“I have a feeling that your elevator dislikes me,” Rebecca uttered as she walked into the office.Aria looked up and smiled. “Hey, sorry about that, there has been a little glitch but the handyman will be here to fix it shortly,” she replied as she stood up.“I don’t think it is a handyman’s job, Aria.” Rebecca laughed as she hugged her best friend.“Hehe… Yeah, sorry about that anyway… I wasn’t expecting you today, not like you aren’t welcome here at any time or something, it is just that you said you were going to the office today, Miss CEO?” Aria teased.Rebecca snarled and then chuckled. She hated being called that as it reminded her of all the work she had to do. “Yeah, I was supposed to be at the office like I told you yesterday, but something happened this morning and so I couldn’t make it,” she reported as she took a seat.“Really? Is everything fine?” Aria asked almost immediately.“Yeah, you can say that. It is Jimmy…”“What? Is he hurt? Did he get into an accident again? Di
“Boom!!” The collision of the three cars sent flames going up the sky, with a few more cars running into them, the black Bugatti went flying over the bridge, following it was a BMW and screams could be heard going up in a crescendo. It wasn’t a lovely scene at all, alarms blaring, people running around in panic.The birds who found comfort by the bridge rails all took off for their dear lives, people who were lucky to not get knocked over the rails jumped out of their cars and took to their heels.Parents running off with their children, let’s just say it was yet another dramatic morning in Las Vegas.** ** ** ** **“Do you know that our ancestors could move their ears front or back just like cats?” Aria asked while gently stroking the silky hairs of her brown furry friend.Rebecca furrowed her eyebrows; disbelief written all over her face. “That is a lie, I know where this is heading to and I want you to know ahead of time that I do not believe in human evolution,” she replied immedi
The Queen family got all the information that they needed about Triple J’s accident from the cops, including the name and address of the hospital where he had been allegedly taken to.Luckily, Mr. James Queen was in town when the incident occurred, he had headed straight to the hospital from his office and the other family members coincidentally arrived there at the same time.The Queen family hurried into the hospital and headed straight to the receptionist to ask for their son. It was one of the small local hospitals in the outskirts of the city. What was Jimmy even doing so far from home? He had only left hours ago Jimmy James Junior, or Triple J as he was fondly called is the first and only son of Mr. James Queen; one of the city's richest millionaires with the biggest wine producing company in Las Vegas.The Queen family was not just influential but one of the few millionaires with a legitimate source of income. As everyone knows Las Vegas is run by mostly gamblers and drug deal
The doctor succeeded at getting Jimmy to relax but he still didn’t remember anything, even after they showed him pictures of themselves together. The doctor tried to know his identity but he doesn’t remember any of that either, he can’t even say his name.The doctor had to run quick tests on him again and then he took Mr. Queen to his office to discuss with him. James was scared, he feared that the accident had resulted in a major damage to his son’s mental health and even though he tried to look confident, the fear of losing the family’s heir was very much visible on his face.“Sir, from the tests I conducted on him, it turns out that your son has suffered from a memory loss, he must have hit his head on something in the accident. I can’t say for sure what led to this condition but it was related to the accident because the little shift in his brain cells had occurred recently.”“Doctor, he was very much healthy this morning, and he still knew who I was, he still recognized his mothe
Jimmy walks into the major sitting room of the Queen Empire, they had just arrived home. The young man looked around but the place didn’t look familiar at all to him. He had been having small flashes of memories that disappeared shortly ever since he woke up but none of them had something to do with this house.The rest of the family were slowly following him behind, they had given him a little space to see if he would recognize the house but from the confusion on his face, they could tell that he remembered nothing.Aria walked up to him and intertwined their arms and fingers, he stared at her and she was glad that he didn’t panic. He hadn’t said a word to any of them since they left the hospital, but somehow she felt that wanted to be around her. She wouldn’t even come with them until she asked personally.You probably think it is normal because she is his fiancée after all but that isn’t the case. In fact, Aria is the last person that Jimmy would listen to. Yes, he was going to get
Aria climbs down the stairs slowly; she meets the rest of the family members downstairs. They were all seated in the sitting room with a worried expression on their face, Mr. James was still at home, aside from the fact that it was getting late already, he didn’t see the need to go to work while his son was unwell.“How is he doing?” Susan asked immediately she set her eyes on Aria, she got up from the couch and rushed to her future daughter-in-law.“He is fine, mom… I asked him to get some rest, so he is tucked into bed.” She answered.“Wait, he listened to you? Just like that?” Rebecca asked with a look of doubt on her face.“Yes, I was surprised as well. Is it just me or do you all notice the changes? I mean, he is different, so different that I doubt he is our Jimmy.” Aria blurted.“What are you talking about? Of course he is my son, can't you see that for yourself or did you also lose your memory?’ Susan queried.“No ma, it is not that. There are just these strange things since h
Aria watches Jimmy fall asleep, she is still surprised with what happened tonight at the Dining table. How on earth was Jimmy able to eat a lobster and not be in the hospital by now? She even had to feel the breath from his nostril to make sure that he was fine.She has known Jimmy for nearly six years and they have been engaged for six months, in all of that time, he has expressed his displeasure towards Lobsters relentlessly. The family still had it for dinner at times but they made sure to keep it far away from him, he wouldn’t even dare to look in the direction of it and sometimes, he wouldn’t have dinner with them because of it.Aria walked out and closed the door. She headed to the balcony on the second floor. That was her favorite spot in the building, it was not only calm and beautiful but had a nice view of the city.Aria dialed her father’s number the moment she was there, she had questions that she needed answers to, and since her father was a doctor, she expected to get th
“That is a sick haircut man, where did you get it?” Steve asked with his fake British accent which Aria found annoying by the way.Steve was Jimmy’s best friend and he had come around after hearing the news about the accident. It was still 10am and honestly, he would have been here as early as yesterday if he was in town.“Um… I don’t remember,” Jimmy replied with furrowed eyebrows. “You said you are who again?” he asked immediately.Rebecca almost choked on her laughter and they all stared at her in disappointment, she didn’t give a damn about what they thought of her, none of that did matter anyway, she was enjoying this.Steve turned back to Jimmy with an empathetic look on his face. “Oh man, this is so messed up. I never thought a day would come when you wouldn’t recognize me. I am Steve, your best friend, your buddy. I am sure you will laugh your ass out when this is all over and you learn that you actually forgot who I was.” Steve said and laughed.Jimmy also laughed nervously,
