Chapter 139
It has been years since Jace drove. He was driving as slow as a snail.
Sage did not make a sound, and she did not hurry him up. She knew how tough it was to drive once again for someone who was in a car accident
Just like her after her parent’s deathly car accident. Not long after, Jace was involved in another car accident. Sage was once so traumatized by cars that she sworn off them for a while.
She had witnessed every step of Jace’s recovery after the accident. From only being able to lie down to sitting, kneeling, and finally standing. Every step was filled with buckets of blood, sweat, and tears.
The tears of his loved ones, that was.
She’d never seen Jace cry even when he was experiencing immense pain post-surgeries. He must have been swallowing his tearst o the heart.
“Don’t mind me driving slowly. I got to get used to it again,” Jace broke the silence in the car.
Sage said lightly after hearing his voice and said, “No rush. Just take your time.”
They were in complete silence again. Moments later, Jace said with a bitter laugh, “Life sometimes throws us into a curveball. We just needed to be forced. Just a few minutes ago, I thought I would never drive in this lifetime.”
Sage snapped at him, “I did not force you.”
Jace looked at her and said, “I was forcing myself. I should have offered to drive you anyways since this is our first date.”
