23 Hurt myself everyday for your attention (1/2)

The palace was dark except for the lights from the chimney in the corridor . Alisha let her hair lose and took out the comb from the drawer admiring herself in the mirror . One stroke down her long hair and she winced in pain . Something scratched her neck . She checked the comb there was nothing but when she moved her hair away from her neck there was a long open scratch blood dripping from it  .

”Oh My God ! What's this ? There is nothing in the comb so how come ....Ah. .”Zen was passing around her room and thought to check on her . He slightly pushed the door open only to find the bed empty . He then shifted his gaze to his left and found Alisha . She didn't want him to know so just pretended to smooth her hair .

”You are still awake ? ”

”Ye.. Yeah. .. I was just about to go to bed . ”

He will just make an issue !,  no matter what I have to hide it until it  disappears though it's hurting I have to endure there is no choice .

”Why do you have to endure ? Are you insane?” Zen frowned.  Noticing Alisha's shaky movements he realised something wasn't right . So he read her mind .

”Damn it using that thing now I should have known !”

He moved her hair only to find the wound . His eyes widen and liking frightened he demanded an explanation.

”How did it happen ?”

”I was just combing my hair and I don't know how ... may be there was something sharp stuck in my hair or the  comb ” She says looking at the comb kept on the dressing table .

”Whatever it is it shouldn't get worse . I'll get some medicine ”

”No its alright I can heal myself no big deal and it's just a scratch ” She quickly keeps her palm on the wound and heals it .

”How can you hurt yourself like that be a little careful will you ?”

”If I can grab your attention then may be  I'll hurt myself everyday Zen ”

”What ! I don't like the cheerful expression you are making and if this was your act then you will lose my attention forever . Anyways I'm going . Good night . ”

”Good night !” Alisha blushes smiling to herself .
