Chapter Ninety-Seven: Forever Starts NowMiracle's POVI woke up to the sound of something beeping, I inhaled and I smelled nothing but disinfectant and alcohol. I knew the word, but for some strange reason, I couldn't pinpoint it.I groaned when a wave of pain hit me. It started from my brain and it felt like my skull was cut open, then it spread all over my body. Everything feels sore. Like I hadn't moved in a long time, especially my back. I panicked when I felt something on my face and reached out to remove it even if my hands felt weak. It's helping me breathe, but right now, I feel suffocated. When I removed it, I heaved a breath and panted harshly while looking around. Where am I? What am I doing here? I swallowed and winced because my throat felt like sandpaper. I tried to sit, but there were a lot of things attached to my hands and body. There was no one in the empty room beside me, and it didn't help that the room felt depressing aside from a vase filled with red roses, b
Chapter Ninety-Six: A Wonderful SurpriseHawkins' POVMy eyes never left her. It might sound creepy, but my eyes followed her wherever she goes and whoever she talks to. My blood boils whenever a man looks at her the wrong way and I wanted to stake my claim, but that is just inappropriate, so I can only clench my fists and the girls beside me helped me hold my jealousy in. After greeting everyone, Beth let the waiters serve the food. We both worked on the service and chose Miracle's favorite dishes. I thought her taste might have changed, considering she lost her memory, but to my surprise and happiness, her tastes remain the same. She looked so adorable. She was like a little kid all over again as she tried every dish on the table. "It's sad that she can't remember us, but it's okay because she came back to us. She's cured, isn't she, Hawk? We won't lose her, right?" Anna said beside me, causing me to look away from my wife for a second to look at her."Doc Zach said the procedure
Chapter Ninety-Five: AmnesiaHawkins' POVThree months pass by agonizingly slowly for everyone, especially to Blythe and I. The whole family and I stayed in New Zealand until Zach declared that the operation was a success, and Miracle is set to undergo medication next. He allowed me to see her one more time while she's still asleep and told us that we are now forbidden to see her. He promised to keep me updated about my wife's progress and healing, and we went back home. The thought of not seeing her for three months was hard, but the thought of her being cured from the disease made it easier. What's three months when I waited for her for years? A day after she woke up, Zach called me and informed me that Miracle did in fact, lose her memory, but he couldn't tell yet if it's temporary or permanent. The news saddened me, especially whenever I look at our son. I was filled with 'what ifs', but then my family cheered me up and told me to stop thinking negatively. After all, I promised
Chapter Ninety-Four: A Miracle for MiracleHawkins' POVThe moment Zach Montgomery himself contacted me saying he's willing to help us, Miracle and I flew the next day, and we left our son in my parents' care. Everyone originally wanted to go with us, but I didn't want to overwhelm the doctor. It was shocking enough that he reached out, and it's even more shocking that he chose us among the other patients. "Nervous?" I asked Miracle who was looking out the window. She slowly turned to me and her answer was written all over her face. "Nervous, scared and yet I feel excited as well, Hawk, but I don't want to get my hopes up yet."I smiled and squeezed her hand. "That is normal, love, but I feel positive about this one." She let out a shaky breath. "I really hope it's good news."She leaned her head on my chest and I kissed the crown of her head. We looked at the sky together and I really hope that what's waiting for us is a miracle. When the jet landed in New Zealand, we went straig
Chapter Ninety-Three: Let's Treasure This MomentMiracle's POVFor my date with my husband and son today, I made sure I looked beautiful. I showered, put on some lotion, put on makeup and wore a beautiful dress. The weight I've lost is noticeable, so I used a blazer to hide it. I didn't want Hawk to see me in this state and blame himself all over again. I know him enough to know that he's been blaming himself for not having enough power and influence to help me. But he didn't know that he had helped me enough. Just his presence, care and love are enough to help me get through this, and I am angry at myself for pushing away such an amazing man and wallowing in self-pity. Once I'm done, I picked up my bag and walked out of the room. Mom greeted me with a bright smile and my heart pounded in my chest when I saw Hawk standing a few steps away from her with his back turned to me. As if sensing me, he turned around and I instantly melted when I saw Blythe in his arms. "Mama!" My son scre
Chapter Ninety-Two: Creating Good Memories TogetherMiracle's POVIt has been a month since I let everyone know about my condition, and my health totally... collapsed. Aside from my condition, depression also ate me from inside out. The thought of leaving my loved ones behind, constantly questioning God why it had to be me, and the frustration of having to experience my worsening symptoms, were all too much to me and before I knew it, I shut everyone off. I started not eating, sleeping less, and I just stopped taking care of my body altogether. Whenever I look at myself in the mirror, I no longer recognize the skinny and unhealthy woman in front of me. It's like I was just waiting for my mind to give out and lose my mind. Can you blame me? I thought everything's finally moving in my favor. I thought I could finally be happy and Hawk and I will live together for a long time, but our love story didn't last long. God has taken what he temporarily gave me before I can enjoy it and left
