Chapter 1 - ACCIDENT

In the dark and cold room , there was me sitting on my bed while curling myself up with the warm and cozy white blanket.

It was the best feeling that I could feel after such a long and tiring day.

As I were to open my laptop as usual , a notification suddenly appear on my phone.

I look into it and saw a comment from one of my reader.

Reading the comment lightened me.

Even if the comment were just a few sentences, yet it still manage to warm my heart.

That's it, that is the only reason why I'm still into writing novel even though life hits hard. All I want is a recognition and attention from someone who will truly understand my feelings and accept me for who I am.

My name is Ella and yes , I'm a girl.

This year, I'm turning 25, and as someone who love to stay in the room all of the time, I'm currently jobless as hell.

I didn't even have any talents to begin with and all I know is some shit that can't be use in real life.

Even though, I manage to survive by myself for this year but I still can't escape from the nonstoping nagging from my mother.

'Sighhh'

If it's not because of my mom , I will never step out from my room willingly .

.....

'Krinnggggggggg....kringggggg...kringgg'

The sound of the alarm startle me.

'Urghhh'

I open my eyes slowly.

The room were filled with the sunshine that came's through the gap of the curtains .

I tilt my head towards the clock and shut it off before it annoys me any longer.

8:00 a.m

That means I have about an hour left before my part time job.

I sit on my bed and start with a little stretch before getting up.

I snatch the blue towel in the closet and began to walk into the bathroom to shower.

...

One last touch of the lip balm and I'm ready to go .

Today, I just wear a simple blue t-shirts and a nice black tight jeans to match with it .

'Klik' the door shut

While walking down the stairs, I turn on my music playlist to start my day.

🎵🎶

'Hmmmmm...hmmm...hmmm..hmm'

I'm just going to walk until I arrive at the bus station.

5 minutes past and the bus came.

After entering , I walk to the back of the bus and sit beside the window at the left side because I really love watching the morning view from there .

The view which some of them are running so fast like they were late to their work, some teenager are playing and there were even a couple who holds their hands together while walking happily.

My eyes follow them until they were gone and

'Dup' It's beating

I shut my eyes and wait for 2 minutes before moving my hand.

As I was going to pinch my thighs , a scream stopped me.

I look in the direction of the voice but in the moments of second , I can see a frightened face of a woman and all of those who sit beside her .

They were trying to stand and walk away quickly as if it can help them getting out from the bus before the truck crashes us.

'BOOMMMMMM!!!!!!'

Time slow down and I can see it clearly.

The moment when the windows shattered and people flying towards outside from inside of the bus.

'PAKK!!'

....

It was so quiet.

All i can hear is ringing from the both of my ear.

I slowly open my eyes and notice that I'm currently laying at the top of the bus that turn upside down.

'Ouchhh'

I tried to get up but my left feet stuck in between of the metal .

I tried so hard to pull it out and finally manage to get my left feet out after hurting it a bit but i didn't care to much about it.

I look at my surroundings and see people began to regain their consciousness too.

They seem confused and a crying sound of a child break the silence.

I look at him.

But ,

My eyes glued to the woman laying beside him who face cannot be recognized which has been pierced by some sharp metal.

The blood from her head constantly flowing.

I froze

Not knowing what to do .

I lay my jacket on her face , while trying to cover it up , my hand shake so much because it was my first time to see someone dead in front of me .

I took a glance to the kid and saw that the child has been hug by a grandma.

Her old wrinkle hand softly patting his head as a sign of comfort.

"shhh its okay child"

came through her mouth

My eyes began to shrink , a warm tear gather at the corner of my eyes .

But a scream so loud manage to hold back my tear from dropping.

It was a scream from the outside .

And a group of people talking so loudly can be heard.

Curious blossom in my heart , so I immediately get up and went outside from the bus carefully while dodging the sharp glasses on the floor .

The moment i step outside

There's only one thing i can think

"SHIT"

and

the world I once knew were completely gone.
