Sara woke up next day morning around 10 am. Everything flashed in seconds about yesterday's events where Li Qiang had said 'sorry' to her. Something felt wrong. She took a glance at the sofa and found that Li Qiang was sleeping there. The aura of a Yama he had emitted previously was replaced with some angel. He looked like a small baby when he was sleeping there. His handsome face was at peace. Sara was pulled back to her senses when Li Qiang opened his eye.
'
did he even sleep? was he acting all this while' Sara thought. She dipped inside the pillow even more with little fear.
"You are awake..Sara??" his voice was very pleasant. Sara just nodded. Her head was the only thing He could see as her whole body was covered in the blanket. He then walked towards her and sat on the bed. Every step of his made Sara flinch. The moment he raised his hand to tough her head, she dodged a little. Li Qiang understood and retrieved his hand.
"Am sorry Sara. The whole thing is my mistake. I dint know that you were so scared of me. " he looked at her deep into her eyes "I regret doing this now. However, I have decided to send you back to your home" Sara's eyes flashed with astonishment. She did not believe what she had heard.
"Really??"
Li Qiang smiled with sigh "yes. But you see we are on Island now... The currents are bad little further in the sea.. Also its bad to fly over because of this conditions. Will you hold on for some days to make sure that we can go back safely??"
Li Qiang's questions made Sara become doubtful. Her eyes were interrogating his words.
"You can talk to your dad mean while.." he sighed and asked her "ok??"
Sara was still unsure but she stuck her hand out of the blanket asking for the phone. Li Qiang just smiled and gave his phone to her. She immediately pressed the phone number of her home. It was ringing for a while and suddenly her mother picked up the phone "hello???mommy.. mommy" Sara started to cry..
"oh my god... Sara my dear... where are you??? that person Li Qiang said he will get you back... Why aren't you here yet??? baby come back to mommy.. Mommy misses you.." the women sodded on the other end.
Sara looked at Li qiang thought 'did this guy already spoke to my parents about sending me back??'
'is he telling the truth?'
'is he really regretting his actions??'
She came back to her sense and spoke " mommy.. He said the weather conditions is bad here. He said we can fly back once its good to travel"
"speak to your dad sweety.. here..."
"hello dad???"
"my prnicess.... Am sorry i couldn't protect you.. I tried to send my people to get you but the condition where you are is really bad to cross... Baby can you wait for your dad to get you???"
Sara was little more upset "Am scared Dady... Please come soon..."
"don't worry my princess. I have already spoke to Li Qiang's father and he has assured me your safety"
Sara was rest assured "ok dady.. I love you..."
Before her dad could say anything there was a disturbance in the line and it got cut... Sara looked at Li Qiang. Li Qiang knew what had happened and told "in these conditions, this island will have poor network. It takes time to get the network back running. when it does you can talk to your dad.. alright?"
Sara nodded and leaned on the head rest. Her gaze distanced and she asked "Why are you sorry after kidnapping me?"
Li Qiang looked at her. He knew she would ask this question. He was well prepared " I take worst decisions when am angry. But once the anger is reduced I see through things." he turned around started to pour water into a cup "lets just say that am not who I am when am angry... its my weakness.. Something that am unable to control even after so many years "when he turned, his eyes were little sad as though he had just confessed a terminal medical condition...
Sara fell deep into thoughts about the times she met him and everything to add 1+1 to tally his words with what she had seen.
"I think I can see that..." she now looked at Li Qiang and sighed.
