Chapter 528 - What is it about this girl...?

The girl kept looking out of the car's window, while Kareem drove the car, secretly sneeking glances at the pretty girl. He did not know why but everytime he looked at her his heart melted a little more, as if she was the one he had been searching for all his life. 

Several thoughts were now crossing his mind, making him wonder about the current situation. What is happening to me? I have never felt like this! I thought I loved Rose and that feeling was strongest I could ever feel, then what is this? This girl has something, which is pulling me constantly towards her. As if, I have a strong bond with her from before. 

Kareem once again glanced at the girl. "So you are Cheryl's twin sister or something?" He asked breaking the ice between them as he entered the premises of the apartments, where Sheryl lived. 

"Haha! No! I am elder to her. Please turn towards the right. It is the first apartment, the white building." Sheryl finally spoke up uneasily. 

Kareem smiled and turned towards right, halting the car in the parking spot right outside the first apartment. "I think, I can manage on my own. You do not have to worry about me. It is already pretty late at night, so do not trouble yourself. You have already done enough by saving my life."

Kareem turned back his head to look at the girl sitting at the back seat , who had now picked up the cute girl in her one arm and was struggling to pick up the boy with her second arm. "NO! Let me just apply medications on your wounds, you can then leave." 

Kareem smiled and stepped out of the car his head dripping blood constantly. The blood stains on his arm, chest and back had increased a lot. He opened the back door of the car for the girl and offered his hand. "I can pick up the boy." 

"No! Your arm must be hurting already." She looked at his right arm, full of scratches and blood spot on top. 

"I am talking about this one." He held out his unstained left hand. 

"Alright." The girl smiled and nodded, getting off the car. Kareem then bent and with one swift move picked up the boy in his left arm, holding him comfortably, making sure he does not wake up. 

"Thank you." Sheryl smiled as they both walked towards the door of the apartment. She shuffled the keys from her bag and unlocked the door, switching on the lights of the living room. 

He looked around at the small yet beautifully decorated living room. He simply followed the girl, who turned towards a long corridor leading to a white colored door. She opened the door and switched on the lights, placing the girl comfortably on the wide wooden bed. Kareem simply mimiced the girl and placed the boy on the other side of the bed and they both covered them, with a comforter. 

Sheryl switched on a dim bulb in the corner of the room and signalled Kareem to come out of the room. He simply followed her instructions and came out of the room, following her, slowly closing the door behimd him. He could sense that the girl was trying to avoid looking at him directly and was feeling extremely shy and awkward. 

"If you are not comfortable, I can actually go back. You have already done enough for me, by saving me life." He looked at the girl's back, who was once again walking ahead of him inside the living room. 

She suddenly halted and turned and looked at Kareem directly in his eyes. Kareem also halted abrubtly and was startled as the the distance between them was now just a few inches. He looked in her eyes yet again, feeling overwhelmed. "These eyes. You remind me of somebody I already know of!" He spoke as if mesmerised in her deep brown eyes. 

"It must be Cheryl. We have same eyes and we both look pretty similar!" Sheryl smiled avoiding the awkwardness og situation. 

"No! No! Her eyes do not have this effect that yours have. You remind me of somebody else.  I do not know, who but you do. You have beautiful eyes by the way, just wanted to let you know. Most beautuful I have ever seen." Kareem spoke starring constantly in her big eyes.

"T... Th... Thank you." Sheryl blushed a bit and averted the eye contact again. "This is the guest room. You can sit here, while I go and fetch the medical kit." Sheryl opened another door, just next to the living room and switched on the lights. 

"Ok! Thank you." Kareem smiled as he entered the room. He looked around at the cozy room, which was made entirely of wood. Again, the room was small but was very beautifully decorated with paper lanterns, bulbs and well polished white colored wooden furniture, in victorian theme. The large window on the other side, over looked the balcony, showing the gigantic shining moon and several tress below it. The backside of the bed was covered with rich red colored velvet lining, giving it a royal yet elegant look. 

He sat on the corner of the bed, looking at the beautiful moon, outside, when the girl entered the room, holding a large blue colored box. She quietly sat besides Kareem not lookig at him yet again. She placed the box on the bed and opened it. She could feel Kareem's constant gaze just on her face and she could not help but blush. "Stop staring at me please." She murmered shyly. 

Kareem chuckled and pursed his lips, falling flat on the girl's cuteness. This was the first time, he had met a girl who was not crazy for him and was not screaming for his attention. 

She quickly took out a brown colored bottle full of liquid and poured it on a large piece of cotton and finally looked up at the boy's face. "Will you do it, or, should I do it for you?" 

Kareem smiled feeling her uneasiness. "I can do it. It is ok." He took the piece of cotton from her, brushing his finger with hers purposely and dabbed it on his wound, wincing a bit in pain.

Though he was strong enough to not even wince a bit at even much more deeper wounds, but he was trying to catch the girl's sympathy. 

"Ohh! Is it hurting too much?" Sheryl tilted her head cutely, looking at him with her big beautiful worrisome eyes. 

Kareem's heart skipped a bit once again. What was it about this girl, that was making him go crazzy instantly!!? As if he could jump rivers and mountains for her, if she commands even once. As if he has already done that for her before!
