Chapter 4 Accident

Just when everyone thought that she was going to be run over by the speeding car, someone swooped her up in the last moment and landing her safely at the other side of the road, the people on the pavement had their breath stuck but when they saw her on the other side a wave of relief spread through the people saw her unharmed.

"Are you alright? " A deep voice spoke to Hazel from the side, it was almost a whisper but Hazel heard it, But she was so shocked that she dared not to look up and she gazed at the dusty pavement with empty eyes, her body trembled and her breath too wasn't stable.

The football player who had accidentally pushed her, came running towards her from the other side of the road and kneeled beside her with a worried look.

"I am so sorry, I didn't mean to do that." He lightly touched her shoulder on which she responded suddenly.

"Haah! (Deep breath)" a forced breath escaped her lips.

"Here have some water It will help, "

Finally Hazel showed a sign of life and looked at the water bottle. she slowly lifted her hand and grasped her fingers around it.

"Th..thank you" The guy who had saved her was still holding onto her arm, The scene that she witnessed a few moments ago had so many similarities with a past incident, that she felt that, she knew the man who saved her, She lifted her head and stretched her lips into a smile, before speaking a few words of greeting. "Luke! You came bac, " Her words came to a halt and her tongue didn't utter a single word, her eyes fell on the face of the guy beside her, His black seductive eyes which were protected by long eyelashes. His face was perfectly sculptured with a sharp jaw line, his eye brows were lightly knitted as if he was uncomfortable for some reason. But even though with such a handsome guy beside her, Hazel's eyes didn't have admiration in them. But instead there was horror. Hazel's grip tightened over the water bottle and her heartbeat went wild. She hatched away her arm from the man's grasp and her smile from before wilted. Hazel shrugged herself away and lightly bumped into the football player. He too noticed her odd behaviour so he spoke to her. "Let me take you to the hospital, " "I, I have to go" Hazel abruptly got up and ran away without looking back. The crowd around them gazed at the scared girl running off as if her life depended on it. "Elijah? What are you doing here? Did you get into an accident?" A fair girl with wavy brown hair and a Nobel aura walked through the crowd with a puzzled expression. "No, I didn't, " Elijah answered by not putting much emotions into it. "That's a relief, I got scared because of the sudden commotion, " She spoke while giving out a beautiful smile. "Are you here to meet the dean?" "Hmm, " He replied with a nod still distracted by the fearful girl from a while ago. "Aurora! hurry up we are gonna be late for the class, " another voice came from behind her that caused her to look away from Elijah. "I will be right there, " Aurora replied "I think you should be going, " Elijah looked at her friend who was calling her, "Okay, but be sure to go to the doctor, " Aurora threw the last words at him in a hurry and reluctantly followed her friend out of the crowd. Once she was gone, Elijah glanced at the direction where Hazel had ran off to, ...................... Sniff, sniff, 'It was him, I saw him again, everything is gonna repeat itself. Everything!' Hazel limply ran as she cleared the tears streaming down her eyes, her eyes showed a pure sense of horror. She was scared. Her legs gave up and she fell on the ground sobbing, the people around her stared at her with odd looks but she was not aware of the fact, the only thing she could feel was her pounding heart and her scared self.
