In this dark and lonely room filled with stiff air, Sarah wiped her crystal tear on the right side of her reddish soft cheeks, she kept in mind what Samanda used to say in her uncle's funeral, Samanda's brother, " it's true that losing beloved ones in human life is painful, but as long as their believes and values settled deep down in ones heart, then they are still alive. Everything will be fine."
Sarah decided to breath fresh air and change this atmosphere, thus she went outside aiming for the hospital's garden.
'I heard this hospital's gardens are beautiful from the nurses chit chat.'
She went down by using the stairs rather than the elevator, she thought that re-energize this body would be good as a first step, before pulling the transparent glass door, she took a deep breath staring at this beautiful figure ahead of her. She remembered some flash back from the moment the doctor checked her, taking a quick glance at her data, she knew this person aged 19 years old, with the same name as her. Unfortunately, she didn't have the chance to know more, but this information for now was sufficient for her.
Sarah then opened the door with complete determination, she doesn't know how things will end, but she surely will do her best however the situation is, leaving no regrets.
Stepping the first step outside, with air tickling her hair, her hand turned into a fist and yelled with full enthusiasm "bring it on!"
"Excuse me, miss ..."
A sudden trembling voice appeared from behind, a nurse excused herself to pass from the door.
'Ahem.. that was awkward.. Anyway the garden, here I come.'
Unexpectedly, the garden feeling was completely the opposite from the general mood in the hospital, many kids were running through the shining enormous collection of flowers, with smiles in every face, from a child to a grown-up.
'wow, It's really lovely outside'
Then when least expected, a surprising band showed in the middle of the wide garden, a harmonious beautiful sound was a result of the many instruments displayed. Attracting the patients and their family members who came in a visit in a huge circle.
Sarah was enjoying her peaceful time clapping with everyone, until she noticed an old man.. alone in the corner, with no smiles or reaction, lifted with a grieve expression.
Sarah felt pain in her heart for him, mixed with pity wondering why he does look like that, and when her clapping gradually decreased, she heard the organiser invite people to dance if they pleased to do so.
When everyone was embarrassed to go and the children asking for their parents' permission, a stunning girl with smooth movements and light gestures started to dance, astonishing everyone with her alluring and graceful ballet steps, with the gentle air breeze mixed with flying petal roses.
At this moment, not a single person was able to shift his focus in another direction, left with mesmerizing scenes, this flowing dance movement that was done perfectly by an unknown gorgeous beauty, definitely will be a memory in everyone's mind.
Sarah noticed the old man focusing on her dance movements, who was then delighted and showed a faint smile, she then relaxed her body to stop dancing.
To her surprise, dozens of patients, family members and workers clapped with happy relaxed expressions, apparently not only the old man was pleased, Sarah cheerfully bent.
'Mission accomplished! .. now let's return.'
As soon as Sarah turned around, she suddenly bumped into a wall, but somehow this wall was .. soft?
'What ..?'
With exclamation marks all over her face, Sarah raised her head and finally realized it was a man's chest.
"I'm sorry sir!"
Without any warnings, the man with deep black hazy eyes smoothly got closer to her and lifted his hand to her hair, under the light sun heat, in the garden filled with opening dazzling flowers and roses, he removed a petal from the girls' sulky hair, with careful attitude as if he was taking care of a golden glass piece of art.
The aura surrounding them brought much attention, leaving the people in awe feelings, all the couples then started to act in harmony, as if they had remembered the old days.
'Pervert.'
Without any words, Sarah continued her steps heading to her room direction of the hospital, but the man's words stopped her.
"Didn't know you dance that good"
Sarah froze in her place, her body rooted to the ground, she then turned showing her killing charming smile tilting her head to one side.
"Hm?"
"Later, we can dance in the mansion's hall."
Sarah with her killing smile still shown, she screamed eternally.
'Now who is he? from the few words he said, and the attitude from before, could he be .. The boyfriend? Perhaps a family member?'
With another glance, Sarah examined the person.
'As expected from this body owner.'
Indeed, the man in front of her was a perfect job made by god. His body height must be around 180 cm, his bone structure along with his body proportional length, long legs with broad shoulders, still all that didn't superior the work done in his face.
"It's getting cold."
"Cold .. what cold exactly? It's still sunny"
He took off his jacket suit, and then placed it around her fair shoulder, helping her to continue walking towards her room.
Actions happened abruptly, Sarah's facial expression was blank, for the outsiders it could be a romantic view from beautiful young couples, but reality is.. It could be abduction!?
'I can't act irrationally, especially when I don't know the previous relationship between the true body owner and him, I don't even know his name!'
After a deep breath she proceeded 'best case scenario, it could be my caring brother. Worst one, it could be an enemy hiding his true intentions. With him wearing a high class suit, it means he is a working man, in his twenties, eliminating all the rest possibilities, there should be at least a secretary walking beside him'
"Where is your secretary?"
With doubt covered by calmness, Sarah asked the man next to her.
"I'm here, miss."
An unexpected voice popped in, Sarah noticed there were already a middle-aged man wearing a black suit in the other side.
"What's your name? I seem to have forgotten."
"Martin Markstorm, miss"
'Alright, no one will care if a young rich teenager forgot some assistant name, but why do I feel the atmosphere is brutally cold? Is it me?'
Finally, reaching the room, Sarah composed herself in the bed, while the man sat in the chair beside the bed, standing behind him the assistant.
"Prepare the car."
With neat direct order, the assistant then proceeded to leave the couple alone.
'Phew.. Why suddenly the miss asked about my name? She never cared before.'
He tried to collect his calmness after recalling the body that was cutting into pieces last night.
