Judith's POV

Einstein wakes me with his hungry cry around three in the morning. I pull him close on the bare mattress because the room is cold and the only cover we have is the hotel duvet that still smells like Mike.

Well, I hate it but I use it anyway. I feed him while I sit with my back against the wall and he falls asleep again the second he is full. I lay him down gently then sit there staring at nothing because sleep will not come back.

I keep hearing Keith’s slap, Mike saying my real name and Regina laughing the day she pushed me. My cheeks are wet before I even notice I am crying but I keep the sound inside so the baby stays asleep.

When the tears stop, I wipe my face on the duvet and count the ten thousand dollars one more time under the streetlight that comes through the blinds. I slide the envelope back under the mattress and tell myself tomorrow, I will fix everything.

Morning comes fast and Einstein is up again at seven demanding milk so I feed him and change him. I put

  • Kiss my feet, Devil!   Chapter 6: Starting over

    JUDITH LARSSON I snatch Einstein out of Mike’s arms and hold him so tight against my chest because I’m scared someone will take him again and this time I won’t get him back. He is warm and he smells like milk and he is the only thing that still feels real. Mike stands there with his hands half-raised and his mouth open and he looks at me like I’m the one who broke everything. “Judith, please, just listen for one second.” “No,” I say and my voice comes out flat and hard and I like it that way because I don’t want him to hear how much I’m shaking inside. “You don’t get to talk. You don’t get to call me baby. You threw me out, remember? You chose Regina, remember? You told me the baby I lost wasn’t worth keeping the marriage and then you pushed me down those stairs.” Keith steps closer and his face is red and ugly and I see the slap he gave me minutes ago still burning in his eyes. “Louisa, you’re confused, come home with me and we’ll fix this.” I turn to him and I laugh but it’s n

    Judith's POV Morning dawned within a blink of an eye and even before I could open my eyes, my phone rang loudly..“Who the hell is that after a pleasurable night?” I mumbled, rolling to Keith's side of the bed but there were really no signs of him anywhere.“Babe?.." I called, opening my eyes at that moment but he was still absent..“In the bathroom?.." I spoke again, but still, no response came.I sighed, reaching for the device in my bag whose sounds were too loud for my liking. I'd actually placed the bag right beside the bed last night so it was easier to reach for it.Surprisingly, Keith was the caller and with furrowed brows, I swiped green..“Why calling when we ---”“Where the hell are you, huh? I waited all night but you never showed up. Do you know the extent I went in getting hard!",he yelled fiercely and angrily My heart skipped a beat and I immediately sat up properly.What the hell was he saying?.. didn't we just spend the night together?“What are you talking about?..

    ♣A YEAR LATER♣JUDITH LARSSONI'd received Keith's letter at work that morning and its content gave me so much happiness and joy..We were consummating our marriage for the first time since I survived my accident today.. and yes, he promised to make it a romantic one in a hotel room!.He had claimed to have developed a problem with erection before we got married and our child was gotten through IVF... starving me of intimacy since he claimed to be my husband.“You were aware of this before you lost your memories and the vacuum was the thousandth option I settled for to help me get hard but it never worked..” Forgetting those words of his was impossible, because he says that each time I craved for his touch on the days my hormones got me horny..Did I believe him??..Yes of course, or does an amnesia patient have an option than believing ... even lies?..I ascended the hotel stairs with my four-month old baby, who was sitting comfortably in the baby carrier I was using, right on my ch

    MIKE CARSON“Every couple planning to get married runs several tests!” I gave Regina's words a retort in frustration and all she could respond with was an annoying laughter..“Did you just say every couple?.." she paused to laugh again.“Well, not ours.. because that's so unnecessary” she smirked, lighting a cigar stick which one could regard as something she was obsessed with due to her regular intake of it..“So unnecessary?.. you're insane” I let out more words in frustration.She's had been a headache for the past five weeks and also the main reason why our wedding preparations were this slow.“Nothing is necessary to you, who behaves that way, huh? We agreed just this morning to go to the hospital for the tests after I pick you up from the spa and now you're changing your words?.. What's the meaning of that". I made more lamentations while she puffed out smoke from her mouth and ears, making me feel a bit choked in the car.I had to turn on the car's AC because the traffic jam k

  • Kiss my feet, Devil!   Chapter Two

    JUDITH LARSSONI woke up with a blank head --- with no single memory of myself nor where I was coming from.All I noticed were a series of wires connected to my body and a faint smell of some clinical fluids, but the room wasn't looking like a hospital ward..“An home treatment" I found myself muttering for no reason as I kept trying to remember at least a thing about myself, but nothing changed.Wait..I didn't even know my name!..“What the --” I was interrupted by the sudden opening of the door and I totally went speechless when a tall man walked in with another lady who obviously was a doctor judging from the stethoscope around her neck.“You're awake!" The man exclaimed, walking over to me with so much excitement obvious in his expression.I gave him a ‘Do I even know you?’ expression with my brows scrunched up.Nothing about him was familiar, not even his face and at a point I feared that I'd been kidnapped from somewhere or maybe... sold?..I shook away the thoughts..It didn'
