Rose Second Life's
Episode 11's. Debt of mind

"What happened Rose? why would your car hit a tree on the side of the road?" ask James in a row.

Rose thought for a moment before replying, "The truck deliberately crashed into my car. I've honked and avoided it. From the beginning, the truck targeted my car."

Michael and James frowned together, they were shocked to hear Rose's words.

"Did you see the face of the truck driver?" ask James.

Rose shook her head slowly, "I didn't get to see the driver's face, I was too busy dodging the big truck."

"Is your car attached to a camera?" ask Michael.

Rose nodded, "Some, papa once put a camera in the front and back of my car."

Michael had Gerry check the camera footage in Rose's car. "I'm going to catch the culprit and make him pay for what he did." Michael thought.

"James.thank you for saving me." said Rose.

"I'm not the one who survived you Rose" James replied honestly.

"Hmmm? Then who?" rose asked with a confused face. Rose only remembers her calling James before losing consciousness.

James directed his gaze at Michael, Rose instantly understood James' intentions.

"It turns out he helped me." - Rose.

"Thank you for saving my life and taking me to the hospital" Rose said in a small voice.

Michael smiled coldly and replied, "You'll have to pay for it someday."

"Ck.. There's a want!" mind Rose.

Although upset, he could not deny that Michael had saved his life. He owes that man.

Rose fell asleep again after a long talk, she was still weak due to the anesthetic influence during the operation.

James went home to change his clothes and prepare for the change. Today is Mother Yanti's birthday. Mother Yanti is a woman who represents the figure of a mother for children in the orphanage where James grew up. He didn't want to miss a special day that only came once a year.

Michael was still in the hospital accompanying Rose, he was doing his office work there. Sometimes he would turn to the bed to look at Rose's face.

"Young man, I've got the face of the truck driver" said Gerry, who had just walked into the room.

Michael was silent for a while, he then said, "Capture and investigate who the man is working for. Find out what purpose they killed Rose for."

"Your young master" replied Gerry. He called someone and relayed the boss' orders to that person.

Gerry is back to help Michael. As usual, Gerry will prepare a cup of hot coffee for his boss once every 2 hours.

The lunch hour had passed, Michael was still busy with work. Gerry bought ready-to-eat food in the hospital cafeteria, but it was not touched in the slightest.

"Young master, your lunch is already cold. Do I need to buy a new one?" gerry asked who was worried about the health of his boss.

"No need, just go back to the office. I'll call if I need your help" Michael said without looking at Gerry, his eyes still focused on the company's report book.

Gerry nodded, he tidied up the items that would be brought back to the office then walked out slowly so as not to disturb Rose who was resting.

An hour passed after Gerry's departure, Michael grew tired because he didn't sleep last night. Michael threw his body onto the long sofa, just a few minutes into a deep sleep.

Rose opened her eyes, she felt thirsty because her throat was dry exposed to the cold AC inside the room. He tried to reach for the glass by the bed.

"Prlngg!!!"

The glass fell off, Rose's hand hurt as she held the glass. Unknowingly he let go of his grasp, the glass fell and shattered.

Michael was jolted awake by the sound of broken glass. He got closer to the bed and found out what was going on.

"I'm sorry, I startled you" Rose said as she watched Michael approach.

"You thirsty?" michael asked guessing from the broken glass.

Rose nodded, she looked at Michael with a face of pity as if asking for pity.

Rose tried to lift the water bottle, but her hand still hurt from the accident.

Michael realizes that, he helps Rose to sit on the bed and helps pour mineral water into Rose's little lips.

"Thank you" Rose said in a soft voice.

Rose was still afraid of Michael, yet she had no other choice as there was only Michael by her side at the moment. He was forced to accept help from the man.

"You're not coming home?" ask Rose.

Little heart Rose wished Michael had answered "no". Rose doesn't want to be alone in the hospital.

Michael drew their faces closer and replied, "If I go home and you run away, who pays this life debt?"

"Basic guy calculation!" mind Rose.

Rose lies back down aided by Michael, closing her eyes as she feels awkward being in a room alone with a man.

Michael enveloped Rose, he returned to the sofa and laid down his tired body. Rose peeked at the man, her resentment having diminished seeing Michael's attention to him.

"Maybe he's not that bad." Rose's inner.

"Drtts.... Drtts...."

Rose's phone shook, she panicked as she saw the name that appeared on the screen. "How is this?" mind Rose.

Papa Rose called with a video call, Rose was confused as to how to explain her condition. If Papa and Mama knew about the accident he had, Rose would have been sent back to America.

Rose is not at home in America, she feels bored because there is nothing she knows in that foreign country. Moreover, the food there was very incompatible with Rose's tongue.

Michael heard the sound of mobile phone vibration, he looked at Rose who was looking at him with a pleading gaze. Rose did hope that the man would help her deal with the overprotective papa.

Michael sighed before getting up from the sofa, he picked up Rose's phone and answered the phone.

"Sore om, I'm Michael Rose's friend. He left his cell phone on campus. Is there anything important to talk to Rose about?" michael said immediately explained, to finish faster.

"Sore son Michael, if so send greetings to Rose. Tomorrow please tell Rose to call back. Tell him that his dad misses him." said Papa Hanz.

"Okay." replied Michael.

Michael returned the phone to Rose. With a tired face he returned to the sofa and laid down his body.

"Thank you.." said Rose slowly. Michael just kept quiet without answering, he was too tired to talk.

Rose thought all night about how to outwit papa Hanz because tomorrow she'd have to call back. Michael seemed to know the contents of Rose's mind, he called and told Gerry to bring some large posters.

Gerry came carrying a poster with a picture of the scene and attached the poster to the wall of the hospital room. Now that room doesn't look like a hospital anymore. Rose chuckled at Michael's brilliant idea. Rose called Hanz's father without suspicion.

During the week in the hospital, Michael continued to look after Rose without surgery. James sees Rose every day, but the college schedule makes James unable to keep Rose at all times.

The perpetrator has been found and detained but the brains of the perpetrator have not been found. The truck driver named Benni, the man had been a fugitive for a year for allegedly killing 2 students.

Benni continues to deny the attempted murder he committed against Rose, saying that the collision was unintentional. Finally, Benni was thrown into prison without knowing who the real culprit was.

Rose has been allowed to return home, but Michael feels unsafe if Rose is alone because the person who wanted to kill Rose is still unknown. Michael decided to stay at Rose's house.

Michael drove Rose home, the man carried Rose into the mansion and sat Rose on the couch.

"Well, do you have a suitcase?" rose asked in surprise when she saw Gerry carrying a suitcase into the mansion.

Gerry looked at Michael as if telling Rose that the suitcase belonged to Michael.

"I will stay here until the culprit is caught" Michael replied with a serious face.

"What???" rose was shocked to hear Michael's words.
