Chapter 13 - Her Prayer, His Life

Sarah's knees and elbows were bleeding heavily, and the blood was dripping onto the floor of the church. The priest noticed it and quickly rushed toward her.

Sarah was so deeply lost in prayer that she did not realize anything. She could not feel the pain or even notice that she was bleeding.

The priest came closer and gently placed his hand on her head.

"My child, open your eyes," he said softly.

Sarah slowly opened her eyes. The priest was standing in front of her.

Sarah looked at him respectfully and folded her hands. Tears were flowing from her eyes.

The priest looked at her face carefully and understood everything without a single word. He realized that she was going through a very deep emotional pain.

"My child," the priest said gently, "whatever wish you are praying for will surely be fulfilled because your heart is as pure as glass."

Then, noticing her injuries, he carefully looked at her wounds and said, "You are truly very strong. Look at yourself, so much blood is coming out, yet you are praying with full faith and devotion."

Instead of "Beta," he used the word "My child."

Sarah looked down and saw her elbows and knees. Blood was still flowing heavily, and the floor of the church was completely stained with blood.

With great innocence, Sarah folded her hands again in front of the priest and said, "I am so sorry, Father. Because of me, the entire church has become dirty. I am really very sorry."

The priest smiled and said, "You are truly very innocent. Even now, you are not thinking about your pain. You are only worried about the church becoming dirty."

Without wasting any time, the priest called for a first aid box. With humanity and kindness, he applied medicine to Sarah's wounds.

After treating her, the priest left from there.

Sarah once again folded her hands in front of God and continued praying for Kevin with all her heart.

On the other side, in the hospital, Dr. Kevin's condition was very critical. He was in the ICU, and his heartbeats were becoming very slow. He had lost a lot of blood, and because of this, he urgently needed blood to survive.

A nurse came out and informed Kevin's family. She said, "Dr. Kevin needs blood immediately. If we can arrange it in time, he can still be saved. Otherwise, we cannot say anything."

The blood group was A negative, which is a rare type.

The family checked everyone in their family, but no one had the same blood group. They also checked hospital staff, but still no match was found.

There was no hope left.

At that moment, Emma suddenly remembered something. She realized that there was one person who could save Dr. Kevin.

Hearing this, Kevin's family became very happy and asked Emma, "Please tell us who that person is. We will bring that person here. We can give any amount of money, but please save our son."

Emma stayed silent for a few seconds. Then she asked, "Do you really want to know who that person is?"

Kevin's mother immediately said, "Yes, please tell us."

Emma said, "That person is Sarah. She has the same blood group, A negative."

After hearing this, Kevin's mother's face changed immediately. She said with attitude and anger, "That girl is unlucky. We do not need her help."

At that moment, a nurse who was standing nearby heard her words and said, "Ma'am, we do not have much time. If someone is available to help right now, please do not refuse."

Kevin's sister and father then said, "We cannot take any risk. We must call Sarah here immediately."

They told Emma to call Sarah.

Emma informed Sarah that Dr. Kevin urgently needed blood.

Hearing this, Sarah immediately ran toward the hospital.

She reached there and said, "I will do anything for Dr. Kevin. I am ready to donate blood."

She told the nurse, "Please take my blood. Whatever amount is needed, you can take it from me."

The nurse took Sarah into a room. She checked her blood. Everything was fine, and she was eligible to donate blood for Dr. Kevin.

Then the nurse inserted a needle into Sarah's vein and connected a tube to it. Through that tube, Sarah's blood started collecting into a blood bag.

While the blood donation process was still going on, the nurse suddenly noticed something on Sarah's neck.

The nurse looked closely and said,

"Oh, what is this mark on your neck?"

Sarah suddenly became shocked and nervous.

She quickly touched her neck with her hand.

At that moment, a memory came into her mind.

She remembered what had happened last night with Dr. Kevin and how that mark was left on her neck.

She became very nervous and scared, thinking that this secret should not come out in front of anyone.

The nurse noticed Sarah's reaction and understood that she was feeling uncomfortable.

So the nurse softly said,

"Oh, it's okay. I was just asking. Don't worry."

But Sarah was still nervous inside.

Her heart was beating fast, and she was trying hard to stay calm so that no one would understand her feelings or her secret.

Sarah got scared and quickly used her hair to cover the love bite so that it could not be seen. She said, "Right now is not the time to talk about this. We need to inform about Dr. Kevin."

The nurse was starting to understand something, because she had already seen lipstick marks on Dr. Kevin's shirt and body. Then the nurse also noticed Sarah's lipstick shade. After the blood connection was done, the nurse lifted Dr. Kevin's shirt and compared the lipstick mark with Sarah's lipstick shade. She understood that maybe something had happened between them last night.

After the blood donation was completed, Sarah came outside and gave the receipt to Kevin's mother. Kevin's mother looked into her eyes with tears in her eyes and then took out a bundle of money from her bag. Very insultingly, she put the money near Sarah's mouth and said, "Now your work is done, so leave from here."

But Sarah did not feel bad about anything. Still, she respected Kevin's mother. She picked up the money very respectfully and placed it back in Kevin's mother's hand. She said, "What Dr. Kevin has done for me cannot be measured in money. And today I was able to help him, that makes me happy. So please consider this blood donation as its price. I do not need this money at all."

She said, "If you want, I can even stay away from Dr. Kevin's life forever. For his happiness and well-being, I will stay away from him. I will always remember him in my prayers."

And after saying this, with tears in her eyes, Sarah left from there.
