You Own A Pharmacy?

After the doctor left, the man came close to me and held my hands. He rubbed his thumbs gently on the back of my hand and looked at me. “Don’t worry about it. We are going to get through this, trust me.”I furrowed my brows and looked down at our intertwined hands. “I don't even know your name, how do you expect me to trust you?”The man nodded. “I’m sorry for not introducing myself properly. I’m Lorenzo, your husband.”The name sounded too familiar to my ears. It was like knowing the rhyme of a song without even knowing its lyrics. But now wasn’t the time for me to dwell on why his name was familiar to me despite not recognizing him. The doctor had said my memory was distorted, that must be the reason why I couldn’t recognize him.“You said I had a car accident and that was what landed me here. What happened before that? Why was I in that car?”He blinked, looking like he was thinking of how to answer me. After a long pause, he said, “You were going to meet someone."I frowned. “Who?

Welcome Home

Lorenzo had stayed with me throughout the day. He was attentive to all my needs and didn't let me do anything. At one point, I felt bad for not remembering him. Although I was his wife, he was a stranger to me.In the evening, I lay in bed, staring at the ceiling. Lorenzo had gone to see the doctor regarding a signature on some documents. I was left alone and had the time to think through everything that had happened so far.I could remember most of my life, but it was in an inadequate sequence. There were some things I mixed up. Each time I forced myself to disentangle my memories, it caused my head to ache.I sighed and clenched my hand by my side. How long will I remain like this?The door opened. Lorenzo walked inside. He looked concerned when he saw that I was still awake. He tried to coax me to sleep, but my mind was too messed up to give in. I turned in bed and looked at him. “It is hard to fall asleep,” I pointed out as he patted my head. “Something about being in a hospital

I Have Been Patient With You.

The living room was very spacious and filled with many luxurious interior decorations. Even the floor was made of glass. I looked around the living room in disbelief. How rich was Lorenzo for him to afford all these expensive things?He had told me he owned a pharmacy, but was that enough to get him everything he owned?“I looked back at him and said, “Your house is very beautiful. It has a lot of nice stuff.”He pulled me close to him and smiled down at me. “Our house,” he corrected. Then, he looked around and shrugged. “You were the one who chose the decoration.”My eyes traveled from the furnace to the posh furniture to the beautiful artworks that were hung on the walls and blinked. “I decorated this place?”“Yes, you did,” he said. “It was going to be our first time living together as a couple so you wanted it to feel like home.” He looked at me and asked, “Do you still like its interior design or should I let you go through others?”I furrowed my brow at his question. “Will you l

This Isn’t Your Fault Though

I walked away from the transparent wall and looked around the bedroom. Something here must be able to trigger my memory. I looked through the drawer, combing through every corner. There weren't many items in there except for some drugs and a pack of condoms. My hand stilled as I picked up the pack of condoms. This bedroom was meant for Lorenzo and me. If these condoms were kept in the drawer then that meant Lorenzo must have had the intention of us having sex. I shivered at the thought of us being undressed and entangled in the bed. None of it felt right.I know it was wrong of me to feel that way, but that was the truth. Having sex with Lorenzo was something I was even ready to imagine, let alone engage in.I shook my head and dropped the pack of condoms back into the drawer. As I rose to my feet and turned away from the drawer, an idea hit me. I didn’t know how long I could prevent Lorenzo from consummating our marriage, but in the meantime, I could extend it by getting rid of tha

Why Do You Like Me?

We walked out of the room and went to the dining room. That dining table was already arranged. A lot of different meals lined up at its center. The whole place has a calming atmosphere as bright candles lit up the night and the fragrance of pleasant flowers in various nice vases drifted through the dining room. Lorenzo brought out a chair for me to seat. I smiled at him and sat down. “Thanks,”I said.He nodded and went to sit at the other side of the dining table. I looked at the various meals on the table. They all looked so good and mouth watering, but I didn't like how meaty they smelled.Lorenzo beckoned to Gracie and instructed her to serve our meal. I sat in silence as she dished out my food. I picked up my fork and danced it around the food. Lorenzo looked up from his meal and frowned. “What happened?”I shrugged. “The food doesn’t appeal to me.”Remembering that Gracie was the one who prepared the food and was standing a little far behind me, I turned to her and gave her

Yes, That Kind Of Rich.

8: Yes, That Kind Of Rich.He looked surprised to hear my question. He adjusted on the bed and moved a little closer to me. “I like everything about you, Honey.”I fiddled with the hem of the bed sheet and met his gaze. “I know, but can you mention anything specific?”“Why did you ask the question?" I shrugged. “I just want to know why we were together, what made us agree to spend a lifetime together.”He sat up and rested his back on the headrest. “Do you want to know how we met?” He asked instead. “That can help you understand why we got married.”He was right about that. Maybe if I knew how we met and what our relationship was like before the marriage, I could finally figure out how to make our marriage work.I sat up on the bed and leaned on the headrest, looking curious. “Yes, I really want to know how we met.” Looking lost in my thoughts, I rambled on. “Who approached who first and the kind of dates we usually go to.” I looked at him and asked with a smile, “Wait, have we ever

The Dream.

The whole place was dark, and I couldn't see anything but I heard a voice.Or it should have been a voice, only that it sounded very distant. Like a breeze whispering words.“Mom…”I looked to my left, furrowing my brows. “Who are you?” I demanded.“Mommy, it's me.”The voice sounded like I was expected to recognize it. Like as if by just referring to themselves, I could figure out who the person was, but I couldn't. I couldn't even see their faces, how will I be able to tell who they were? Something told me I knew who they were. Although it was coming from a distance, it sounded way too familiar. Like a lullaby I was used to hearing. I walked in the direction of the voice, but as I chased after the voice, it grew even more distant. What was happening?It didn't make any sense. I didn’t even know where I was. The only thing I knew was that someone else was with me in that room. As I walked blindly tracing the echoes of the voice, a ray of light shone through my path and I saw a li

I Called That Man Lorenzo.

Honey.I covered my face with my hands and shook my head. The image of that boy kept coming up in my mind. His blood, red and shiny, was pooling around him, staining me. A sob broke through me and I clenched my chest tightly.That boy…He was mine.That boy in the dream was my child.And I lost him.I failed to protect him and that caused his death. I failed him. My shoulders trembled as I wept.Lorenzo stood still, watching me break apart. He raised his hands to reach out for me, but dropped them back to his side and sighed. “Honey, you need to calm down.”“How?” I asked, looking at me with my eyes glinting with tears. “I saw him, Lorenzo. I saw him. He called mom and…” I remembered the fear in his eyes. “He cried to me to save him. You don’t understand how devastating it is. My child wanted me to save him and I… I failed to do that.”Lorenzo came up to me and held my trembling shoulders. “Look at me,” he cupped my chin and moved my face in his direction. I brushed his hand away. “

He Knew.

Honey.I narrowed my eyes as I watched Carlo stretch the cup of water towards me. He looked at me with so much concern that for a second, I started to wonder if the memory I had recalled was true or was just an imagination. Something my brain was conjuring just to mess me up.But I knew it wasn't.It couldn't be.The memory felt so real. So true.But why?Why will Carlo want me dead?I didn't even remember ever knowing him.What could I have done to him that made him hate me that much?I racked my head for an answer. For something to help me understand what had happened, but I couldn't remember anything else.Lorenzo stood up from his seat and came to me. He squatted and rested his hand on the top of the chair I was sitting on. His face pinched into a frown as he asked, “Are you okay now?”I rubbed my hand around my throat and nodded. “Yes, thanks.”He smiled and reached for my cheek. When he touched me, my mind instantly went to the moment he held me when Carlo tried to shoot me. I

The Closed Cabinet.

12:Honey.I shook my head, trying to shake off the dread building inside me at the thought of Carlo being aware that I had remembered what he did. I needed to do something before he tried to silence me again. I looked down at my hand intertwined with Lorenzo’s hand and wondered if I could trust him to protect me. But could I really trust him? He brought an enemy to our home.There was no way I could confide in him. At least, not until I figured out what was going on.We got to the bedroom and I went to sit down on the bed, feeling lost. Lorenzo leaned on the closed door and studied me. I didn't look back at him. I didn't want him to know that I had just regained one of my memories. “Is there something you want me to know?”I shook my head and looked at the transparent wall of the bedroom. “There is nothing. I just feel tired.”Lorenzo thought about what I said and nodded. “Okay,” he said. “How about your memories? Have you recalled anything?”I jolted, too shocked and scared abou
