Blood was splurting everywhere. The car eventually stopped, in front of it lies unfortunate Rose, unmoved. Her white face and lively red blouse was all covered in cherry red blood. Eyes closed, she was unconscious. Only god knows weather the heart within still have the will to survive or not.

The busy road became all quiet and static like, the world revolved seems to stop for a few minutes. Some vehicle stopped and parked nearby, some just mobilize away.

He realized that he was late for his night shift as a resident doctor that he had to leave her and attend to his patients. He was given wound bandage on his injured hand and he was off to work, imbalance emotionally. He was afraid that if he wouldn't be able to say what he's been keeping from Rose.
