The day passed in a blink of the eye. Everyone had fun and Kyra, Oliver bonded up quite well.

After a long hiking, they decided to camp at the hill top. A few built the camp fire while the others worked on tents and preparing food.

________

"An Awake craniotomy surgery?", Kyra asked in excitement. They just finished eating and we're sitting around the bonfire, chatting and joking around.

However, Oliver got an emergency phone call and it was about some emergency surgery.

"Yes. It's Dr. Green's patient. He wants me to help him with it. You can scrub in if you want. It's a good opportunity for you as you want to specialize in Craniotomy." Oliver responded.

"I would love to join. It's a good opportunity indeed.", Kyra answered immediately. She has seen a few awake brain surgeries before but, the more she assists, the more experienced she will become.

"So you both have to go now?" Kyra's mother asked after listening to all their conversation.

She wanted to spend some time with her dear daughter but after seeing the excitement in her eyes she decided to let Kyra attend the surgery.

"Yes, Mrs. Miller. The surgery is scheduled for early in the morning. We will be able to reach and have some rest only if we leave now.", Oliver answered.

Kyra's father looked at the sky and pursed his lips. It looked like it might rain as the weather took a sudden change this evening.

"Be careful.", he said, handing the jeep's keys to Oliver.

"We will.", Oliver answered and looked at Kyra who was giving a hug to her mother and saying her farewell to others.

"Let's go?"he asked, taking both of their hiking bags in his hands.

Kyra nodded her head and followed Oliver to the jeep.

Just like that, in a few minutes they vanished from sight.

"Aunt, Oliver is still a new person to Kyra. I think we shouldn't believe Oliver so soon with her." Matthew said, reeking with jealousy already. Six to seven hours of long, night journey with Kyra is something to feel envious of.

Sometimes wonders happen overnight and he didn't want Kyra to have such a moment with Oliver, especially him.

"It is looking like it will rain. Are the roads safe?" Kyra asked in worry as she looked at the sky.

"Roads here are a little sloppy and it's a mountain range. But, don't worry. I drive very well.", Oliver said, giving her his signature smile.

Kyra was in a trance for a few seconds but she quickly recovered from it and nodded her head.

Looking at her reaction, Oliver let out a small laugh.

"You always blush when I am there.", he said. With that, Kyra blushed more and it made Oliver laugh again.

He doesn't know why but he always felt conversing with Kyra was refreshing and interesting. He felt unrestrained with her as if they knew each other from years.

"I don't know. Maybe it was because you were my Teenage crush." Kyra said, pouting subconsciously.

Even before she could notice, her bubbly side always resurfaces when Oliver was there with her. Just like him, she let her true self take action subconsciously.

"Teenage crush?", Oliver asked, surprised. His brows slightly furrowed as the rain started to suddenly pour but his attention was on Kyra.

"Yes. I was your fan even before you became a renowned doctor.", Kyra said, smiling at him as she rolled up the windows. The wind is heavy as well and as it's night, the view of road is not clear as well

When Oliver heard Kyra, he was even more surprised. He knows that she is his fan but he thought it only started when he created his own history as a doctor. He never thought that he had fans for a long time.

"So, we met many years ago. I don't..", before he could continue, Kyra interjected.

"We didn't meet. I saw you performing emergency treatment on some accident victims when I was sixteen. I was so inspired and that memory of you saving them was imprinted in my mind so much that it became a driving force for me to pursue medicine. So, you see, you are my inspiration", Kyra told him with a dazzling smile.

"So, it's very natural for me to blush in front of you. You are my idol!" she defended herself.

Moreover, if she hadn't got inspired by him to become a doctor, she would have studied whatever her biological mother would have suggested and if that would have happened, she might have never met her adopted family.

She wouldn't have been alive as well, who knows??

"I am flattered, Kyra. I didn't know I had this much of an impact on you. I am honored that I was the inspiration of a gifted doctor like you." Oliver said and he really meant it.

"It is you who is flattering me now, Oliver." Kyra said, for the first time calling him with his first name. Not some Dr. Miller or Mr. Miller or sir.

They were already talking casually with each other and with every passing day, the closeness they have is becoming stronger and stronger.

That name sounded so, so familiar and pleasing to his ears that he was taken off guard for a split second. A strong memory from the back of his head has suddenly flooded his mind.

He was kissing a forehead and the female voice very similar to Kyra's called him Oliver.

The remaining details of that memory are still foggy and he doesn't even know who that girl is. He doesn't know if it's Kyra or not but what troubled him was, he couldn't recollect that memory.

"Oliver!!!" Kyra screamed when she saw a sports car racing on the road, dangerously closing towards them.

Oliver in quick reflex escaped that sports car but because of the sloppy and wet roads, their jeep skidded off the road. No matter how much Oliver tried, the jeep didn't regain it's control but raced into the forest and because of the speed, slope of the mountain and wet mud, it flipped.

After that, the jeep soon collided with a tree.

With that, the window glasses broke and the engine started to smoke as well.

Everything happened in seconds.

Oliver opened his eyes, blood dripping from his forehead. Thanks to the airbag his injuries are only scratches and superficial.

However, when he looked at Kyra, his heart almost stopped.

She is unconscious and as her side of the car is the one which took the impact more than his, she has more injuries than his.
