Phoenix’s POV I opened my eyes, my eyesight was blurry, but it became okay little by little. I am here in a hospital, and many things were injected into me while lying on the bed. A few minutes later, mom entered the room. “You’re finally awake,” she said while walking towards me, “I’ve talked to your doctor earlier, and he told me that you have selective amnesia, and until now, your older brother is missing,” she added that made me frown. “Older brother?” I asked her. I am not going to lie; I am confused right now. Based on the way she acts now, I know she cried earlier. I have selective amnesia; I cannot remember some details about my life, including what happened before I was diagnosed with having it. “Your brother’s name is Nate Keehl,” she said to me, “He was missing since your prom night last Friday,” she added. Older brother? “Nate Keehl?” I asked her again. I am annoyed with m

I stood up as well, and I looked at him, “Who is he?” I asked Patrick that made him smile. “I want you to meet S,” he introduced the man, “He is a detective that solved many criminal cases not just in the Philippines but also in the other countries,” he added to me. “I don’t care,” I said sarcastically because I only asked who the man was, I did not ask him what he accomplished, and I feel that the man he introduced to me is so arrogant. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Phoenix,” he said, “And I think I don’t need to introduce myself to you because Patrick already did that,” he continued to me. He is using a device right now to change his voice to hide his identity. He is very arrogant! He walked towards my broth

My blood quickly went to my head. He looked at me irritably, and he spoke, “Did I lie?” He asked sarcastically to me. “Sebastian!” Melody intervened, “Stop!” She said to Sebastian. He just laughed and glanced at her irritably instead of following what she said. “So, is it my fault?” He asked sarcastically and glanced at me, “It’s your brother’s fault!” He retorted. So, my body moved towards him. I don’t know why it happened. Perhaps I could not take what he said to Nate anymore. “Say that again, I dare you!” I angrily said to him. I will not lie; I want to punch him right now! He smirked and spoke, “Are you deaf—” he stopped talking when I punched him in his face. So Melo
