The Day They Met

Alex knew that he was extremely sleepy as he drove his car. He was going to somewhere outside the town because of his job. He was really tired on the way back to the town. Would it be a good idea if he stopped his car beside the road and took a nap? No, he didn't want to do like that. The sun had set and he didn't have enough time. His mom's worried face appeared in his thought. With determination, he sped up his car.

But he was careless for a second, the car was out of his control. Although he turned the steering wheel quickly, he was late. The car met with a huge tree. He could feel the severe pain in head before he gave up his consciousness.

Elina was spending time in her garden when she heard a loud sound. She ran outside to see what was happened. There was a car hitting the tree and the person was unconscious. But he was still alive. Elina got him out of the car with the help of Mark and Zoey, who were living with her.

Elina was a doctor but not professional. She saved him from the life danger.

Alex felt weird. He could tell that he wasn't dead. This thought made him relieved. The last thing he remembered was that the load crashing sound of car with the tree. The headache and the pain from the body really made him terrified.

But he heard someone walking into the room. At the same moment, he could smell the sweet scent of roses. Then he slowly opened his eyes.

"Are you awake?" The voice was clear and melodious. After gaining full consciousness, he could see his lifesaver. She was beautiful with long, straight, black hair. She was wearing a dress. She looked like an angel. He could guess she was the same age as him. He could tell that he was not in hospital and she was also not a nurse.

" Where am I right now?" He asked.

"Do you remember the car accident last night?" She asked him without a smile.

"Yes, I do."

"The place where the accident took place was in front of my house. That is why I helped you. Your car was also in the garage but it was really damaged. You also got mild head injury and some bruises. But you're lucky 'cause we saved you as soon as we heard the loud sound."

Alex was speechless and forget to say thank you because he found himself attracted to her voice and her style. She was so beautiful, kind-hearted, innocent and gentle even though her tone was cold.

For Alex, so many girls were after his handsome appearance and his wealth. But he didn't interest in them. However, it was fate that he fell in love at first sight.

"How long I was out?"

" For a day."

" Thank you very much for the help, Miss. You were also busy to call the doctor last night and also took care of me."

She smiled. But he didn't know why she smiled.

Then a boy entered the room with a soup bowl in his hands.

" This is Mark. He will help you whatever you want. Take medicine after having food." She left the room after saying those words.

Alex was still staring at the door. The boy prepared the place where Alex could eat comfortably. The room was clean and well-ventilated. While eating, Alex asked Mark.

"Mark, where is this place?"

"This is 'Nature House' rose garden outside the town. I'll show you around when you're better soon."

" And is she the owner? Where's her parents?"

"Yes, Miss Elina is the owner of rose garden. Her parents didn't live with her. She didn't have any relation. She is alone but very strong."

The image of her mature, confident style appeared in his mind.

Her beautiful, bright eyes reflected her smart behaviour.

And the name was also meaningful and pretty.

Elina.
