Chapter 10:

The confession

Love's conundrum

In Salsabeel's house, things were getting worse. Mukhtar was holding a knife and crying in the back garden after trying to slit his neck and leave life, but the older sister dissuaded him with her tenderness and endless love. She endured an electric blow exceeding 500 jols, which is stronger than the previous one. Hams and the little ones were looking with fear at Salsabeel, whose skin began to redden and her hair was falling out from the force of the electric wave. I couldn't accept it... I couldn't accept that the girl I love in this world left in this way... I threw myself thoughtlessly towards them, hugging Salsabeel from her back. Ah..! What is the power of this electric field...! I felt the sound of my bones and felt my muscles loosen and shrink and I started to feel as if my head was going to explode.

Salsabeel – Crying Blood-... What are you doing?! Adnan...?! g... Get away from me... ".

Dr. Adnan "L... I.. I told you... That I ... promised that... I will h...help you... ".

Salsabeel "A... I don't... Can't.... Bear... Lose.... ".

Hamas – in shock – "Please Salsabeel do not leave us – in tears – I can't imagine life without you... ".

Labiba – in tears – "H... Are you going to leave us with this... As fast as thunder?! For what?!... We can't go on with our lives without you....... Neither foods, drinks , nor stuff that will make us happy. We ask you to.... Fight... Please... Resist... ".

Salsabeel –pushes Doctor Adnan away from her – "Go... Go to them... I can't lose anyone anymore – crying – I've had enough of losing Nadim, Yathrib and Yahya in a hill... That desperate cursed night... I can't take it.... anymore.. ".

The little ones started crying hard after they heard this talk. As if that tape of life had come back to their minds again... Days of oppression, weakness and humiliation. A group of people and robots gathered looking in amazement as I stayed still in my place, looking at the light emanating from the black jewel Salsabeel after her groans rose and blood bled from her mouth. It was clear that her weak body had grown stronger and her ears had become slightly bigger, but more importantly, all the electrical energy was emitted to her. It's finally the peak phase...!. In my view, her ability is not like Maya's ability that gives her physical strength, but it allowed her to reduce the powers of Mukhtar that came under her control. Mukhtar fell unconscious after losing his electrical power even his hair changed color to heavenly. Salsabeel looked at her palms, which were full of wounds and burns, but they also beat with enough electrical energy for entire cities. She was panting quickly and despite her injury, she was happy that she had saved the chosen one from his curse. The children's eyes shimmered with joy and the crying changed to joy. I went with my torn suit, my frayed hair like hedgehog thorns, and my shattered glasses towards Salsabeel.

The black-haired girl collapsed to the ground, to the awe of the audience as well as the kids.

Dr. Adnan "T... Hold on , Salsabeel... I'm here for you... ".

Before touching the beauty, she replied in a strikingly tone:

"Get away from me... You were lucky to survive last time... But this time you will inevitably die. ".

Dr. Adnan – supports Salsabeel's back – "It doesn't matter... It doesn't matter as long as I'm on your side... ".

Salsabeel – looking at her falling hair and then feeling the doctor's face – "Don't worry... You'll be doing better... ".

When Salsabeel touched me, I felt my heart settle and the excess electricity in my body had been transferred to her.

Dr. Adnan "I have an important thing to tell you... ".

Salsabeel – closing her eyes exhausted – "Can't you postpone it...?! ".

Doctor Adnan "it cannot afford to postpone..!".

I was silent for a while, hesitant, and my face reddened, then I summoned my courage in front of the public :

"I love you... I have been in love with you since the first meeting between us ... Then when I met you closely, I realized that you were the girl and the lady I always wanted to be close to. I want to be your partner, your gentleman and your companion in the journey of life until death before I became your doctor... – I take a box out of his pocket – Will you agree to be my partner and the prisoner of my heart?! "

Hamas – hitting his head with his palm – "This is not the time for it, doctor...! ".

Thoraiya and Labiba – together – "What a romantic guy... ! ".

Salsabeel – her face reddens – "eh... This is not the time for this talk...! ".

Doctor Adnan "I am waiting for your opinion immediately...! I will be with you whatever your decision... ".

Salsabeel – with two rosy cheeks – "I agree...! ".

I took off the gold ring and put it on her right palm. Happiness songs were heard from those who were present, even robots were dancing cheerfully, and the children inside were delighted. I looked joyfully at my mistress as she closed her eyes with a cherry smile.

Mukhtar regained consciousness two hours later and how ironically! He remembers nothing about the past days and even his negative thoughts about suicide and death seem to have gone with his powers.I started Salsabeel's treatment at Salvator with Elixir of Life incubator. It tooks a day and a night to regain her health while I kept taking care of the little ones in her absence. In the evening, the day she recovered. I was preparing to receive her with robots that had broken down since that incident and I developed them again. Salsabeel saw the light again and opened her charming eyes. The robots did one last reading of the vital signs as I looked forward to pulling her out of the incubator and hugging her. After I made sure everything was fine, I pressed the door button and the liquid pushed her towards me and I picked her up after she threw her body on my chest.

Salsabeel "Hello again, doctor...!".

Doctor Adnan – hugging her tightly – "How much I missed you. Thank God for your safety...".

She hugged me back , but she realized that she was completely naked and nothing covered her, so she hit me hard and then rushed towards me, trying to take cover, and maybe to get my coat to cover her up.

Salsabeel – in a high tone of shame – "What is wrong with you, perverted doctor...?! Haven't you just seen the bodies of the ladies and young women you treat?! ".

Her push was so strong that we both fell on my mattress directly opposite the incubator – this is mentioned in the original story – and she became shy above me and lowered her gaze. She was overwhelmed by life and lost hope of covering her body without me looking at her.

"I have never and will never look at any girl like this. You are mine and you are the only one who fills my eyes... – Pull out a mattress and cover her back with it – I wish this can be continue but there is no room for this... ".

The black-haired face was red like rubies and she was silent for a while as she lay on my chest.

" And... Wah... You are brilliant in clothing... Apologies, I disabled you."

She quickly got up hiding under the white sheet while I turned my gaze away from her in shyness.I got out of bed and patted her head:

"I'm waiting for you... Behind you is a bathroom use it and I have bought you a dress that will increase your beauty ... ".

The black cat was ashamed as she stuttered and her eyes were full of tears.

"It's a day of joy... No need to cry... ".She smiled softly:

"Do you have scissors?!"

"You'll find different sizes on the inner shelf. I'll wait for you. ".

The golden boy Talal, Maya, Sarah and the rest of the children were waiting for us in the ground yard where the Mariscalo's office was located, and they prepared candy, cakes and drinks and decorated the place where the engagement will officially take place here. I went out holding the palm of my princess in a chestnut dress with a brocade in the sleeves and bottom. The little childrens rushed towards her, congratulating her and giving her sweets, and they were glad that she was alive and well. The young woman held back tears and smiled as she looked at me receiving congratulations from my comrades in Salvator who soon gave Salsabeel's well-wishs. We have agreed that the wedding will be in three months, and until that time we will be like any fiancé who communicates remotely only or by chance at parties.

I opened my private clinic after I bought a small house on one of the township of the city. Township's life was quieter and this helped me focus more on my researchs and development of my inventions.

My father had instructed me not to follow my emotions... But what is right is to balance mind and heart, logic and emotion, wisdom and attraction. Love is innate in our nature as human beings that we cannot give up and we cannot tie the cords of our hearts. But certainly when you fail once in love, you have to be more vigilant in falling into it again. The nets of love cannot be escaped and there are those who have lost their lives because of extreme types of love. As long as there is give and take between the two partners in addition to understanding and affection. All other differences become without columns or walls. In my name as an experienced surgeon, nothing is more complicated than a heart muscle. It even generates her own electrical energy, rebelling against reason! So how can its decisions be the logic itself...?!.

*"To you,

my first beloved,

my last and sociable miracle in difficult days,

Our souls met after their dispersion and fate smiled.

You who stole sadness from my life

rained my heart with wealthy rains

Oh my prisoner

My princess

The lady of beauty

The Susan of generous

That's gives endless love

Generous without complaint
