Elena came to me holding two boxes in her hands asking me, "What should I pick? You said to take shiitake mushrooms and I got it but…" showed me the other box in her hand saying, "I want to try this too."
I took the box from her hand and it was an Oyster mushroom. While looking at it, I thought it would be good to cook along with shiitake and decided to make Pad Thai with it and said to her, "Take them both."
"Really?"
I nodded with a smile.
She jumped in excitement and asked, "What are you buying here?" And looked around me and sai

Nick's pov;I hugged her from behind and thought, 'Let's continue the promise that your parents made. I'll be with you on every first day of snow during winter and we'll see it together.'"Nick?" Elena called my name which brought me back to reality where Elena was calling my name again and again. I couldn't even comfort her properly by myself, since she's seeing me as a friend."Huh?""You came to say something. What is it?""Nothing." I smiled while patting her head, "Don't be sad. Your parents are with you here."Said while pointing at her heart and said, "And they are with you on every first day of snow in the winter as they promised."She smiled in pain and said, "Yeah." And looked at me with teary eyes. I wiped her tears away using my thumbs and looked at her and held her face while caressing it with my thumb. My heart started beating faster when s

Nick's pov; "Did you understand what I said?" Carol asked me. I nodded my head to what Carol has been chanting about Elena. She continued, "You should back away if she rejects you. You shouldn't force her into liking you. Understood?" "Yeah. Yeah." Chuck interrupted, "Don't break his hopes already! He didn't even say he likes her yet. Let's wait and see how Elena reacts after Nick confess her and then we'll see what to do about that." Carol said back to him, "I'm just stating the facts here." "What do you mean? You're saying not to go after her if she rejects him. In which is it considered as facts? And what if he chases her? What's wrong with that? He likes her so he's going after her. I don't see anything wrong with that." "Did you already forget that Elena had a break up? Accepting

"The way you talk to Elena, Change it." I warned Henry."Why should I?" He asked me while leaning on the rack full of files. I thought If only I say that I like Elena, it will be clear for him to stay away from her. So I decided to say it to him."Because I like her."He smirked at me while saying, "Interesting."I ignored him and when I tried to walk out of the document room, Henry called me by asking, "Are you two dating?"I stopped from going out and turned to him and asked him, "What is it to do with you?""You sound like you didn't tell her yet.""What?""Does she know that you like her?"I shook my head."So… that means I still have a chance.""What!?"Henry walked towards me and placed his hand on

Elena's pov;The day after I went to Nick's place where I stayed for the night because of the storm.I woke up to the alarm song from my phone. I searched for my phone while still lying on the bed... Bed? But it doesn't feel like I'm lying on a bed. Where am I lying? It doesn't feel like a bed, my hand? I felt something warm under my hand. I blinked and opened my eyes to see... Nick? Was I lying on Nick's chest all along? How and when did I crawl over to Nick? I got up from the bed quietly and rushed to the bathroom.Why is my face so red? Am I blushing? Argh! I washed my face and looked at myself in the mirror in front of me. I slammed my face with both of my hands while asking myself why are you being so obvious? Something is beating faster. I placed my hand on my chest and felt my heart beating so fast. You're not a teenager to react like this. Stop it! I slammed my hands on the sink and shouted, "I'm a grown up woman and I s

Elena's pov;I came home and dropped on the couch. I let out a sigh. Why do I feel so tired? I placed my phone on the tea table before me and tried to get a bit of sleep. Wait! The guy I met in the club! He said his name is Henry. I forgot when he said his name in the club but he made me remember this time. He's working in Nick's office? Oh my gosh! What am I going to do now? What if he said that about me? Does he remember what happened that day? The way he treated me was kinda suspicious to me. The way he talked and the way he smiled was like he remembered that day. I hope he forgot what happened that day.I walked to the bathroom and washed my face and looked at myself in the mirror. The outfit I'm wearing is Nick's. I smiled to myself and remembered about taking pictures.

I'll call you back later."I ended the call with Nick and asked the doctor who was talking to the nurse while she was applying an ice pack on my hand,"How's my hand, doctor?""Looking good. It seems like you still need to wear this splint for another week. Did you put pressure on your hand?"I shook my head and said, "I fell on it without knowing.""I said to be careful. There's inflammation on your hand so you have to wear a splint to avoid further accidents.""Actually, I got a flight to catch now. Is it okay to travel with this hand?"He gave me a stare and said, "Yeah, you can but be careful. And… don't fall. If you are about to fall, then do it on your right side." And left the room.I asked the nurse,

Elena's pov;"When will the cast be removed, Doctor?" I asked the doctor curiously."When do you want to remove the cast?""What about... Today?"He gave me a stare and said, "If you want to get cured quickly then you have to wear this. Did you forget when I said that? Actually, I wonder whenever you ask this. You haven't asked about your recovery time even once instead you're so concentrated on removing your cast. Answer me, what are you going to do after I remove the cast?... or are you worried that you couldn't use your phone since you got hurt in your right hand?"I looked at him when he raised that question to me."So that's the reason behind it. Phone has become the most important thing for this generation."Matt walked in while the doctor was talking to me. He walked to where he was sleeping and took something and

Elena's pov;Someone knocked on the door continuously which woke me up from my sleep. I took my phone and looked at the time. It's 10 already. Did I sleep that long? I turned to my right side and found an empty bed. Where's Matt? I think he's the one who's knocking."Come in!"The door opened."Why are you knocking on the door? Why don't you just come in?"My eyes almost popped out when the person walked into the room."Nick?"How did he come here? How did he know that I'm here? He didn't have any expressions on his face which made me puzzled to find what's going on in his mind. He walked to me where I was lying on the bed. As he was approaching, I tried to get up from the bed.Nick ran to me and stopped me from getting up and made me lie down on the bed again. I remained silent since I don't k

Elena's pov;Five days have passed with a routine of taking a lot of tablets at every meal of the day with the doctor checking up in the morning following the ice pack massage for my hand at night before going to sleep. Finally, they changed my bandage around my head so I got a new one today. I walked around my room with my right hand tied around my neck with a strap. It felt different in the beginning keeping my hand still but I got used to it as days went by but at the same time I wanted it to recover soon. After the nurse was done with the bandage, Matt asked me, "Are you ready?"I nodded with a bright smile. It's been days since I got to see the outside world. Hahaha."Take care, Elena." The nurse said with a smile on her face while leaving the room.After she left, I walked along with Matt out of the room. He walked beside me to make sure that I didn't get hit by someone or something.

Elena's pov; I couldn't open my eyes since it felt heavy but I was able to smell it... It was something different when I sniffed. It felt like... medicine, antiseptic and soaps? Where am I? I tried to open my eyes but I couldn't, so I tried opening it slowly and opened in the end. When I opened my eyes, it hurt because of the bright light. I blinked again and again and got adapted to the light and I could see where I am properly now. There was a white ceiling above me and I came to know that I was lying on a bed. I tried to move my head to either side to look where I was. The setup, it looked like… A hospital? Why am I in the hospital? When I tried to remember what happened... Last night… I was going with Matt… The accident!!! "MATTT!!" , I shouted out of my lungs. I tried to get up from the bed but before doing that someone ran into the room and stopped me by saying, "You shouldn't do that mam, lie down on the bed, please."
