Rude Customer

Rex took a step forward to close the distance and touched her shoulder. "The life of the young boy you saved seven years ago." 

He watched her try to remember with great difficulty. 

"I can't seem to–" 

"A boy who was riding a bike and got hit by a bullet and–"

"That ghastly accident?!" She almost screamed.

Rex nodded. 

"That was you?!" 

He nodded again and asked, "So, do you still think that you don't deserve everything you're getting right now?" 

"No," she shook her head. "You've given me more than enough." A line of tears slowly dropped on her cheeks. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. 

So all this while, he was only repaying her for what she subconsciously did seven years ago. She thought it was because he had fleeting emotions for her in the past. 

"My life is worth more than all the wealth in the Country, so what I've given you is never equivalent to saving my life." Rex patted her shoulder.
