Sophia reminded herself that this would only happen once in a lifetime.It wasn't every day that she'd meet Kirstine and go shopping with her.

After some time, Kirstine eventually suggested having dinner outside.

However, Sophia shook her head and refused.

She thought it was inappropriate to dine out while Fiona was busy fetching Emma from the kindergarten and driving her home.It was unfair for them.

"Maybe on another day? My friend is waiting for me at home" Sophia muttered.

"If it's your boyfriend, call him over.We are friends.It's not bad that we get to know each other, right?" Kirstine said with a smile.

"I'd love to, but he's not a boyfriend.She's a female friend of mine," Sophia quickly answered.

After she said it, she stepped towards the road's edge and raised her hand to stop a taxi.

She observed that the lighting on the street at night was poor, and the vehicle's headlights that kept passing by were so bright that people couldn't open their eyes if a car approached.

When Sophia realized a car was quickly coming, it was too late to avoid it.

Sophia automatically closed her eyes and waited for a few seconds.

The pain and impact she expected to feel because of the car didn't come; instead, Sophia felt that she was pulled over to the side.

In a flash, she fell on the road, dragged by the inertia of Kirstine’s hands.

The shopping bags were scattered across the ground while Sophia's world spun around her as she landed on a soft surface.

It belonged to Kirstine.It was her body.

Sophia's body pressed her down because Kirstine saved her subconsciously.

However, she was not able to avoid getting injured.She didn't even know that she was hurt.

It was only when Kirstine felt the pain in her entire right foot that she knew she seemed to twist her ankle when she fell to the ground.

Sophia quickly stood and pulled Kirstine up after hearing her muffled groan.

"How are you? Are you okay?"

she asked nervously.

Kirstine didn’t dare to step her right foot on the ground and just hopped with her left foot so she would not get more hurt.

"I'm fine.I just twisted my ankle; she said and winced in pain.Sophia heaved a sigh of relief when she heard it.She picked up the scattered shopping bags on the ground and helped Kirstine walk to the chair on the side.

"I'll call 911.Please, bear the pain for a while" she said in worry.

After Sophia helped her sit, she raised her hand to call for help.
