It was Friday, the last workday.
Ashley and I had decided to go to the amusement park on Saturday, which was tomorrow, and rest on Sunday.
While Ashley was at her work, I had come out to shop for groceries, since I had no car and the grocery store was quite far. I took a cab.
Noah was with me as well, blabbering.
He was a very cheerful kid with him, not a moment goes silently; he is always chatting, like a chatterbox.
I can only smile, I can't interact with him freely and he knew that as well, otherwise, people would consider me mad.
We soon reached the grocery store. I paid the cab driver and walked inside the store, picked up a shopping cart, and got to work.
At first, I just roamed around. I bought vegetables and some spices, some beverages, some snacks as well.
I also bought a large bar of dark chocolate as well. I just wanted to eat it the moment I saw it. It looks like I love dark chocolate even though I don't have
Amber was a good and friendly person. I enjoyed her company a lot as well as sitting in a cafe."Oh well, Bryan,""Hmm," I said as I took a sip from my cold chocolate shake"Do you always wander around with ghosts lingering around you?"I choked on the shake and started coughing. "What?""Oh sorry," Amber said and handed me a handkerchief"You can see me?" Noah said, and I had the same question.Amber smiled and said, "Of course, I can. I can see you from the very start."I looked at Noah, and he looked back at me."Well, you look shocked," Amber said"Of course I am," I said. "Are you also an exorcist or something?""I am a mage.""What's that?""In simple words, a magician, you know I cast spells and all.""Oh, I see.""Woah, you are a magician?" Noah said, and Amber nodded."Anyway, you didn't answer"I told Amber everything about Noah and he seemed sorry f
The night was dark, as dark as the abyss.The ground seemed ready to swallow the feet which ran on it.The trees and the bushes were like a barrier and slowed down his speed as he ran and ran.His body was drenched with sweat, his eyes had tears and his body had bruises.He could see a light coming from the front, and his heartbeat quickened once he saw that. He ran even faster and eventually came in front of a house.A house engulfed in flames of forest spreading its heat to the man who felt burned and his heart crushed.He collapsed to the ground once he saw the flames and started crying bitterly.After crying for some time, he got up and took out his phone and was about to call someone and in this state of Frenzy, the man didn't hear the footsteps from behind him since his ears were occupied by the burning flames.But he felt.He felt immense pain in his body and blood oozed out of his shoulder.He was sh
"You are my what?" Bryan asked, with wide eyes."Girl- Friend, G-I-R-L...""Stop, I got it," Bryan said while Ashley slowly came in his direction and sat down on the stool placed beside Bryan's bed."You...um... don't remember anything?"Bryan sighed, "No I do and I am just pretending to forget everything because I am mad and I am enjoying it."Ashley chuckled."Why are you chuckling didn't you say I am your boyfriend, shouldn't you be sad that I am in this condition?"Ashley stopped chuckling but still, there was a small smile on her face and her eyes were glittering, which for some reason made Bryan's heart skip a beat."I am sad that you are in this condition, but more than that I am glad that you are alive," Ashley said with a smiling and earnest expression.Bryan cleared his throat and said, "Okay so tell me something about me.""Oh yeah, so your name is Bryan and you are my boyfriend, and you are 29 about to
"What happened to him Doc?" Ashley asked as she sat in front of the doctor. The doctor who was Ashley's old friend sighed, "Ashley, there is a head injury on his head and the memory loss is the side effect." "Any idea when will his memory come back" "Can't say. It should be back in a few days because the head injury is not serious." Ashley nodded. "I got it. Thanks for the help, Jason." "Anytime." Jason smiled and watched Ashley go before sighing and laying back in his seat. "So he lost his memory, huh?" another person asked, making Ashley halt. "Yes, he did." Ashley looked at the ground. Her face had no expression but still, her fists were clenched in her jaws were gritted. The other woman looked down as well. "How do you feel?" Ashley shook her head, "I don't know Summer, all I know is that he is with me, in front of me, and even if he does not remember me it's fine as long as he smiles at me, as long as he ta
Bryan was speechless as he stared at Ashley, who was sitting quietly on the stool beside Bryan's bed.Bryan cleared his throat. "Didn't you say that you will create fresh memories with me?"Ashley looked at Bryan.Bryan continues, "So if you are going to make fresh memories with me, then you can also make me fall in love with you again, right? Unless you get bored with me and abandon me? I mean, who would like to stay with me who has no memory of his past?"Ashley smiled again. "You are still you."Whatever that was supposed to mean, Bryan didn't know, but all he knew was that Ashley finally smiled and she didn't look depressed anymore.Ashley got up from her place. "Do you want to do something?""Do what?""Aren't you bored or something?""I am. There is nothing I can do with this injured body...Did the doctor tell you how many days I have to stay here?""Four to five days."Bryan sighed and laid back on t
Ashley slowly closed the laptop when she noticed Bryan Was asleep. She gently got down from the bed, making sure not to disturb Bryan."Is he asleep?" Jason asked once he came inside the room and glanced at Bryan."Yeah, he is.""That's okay...I am just here to check his blood pressure and all.""Go ahead.""Hmm...everything seems to be normal, for now”"That's great." Ashley said,” tell me about his schedule. I will take care of it.""Ashley, there are nurses...""I know, but please, I want to take care of him and it's only for four to five days, right?"Jason nodded and tapped Ashley's shoulder. "you have to take care of yourself as well..."Ashley glanced at Jason and nodded. "I know."Jason looked at Bryan With an unreadable expression, "Ashley...""Yes..." Ashley said.Jason glanced at Bryan's sleeping face and then at Ashley, who stood with clenched fists staring at the
"What were you thinking going out there all alone? Have you gone mad?""Maybe I have," Bryan said as he leaned back on his bed."Bryan I am already pissed. Please don't test my patience.""Ashley, can my injury cause me to hallucinate as well?"Ashley was quiet for a moment before speaking again. "I don't know, I'll ask your doctor."Ashley sat on the edge of Bryan's bed. "What happened there?"Bryan Looked at Ashley and told her everything. He thought that Ashley will laugh at him or dismiss this matter. He was sure that Ashley will not believe him but to his surprise, Ashley just nodded in the end."It's late, and you have been through a lot, you should go back to sleep now.""Wait!" Brian Said and grabbed Ashley's hand, "Do you believe me?"Ashley took Bryan's hand into her own and said while looking into his eyes, "Of course I do, I believe that you saw something there but now you tell me do you believe that it was y
"Wow, I feel so refreshed now. Thanks for the help, Ashley," Bryan said as he sat on his bed shirtless. He was only wearing his pants."Now wear your shirt," Ashley said as she helped Bryan to wear his shirt."I'll get your breakfast and then you need your medicine."Bryan smiled and stared at Ashley, who at first didn't seem to mind but after some time she asked, "What?""Aren't you tired?" Bryan asked quietly. "You have been constantly taking care of me, and not even once I have seen you taking a rest."Ashley smiled gently, "because I don't rest in front of you.""The dark circles under your eyes say something else."Ashley sighed, "They are nothing, it's just I have a lot of work nowadays so...""And on top of that, you have me, a burden."Ashley sat beside Bryan. "You are a precious burden. No one takes care of a burden as I do. If you were really trouble, I wouldn't have been here with you.""I am glad you a
