DEENA'S POV

"Did you save him just so you can kill him?!" Leonora exclaimed emotionally and I did not utter any response, understanding that she was just upset and worried about her son.

"Mom, please. Calm down, will you?" Drake, Trenton's older brother grabbed his mother to calm her down while Jake, the youngest Outlaw, approached me.

"I'm sorry about that, Deena. Are you alright?"

I shook my head gently and gave him a small smile. "I'm fine."

"Deena, what exactly happened to my son? Why is he in this state?" Hudson, Trent's father asked. He looked calm, but I could see his worried eyes brimming with tears as he looked at his son.

"I... He was at the bar where my friends and I were and he was already drunk. He wanted to talk to me, but I made it clear to him that we have nothing to talk about. He left and I didn't think that he'd drive in that state, Hudson. Trent was never that irresponsible. I-I'm sorry."

"Why are you sorry? Trent knew better than to drive under the influence o

    DEENA'S POV"One date and you became the talk of the town, Dee. A lot of speculations are going around about you and Alexander." Cassie chuckled and showed me an app where my name is currently trending, and I only turned my face slightly because my hair was getting styled for today's shoot."Won't it affect the movie badly? I mean, we've only filmed three scenes. You know how possessive fans can be." Jane voiced her concern and I pursed my lips to think. I've been in a lot of dating scandals, but none of them were real because they knew I was married or in a relationship, but it's different this time because everyone knows I'm single. "I don't think so. I mean, Alexander has always been vocal about his crush on Deena, so it shouldn't come as a surprise. Plus, I think it will help us with the promotion of the movie." "How's the date anyway?" Jane asked the moment the makeup artist stepped out of my tent. My eyes shifted from Jane to Cassie who were both waiting for my response. "He

    TRENTON'S POV"Mom, I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me. I'm twenty-eight now, aren't I?" "Have you been in contact with Deena lately? You have Denise now, don't you? Stay away from her and don't talk to her anymore." I groaned softly in frustration and ran my hand down my face. "Mom, you've been saying that since I came out of the hospital. Isn't she your daughter-in-law once? You're acting like she's some criminal." "Trent, I'm just worried about you. I'm worried that you'll remember and..." She trailed off and I proceeded to sign the document I was reading."And?" I pressed, waiting for her to complete her sentence in mild interest because I know she's hiding something. "Nothing. Just do what I say, okay? Anyway, I don't think she'll bother you and Denise. I visited her house the other day and she had a date with someone else." My fingers on the paper paused and my hold on the phone tightened a little. She was what? "Maybe it's the best for you two. You're happy with D

    DEENA'S POV"Mom's happy that you chose to socialize and even go on a date instead of crying in a corner." My Mom said behind me while watching me prepare for my dinner date with Alexander. "I guess I got used to the constant disappointment and heartbreak I have experienced from the moment I met Trent, Mom. I figured there would be no use of me wallowing in self-pity. Besides, I have you, Rosie and my friends to support me." I finished my look with a setting spray and turned to look at my mother while gesturing to my outfit and makeup."How do I look, Mom?" "Perfect as always, sweetheart." She kissed my cheek and held my arms. "You have a smile on your face, but your eyes can't lie, Deena. Hopefully, this new guy can bring back the light in them." "Too soon for that, Mom. We'll just get to know each other and maybe help each other with the script." I pulled out of her arms to go into my walk-in closet and chose a pair of silver flats to match my white satin dress. "A mother can a

    DEENA'S POV"What the hell was that, Dee?" Ethan angrily asked me the moment he went back to the table. "You said he had amnesia, but you didn't tell me he had a freaking girlfriend! Does he have any idea what he's doing? He might have forgotten you, but has he gone stupid?" "Calm down, Eth," I asked him and looked around to make sure no one was listening. I dragged him away from the others so I could talk to him alone. "I... I had no idea they got back together. All I knew was that she was his first girlfriend who came back home after so many years." Ethan gave me a look that is a mixture of shock, anger and empathy. "Damn it, Dee. And I thought things would be fine between you two once he regained consciousness." I blinked back the tears from my eyes and showed him a smile, even when I was dying inside. I have only found out that they were back together tonight, and God, it was hard to act like everything's fine and that it's not killing me inside. The whole night, I resisted th

    TRENTON'S POVI was in a coma for half a year. Fuck, my body was all skin and bones. I have a lot to catch up with. One thing that never changed is my fashion, my aftershave, cologne and everything else. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I was impressed by how my age didn't affect my face. In fact, I could confidently say that my features have sharpened. I had the time to explore my house after working the whole day. I have met all the people I need to meet and they were informed of my condition. Thankfully, most of them have been working for me since I started the company. One particular room was locked and it intrigued me. Unfortunately, I couldn't open it no matter how I tried so I had someone remove the code. Why would I need to lock a room in my house?Inside, I found some photos of Deena and I am guessing the clothes, shoes and bags were hers, too. I was speechless when I noticed that some of them were new."Don't tell me I was so obsessed with her even after divorce tha

I was stuck in the same cycle for God knows how long and it felt like I kept dying and all over again. It hurts like hell. It felt like my whole body would explode and my ears were ringing. I had no voice and I couldn't see anything but water.I could hear distinct voices but I couldn't make out the words they were saying. When I thought of just giving up, one voice finally reached my consciousness. A familiar voice that I couldn't remember who it belonged to. I just know that her voice gave me the will to fight again. Her voice moved me from the place I was stuck to. It gave me the strength to move my limbs to swim up. It gave me the inspiration to live again.I struggled and it hurt so much, but I kept pushing myself to resurface.
