Hannah's POV"Will you go to the Swifts?" Sam asked me. "But Sam... Are you really saying this? What will I say?" "Hannah. Ryan Carson was so good, as you described. But Ryan Swift isn't. Amnesia isn't the reason, Hannah, there might be something that happened after you left him, when he was with Swifts. You have met the Swifts before, haven't you?" "Yes, uhh... When they adopted Ryan. I met them once. They were so good; I loved their hospitality. They may even recognize me!" I said gladly. "So just go and have a try!" "But how? Because Ryan will be at home-" "Stupid. Take a leave from college and go to his house! If they recognize you, they will not possibly tell Ryan about your visit" she said. Well, she has become smart. "You're becoming smart, all my effect... It's true, all the effects of the company you have" I said, she rolled her eyes sarcastically which changed into a sweet smile at the same moment. I love this sweet girl. My bestie forever. "Ah, you are cursing me, aren't you?" I said to her. "Well, if saying that you're stupid to then... Yes?" "Stupid, how?" "Make a plan, come on. How are you going to meet his parents!? What are you gonna ask? Make a plan!" "Oh yeah yeah..." I said and then started thinking. I was just thinking that she came up with a plan. Well, no one can meet her wits when it comes to playing that criminal, detective, plans, and all that stuff, you know. "Ask them if he has been hurt by something," she said. "what? Why would he be hurt, I mean how can you be even sure about that!?" "What changed people? It's sure hurt, you know that very well. Ask them, have a try, Hannah!!" "Okay fine fine. You're coming with me, but" "Nooo" "What Nooo!?" I copied her. "I don't even know them, sis!" "But how can I go alone?" "But-" "Please!" "Okay fine, I will come, happy?" "Yeah! You're the best friend ever!" "I know, tell me something I don't know!" I rolled my eyes sarcastically. She laughed like a maniac. Even though we are laughing, I'm damn scared of going to his house. Not that they are some serial killers, but still, going to someone's house like that!"We'll go tomorrow," Sam said."Okay... Should I tell mom?""Your wish""Nooo tell me!""Hmm well you should tell, you know, your mom is so understanding""Yeah! You must be doomed by seeing that, aren't you?""Yup exactly. My mom beat the hell out of me the other day when she saw me holding hands with Max, even though we are just friends!""That's beyond my imagination""Stop laughing! You're just lucky!""Okay okay. Let’s close my topic and open yours""What about me?""Maximum Fernandes, huh?""Ohh him! What about him?""Playing dumb?""There's no point in thinking about that because he is never gonna accept me as his girlfriend""Yup. He doesn't like hanging around with girls except for you and Lara""Ohh god that LARA!!""Don't worry, I'm sure he doesn't have any feelings for her" I said and she nodded and smiled.Lara Jane, a friend of Maximum Fernandes, she is also having a crush on Max."He better not have!""But why don't you propose to him?""Oh ya sure. Then I would be called Ms. Rejected. I mean seriously, you know he will reject me on my face!""You never know until you try""You keep quiet!" she said frustratingly.The day ended as she went back to her house. I told mom that I would be visiting the Swifts."Hannah, that's-""Mom. Please, I want to know what changed him so much""You know what, don't go""But mom!""Fine but don't get yourself hurt!""Mom I'm not a kid," I said and went back._____________________________________________Sasha Quinn (Hannah's mom) POVShe went back to her room. No kiddo, I was not talking about physical hurt. I was talking about emotional hurt. You can yourself be a reason for his changed personality. You both loved each other. Ryan loved you. He told me everything, but also made me swear on him to never tell you this.You also hurt him unknowingly, Hannah, and your mom can't do anything. I don't know if Swifts have any reason or not, but Ryan... Maybe, maybe he remembers everything... and he's playing dumb.But maybe he really doesn't remember anything. Anything is possible, kiddo. Anything... _____________________________________________Hannah's POVI called Sam. "Hello, Hannah," she said. "Sam, I asked mom. She... uh... Accepted" "Good! Don't go to college tomorrow! I'll come to your house at... uh... 9?""Yeah sure. And ya, bring your car, will you?" "Yes, I will. Your mom won't allow you to drive anyway!" "Yesss! Btw, should we inform the Swifts before our arrival?" "How are you gonna do that?" "hmm... Leave it then?" "Haha that's more like you" "Yup! Okay then... Bye" "Bye. Good night Han" "Han? Okay fine, SAM!" "Haha"
Hannah's POVSam came to my house at exactly 9. Nah. Don't get the wrong idea that she's time-bound or something. She is only here because we are going to do the 'detective stuff' you know, we will try to figure out the reality by the Swifts' responses.We took her car and drove to his house. I informed my mom. She wished me the best of luck as if I'm going on the border!I didn't really remember his house, but ya I remembered that his house name was Swift's house. I asked around his house because I didn't find any house that I remember."Oh, the Swifts Mansion? It's there!" one of the pa
Hannah's POVI was hurt... And to be honest, I was angry too.Our friendship.It wasn't normal. Everything meant a lot to him and to me.I know he never felt anything for me, but we both cherished our friendship more than anything. He... He even promised me that he'll never ever leave me.He told me that I will always have a special place in his heart. So where's that place? What does it mean now? Does he hate me? What did I even do? Just left him because it was the need of the time?I don't think I deserve bein
Hannah's POVI was confused. I don't know why, but I don't think that Ryan would put on an act or play dumb like that. But I can't think of The Swifts lying about him to me either. They know how much he means to me, as a friend even.I was at my home, that day ended and I didn't initiate another conversation with Ryan.Sam called me at night when I was lost in thoughts."Hey," I said."Hey listen. After thinking a lot, I came up with something sensible""Oh great. Then please tell me Samantha, or
Hannah's POVSomething is really wrong here."So, tomorrow you'll know who's lying," Sam said."Definitely," I said.I was really waiting for the next day. Let's end this suspense already!_____________________________________________The next day started with me waking way too early that I drooled back to sleep.After I got up again, I went to get ready and Sam arrived just in time.
Hannah's POVI was in a state of a dilemma of what should I do next. Sam always helps me, but right now I want her to concentrate on Max.Actually, she is thinking of finally proposing to him. But she's hesitant and also she wants the proposal to be best. I don't want her to think about my helpless case with Ryan always. It's already been so many years since she likes him, but she never made a move. Who knows if she didn't get time because of me?I don't want her to think that I'm selfish by making her think about Ryan all the time.So right now, she's at her house in
Hannah’s POVHe kissed me.I was feeling numb. I thought I would enjoy the day he would kiss me, but right now, I wasn’t. I was feeling disgusted by his kiss which he did for god-knows-what reason.I wriggled out of his hold on my neck and ended the kiss. He looked straight into my eyes, the hollowness in his eyes told me that he’s in pain. But what pain?My eyes were filled with tears, I didn’t even know the reason why my 9-years-old-crush kissed me.“Why?” I asked slowly.
Hannah’s POVMy mum must have arrived at the school. I’m in my class right now. Actually, it was class time, so I had to come back. Anytime, someone would be coming and telling me to pack my things for my mom had arrived.“Mam, please send Hannah Quinn and Samantha Parker Kent to the principal’s office,” someone said. I got up, and Sam too. Then the person said something to the teacher quietly and left. We had already packed our stuff and when we were about to go, the teacher stopped us.“You’re leaving the school?” she asked shocked.“uh
Ryan & Max.What the hell are they doing here!?I slowly got down as I looked towards mom totally ignoring them."Hey, Hannah. Ryan said he wanted to talk with you" she said.I looked at Ryan. His eyes reflected that he wanted to apologize.Like he felt he was guilty."I'm sorry, I don't know you," I said and went upwards. Sam looked at me with wide eyes.___
Hannah’s POVIt has been two years since everything.If we look at things, so much has changed and if we overlook, then nothing has. Me and Sam are still the best of the friends.The only thing that changed is our circle of friends.They never found out where Keith was.Ivan was blamed by everyone even after they forgave him. He left the school in 10th grade itself because of excessive bullying.Ryan and I haven’t really talked from that day and honestly, I am happy alone. Samantha and Max have decided to end it forever too.I can’t believe so much has changed.I tried convincing Sam but she just didn’t change her decision.After the school was completed, we were gonna go to college and live our lives in a new light. Samantha is taking up a different college. This is a really difficult thing
Caroline’s POVI knew that sooner or later, Hannah’s friends would call me. I knew they would come to know about me informing him and I am ready.I went to the hospital and as soon as I entered it, her friends gathered around me. I knew each one of them, but only Ivan knew me.“Hey Ivan”“So she is Caroline?” Ryan asked.“Yup I am”“You did this to her?” His voice was rather cool and calm.“Well… am I being investigated?”“Answer me, I will answer you”“No, I didn’t do anything to her”He sighed. “And you are, well, being asked questions so you can consider yourself as being investigated too”“But I didn’t do anything!”“Police only investigate people who t
Sam’s POVWe entered Hannah’s ward and she looked at us with a really sad face. Maybe she believed that we had a similar opinion.“Sam and Max?” she whispered. “Don’t tell me you think the same”“I believe you” I assured her. “But I want you… to explain a few things…”“That means you don’t believe me”“I do. But others don’t”“Even you, Max?” she looked at him. He looked down.“Hannah, I have the proofs. How do I overlook them?”“Okay. Ask me anything and I will answer it honestly”“Who is that guy?” Max was the one to ask that. I would not ask it, because Hannah told Ryan that she didn’t know and if we are asking again that means we think she lied.“I a
Ryan’s POVWe left the ward after a few minutes. Sam also told Hannah that we’ll come back soon.“So. I wanna confront her about it” I suggested.“What? But Ryan… we decided that we’ll do it once she gets well” Sam interrupted.“I know, I can’t wait, I am sorry”“Come on, Ryan…”“I am with Ryan. He has every right to know everything” Ivan jumped in.“And you Max?” Sam asked.“I can’t say against my Samantha, but try to understand, he is right”Sam nodded. “Okay, if you all have the same opinion”“Alright. I will ask her alone, but a call will be ongoing so that you all can hear everything, okay?”“Okay”“Max, I am go
Max’s POVI left the hospital. I just don’t wanna think anything about Hannah before knowing the truth. And for that, I need proof.
Hannah’s POVI didn’t actually know what happened. I suddenly fell asleep and All I remember is that someone opened the door and before I could see who it was, I fell unconscious. When I was about to gain consciousness, I remember the doctors and the nurses roaming around me telling each other to make sure not to make any mistakes. they were also telling each other the names of some medicines I don’t even know about.
Hannah’s POVI woke up and found myself on a bed. I looked up and then right, and looking at the left I realised I was at the hospital.
Keith’s POVI put her in a room as I had something to do. I told Caroline to lock it and make sure that she doesn’t get out.
Hannah’s POVI slowly gained my consciousness and opened my eyes. I looked around and the room I was in wasn’t familiar and looked rather… haunted.
