In the confusion, pieces of memories began to flash through his mind: Dinda's presence in the back seat, her soft voice as he fell asleep, and then... a very loud crash. With difficulty, he opened his eyes and tried to adjust to his surroundings. The room was dimly visible, surrounded by shadows and dim light. Anxiety gnawed at him, and he tried to remember what happened before he woke up. Memories of Dinda's smile, their laughter on the trip, and the beautiful moments that now felt distant and painful.
