Just when he was about to cross the road, a car drove towards him in a very high speed. Leo wasn‘t able to react and I yelled, “BROTHER, WATCH OUT!”
I pushed him with all my might, out of the car‘s way.
With a loud bang, my body hit the floor. In a moment of seconds, I was lying in a pool of blood in the middle of the road, slowly slipping out of consciousness.
Leo finally understood what just happened and rushed towards me. Looking at me, who was covered with blood, he didn‘t even know how to speak anymore. The expression on his face……it was my first time seeing him so scared.
“Jen….Jennie…… you…..” he stuttered.
I struggled to speak my last sentence before fainting, “Send me to the hospital, brother! I don‘t want to die!”
Someone called the emergency number. Leo carried me up softly, he didn‘t dare to touch my head, it was very bloody.
I forced myself to stay awake, I wanted to attack his heart, to bury myself deep into his heart, to soften his heart using this chance.

I struggled to put my hands on his face and said, “Brother, I‘m afraid of dying, but I‘m more afraid of you dying!”

“Jennie, just so we are clear, we can‘t go back to how things used to be anymore.” Leo said suddenly. I looked at him, but I didn‘t say anything.
“You are going to be my brother‘s wife, and you and him even have a child already. It‘s impossible. We, are impossible.” He added.
I scoffed, “Yeah, right. Talk as if you really loved me sincerely. You pitied me,

Leo stared at me with sorrow eyes and sighed. “T‘ll leave you with brother then, rest well, I‘ll come visit you again. Thanks again for saving my life, but never do that ever again.”
Lance came in afterwards and said, “Don‘t let me find out this accident is somehow related to you. That didn‘t seem like an accident at all.” He said, he was straightforward and cold.
