With that, Sabrina finally relaxed, her fears subsiding. Even as she sat on her bed, her relief was tinged with Lingering fear.
Once the nurse left, Tyrone turned to Sabrina, his voice soft. Why did you panic so much earlier? Were you worried I was gone?
Rather than answer, Sabrina chose to stare out the window. My father did the same thing to protect me, and he died. Seeing you motionless on the steering wheel brought it all back.
Dont worry. Im not going anywhere. I wont leave you like your father did, Tyrone reassured her.
Her fears eased, Sabrina exhaled a sigh of relief. She felt a strange blend of gratitude for surviving the disaster and a turmoil of other emotions.
Her panic earlier was foolish. If Tyrone had died, he wouldnt be in a hospital ward. He would be in a morgue.
The memory of Tyrones swift decision to turn the wheel at the critical moment flashed in her mind.
Her father had done it for her sake.
But Tyrone
Did he realize the potential of a more severe accident ending his life?
Sabrina, you still have feelings for me, dont you? Tyrone asked, hope glimmering in his eyes.

Sabrinas actions had given him a renewed sense of hope.
Dont overthink it. You took a hit because you were protecting me. I just feel like I have a debt to repay. Sabrina Lowered her gaze as she spoke.
She didnt express her actual concern for him.
ALL she stated was her feeling of indebtedness.
There was a considerable distinction here.
Caring implied harboring feelings.
Tyrones gaze lost its shine. Arent you curious why I stepped in to saved you?
In that perilous scenario, he had no time to think about his own safety. Instinctively, he turned the wheel, hoping to keep her from harm.
Regardless of your reason for protecting me, I should thank you.
Sabrina stared at him earnestly.
If he was prepared to risk his life for her, she was willing to offer the same in return.
Should Tyrone find himself in danger one day, Sabrina would sacrifice her life for his. However, trust and love were no longer possible for her.
Her expression of thanks felt Like a slap in the face to him.
