“Why did you leave Luna alone?!” Adriel's mother screamed at him while driving in his car.
“He's not a child anymore, why would I accompany him?” Adriel said without paying much heed to her mother's words.
“You are his fiancee! How's kam-!”
Adriel just turned off the call from her mother. “Hm?” Adriel turns her car down when she sees Zoey walking by the side of the road.
Instantly a smile appeared on Adriel's face, she immediately marginalized her car right in front of Zoey. Adriel immediately lowered the windshield. “Zoey!”
Zoey who was walking with her head down was surprised when she heard the call, she raised her head and looked ahead. “Mr. Wilder..?” Zoey muttered in a slightly frightened voice, as if wanting to avoid her Zoey lowered her head again and dared not look at Adriel.
Adriel, who realizes Zoey is trying to avoid her, opens her car door and runs towards Zoey.
“A-There's what Mr. Wilder..?” Zoey kept her head down and did not dare look into Adriel's face.
“Come in the car, I'll take you home. It's night, it's not good for a woman like you to walk alone like this.” Adriel said with a sad expression as she looked at Zoey who would not look at her face.
“T-No need, I can go home by myself.” Zoey refused Adriel's invitation in a trembling voice.
Zoey suddenly recalled the moment Adriel who walked past her and stood with Luna this afternoon, clasping her bag rope firmly with trembling hands. “Please don't look at me.. please leave me alone..”.
“Zoey!” Adriel could only look at Zoey's back who was running away from her. “I want to pursue him.. but... what should I tell him..?” Adriel clasped his own hand firmly, blaming himself for his helplessness.
“Hah...hah...hah...” Zoey continues to run without caring about the things around him, he continues to run until his legs are no more energy and fall.
Zoey immediately woke up and saw both of her knees bleeding. “Saddening... although Maria is bad at sports, she never falls while running even though she is very tired.
The tears he kept on holding now fell from both of his eyes, Zoey kept wiping away the tears and repeatedly told herself to stop crying because she always thought even if she cried like this nothing would change. But the tears kept falling and he could not control them at all. “Stop crying stupid.”
Zoey slapped herself many times to stop her tears but those tears kept flowing. He felt increasingly empty, even his knee that initially felt pain now the pain he felt began to disappear slowly.
“Are you okay?” The gentle voice of a man made Zoey come to her senses from her long daydream. “Your knee is bleeding..” The man approaches Zoey and tries to clean up the blood on Zoey's knee.
Zoey who was looking at the man who was cleaning up the wound on her knee just looked at him blankly. “Who are you..?” Zoey asked with a voice trembling from crying.
“I'm just a doctor who happens to pass by here.” The man answered while looking into Zoey's eyes with a gentle look.
“Why did you help me?”
“You need help, right? ‘If you see a person in distress, you should immediately help him’ That is something my parents often say.” The man still smiled gently as he cleaned the blood in Zoey's wound.
