Chapter 21      ARIANA'S POV I woke up with start as my head buzzed with new memories.I was going to the blue berry forest,I saw a man,a body and it was raining.For a moment I held my head tight as it was a bit painful. I thought I was going nuts,but then as soon as I calmed down,I figured my half lost memory was back.Throwing myself up from the bed,I flew to the palour where Dad sat beside his usual fire place."I remember everything dad!!, every bit of it!", I yelled without caution."You remember what?",he asked gently giving me an unsure look.Then I got hold of my senses,Dad wasn't supposed to know about this."It's nothing actually Dad.
