Chapter 262 - Aleksis and Her Savior (2) (1/2)
Aleksis opened her eyes and found herself lying in a large, comfortable bed. Her head hurt a lot, and she groaned while clutching her forehead.
”Don't move too much...” Suddenly a gentle voice came from the window. A young man who had been sitting and absentmindedly looking out of the window suddenly turned his head when he heard Aleksis' voice. ”How do you feel?”
Aleksis squinted her eyes at the direction where the voice came from and saw the man who asked how she was.
The sunlight from the window blocked Aleksis' view so she could not see the person's face well. He looked like he was emitting a halo around his head.
”Who are you? Where am I?” Aleksis asked in a weak voice.
”You're in my house. I saw you jump out of a speeding car last night and I brought you here to be treated. You're lucky to be alive.” The man walked over to Aleksis and sat on the edge of the bed. He placed his hand on her forehead to check her temperature, ”Hmm... you're not feverish.”
”You saved me...?” Aleksis was finally able to see the young man's face and for a moment she was stunned.
She had never seen such a gentle face with a calm, cool expression like this. His long hair and his beautiful face almost made Aleksis thought he was a woman.
She was dumbfounded for one long second and felt that the halo of sunlight coming in through the window suited this angel very well. She had never seen a creature more beautiful than this.
”Hmm...” The young man looked at Aleksis carefully, ”What's your name and where are your parents? I don't like dealing with the police, so I can't take you to the hospital, but I can contact your family...”
Aleksis frowned. She tried to gather all her memory, but she could not remember anything important. Finally, after thinking hard for a few minutes, she could only shake her head weakly.
”I do not know...”
”Hmmm... Maybe you lost your memory because your head hit the asphalt...” The man sighed. His face looked very sorry to see the state Aleksis was in. ”I'll try to find out who you were with in the car yesterday. They might be able to give information about your family.”
Aleksis bit her lip. At first, she felt afraid because she was in a strange place and could not remember anything, but when she saw the man's face, her heart slowly began to calm down. She only felt peace and zen emanating from the man who helped her.
”Th... thank you... for saving me...” she said quietly.
”Hmm...” The man nodded. He touched Aleksis' wounded forehead and examined the condition of her wound, ”You're lucky because I still have some very good medicine. The wound on your forehead will heal soon and it won't leave a scar. A girl shouldn't have a scar on her body...”
