Saya paced the room; Haji had never been this late, in fact he was always on time. Saya ran to the other side of the room and grabbed the phone.
"Hello?" said David
" Hi David umm, I know it's late, but…" said Saya
"Honey come back to bed," said Julia
"I'm on the phone with Saya," said David
"Oh Hi Saya" screamed Julia
"Hi, David have you heard or seen from Haji, he's late and… and well I'm worried," sighed Saya
"Saya calm down …. I'm sure he's okay and he's probably with Kai," said David with ease
"Okay" mumbled Saya with uneasiness as she hung up the phone
Saya walked to the kitchen and began washing the dishes. Suddenly there was a sound coming from upstairs. Saya grabbed the nearest item (a butcher's knife) and ran up the stairs. She crept past the bathroom and towards the mysterious sound. She was only inches away from the door. Her heart began to race, with all the courage, Saya ran into the room with her eyes closed. She scanned her room; the balcony doors were open, and the white curtains were stained with blood. Though there was no one in site, until the shimmering, florescent, light of the full moon engulfed the silence of the room. Saya heard a bump like sound. It was coming from behind the bed! The veils of the bed began to sway with the subtle, movement of the wind. Saya tiptoed to the bed and then pounced on the invader. As she caught sight of the invader, her eyes began to tear.
"H.h.ha…Haji!!!!!" Saya screamed as she captivated the image of her boyfriend surrounded by a pool of blood.
"Saya" Haji said as he struggled to talk.
" Don't worry Haji, I'll get help" Saya said passionately as if trying to soothe Haji. As she did this she carefully tried to lift Haji unto the bed. Saya ripped Haji's shirt off and found the wound. A small blade was piercing his stomach. Saya ran to the phone and immediately called Julia as if out of instinct.
"Hello" Julia said as she yawned deeply and rubbing her eyes.
"Hello, Julia I need your help, hajji is wounded badly!!!!" Saya struggled to say as she held back her tears.
"I'm sorry Saya it's really late and this large belly won't be able to travel, you'll have to this yourself, but I'll guide you step by step" Julia said as she rubbed her belly.
"Okay, first you need some supplies, get sponges, towels, anything that can absorb all that blood," said Julia.
"Hold on, I'll go get the stuff" Saya said as she put the phone and ran to the bathroom.
"Okay, I'm back," said Saya.
"Is there anything penetrating the wound?" said Julia.
"Yes, a small blade" said Saya.
"Well with this you have to be careful, slowly I mean. Very slowly remove the blade, then place the sponge over the injury." Said Julia.
"Be back," Saya said as she carefully removed the blade and replaced its place with a sponge.
"Now what?" said Saya impatiently?
"Okay do you have bandages? That wound must close." Said Julia
Saya ran all over the house searching for bandages, yet she couldn't locate any. Then she saw it, the bandages which were wrapped around Haji's chiropteran hand. She removes the bandages from his palm and then binds it around the laceration.
"I bandaged the wound so now Haji's okay…right?" said Saya
"Yes, Saya your correct. He'll make it, but now its time for me to rest." Said Julia
"Okay thank you for your assistance Julia. Without you I don't know what I've would have done. Good night." Said Saya with gratitude.
"Good night Saya" said Julia
Then the line was cut. After Saya put the phone back into its place she returned to Haji. Saya watched Haji; he lay there in a peaceful slumber. His hair swayed with the wind. Saya lay there with him. She had begun to blush. Suddenly her next movement was not to be expected. She began to kiss Haji; unexpectedly he began to kiss back.
Haji's eyes began to open and to his preference Saya was the first thing he saw.
" The tenderness of your lips is one I will never forget" Haji said as he embraced Saya.
"I love you Haji" Saya said as she played with his hair for the rest of the night.
