Emily’s POV
“Hi!”
I lifted my face and rolled my eyes when I saw him again. He’s been following for the past few days and I don’t know what to do to him. He kept on saying that he’s my stalker and that he fell in love with at first sight. He’s handso, yes. He’s fit to be my ideal man, yes. He’s professional, yes. He’s hot, fcking yes! But I don’t know him. According to him, and to my doctor, I have amnesia and I confird it when I saw the year on the calendar. I forgot my present and maybe, Matt Foster is part of that present.
“Frowning again? I told you that won’t work on . You’re still beautiful in my eyes.”
I looked away and rolled my eyes but I’m actually hiding my smile. I don’t know. He’s annoying but I always find myself hiding a smile while my heart is racing inside my chest.
I have amnesia. My mind doesn’t rember him but my heart does. It races whenever he’s near and It aches whenever he’s not around. Actually, I rember him telling that he’s my boyfriend. I didn’t believe him because I didn’t know that I have amnesia.
I love him. I can feel it in my heart. However, I’m stuck in the past and the bitterness I felt when my fiance and my baby died is still here. It ca back. The horror of that night ca rushing back to but I must admit that when Matt Foster is around, my mind completely forgets about that misery.
I just had my weekly check up today and I’m resting here in the cafeteria of the hospital. I want to believe that I’m actually resting, but I know in my heart that I stayed because I know that Matt will see here since he’s working here.
He smirked. “Have you eaten? I’m famished. Eat with please.”
I glared at him. “I’m not hungry and I’m leaving now.”
I pulled myself up and was about to leave when he spoke.
“Argh! My back is hurting again. Should I just ride a taxi? I couldn’t drive because I’m sleepy and hungry.”
My lips parted as I slowly dropped my gaze on him again. He was massaging the back of his neck and indeed, he looked tired. His eyes were hooded. His hair was ssy. The veins on his hands are so visible.
I felt sothing in my heart and I found myself sitting back to the place I left earlier. He lifted his face and looked at . He looked shocked after seeing . Genuinely shocked. He didn’t look like he’s teasing either.
I cleared my throat. “What do you want to eat?”
His lips slowly curved into a beautiful smile. “Will you eat with ?”
I tilted my head. “Well...I suddenly felt hungry.”
He pulled himself up. I looked up at him and saw his eyes twinkling with happiness. “What do you want to eat?”
I shrugged my shoulders. “Y-You choose for .”
He gave a thumbs up before he ran to the counter. He doesn’t look tired now. His eyes were full of joy and he looked energetic.
I swallowed hard and caressed my chest. My heart was racing so hard and fast inside. I feel like it will pop out of my chest anyti. God! Just how in love am I with him?
“Is she Doctor Matt’s sister?”
“No! I heard she’s his patient.”
“What? Her doctor is doctor Farah.”
“Really? Is she seducing doctor Matt?”
“I’d bet my salary she is! She always cos here in the cafeteria after her weekly check-ups and I’m sure she’s always waiting for doctor Matt to notice her.”
My forehead creased. They’re talking about . Am I right?
“She’s not even pretty.”
“I know right?”
I rolled my eyes before I pulled myself up. I saw Matt walking back towards our table carrying a tray of food. His eyes widened when he saw walking towards the exit.
“Em! Emily!” He called my na but I didn’t stop walking.
He must’ve thought I’m leaving but I’m not. I stopped in front of the table of the nurses that were talking about . They looked shocked and started elbowing each other when they felt my presence. One of them looked at with a bitchy face.
“Yes? You need sothing.”
I crossed my arms. “I heard you talking about .”
She laughed sarcastically and dropped her spoon on the table. She crossed her arms too, copying . “We were. So?”
My brow shot up as I stared at her. “You’re curious about my relationship with Matt, right?”
She smirked. “You’re delusional for trying to get his attention—”
I slamd my palms on the table. The other nurses on the table jumped in shock and the bitchy woman who’s trying to fight back looked threatened.
“Emily—”
I turned to Matt. “Why don’t you tell this woman why we’re together?”
His lips parted as he stared at . He’s still carrying the tray of food as he looks at with a confused expression. “Huh?”
I stood straight and grabbed the tray he’s carrying. I angrily put it on the table before I grabbed the neck of his lab gown and pulled him closer as I tilted my head. I saw how his eyes widened even more and I heard gasps from the people watching.
I didn’t care. I kissed him on the lips in front of everyone watching. I don’t care if this is inappropriate. I don’t even care if it will create rumors or what about him. I want to do this. I want to stake my claim on him because even without my mories, my heart rembers the beautiful feeling of being with him. My heart rembers his touch. My heart rembers his presence. My heart rembers him.
I pulled away, leaving Matt looking at with a shocked face. I faced the nurses who were looking at with horrified and angered expressions.
I smirked evilly at them. “I know you’re all dying to hold this man as close as you can. But I won’t let you because this man is mine. He’s my boyfriend and I don’t share! You got it?”
*** Mason’s POV
I witnessed everything that happened in the cafeteria of the hospital. I ca here to pick up Matt since I know that he’s tired from his duty last night. I knew I’d see him in the cafeteria so I went straight here but what I witnessed made realize sothing.
The hate I feel towards Emily wasn’t really hate. It’s admiration. It’s like. And I don’t know when it started.
I swallowed hard as I watched Emily, who doesn’t rember my brother, fight for him. It’s as if she knows that his heart belongs to her and she’s accepting him even without her mories.
I sucked my breath and balled fists. Why am I feeling this? Why did I end up liking my twin brother’s girl? Why did I fcking like the woman I never thought I’d like? It was a stupid realization. It was absurd. Seeing my brother with the woman I like pains but I know I don’t have the right to like her. I made her like that. I stole her mories. I stole her chance of having a child and in spite of what happened...my twin brother forgave . He forgave and gave another chance even if I was the reason why he lost his child and almost lost the woman he loves.
I turned my back and left the cafeteria. I went straight to the parking lot and slipped myself inside the passenger seat. I started the engine and drove away. I need to get her out of my system. I need a distraction.
I gritted my teeth and stopped in a day bar. I tilted my head side by side as I raked the crowd, looking for soone who can distract . Maybe if I find a woman different from her style, I’d forget her. Besides, my feelings are still shallow. I can still redeem myself before I completely lose my sanity.
"Hi, handso!"
I looked at the woman who greeted . My eyes stayed at her face for a few seconds before I looked away and walked towards the bar counter. I sat on the stool chair and ordered hard drinks. Or I can just drown myself in alcohol?
"One margarita, please!"
I turned to the woman who sat next to . She looked problematic. My eyes examined her whole. She doesn’t look like she’s a normal woman. She’s wearing a short skirt, a piece of thin cloth as her top and her hair was curled. And obviously, she’s a woman selling her body.
"Millie! Why did you do that?" A man who looked really angry grabbed her arm.
The woman nad Millie glared at him. "I told you I fck but I don’t do drugs. That old man is sick in the head!"
I gasped and she probably heard it because she briefly glanced my way.
"He paid you, Millie! We’ll lost 1 million! God! You’re crazy!"
"I don’t care!"
"Then, pay 1 million if you don’t want this client."
"What?"
I pulled myself up and cleared my throat. Interfering isn’t my thing, but I don’t like this asshole’s point.
I shot the asshole with cold stares. "I’ll give you 5 million. Leave her alone."
