As soon as I drove my little red car out of the hospital gate,I rear-ended a car at the first traffic light on the main road.
I rear-ended a police car.Fortunately,it wasn't serious.Only the rear of the car was slightly deformed,and it probably didn't hurt anyone.
If I had hurt a police officer,I didn't dare to imagine the consequences.
Zachary's face flashed through my mind,and then Ryan's face flashed through as well.
I shook my head vigorously to clear my mind.
Soon,two police officers got out of the police car.
The traffic police also came up to me within a few seconds.
They knocked on my car door.
"Get out.You rear-ended a car right under my nose.I watched you hit it.I didn't even have time to warn you."
While I was getting out of the car,the two police officers and the traffic police started chatting.
The traffic on the main road was heavy,and the traffic police quickly determined the liability for the accident.
The situation was clear,and there was nothing much to discuss.
Looking at their police uniforms,I could only keep apologizing.
I knew that my eyes were red.
I wanted to cry,but I held back.
"Miss,do you want to go through insurance or handle it in some other way?If you want to go through insurance,do you need to take a few photos of the scene?"
The two police officers probably noticed that I was in a daze.
One of the taller police officers had a quiet conversation with the other police officer.
The other police officer drove the police car away.
The taller police officer greeted the traffic police and then got into my car.He also motioned for me to get in.
"Miss,get in the car quickly.Let's restore normal traffic first."
I quickly got into the passenger seat.
"Address?"
I reported the address of the community where I rented the house.
He raised his eyebrows,"You live in the same community as me?"
"What a coincidence."
"It's not a coincidence.The police station is near this community.More than half of my colleagues live in that community.I'm already off work,and it's on my way to drive your car back.You're not in a state to drive right now."
"Thank you,thank you so much."
"You're welcome.My name is Leo,Leo with an'o'.Just call me Leo."
"My name is Fiona,Fiona with an'a'."
The accident was handled smoothly.I followed all the instructions obediently throughout the process.Since the police saw that I had a good attitude of admitting my mistake,they didn't make things difficult for me.
I also exchanged WeChat with Leo.
He helped me take photos of the accident scene and also negotiated with the insurance company on my behalf.
Later,I found an opportunity to invite him to dinner.
During the meal,I asked him if all police officers were so attentive and made people feel so secure.
He raised his eyebrows,and his slightly proud look was kind of cute.
