When Amelia was busy reading there was a commotion from the left side of the road. At nine o'clock a car drove recklessly seen the car had hit several cars and motorcycles, even people who were on the side of the road were victims. Some vehicles that try to avoid even fall or hit the sidewalk of the road.

Amelia who saw the car heading towards her prepared to run away from the center of the accident but accidentally saw a little girl who was crying. One of the trucks trying to avoid the car walked towards the girl.

“Sial....whose son strays here..? where are her parents anymore...? if you don't need to make it here just to be adopted fucking.!”  Rutuk Amelia with a high tone. His face was between annoyance and worry. “Please ya..? hisss...,” But the body moves faster than the mind.

Not knowing the courage from which Amelia instead ran towards the girl and tried to save her as the adults around her looked very panicked and did not notice the existence of the little girl.

Amelia tried to carry him and take him as far away as possible, there was no way the child was invited to communicate. Either out of fear or anxiety he ran with a slight tremble. Suddenly from the back Amelia was hit by a spotlight from a truck that she tried to avoid. When looking back he was surprised to see the position of the truck is about 1 meter from him. Amelia gulped nervously, looking around and looking at a man looking to the left like he was looking for something.

“Pak catch...!!” Gathering all her strength Amelia blurted as hard as she tried to attract the father and yup. Without thinking about throwing the little girl, he was not sure if he could throw the child to get to the father.

And the miracle happened, right after the father caught him, he was thrown several meters away after being hit by a truck. The father then ran towards him while holding the little girl. It was like he wanted to tell her something. But he really could hear nothing more than the sound of his breathing becoming heavy.

Amelia tried to read her lips even though it was a little fuzzy because of the blood dripping from her temple, she could understand that the Father was trying to thank her for saving his daughter, “Oh turned out to be his father....thank goodness..” Amelia simply smiled in response.

Although she could repeat time, Amelia would definitely do the same. This is the most correct decision he ever made, “Though to die today I will not regret. My life is useful too.... No harm also turned out.” Amelia gave a small smile, all her life she had always felt like a burden and was in no mood. But this is the first time Amelia has felt that being human is useful even if it has to be paid for with life.

Before she lost consciousness completely Amelia saw the novel lying not far from her had been splashed with blood. The novel 'ice statue prince & poor girl' gives off a light like a firefly and disappears very quickly like an illusion.

Amelia then wakes up in a foreign place not a hospital or the afterlife but in a luxurious minimalist European-style room. Before he could digest the strangeness around him, Kepalanyan began to feel very sick, various foreign memories infiltrated his brain like incomplete movie flashes. Followed by pain throughout his body similar to when he was in an accident, especially his left hand.

From a vague memory he knew he was in a hotel because the original owner of this body was intent on suicide. With all her strength, Amelia tried to find a phone to call the hotel service. With each step it felt as painful as in shreds.

After successfully connecting without waiting for the other party to respond he immediately said, “call the ambulance and send someone to Presidential Suite room No.215 immediately. “ Finished saying all that Amelia instantly fell sprawled on the floor. Sambl awaits Amelia's help trying to stop the advances in her left arm.

“Hopefully come quickly I don't want to die a second time.” As Amelia waited for help to arrive. Time seemed to pass very slowly like many years but it also felt like the blink of an eye.

Hearing the door broken Amelia tried to give a sign about her position which was now blocked by the sofa From the sound of footsteps that sounded they instead walked opposite from where she was.

“Here...fast....!!”

Seen there were several people coming towards him led by a middle-aged man dressed as a manager, followed by two male staff and a female staff.

Amelia tried to give instructions even though every sentence felt very confused, “Take me to the hospital immediately... for the administration you can pay using the ATM I keep in the drawer next to the bed... her password is 1509xxxx” From her increasingly quiet voice and a darkened look she hopes they do what she says before she falls unconscious.

Seeing the guest in front of him fall unconscious makes the people around him panic. But given what the girl had said earlier, the manager ordered the female staff to look for the card and the rest helped take the girl to the hospital. He was also told that the girl had called the hotel service to call an ambulance. Maybe the Ambulance is already below, it will greatly facilitate his work.

*****

Dark..cold.

His first impression when he entered this place.

He kept walking, walking, walking until he forgot the concept of time.

maybe even decades.

He didn't feel tired, but somehow he felt empty, sad, angry, disappointed, claustrophobic. I don't know if he's not sure if all those emotions are true.

He didn't even know where he was walking, all he was lying about was the darkness. He just wants to get there quickly, but where the end goal is. He just felt like he had to keep going forward.

As he began to feel despair a bright spot appeared in the distance. As the star felt so close, as he tried to walk there, he realized the point was very far away to reach. He just wanted to give up and stay in this place. But it was like there was a voice in his heart that chased him on and on.

Just a little more until....

He now knew the bright spot was a lantern that gave off a fiery red light. The closer he got the more lanterns he saw until he was bathed in a red, warm glow felt in an embrace. Faintly she heard the whisper, “Shut up a little, you've been struggling.”

As he wanted to find the source of the voice, he suddenly felt very sleepy like he had not slept for days. Unknowingly he was sound asleep.

Description: From here Amelia has been changed to Ruby.

In a private hospital.

Ruby opened her eyes, she blinked a few times to adapt to the light around her after a long time in a dark place.

As long as she was in a coma the original Ruby memory was perfectly integrated in her brain. Amelia, now Ruby, understands that she has moved into the world of Novel, 'Prince of ice sculptures & Poor Girl' after being hit by a truck. The antagonist of Ruby Ariana Volker.

“if you know so gini I've thrown away that novel all I burn so that it can mampus..!!”

Thought Ruby regretted, from the look of the novel was suspicious but still he took it. Regrets always come at the end.

Ruby also looked at the room where she lives now, she finally understood the meaning of the sentence, 'Poverty limits imagination'. The room is dominated by white and cream more mitip hotel rooms than hospital rooms.

There's no one else here. Luxurious but quiet in addition to the slow and constant beeping sound of the machine on its side.

“this I think ECG machine.” Ruby continues to be homologous in the heart.

Ruby who is focused on seeing the ECG machine (Electrocardiogram) position is now sitting next to the bed with legs dangling, while the other half of her body is resting on the bed. The position of the bed has also been adjusted so that it is comfortable to lean.

After a while, the door opened and a nurse came in followed by a middle-aged doctor wearing a white suit. When ruby exchanged glances with the people who had just entered. Ruby saw shock in their eyes.

Ruby scrunched her forehead while tilting her head slightly with confused eyes Ruby wanted to ask.

“Ha...hello..” Only a dry whisper was heard. Ruby just realized her voice was very hoarse like a person who had not drank for a few days. Makes his round eyes more round.

Seeing the patient's behavior in front of the Doctor and the airman just a small smile. According to them, Ruby's behavior is very adorable except her pale and chapped lips this girl does not look like a person who just woke up from a coma.

“Suster let him drink through straws.”

“Halo miss. My name is Dr. Riyan. How does miss feel? Is your left hand still hurting.”.

“Emmm... a little dizzy.weak and hungry...How long have I fainted,” Ruby slightly cuddled and said what she felt.

Hearing Ruby's last sentence made the doctor and nurse laugh a little.

Seeing them laugh Ruby felt very embarrassed. “What I said is

salah...,” Her pale face slightly flushed.
