Kevin was all set with the procedures the young lady had asked him to follow, but he paused at the part when she asked him about the time he would be traveling. She asked for his whereabouts and he couldn't talk. Instead, he had told her that he would like to talk to her. He was on his way to the hospital, the cold wind prickling his skin. His mother would not be happy with him if he went ahead of his decision without involving her, and he knew that much. Once he arrived, he was greeted by some of the staff of the hospital, then they directed him to the new room where his mother had been moved to since he was still struggling with getting the location. Soon, he was seated next to his mom, "hello beautiful," he said to her and the gray-haired woman smiled. She was beautiful with two dimples crinkling as she smiled. Her eyes were bright and filled with life once again. "Kevin, how are you?" She asked him, and he smiled back. "I'm fine mom, I see you are as well." "I am. Honestly,
"Alright then, I will be sure to contact you later," Manuel said on the phone to a business partner. "Alright then. Thank you very much." Then he hung up. Drawing a heavy sigh, he threw the phone across the bed and bloodshot red eyes stared into nothingness. He was cooking up a new plan, a selfish one at that. Evelyn could always tell. "Is everything okay?" She decided to ask, even when she knew clearly that he wouldn't even give much of an audience to her. Manuel had been acting strange for some time now. It was true that he got accepted as a member of the Dragons not too long ago, barely two weeks ago. After all those long years of pleading. But that was certainly not enough reason for him to have grown cold to her and everyone around. It was certainly not a reason to act cold at all to her. She had stood by his side all those weeks now, and what was he rewarding her with? Silence and awkward behaviors.Manuel stared and nearly jumped out of his skin. "You're still here?" He asked
Doris remembered what her mother had come to tell her the day before, and just how disheartening it had been.Amidst everything that was happening, she had the nerves to walk up to her, saying that she should marry someone else!Her mother would not be the end of her. She hoped that much. Always greedy with selfish things that benefited only her!She had not even noticed when a hand moved close to hers and until she felt a warm touch before she paused to check what was happening. Nathan's eyes were opened... Nathan's eyes were opened!"Doctor!" was the first thing that came to her mind to scream. She called for attention of the professionals immediately and they rushed in to check up on him. He stared lazily at them hoping he would get a memory of either of them, but nothing. The only faint memory of someone familiar being in the room was that of the young woman with long brown hair. He stared softly into her familiar brown eyes, and instantly knew that she had been so much from his
For the next few days, Nathan and to remain with the young lady beside him who called herself Doris. What interested him the more was the fact that she called herself his wife.He had been married?"Thanks for always being here with me," he said calmly to her, and she smiled in return."Anything." Doris said to him, then returned to the files of documents she had been filling.She had mentioned that they were files for his discharge. Of course he hadn't thought about it, but he would have to leave with her if truly she had been his wife! A feeling of uneasiness began to settle in his stomach.She smiled so calmly and when she spoke, she ordered the aura of confidence around. She was exactly the type of person he would be drawn to, he couldn't argue that much."So I get to leave here today?" Nathan asked, feeling bad for having to disturb her with his redundant question. The young lady replied him nonetheless. "Yes Nathan, we get to leave today." her eyes lit up in excitement, and for
Fernando and Evelyn sat opposite to each other, the old man's eyes placed on her face. "This is such a critical matter if you ask me." He said, his brows ceasing. Evelyn's brows arched up, "critical? For now, he doesn't remember his own identity!" "Yes but his wife is with him. Although I haven't heard of Tori, his close secretary being with him yet, but I'm still worried. Do you think your daughter knew about his identity at all in the first place?" Fernando ask and watched Evelyn shook her head slightly. "You gave to be certain, woman!""I am certain. Doris would certainly meet me, she would have asked me silly questions. I know that much. Besides, Nathan only hinted me on this a few days ago before his accident. It can only mean one thing. He probably just regained his memory, don't you think?" Fernando frowned. "I don't know, Evelyn. But we must find out soon. Things cannot go haywire, not now after it has only just gotten settled. Make your proper research, give me feedback."
"What are you talking about mother, father?" Owen asked again, stepping further closer. They were only staring like they'd just seen a ghost. "Why isn't any one of you talking?" Evelyn suddenly thought of what to do next. Then she acted like the normal way she would whenever she was being just herself. "What are you doing here, shouldn't you be at your sister's?" She frowned.Owen wasn't buying her lies. "Answer me first." He demanded. "What were you busy talking about?" Thomas stepped forward. "Well it must be none of your business then, don't you think?" Evelyn frowned. "Oh come on now, Thomas. No need to act all formal. We were discussing nothing serious, Owen. Really." She said, a fake smile following. "Now hurry up and be by your sister side, okay?" Owen gave them one last glare before turning to the direction of his room. He knew they were up to something and it must be something no good. He couldn't find out just yet, but sooner or later, he would their secret. At the mom
After Owen had left, Nathan decided to ask Doris some questions. He was certainly confused and needed to understand a whole lot of things. They were both seated in the living room now. "Hey uh, there's a lot of doubts on my mind now." He began to say but suspended his words first, "but then, we need to understand your mother first. With what Owen said, you do know that there's a possibility that he might be right?" Doris sighed. "Well he's not wrong actually. While we were at the hospital, my mother came to meet me. She said that there was almost no way that you would recover, and that I should say my goodbyes already and come marry from a richer family. She's crazy, I know." Nathan suddenly had a glimpse memory of the woman named Evelyn, but when he saw her, he instantly knew he detested her. But why? Well, asides everything his wife had just pointed out, there was some other important reasons why he hated this woman. "So that is her next plan now, is that it?" He asked, then fro
Evelyn had been looking for a way to show up to face her daughter, and after the silly behavior of her son, Owen, she decided to grab the opportunity to visit her dearest daughter. Owen had spilled to her that even though their crazy in law had lost his memories, he was still as annoying as ever. That particular fact made Evelyn decide to quickly look into things and fast. With Nathan's arrogance and pride, he could be in another trouble, and by then, Fernando wouldn't even spare Doris in the process!She gave a slight knock on the door, and waited patiently for a reply. She had at least given Doris the privilege of pre-announcement, telling her hours ago that she would be visiting so they must have been expecting her already. Doris and Nathan stared at each other, knowing fully well that Evelyn would be the one at the door. What surprised them however was how gentle she had been with the knock. Normally she would have banged on the doors like she wanted to break them down. "You kn
