FLASHES.A woman's voice screaming at her. A burning smell. A shattered glass. The touch of cold metal around her wrists. A scream, but it was her own scream. And then came Lucious's face. It was dark and furious, yelling at someone behind her.She could still hear his voice, not knowing what she was going through, he tries to explain better, what he had been saying for the next minute, but the scream she had heard before, inside her head, had to come out.She gasped and clutched her head.Lucious stopped talking and rushed to her side."Lauren, are you okay? He asked frantically searching her for injuries, as though he hadn't been with her."I saw something. Someone. I remember.... She winced. Lucious wanted to know what she remembered. He wanted to explain, that is, if she remembers him in a negative way again, but she held him too."I saw someone. A woman, she called me a liar, she said I ruined everything, and then she slapped me there times on my right cheek".Lucious gently tou
Maybe she didn't really remember whom she is, but the fact that she had called her mother, and Lucious confirmed it, she felt the first real calm she had experienced in days.Though she still feels a little strange around her, Mrs Fonder's heartbeat was familiar. It was steady, grounding and warm.It was strange, yet comforting.She didn't remember this woman, in the ways, memories are supposed to work, but her body remembered her.Her heart remembered her. And that was okay for her.Holding her close was almost enough for her entire body to receive healing."I'm here now", Mrs Fonder whispered into her ear, as though she had heard Lauren's silent fears. "I won't leave you again". She added, and Lauren increased the hug from there. Holding her close as though her life depended on it.Lucious looked on for another minute, and it felt as though he was intruding. He had planned for the both of them to meet, to help them, but now, he feels like a stranger in their midst, he decided to giv
Lauren wanted to have a long talk with Lucious, but somehow, she was feeling unsure, uncertain and really scared, like he is the devil himself.she have heard him call his guards to get things done, to deal with someone, she even heard him say, the Lady will not come out of his prison the same, that she will wish she was dead.She heard him say I about a Cynthia girl. The name seem to be ringing a really loud bell in her ears, but she couldn't tell what the bell is for.She should avoid this man, and even the Cynthia he had mentioned, but something was of."Why was she scared of Cynthia?She doesn't even know this Cynthia, yet, just the mere mention of her name, is scaring her?Was Cynthia married to Lucious and she came in, and then, Cynthia got angry and tried to hurt her?Was she the one married to Lucious like every other person have been saying and then Cynthia is trying to take Lucious from her?Why was Lucious apologizing, what is he sorry for, and why is he so angry with Cynt
Lucious got up in shock.He had been speaking to her, but he didn't bother looking at her face.He had been too ashamed, saying the things he was saying, that he didn't know she had already awaken, and was listening to him."How long have you been listening to me?He asked, getting up from his seat."Long enough to know I have a daughter, who have been asleep what a while and you were hoping she wakes up and now she is awake and the first thing she remembers about you is how cruelly you treated her". Mrs Fonder spoke with authority and audacity, as though she had never been on treatment."I am sorry".Was all Lucious could say.No one was on his side.From what he could gather, he is alone, and he has to fight this fight alone.He couldn't completely blame himself, he blames Cynthia.Yes Cynthia. It is her fault that all this happened.It was her involvement that caused Mrs Fonder to be traumatized in the first place.If she hadn't abducted her, she wouldn't have to go back to her ho
Lauren was thinking she had already given birth to the baby, but then she looked at the face of Pamela, and followed where her eyes was looking.Her stomach."You are pregnant Lauren, for your husband Lucious". Lauren turned to look at the strange face again, and this time, she got a flash, but what she was seeing was different from what she is looking at now.She closed her eyes, locked it tight, and when she opened her eyes, she stared in Lucious 's eyes and says. "It was you, I saw you just now". Every one looked happy, as she seem to be regaining her memory, but then she says."You slapped me".Lucious opened his eyes wide.Why does she have to remember something so mean? She have gone back to when they started, which means, before she will get to where they are now, things would have gone really bad. Lucious was worried.He tries to explain, he wanted her to ignore such memory, but Lauren shook her head and looked away."What's your name? she asked."Pamela". Came the quick re
Voices echoed like waves crashing against rocks. It was too loud, too distant, all at once. Lauren blinked against the brightness above her, the sterile ceiling slowly coming into focus. Every sound around her felt muffled like her head was stuffed with cotton or something harder, that she couldn't move.She tries to look around but her head just couldn't move, but she opened her eyes, and tries to raise her hand to touch her head, as her head was spinning like she was turning around.She managed to open her eyes and the faces there were faces, where one if then looked close, too close, holding something that flashed in her eyes, and she flinched, causing the main man to back off."Pupils responsive", someone said."Pupils? Her eyes drifted to the side, luckily, nothing held her back, she was able to move her head to the side of the familiar voice.There was a man standing near the door. He wasn't in scrubs. He wasn't holding any medical equipment. But he was watching her, like she wa
