Chapter 2 Accident and Hidden Feelings

Vrooom ~ Vrooommmmm ~

"Ahh..." Nam Khing slowly opened her eyes as she felt the pain in her head and arm. She found herself lying in a bed inside a first aid tent. Doctors and nurses were treating her wounds.

"You're awake? How do you feel?" the young doctor asked while checking the wounds on her arm. Nam Khing tried to get up, but she had to lie back down as her head spun.

"Please don't move. You still have injuries," the nurse said gently, adjusting her pillow to make her more comfortable.

Nam Khing tried to recall the previous events. She remembered being in the car with Faren and having an accident. She looked around and saw Faren sitting on a nearby chair, looking at her with tired but concerned eyes.

"Faren..." Nam Khing murmured. Faren heard her and walked towards her.

"How are you feeling?" he asked, his voice softer than usual. Nam Khing noticed the cuts on his head and arm.

"You're injured too..." Nam Khing said softly. Faren nodded slightly.

"It's nothing, just a few scratches," Faren said and sat on the edge of the bed. Nam Khing looked at him and felt the warmth in his eyes.

"Why did you do that?" Nam Khing asked curiously. Faren took a deep breath and looked at her.

"I want to win this race. No matter what," he answered honestly. Nam Khing looked at him and felt the determination in his words.

"But using violence isn't the answer," Nam Khing said, trying to warn him. Faren nodded slightly.

"I know... but sometimes in life, there's no other way to get what we want," Faren said quietly. Nam Khing looked at him and felt the sadness in his eyes.

"I don't want to see you like this," Nam Khing said softly. Faren looked at her and smiled gently.

"I'm sorry for making you worry," he said and lightly held her hand. Nam Khing felt the warmth of his hand and smiled softly.

"We'll get through this together," she said and squeezed his hand lightly. Faren nodded and smiled at her.

"Yes, we'll get through this together," he said and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. Nam Khing felt safe and warm in his arms.
