The Veracity Behind the Reality

Chapter 4.

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 the bed, "SO I have to spend these four to five days like this..."

"Nope, there are a  lot of things we can do."

"Like?"

"Like watching movies, and series and reading and drawing, paintings and these are all the things you love Bryan. You actually wanted to do these things, but you never had time, but now we can enjoy."

"Am I really good at these things?"

"Good? you are perfect, in fact, I learned all this from you."

"Then let's get started. I want to watch a movie."

"Wait, let me bring them all here."

"Come fast."

Ashley smiled and quickly went out. As soon as she came, outside she was met with Summer and Jason.

"Woah, I think everything is going fine now," Summer said

"Where are you going?" Jason asked.

"I am going to bring my laptop and some snacks. He can eat snacks, right?"

Jason and Amber looked at each other and smiled before Jason replied.

"A little Junk food is okay but not much."

Ashley ran towards her car and then ran back to Bryan's room and plugged the laptop in charging before placing it in front of Bryan and then she also arranged some food.

Bryan was more interested in the food rather than the movie. he was literally drooling and stretched his hand to take a bite but his hand was gently slapped by Ashley.

"Wait for me to sit as well, will you ?"

"Just one bite, please?"

"Just one."

Bryan smiled and picked a handful of chips before stuffing them in his mouth. Ashley, however, glared at him.

"It was just one bite," Bryan said with his mouth filled with the snack. Ashley sighed and pinched Bryan's nose; she couldn't stay mad at him for long.

"You sit here on my bed," Bryan said as he shifted towards the side, making space for Ashley.

Ashley didn't decline this offer at all and sat beside Bryan while being careful not to hurt his arm or something.

"Which movie are we watching?"

"Your favorite peter rabbit?"

Bryan nodded since he had no idea what kind of movie it was, but once the movie was played, Bryan knew why it was his favorite because it made him laugh like hell, making his stomach hurt.

And Bryan's laughter was really contagious because Ashley couldn't control her laughter as well

"Ow, ow," Bryan said while clutching his stomach and then placing a hand on his injured shoulder.

"What happened? Did you hurt yourself?"

"No, I didn't, I was just laughing too hard, that's why." Bryan said as he laid back, "Let's watch more movies, and can you bring some more food?"

"Doctor said that you can't eat too much junk food."

"Okay, got it."

And the rest of their time went by watching movies and laughing like idiots in each other's company.
