    The smell of smoke lingered long after the flames had been extinguished.Adrian stood behind the yellow barricade, his black coat soaked by the water firefighters had sprayed across the ruins. The three-story apartment building was nothing but a charred skeleton now.

    Alex's words hung in the air. "It belongs to Carlos Osei."Adrian stared at him.For a moment,neither of them spoke."The driver?"Alex nodded."The forensic report came in a few minutes ago."Adrian took the phone from Alex's hand and read through every message himself.Blood type.DNA match.Identity confirmed.Carlos Osei."So he was there.""Yes.""And someone injured him."Alex nodded."Which means he didn't simply disappear,He was taken."Adrian's eyes grew darker. "Or rescued."...Back in Elara's room, she sat quietly on the edge of the bed.Her thoughts refused to calm down.She replayed everything that had happened since she woke up.Jeremy.The doctors.Lydia.Adrian.Each of them told her pieces of a life she couldn't remember.But only one person made her heart restless.Adrian.She sighed softly. "Who are you..."The question escaped her lips again,this time no one answered.A gentle knock came from the door.Jeremy entered carrying a small paper bag. "I brought fruit.""You

    The room remained quiet, neither of them spoke,the question from the innocent girl still linger in the room.“He's your husband, isn't he? Elara looked at Adrian without blinking. She waited still no answer,finally she spoke.“Were we?.His voice was calm but her eyes searched his face carefully.Adrain slipped both hands into his trouser pocket. “No”.“No,” she frowned.“We weren't married,I have told you this before”. He answered her again honestly.She finally felt really relieved,not because she didn't want to be married to someone as cool as Adrain but because she thought forgetting her husband would be cruel.“So” she lowered her eyes. “She was mistaken”.“Yes”. Adrain didn't understand why she kept on asking this same question.There was a brief silence before Adrain broke it. “It suits you,” he said, looking at the teddy bear resting on her hands.“You think so?“I know “.She looked at him steadily and felt she could really remember everything quickly,but the doctor's warnin

    The room fell silent, Adrain didn't answer her immediately. He just looked at her,the afternoon light spilled through the window resting quietly on her face.She looks just exactly the same yet she was so far away.Her words rang in his ears,he slowly looked at her.“ I don't think that's a question I should answer”.Elara frowned. “Why?.“Because if I answer it”. He paused, choosing his words carefully. “It may influence your feelings”.Elara looked confused.”I don't understand”.“You have lost part of your memory Elara,I don't want you believing something simply because I told you,I want you to discover it yourself “.His answer stayed longer in the room,Jeremy who had been watching from the corner couldn't help but admire him.Most men would have seized the opportunity,but not Adrain he wanted her heart not her sympathy.Elara looked him in the eyes for a few seconds,there was no desperation in his eyes,just patience and pain.She couldn't explain why seeing that pain made her feel

    Lydia stopped a few steps inside the room.She clutched the bouquet tightly,her eyes already filled with tears.“Elara”. Her voice trembled.” Oh no look at you”.She hurried to the bedside before anyone could stop her and hugged Elara tightly.Elara hesitated for a second before returning the hug.“I'm so…ory” Lydia whispered. Her shoulders were shaking as if she was crying.” I was so scared when I heard about your accident”.Elara slowly parted her back.” It's okay”.Lydia pulled away,wiping the cornea of her eyes. “ No it's not okay”. She gently touched Elara's face .” You are my little sister,do you know how scared I was?Elara stared at her, something in those words should have comforted her but instead she felt strangely empty.“I'm sorry,” Elara said.The doctor's word echoed in her ears.” You may not recognize everyone immediately so don't force yourself”.Lydia forced a smile. “ You don't have to apologize “.Lydia noticed the confusion in Elara's eyes.So it is true,she reall
