CHAPTER 7
It is both a blessing

and a curse,
to feel everything,
so very deeply.

He was shouting the name "Maria".
Scar knew now he was her son.
She stood up to talk to him but he walked past her and towards the doctor who was coming their way and grabbed him by the collars of his shirt and shouted in his face.
" You, you are the bloody doctor. Why the fuck didn't you start her operation, you asshole. Go and do it now and make sure she's alright or I'll make sure you'll be definitely not alright. Got it?''
The doctor was scared and Just kept looking at his face.

" I said, YOU GOT IT OR NOT?"
He roared again.

" Yes.....yes.. sir.. I got it." The poor doctor stuttered.

Scarlett was scared too. She never saw someone like him in her life till now.
She shuddered at the thought of marrying such a person.

"She is alright. The operation was successful. But the impact on her arm by being thrown with a lot of force caused a fracture there. It might be healed in 3-4 months. Other than that, everything's fine. Also, she's asleep right now. Will be up in an hour or so . Then you can talk to her. I'll get going now." The doctor said and scurried away.

"Well, thanks doc." Scar mumbled.

She turned around to take a walk and do something to keep herself busy for an hour. Just as she turned around, Xander caught her wrist. A little spark went through both of their bodies. He immediately left her wrist.

"How do you know Maria?"Xander asked.
He didn't mean to sound rude but that's just the way he was.

" I met her , like a few weeks ago." Scarlett answered and...
