The man looked honest and his hands were full of calluses. The color of his clothes had faded and his motorcycle looked worn but he wore a shiny silver ring on his finger. One could know from a single look that he took very good care of it, seemingly a wedding ring.

Somehow, Frederick had a good feeling towards him, therefore he said, "It's fine, you may leave! Ride slower next time!"

If something happened, a family would be ruined.

"Aye, thank you, Sir!"

The man nodded and bowed. Then, he tinkered around his motorcycle, packed his things and left.

Danica tugged at his sleeves. "Frederick! You're really cold on the outside but kind on the inside. He almost crashed into you! You were still so polite to him! I'm getting mad!

"It's fine, we weren't hurt anyway. It wasn't easy for him either. Thanks for looking out for me, Danica."

He organized his thoughts. At this moment, his mood was completely different from earlier.

A woman he once loved had still cared about him when it counted. She protected him with her life. Although it was just a small act, it meant a lot to him.

"Why do you thank me like we're not close? What were you thinking about so deeply? You didn't even dodge such a huge motorcycle."

Frederick felt his heart squeeze. He was distracted, thinking about another heartless woman again. Smiling, his troubled heart had seemed to find its way.

"I was thinking about Chet. I skipped work early today. He would be making a scene in my office tomorrow!"

The innocent Chet, on the other side, was busy to the neck looking through documents while sneezing.

"Ha, two pieces of ice could really melt each other! Carson had used to say that Chet was like your shadow; you two were exactly the same." Danica laughed. As they talked and laughed, the air around them had changed too.
