Chapter: The Hidden Trust

I moved slowly down the corridor my steps getting heavier as I went. Uncertainty permeated the air around me but I was unable to go back at this time. What was it about Fiona that made me feel so familiar? Why did I feel as though I knew her from somewhere else—somewhere beyond the surface of our shared life?This question had been circling around in my head all night. Despite Alexanders caution and all the evidence that it was a bad idea I started to walk in the direction of her room. I knew that I should have left and gone back to sleep but I was unable to do so. I needed to know.Whatever was dragging at my thoughts I had to find it. When I got to Fionas room I was hesitant. I could hear the faint hum of silence on the other side as the polished wood of the door reflected the soft glow of the hallway light.The hallway was deserted when I looked over my shoulder half expecting to see Alexander standing there observing me. I was by myself with my thoughts and the house was quiet. In

Chapter: Dissecting Ideas

I couldnt help but exhale as the car entered the driveway and slowed down. The day had been long with more uncertainty stress and unresolved issues than I wanted to remember. Right now all I wanted was to sleep and temporarily forget about Fiona and the unsettling feeling of familiarity that was still hovering over me like a shadow.Alexander held the door open for me as the car door opened and he got out his eye contact with me displaying his typical warmth. Although it didnt quite reach his eyes the faint smile that was on his face said a lot. It was now late and I was still exhausted from the day.My body was screaming for sleep especially as the weight of the unborn child inside of me increased. I put a hand to my stomach and felt the baby move uneasily.Alexander asked “Are you okay?” in a gentle worried tone. I didnt have to say anything out loud for him to know that something wasnt right with me.As his gaze strayed to my stomach I knew he was also experiencing uneasiness. I

Chapter: The Unspoken Memory

It seemed like an endless drive back to the mansion. My thoughts were anything but calm despite the cars constant hum being almost calming. I couldnt stop seeing pictures of Fiona's lifeless icy body.I couldnt get rid of the nagging sense of familiarity. Somewhere somehow I had seen her before but where? The question kept coming back to me like a never-ending tornado preventing me from sleeping.My thoughts kept returning to her no matter how hard I tried to concentrate on anything else. I had to keep it in mind. I needed to understand why everything felt so strange and where I knew her from. However it grew more elusive the harder I tried to remember it like a dream that vanished the moment I made an effort to understand it. I could sense Alexanders silence next to me. I could tell that something was bothering him too even though he hadnt spoken much since we left the hospital. Although he appeared to be distracted by the drive his eyes were focused on the road. A silent strain pe

Chapter: Disturbing Familiarity

I was unable to take my eyes off of Fiona. Something about her nagged at the back of my mind. Initially I believed it to be simply the similarity Alexander had described. However as I stood there staring at Fionas pallid face a deeper emotion awoke inside of me.It wasnt just how she appeared it was also how familiar she seemed. She must be someone Ive seen before. But where? Not in the mansion not here. not in the hospital at the moment. In an attempt to explain the persistent sensation in the back of my mind my thoughts were racing and colliding with one another. It was just out of reach like a piece of a puzzle.Although I was unable to recall I was aware that I had previously met her. My breath caught as my head started to throb a sudden intense pain behind my eyes. I tried to clear my head by wincing and applying pressure to my temples but the more I considered it the worse the pain got.The memory was as elusive as sand slipping through my fingers even after I forced myself to

Chapter: Hope and Despair

The weight of the world fell on me once more as soon as the elevator doors opened. I took a shallow breath to try to steady myself as the hospitals sterile cold air seemed to press in on me.Despite Avas quiet but reassuring presence at my side I was only able to concentrate on the fear that was tearing at my chest. I was surprised when the doctor who had been waiting at Fionas room entrance called us into a different room.This room was more clinical colder and surrounded Fionas motionless body with a few more monitors and beeping devices. As we entered the door clicked softly behind us and my gaze instantly landed on her. Still unconscious Fiona lay in bed still connected to a system of machines that hummed softly all around her.She was more lifeless than I had ever seen her and her skin was ghostly pale. The room seemed to be so still that everything around us seemed to be absorbed. She was constantly reminded of her vulnerability by the machines around her. With the use of a vent

Chapter: The Troublesome Call

I instantly got to my feet my heart pounding as the phone echoed in my palm. There was no space for doubt because the voice on the other end was clear and urgent. The doctor spoke quickly and bluntly and I could feel the weight of his words pressing down on my chest. “Mr. Navarro” the doctor said in a clipped voice “ You must come to the hospital right away. The situation is urgent.”The line went dead before I had a chance to ask any questions. There was an empty echo in my ear as the call ended just as suddenly as it had begun. Panic threatened to take hold and my heart skipped a beat. I didnt know what was going on but I knew it couldnt be good. A problem existed. I had to be there because of something that had happened. As I turned to face Ava who was still standing in front of me I noticed that her eyes were wide with interest and that her expression had changed to one that was more worried.I spoke without thinking and even I could hear the urgency in my voice. “Its the docto
