"We need to call the cops or the ambulance," someone yelled as they tried to pull the casualties out of the car that was about to explode.
A bulky man stepped forward and tried to pull Crescentia out but it was slightly difficult because she was holding Noella with her dear life—shielding her with her body from the crash.
After successfully unclinging the two, they were taken to the hospital.
A few hours later,
Crescentia woke up in an unfamiliar room. The beeping sound of the device near the bed irritated her ears. Then they immediately remembered what had happened.
Truck. Taxi. Crash. Noella!!
She searched around the bed but didn't find Noella anywhere. Instead, she found a black coat settled on the couch opposite the bed. From the looks of it, it was the coat of a man. However, Crescentia didn't go to check it out. She opened the door, wincing with each step she took as her pulse drummed under her skin.
