James was sitting in the driver's seat. The impact would have crushed him if he hadn't managed to escape. Tears welled up in Esther's eyes as she looked at the wreckage.
"James!" she cried out and attempted to approach, but a passerby grabbed her arm, urging her to move away. "What are you doing? This car could explode any second. Run!" Esther struggled to break free. "No, my boyfriend is still in the car. I have to find him!" "What boyfriend? Even if he's inside, with that impact, he'd be a goner by now." The passerby shook his head, signaling her to stay back.
Esther was held down, forced to watch helplessly as the car slowly caught fire.
Esther was immersed in grief when she suddenly heard a familiar voice behind her. "What are you thinking, silly? How could anything happen to me?" She couldn't believe it when she turned around and saw James standing not far away, with a few scratches on his face. He smiled gently as if nothing had happened.
Esther was almost terrified. Overwhelmed by fear, she threw herself into his arms. "Do you have any idea how scared I was? You pushedout, and I thought you hadn't made it out." James patted her back reassuringly. "How could I? I'd never leave you behind." Things had happened so fast that he could only open the door and roll onto the roadside, accidentally scratching his face.
Esther touched the scars on his face, feeling sorry for him. "It must hurt a lot. Let's go to the hospital." James shook his head, releasing her hand, and waited until the vehicles were almost burnt out, getting ready to approach and take photos for evidence.
Watching his actions, Esther asked, "What are you going to do?" "I suspect the crash wasn't just an accident. Look, there's no one in the car, which means the person inside has jumped out to escape."
