Rhianne feels like there is a fire burning in her chest. She forced herself to take a deep breathe a few times which made her cough dry, which result in her feeling pain in her throat. There is a rough feeling in her throat as if she did not drink water for a week. Not to mention that her head Is also hurting so much. 

When she heard that someone is calling her name in a panicky voice, she forced herself to open her eyes. But Rhianne's body is not cooperating with her so she closed her eyes again and motionlessly laid her body flat on the floor. That made the people around her to let out more panicking voices.

Rhianne tried to recall the things that happened in the accident. When the bus suddenly crashed with the truck, her body was squeezed so much in her seat and her head was hit so hard on the pole. At that moment, Rhianne guessed that she will die in that accident. But maybe luck was on her side this time since she can still feel herself breathing even though it is kind of hard to do for now.

"Quick! Francis, help me to carry her in the car! The ambulance is taking so long. We will bring her to the hospital!"

Rhianne heard a lot of footsteps near her. There is also a voice of a woman who continuously gives her orders to their surroundings. She struggles to open her eyes again to see the faces of the people beside her. Rhianne sees a middle-aged woman and a teenage boy beside her.

'Ah. Maybe they are part of the rescue team.'

"Rhianne, don't close your eyes! You should be awake until we reach the hospital." The teenage boy said to her.

Rhianne did not know how did they learn her name. Maybe because they saw her company ID inside the old shoulder bag she is using at work. But that is okay since being called by her name instead of calling her with random names is better.

Then Rhianne feels that someone is gently lifting her body. She wanted to struggle since it is a little uncomfortable, but she feels like her energy is fully drained. In the end, Rhianne lets the teenage boy to carry her body. Maybe it is best for her not to struggle in his arms anymore.

Rhianne tries to keep her consciousness alert even though she has already forgotten half of the things that are happening in her surroundings. All she can remember was that the teenage boy carried her body and it seems like they ride in a car. Then after a few minutes, they get out of the car and heard several people asking about her current condition. The last thing Rhianne can remember was that the teenage boy who carefully placed her on a bed and a doctor and several nurses get near to her.

The cold, fresh air is the first thing Rhianne feels when she opens her eyes again. She can feel her body is still weak, but not to the point that Rhianne wanted nothing to do but to sleep just like earlier. She blinked her eyes a few times to adjust her eyesight. She then observed her surroundings.

The room's walls are all white. There is an open window in it with a simple but elegant blue curtain. There is also a carpet on the floor that looks like a fluffy cloud. Two big sofas were placed inside the room and there is a small coffee table at the center of it. When she turned her head to her right, she saw a table with a vase full of artificial flowers beside her bed.

'This does not look like a room in a normal hospital.'

She quickly worries for the hospital bills. She really hopes it is not too expensive or else her savings will be in danger. Rhianne tried to sit up but stops when she noticed something. An IV drip is attached to her right arm. Rhianne carefully moved her left arm to support her body to sit up when the door suddenly opened.

Seeing that her sister is finally awake, Francis stands at the door in a daze for a while before running out to call her doctor. Rhianne was confused to see the familiar teenage boy who just opened the door and ran quickly to disappear. After a while, the teenage boy entered the room again with a doctor behind him.

Rhianne thinks the doctor is still young but he looks professional and trustworthy. He checks up on her condition for a while. He also asked some questions to Rhianne which she answered quietly. After the doctor checked up on her, he talked to the teenage boy before leaving the room. Soon, the teenage boy comes inside her room again.

"I am so glad that you are fine. I told you not to swim in the deepest part of the pool! Look at what happened to you! Rhianne, you almost died! Do you hear me? You made my heart stop for a few seconds! The next time you will do that again, I will really hit you. You really scared me!" The teenage boy said as he continued scolding Rhianne in a harsh voice.

Rhianne, on the other hand, can't understand what this teenage boy is talking about. Is he even talking to the right person? Maybe he mistook her for someone he knows? Obviously, the person he wants to talk with has a similar name as hers.

'And what pool? What is he talking about? I was in a bus accident that almost took my life. Fortunately, I am still alive.' She thought. 

But before that, there is an important question that Rhianne really wanted to ask from this teenage boy.

"Excuse me, but... who are you?" Rhianne carefully asked.

A huge silence suddenly filled the room.
