Hannah's POV"Ok, ok, I'll tell you," I said."Yes, please!!" Sam replied."It all started in middle school. He was so lonely, without any friends. I was lonely too, with no friends of my own. But I was not shy, actually, as he was. So, I made the first step to ask for friendship. He agreed and we became friends. Best friends. Slowly, we started sharing each & everything about ourselves. He was always there for me, and I was too. We were inseparable""Then?""I got to know his family. He was Carson. Ryan Carson""But... isn't his surname Swift?""That's where it all ended for me and started for him""Hmm... you don't usually make riddles, do you?""Huh, listen. It was a normal day, like any other, but the most unfortunate one for me... For him... For us""........""We were returning from our school. His parents always hated him, as I saw, but he didn't mind them much, because he knew he could please them someday. But they have had enough of him, so they... they decided... they decided something that was... horrible""What?""They decided to... end him""E-end him? What the fuck are you talking about?!""They planned his... his... death... That day... When we were returning from school, we went to my house. My parents welcomed us and after that, he decided to go back to his house as usual"Someone entered the washroom, so I stopped. She went to one of the washrooms and I started speaking again. But I spoke very slowly, at least not be heard by that girl. "Then?" Sam asked. "I remember clearly he was happy and smiling when he left in the car... but all I know after that was that he had an accident... and... He was admitted to the hospital by the people""Woah? How the hell did he-""Listen, Sam! So, I was broken at the thought of him being in an accident. But I build up my courage and went inside his room after the doctors have treated him...""And?""I talked to the doctors, and they told me something I never thought I will ever listen""What???""They told me that he had amnesia and he is in temporary memory loss... and you know what?" I chuckled at the words they spoke so easily, the next. "they told me that he would be in his worst if he ever remembers me, for that would make him remember everything, about his family's betrayal, and trust me, he was not a kind of bearing betrayals""Wh-""But... I did what they said. I left him there. I made sure he doesn't see me even for a second. My parents kept me away from his sight while making sure he gets adopted by a different family because he was young and worth it""You... you just left?""Or what? Stay there just for my sake? Ruin his life? No, never Sam! I loved him, I loved him so much- I don't know for how long was I in depression after that""But, he? What happened to him?""He was adopted by the Swifts. Got a new life, with plenty of friends. I heard he just transferred here to complete his 10 + 2""So now what? What will you do?""He has seen me. I don't know if he will ever remember me or not - but it’s best for him not to. There's not a single thing we will ever get by making him remember-""You will get a lot, Sam. His friendship""No. I won't. I don't even know if he wants to be my friend or not. He has changed so much. Why would he want me as a friend now that he's so full of friends?""You're wrong Hannah, the first friend is always special""But..." I was confused. "So, what are you going to do now?""I don't know, I just want-" I stopped when I heard footsteps behind me, at the door. Samantha's eyes went wide on seeing the intruder, so I turned back.No, my eyes went wider than ever.Ryan."Bloody hell, wasn't this girl' washroom!?!" I whispered to Hannah looking at the floor, not wanting to look at his face, which carried a soft smirk."Bloody yes!" she whispered back."hi, Evelyn" Ryan spoke and I looked back, to where his eyes trailed, and I saw that same girl that entered a few minutes back."Hi babes, but you shouldn't be here, you know" she replied with a smirk, washing her hands under the tap. "Yeah, but you know how much I miss you" he spoke. "You've been not leaving me alone even to let me go to the washroom, you know!" she yelled sarcastically."Sorry babes," he said and then he grabbed her arms and pulled her close. I looked the other side while my heart was breaking down at the sight. Oh god. He has a girlfriend.
Hannah’s POVI still didn’t have enough courage to look in their direction, but then I felt the footsteps retreating, becoming fader and fader, and then I finally looked at Samantha.“Oh god, now you should really get over him,” Sam said.“Yaar! You should be supporting me, and what the hell are you doing to your friend. I mean, did you see that girl? I haven’t seen here around yet”
Hannah’s POV“Sam, whatever it was, he has changed…” I said as the lunch period finally began.“Yeah, I can see that no one would have a crush on such a boy,” she said. “So now, it’s time to pack your things and leave”“What leave,” I said with a disappointed look.“For self-respect’s sake, don’t crush on him, now!” she said.Oh yeah. Something is known as Self-Respect.“But... Sam! I want to make her pay!” I said and she smirked.“Then you should ask about her to me,” she said.“Wait. How the hell did you gather her information in such a small time???”“I have my ways,&
Hannah's POV"Because you like him," mom said and all color from my face drained up.What. The. Hell."M-mom??""You think I didn't know? Oh, you're too naive, kiddo. I know you like him from like when you were... Around 8 or 9, right?""MOM! HOW THE HELL DO YOU KNOW!""It's obvious, Hannah. And now that you've accepted it, let's talk" she said taking me to the room, while Sam looked at me, asking if she should follow."Sam, you should come too" mom cleared the doubt and she followed, but what was troubling me was, is she mad at me!?!🌟🌟🌟🌟
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!"
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 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.
