��I didn't fake an accident,�� Eric laughed. ��I staged a collision, and my neck is in more pain than you could imagine. But it was for a good cause.��
Crystal smiled shyly when she heard that. She was a little bit upset about Eric's trick, but nobody had ever gone to such lengths to get her attention. ��Hang in there,�� she said. ��We've called an ambulance. Someone will come in a matter of minutes. I have to get to class, though. I have to go. I can not stay any longer,��
Eric saw that Crystal was going to leave, so, while clutching his neck, he jumped out of the car. He stretched out an arm in Crystal's direction and cried, ��You're not going to let me die, are you?��
��You're not going to die,�� Crystal scoffed. ��You are still alive and kicking, aren't you? Stop being so dramatic! You even looked better now,��
Eric twisted his neck and grimaced. ��I'm not fine,�� he groaned. ��Seriously. Look! My neck is almost broken.��
