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
Chapter Ninety-One: Everything I OwnHawkins' POVImagine the horror I felt when I woke up from a nap and my wife was no longer beside me. It didn't help that I had just a bad dream about losing her. In my dream, she was slowly drifting apart, letting go of my hand and vanishing with the wind. The hardest part was me slowly forgetting about her when she left, and I didn't want that to happen. The thought of forgetting about the Miracle hurt so badly that I wanted to die. "Miracle? Love?" I called out, hoping she's just around, but when I saw her things gone, I knew she did what she said she would and left us. Panic sat in and I handed my son to Leila, kissing his head and rubbing his cheek. "Daddy will come back with Mommy, hmm? Leila, try to divert his attention away from us. We'll be back as soon as we can." I asked my trusted helper and she nodded while rocking Blythe back and forth. I ran to the car where Jim was already waiting. "To her mother's house, Jim. Drive fast please."
Chapter Ninety: When I'm GoneMiracle's POVDespite Hawk pleading me to reconsider my decision, I stood my ground and remained unfazed. Although it will kill me to be away from them, I also know that it is the best thing to do before I hurt either of them. The last thing I wanted to do was to inflict any harm on my husband and son. That night, I packed my bag and I cried in between doing it. I locked the door so Hawk couldn't stop me and I could hear him pounding on the door and asking me to stop. What happened kept repeating in my mind and I also repeatedly blamed myself. I ended up hurting the one person I never wanted to hurt. When my bags were packed, I slept on my own, curled up and cried until I eventually fell asleep. When I woke up, Hawk was beside me and he was holding our son as he slept. Of course he will use the duplicate key to check on me. My eyes filled with tears while looking at them, knowing I couldn't stay with them anymore. I want to reach out and take Blythe in
