! Is everything ok?"
I murmured.
" Didn't i tell you, it's because of you."
She was acting so naive. I wouldn't dare to ask the reason again. So, i answered her question.
" Then I-I will try my best to get everything back to it's place."
" And what if you are not able to make it? What will you do then?"
She yelled this time. I was shocked at her behavior.
" Hey! Carrie... Tell me. What happened? You're making me worried. Please tell me in detail."
I pleaded with her? Did i do something wrong? Did i hurt someone? These thoughts, at once, appeared in my mind.
" Carrie ... What happened?"
I questioned her seriously this time.
" Okay. Fine. I'll tell you. Because of you someone got hurt. Badly hurt. Or should i say injured. Ahhh... It's complicated. I know it's not your fault. But still this happened because of you."
I was desperately waiting for her answer and she was making this talk longer and longer.
" Shh.. Stop it. Tell me what exactly happened?"
She stared for a moment and then started.
" An innocent girl got beaten up because of your ignorance."
" Hey... Carrie. Wait. Where do you think you are going? Tell me properly. My ignorance? What did i do? What Happened? Please tell me."
I tried to stop her by grabbing her hand. But she instantly took a few steps backward.
" And what do you think you are doing? Want me to end up like my friend?"
She questioned furiously. It was an unexpected view for me. She was a completely changed girl, completely different from the girl i knew.
" Hey! Don't be like this. Be a good sister and tell me what happened to your friend."
I requested this time, showing my concerns. She changed her attitude a bit and started talking.
" Remember the girl you collided with? The one in front of your business communication class?"
" Ahhh.... Yes, i do remember her. She was a bit different from others. What happened to her?"
I, obviously, did remember that girl. It wasn't a usual thing.
" Eva again."
Carrie gave me a hint. And that hint literally made me crazy.
" What? Eva? She again bullied someone because of me. But why? We just collided. It was an accident."
At this Carrie gave me a gaze and questioned:
" And right after that accident, you sat with that girl, and even talked to her, knowing the fact how everyone in the school regards you? Wow. Great Mr. Jones."
She clapped and gave me a furious gaze.
" But i really didn't mean... Ahhh... No, how could that... I'm fed up. I'm so done. Forget about it. How is she? Your friend? Is she alright?"
I was so disappointed at what Eva caused this time. It wasn't the first time. She was trying to seduce me. But i always refused her. Carrie replied.
" She alive."
She replied briefly.
" What do you mean alive? Please tell me if she got injured or something?"
I again questioned her. What if she got badly injured? Will i take her responsibility? I guess i will. She was injured because of me.
" Ahhh... Okay. Fine. She is badly injured. But the point is that she is a strong girl. She will bear everything on her own and won't even argue. She won't blame anyone. But there is something weird about her. She seems strong but from deep inside, she is weak. I can feel that. Last night, when i applied medicine to her injuries, i saw some old wounds on her back and her arms. I guessed she was in great pain because those old wounds weren't in good shape. It was a terrible sight. I did ask her what happened, but she didn't tell me. And now, she is unconscious. I called the doctor and he suggested me some tablets. Mark, i asked him to bring them to me. Just now, you said you will try to get everything back at it's place. Tell me, how are you going to do that?"
She gazed at me while i have nothing to say.
" See... You don't have guts to protect someone. Don't you?"
She sighed and i was astonished. I couldn't dare to ask any more question. And she left me there, standing on the way to cafe, speechless. She is not fine, is she?
