The Flashback
Ago 12 Years
Under the night sky illuminated by the moonlight, a man fell down in pain with a pool of blood seeping from his stomach.
He was sitting in a small dark alley that was only illuminated by a few lights that were 100 meters away with the next lamp. His hands were busy pressing open wounds on his abdomen, while grabbing his phone quickly.
He dialed someone's number from there. "They went west." He said after his phone line was connected.
After saying that, he turned off the phone connection with a gasp of breath. His face was pale and his blood did not stop. If this continues, he will soon bleed out.
"Oh God." the man turned his head quickly to the source of the voice.
He found a girl looking at him with a surprised face while covering her mouth with a palm.
The man looked at the girl, but cringed again as his body lost strength and the pain shifted his mind.
With hesitant steps, the girl began to approach the dying man. "You all right? I'll call the Ambulance." His words slightly lowered to see the man grimacing with blood that did not stop.
"Don't! Get out of here!" Said the man having trouble with a growling face.
The girl was seen putting on a worried look. "If you don't want to, you'll bleed to death." His words began to raise the tone because of the stubbornness of the man.
"Shut your mouth!" The girl was silent with an annoyed face. He finally turned his body and was about to leave from there. But just a few steps, his legs stopped again and turned around with an annoyed face.
He approached the man again. "If you don't want to go to the hospital, you can come to my house. I can treat you." The girl said at length.
The man on the verge of death raised his face and looked at the figure of the girl in front of him with a sharp look.
"It's not funny that you die here." Add the girl again.
The man was silent for a moment, then got up from his place with great difficulty. He pressed the wound on his stomach while grimacing.
The girl smiled faintly knowing that the man in front of her had finally decided to come to her house and be treated by her.
"Follow me!" His word. The man limped while holding the wall to be his back.
"Let me help." A pair of hands of the girl helped the weak body that looks crowded just to carry his own body.
"Luckily my house is close by."
It didn't take long, they reached the girl's house. The man sat on the sofa, while the girl painstakingly cleaned the wound and sewed open wounds on the man's abdomen.
"At least this stops your bleeding for a while. You'd better see a doctor just in case there's a cut in your internal organs." The girl was seen sewing her wounds expertly.
The man sat with a pale face. He took his cell phone and sent the location to someone there.
"Done." The girl tidied up her medical devices after she finished sewing and bandaging the man's wounds.
"I'm Nathalie." His words introduced themselves suddenly while tidying up his goods.
The man did not answer, making him cluck. "Have you contacted your friend? If not, I'll actually call an ambulance." Said threatened.
"You lie down first!" The girl named Nathalie slowly led her body to lie on the sofa.
The man still grimaced a few times. Nathalie was amazed by the man in front of her. The wide wound he sewed without using drugs because he did not have a stock of drugs today.
Nathalie looked into the eyes of the man who had begun to close after successfully lying on the sofa. He took a blanket and covered the man's body and let him rest.
15 minutes later, the sound of knocking on the door made Nathalie step quickly and open it. There were two men with looks similar to the appearance of a dying man in his house. Their hands were seen clutching a folding stretcher.
"Hello."
"Ah, hello. Are you the friends he's been in contact with to come pick you up?" Ask Nath.
"Yes." Yeah."
"He was inside, just falling asleep. You have to take him to the hospital, he has to be checked properly."
Nath leads the two men to the sofa, where his impromptu guest is. The two men swiftly carried her body slowly, then laid her on a stretcher.
After that, they walked out and went into the car. "Thank you." Said one of the men before they went away from his yard. Nath replied with a small nod while putting on a thin smile, then looked at the car that was slowly starting to disappear from his sight.
Two weeks after the incident, Nathalie never saw the man again. That night, Nathalie walks casually through the alley to her house.
Small, narrow and dark alley. His steps swallowed as his eyes again stared at the familiar figure sitting down while holding his stomach.
Nathalie approached with a shocked face. "You again." The sitting man raised his head and looked at Nathalie.
Nathalie clucked then crouched down. He looked at the man's hand, which was pressing against his stomach, right where he was injured two weeks ago.
"You crazy?" Nathalie was amazed.
"Go!"
Nath remained crouching while staring at the man in wonder. He also stood up. "I'll treat you at my house if you want. You remember where you are, right?" Nath walked back and forth, leaving the stubborn man there as if he were sure that the man would come to see him.
...****************...
Nathalie re-cleansed her medical items after she finished treating a man sitting on her couch.
Fortunately the wound this time was only fairly open, not as severe as two weeks ago. "I'm Nathalie, if you forget. Your name?" Ask the girl.
"Kenzo." The man answered briefly and coldly.
"It looks like you have a lot of enemies out there. You need to be more careful, if you don't want to die soon." Nathalie went to keep her medical box.
"I'll make you some Cream Soup, just take a break." He added, while moving toward his kitchen, while the man named Kenzo stared fixedly at Nathalie's back that began to move away.
Since that day, Kenzo often came to Nathalie's house by breaking into her window. The man slowly becomes interested in the girl who saved his life.
Over time, their relationship grew closer and within months, Kenzo expressed her feelings and they ended up dating. Kenzo loves Nathalie very much, she is his first love. The first woman to soften her cold heart that had been frozen since she was a child.
