The Encounter

Mariah had been on duty for the past 32 hours. She had little to no sleep and God knows when was the last time she ate because even she does not remember eating anything except a chocolate protein bar during her round break.

Being a doctor is already exhausting but being a resident is worst of all. The only thing that’s been keeping her alive is her colleague and best friend Blaire and maybe some coffee too that she has been devouring for the past 3 hours. It’s not like she doesn’t love her job. She loves it. It’s what she has been wanting to do her whole life.

She always thought of herself as a side character. Not having a fair skin or a perfect body, just a brunette with pitch black eyes and a bunny smile. Sometimes she would have to wear glasses to look a little mature as her baby face was of no help. She may not be the main character we see in movies but she’s kind. Yes, she’s kind and humble. She always envied those girls in the movies that had everyone head over heels for them but she knew that if she had to be likeable she needs to be kind.

She never had someone who loved her truly. Her parents were busy always busy fighting and her sister never cared for her. She was bullied by others for being fat when she was young. She tried to loose weight and achieved but the trauma was still there and even after everything she had gone through, she never complained nor did she blame or was rude to anyone. She’s a great doctor who worked her ass off to get where she is right now but at this moment, she’s just a human with no sleep and just wants to go home. After an hour, she is allowed to leave.

“I cannot wait to go home ,have a shower and then go straight to bed,” Mariah speaks with excitement in her voice.

“Don’t forget to eat before going to bed. You’ve been chugging down that coffee for too long.”, Blaire says with concern.

“Yes I will make sure of that! Now off I go and off you go too. Now it’s your time to chug that coffee down your throat”, Mariah says with a grin on her face.

She knows that Blaire in on night shift today and will be handling everything alone. Blaire laughs and says her goodbye.

“Hope you have a good night Buddie!”

It is currently 2 am and there is no one to be seen on the streets. It’s dark so she decides to take a taxi instead of walking home as she usually does. She sits in the taxi as soon as the taxi arrives and decides to stop by the convenience store near her apartment so she could restock her refrigerator that has been empty for days now.

She arrives at the store, buys some vegetables, snacks and drinks. After paying for all those things when she walks outside the store, she is just confused as she cannot find the taxi anywhere.

“ Where did he go? Maybe there was an emergency so he just left but he should’ve at least taken the fare before leaving ”, Mariah thinks to herself.

She decides to walk as she’s just 5 minutes away from home. She’s thinking about his day today on the way and how she was glad to witness a triplets delivery today. She had delivered twins before but never in her life had she seen triplets.

As she’s thinking, she hears a man groan by the side of the road. She thinks that he’s drunk. But when she takes a closer look, she sees a man bleeding. A lot. And when you see a person bleeding that much, its not a good sign at all. She rushes towards him. She sees a young man with a handsome face. He’s tall and has brown hair with light brown eyes. Brown is not a rare color but there was something in his eyes that made him different. Any girl would fall for him instantly but right now he’s bleeding as hell and now is not the time to worship his beauty. Mariah as a doctor had to make sure he’s okay.

“Sir! Excuse me Sir! Can you hear me? ”Mariah asks to make sure he’s conscious but he has lost a lot of blood and is too injured to speak.

She examines his body to find the bleeding site. She tears his shirt and is shocked to see a bullet wound in his abdomen. All that blood came from the bullet present in his abdomen.

Mariah hadn’t seen a bullet wound before but she knew she had to do something before he went into cardiac arrest due to blood loss. She quickly takes her scarf that was wrapped around her neck and tried to stop the bleeding by pushing it hard against the injured area. Then she takes her phone out and calls for an ambulance right away.

“It’s going to be okay! You’ll be fine. Just stay with me, okay? Just stay with me!” Mariah takes breaths heavily as he sees the man groan in pain.

But shortly after, Mariah notices the man can’t breath properly as there is not enough blood being pumped by his heart and is going under cardiac arrest. This is what she feared the most and there’s no one around to help her. She screams for help but no one’s around and the ambulance is taking too much time .She knows what she had to do. She starts performing CPR.

“Stay with me! You can’t die on me like this. You’re too young. You can’t die like this,” Mariah says as tears fall from his eyes onto his chest. After performing chest compressions for a while she sees that he has revived. The ambulance arrives at that exact moment and takes him to the hospital. Mariah goes along with them as she just can’t leave him like that.

.............................

2 Days Later

Adam opens his eyes and realizes that he is in a hospital. The reality struck him hard and he tried to get up but failed as he felt the stabbing pain in his abdomen. He starts recalling what had happened to him after he got shot by his rival’s man and how he had a car wreck. He had to run as his men still chased him. Adam remembers fainting after he had dodged them. But then he suddenly remembers the girl who performed CPR on him as he was bleeding to death.

He does not know for how long he has been in this hospital so he calls for a nurse and asks what had happened. When she tells him that he had been here for 2 days Adam loses his control. He can’t be here. What if someone knew that he survived. What if Ariak knew he survived and was here at a local hospital. He would do anything to kill him.

“Do you want me to call someone from your family? Dr.Mariah found you on the street and she was the one who saved you. But we weren’t able to find any of your belongings so we were couldn’t contact anyone from your side,” the nurse explains,

“Dr.Mariah has been the one checking up on you for two days. Let me page her to let her know that you’re awake.”

‘I don’t have time for this I need to get back to Mason so he knows that I’m alive and not dead’. Adam thinks to himself.

The nurse walks outside the door and Adam does not waste any time. He gets up clenching his stomach due to the pain but he endures it. Sorry Dr.Whoever saved my life but I need to get out of here right now. Adam leaves without getting caught by anyone. He’s a mafia boss for a reason.

Mariah opens the door to Adam’s room but finds no one there. The rooms empty. Adam left without meeting her.

“Guess he just left without saying goodbye and now I’ll never know his name or why he got shot,” Mariah sighs, “but at least I know he’s fine now.”

  • You Revive Me   Epilogue

    Adam sat up, and Mariah helped him, sitting beside him on the bed. As they found themselves alone, Adam's demeanor hinted at emotions he was struggling to contain. Mariah, sensing the turmoil within him, waited in confusion until Adam decided to share his thoughts."At first, I thought I was dreaming. I thought I was going to die, and then I heard your voice after a while, and something triggered inside my head. And then I knew it wasn't the first time you were saving my life. It had happened before, and..." Adam paused, capturing Mariah's full attention. Their eyes met, and she noticed tears streaming down his cheek. "And all the memories came crashing down. The first time you saved my life, when I had you kidnapped, and all our time spent together at the mansion. I always felt a strange feeling that hung between us, but I wasn't quite able to grasp what it was, and now, finally, I've realized what it was..."Adam's voice faltered, and both of them were now shedding tears, the weight

The words hung in the air, not the whole truth but a narrative carefully crafted to navigate the delicate terrain of Adam's lost memories.Curiosity sparked in Adam's eyes, and he asked, "How was he?" Mariah's tears welled up as she gaze

  • You Revive Me   The Lost Time

    Pete had to meet Mason, he had to see him with his own eyes to believe that he was alive. He had to make up for all the years that they had lost.Pete couldn't believe his eyes as he entered the cafe and saw Mason, alive and well, gazing out of the window. It felt like witnessing a miracle, a reunion he had never dared to dream of. The years of separation, the grief, all seemed suspended in that moment.Mason's eyes met Pete's, and a surge of recognition and emotion washed over them both. Without a word, Mason stood up, memories flooding back. Pete, his heart pounding, rushed toward Mason, and they embraced tightly. As they sat down, the weight of unspoken words hung in the air. There was so much to say, so many questions, yet neither of them uttered a single word for a long while. The reunion was more than just physical; it was a reconciliation of emotions, a silent dialogue that spoke volumes. Each passing moment carried the weight of unspoken apologies, gratitude for the unexpect

    Pete's heart tightened as he sensed an unspoken turmoil in Mariah. "What's the matter, Mariah? Is everything alright?" he asked, his concern etched on his face. Mariah met his gaze, a smile masking the pain in her eyes. Yet, as she looked at Pete, tears welled up, and a flood of memories crashed over her—the moments with Adam, Pete, and Mason in the mansion."Ella, my sweetheart. Come here," she called her daughter, fighting to maintain composure. Mariah hugged Ella tightly, trying to shield her from the storm within. "Can you play in your room for a while? Mommy needs to talk with Uncle Pete and Aunt Blaire." Ella, sensing her mother's distress, smiled and kissed Mariah on the cheek. "Anything for you, Mommy," she replied, leaving the room.Pete exchanged a worried glance with Blaire, the heaviness of the unspoken hanging in the air. "Mariah, what's going on?" he asked softly, his voice a gentle plea for her to share the burden.As Ella skipped away to her room, Mariah took a deep br

    The sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm, golden glow over the city. Mariah stood at the familiar meeting spot, her heart racing with anticipation and anxiety. Mason had asked her to meet him there, promising to take her to Adam. But there was a condition - they had to pretend to be just friends in front of Adam, a charade of normalcy to shield him from the complexities of their past.As Mason approached, Mariah could see the concern etched in his eyes. He gently squeezed her hand, offering reassurance in his touch. "Remember, Mariah, we have to be careful. Adam's mind is fragile right now. We don't want to overwhelm him."Mariah nodded, her throat tight with the emotions she was trying to suppress. "I understand, Mason. I'll do whatever it takes to help him."They walked together towards the house Mason and Adam had been living for years. Mariah's steps felt heavy, each one carrying the weight of the unknown. The journey was filled with silence, both lost in their thoughts. M

    Mariah's hand trembled as she reached out to touch Mason's shoulder. Her voice, barely a whisper, called his name into the air, a mixture of hope and fear hanging in the space between them. Mason slowly turned, his face shrouded in shadow.As he turned around, Mariah's breath caught in her throat. It was Mason, but not the Mason she remembered. He looked different, he had a scar on his forhead."Mason?" she called out tentatively, her voice barely audible over the din of the street.Mason turned around, his eyes widening in astonishment. He recognized Mariah instantly, and a mix of emotions flickered across his face—surprise, happiness, and a tinge of sadness. He couldn't believe his eyes, he never thought he'd be seeing her again like this."M...Mariah," Mason said, his voice filled with surprise. Mariah's voice quivered as she spoke, her eyes never leaving his face. "You're....you're alive.We thought you were gone. How... how is this possible?""We can't talk here, we need to go so
