nKizy stopped near the referee and played the video where opponent captain had injured Markus on her phone. The video was completely clear and recorded from an angle where it could be seen that he had kicked Markus in abdomen.

n

"Is it still not a foul now?

" Kizy asked the referee.

n

"But he isn't injured, he is just faking it.

" The captain shouted.

nKizy simply went near Markus and pressed her hand lightly against his abdomen.

n

"Aarghhh!!

" Suddenly Markus shouted loudly.

n

"He most probably recieved an internal injury then.

" Kizy replied while looking straight at the Captain. .

nThe referee immediately called for a doctor who confirmed what Kizy had spoke was true, concluding that he suspected a hairline fracture of middle rib on right side.

nThus referee gave a red card to the captain who had to leave the ground, while the game ended as a draw and penalty shootouts were to decide the winner.

n

"Take him back to the infirmary.

" Kizy being the university representative ordered Charles.

n

"I.. won't go.

" Markus replied through gritted teeth.

n

"Don't tell me you intend to go for the penalty shootouts this way and want our team to lose?

" Kizy said.

nShe had known Markus for years, and she knew what he wanted the moment he refused her decision.

n

"Yes.

" He said.

n

"Charles you are our witness then. I have already asked him nicely to leave but he rejected it. So if something severe happens to his body, I won't be held responsible for it.

" Kizy said sternly.

n

"Markus I think she is right. You should go now.

" Charles said.

n

"Who is the captain now? Me. So I will decide whats right for now.

" Markus replied with difficulty.

n

"Fine.

" With that Kizy went to stand near the boundary.

nSoon the penalty shootouts started. The teammates convinced Markus to shoot last, so that they could avoid letting Markus shoot if they were on the winning end.

nBut somehow ladyluck was totally not on there side as both teams scored three goals. Markus was the last to shoot, if he could goal, then they would win.

nBut if not, then penalty shootouts would continue.

nThus Markus slowly went to his position. He was in so much pain that even simply standing was taking a lot of effort, forget he was about to kick the ball forcefully, that too using his right leg, the side which was paining even more!

n

"Come on just shoot. I will take the responsibility from here on.

" suddenly Kizy shouted from the side.

nMarkus just gave her a single glance and immediately kicked the ball with full force before collapsing on floor.

nAnd that was GOAL!!

nThus when all his team was celebrating, Charles and Kizy helped the doctors to carry him back to infirmary.

nMarkus was given some medications while Kizy and Charles simply stood there to keep a watch. Soon all his teammates entered the ward.

n

"Markus we won!

"

n

"Captain this time we have to salute you for real.

"

n

"Markus we made it!

"

nThe teammates were all excited but a little sad as well. Afterall there captain was so severely injured, yet they couldn't stop him from playing and even had to rely on him for there win.

n

"Let him rest for now. You can go back to the headmaster first and inform him. I guess you planned a party for your win, so continue with that. Don't disturb the patients in infirmary.

" Kizy spoke.

n

"How can we party without Markus?

" Charles spoke.

n

"I am sure you don't want him to attend a party with his situation. You can celebrate first and then throw another party once he is healthy.

" Kizy suggested.

n

"Ok, you all can go back. I will stay with Markus.

" Charles said to the team.

n

"You don't have to stay. Your captain isn't attending, it won't look good if another member is absent. I will stay, anyways this is my responsibility.

" Kizy adviced.

nCharles thought for a minute before finally agreeing.

n

"Take care of him. If you need anything, just call me.

" Charles said before leaving with the group.

nKizy simply nodded and took out a book from her bag to sit beside the bed.

n

"Why did you said that before my shoot?

" Suddenly Markus asked her from the side.

n

"Because I knew you would need someone to cheer for you, as your willpower is too low.

" Kizy replied without even looking at him.

n

"As if I needed your cheering. It only helped to distract my focus.

" Markus argued.

n

"Yeah. You can never score a goal while being focused, that was why I distracted you.

" Kizy said, still ignoring him while reading the book.

n

"Shut up. You were even ready to take my responsibilty there! What would have happened if my situation had worsened?

" Markus asked angrily.

n

"Nothing much, I would have conducted a proper funeral for you-

" Kizy was still speaking when Markus shouted angrily.

n

"You stupid girl! I just mentioned worsening of my condition. Do you have to kill me?

" Markus asked, enraged.

n

"No why would I kill you Markus. You were the one who wanted to kill himself by still playing after getting injured.

" Kizy said simply shrugging her shoulders.

n

"Look at me!!

" Markus ordered.

n

"Now what?

" Kizy kept her book aside and said annoyingly.

n

"So whether I live or die, it won't matter to you?

" Markus suddenly asked with all seriousness.

n

"Look Markus, let us try to remember all the moments we have spent together. Either you were bullying others, where I was scolded by teachers for not being a responsible class representative. Or you were fighting and arguing with me. Do you deserve my feelings for your death?

" Kizy answered.

n

"Kizy I never knew you were so mean who would keep grudges. Mean women live shorter lives.

" Markus commented.

n

"Happy to live a shorter life where you won't be there.

" Kizy replied.

n

"Also if you are energetic enough to bicker with me, I guess you can take care of yourself.

" Kizy packed her book inside bag.

n

"Bye.

" With that she left the ward.

n

"Hey... Kizy.. Stop there.. Aarghh.. you stupid girl... just let me recover, I will be the one to kill you then.

" Markus shouted from behind but Kizy completely ignored him and moved ahead.

n*PRESENT TIME, MARKUS's BEDROOM, EVANS MANSION*

n

"Now that I think about it, darling you were really heartless back then. To leave your hubby alone in sick condition.

" Markus said.

n

"Because I knew that a simple hairline fracture of rib won't kill you. And I wanted you to be punished for not listening to my advice on ground. Anyways I knew that the worst you would experience would be immense chestpain and nothing else.

" Kizy replied as if stating facts.

n

"Oh so my little lamb wanted me to learn from my mistakes.

" Markus replied happily.

n

"No I just wanted you to suffer.

" Kizy said.

n

"But how did you know that I had internal injury at that time? Even Charles and that referee weren't able to understand. And referee was eveing guessing whether I was faking it. How did you know about my injury then?

" Markus asked suspiciously.
