"If it is about getting Rose a chatting friend, what are you there for?" Derrick teased and laughed drawing some smiles from Luis."Girls talk is very important," Luis replied with a smile.Derrick returned to his apartment to plan the trip. He made some calls to book a flight ticket for tonight. He went to Lily's room and found her sitting on the bed with her eyes fixated on the window"Lily," he called as he sat next to her on the bed.Lily turned her gaze from the window to Derrick, but she was expressionless"Lily, is everything okay?" he asked worriedly.Getting no response he asked another question"Are you hungry?" he asked.She burst out crying. He quickly hugged her, rubbing her back, "Hey, is okay. I am not leaving you alone again. sh! sh! sh!" He consoled her. Lily pulled away from Derrick and looking at him with tearful eyes, asked, "Why can't I remember anything? I know I have been here before. I can feel it. So why can't I remember anything?" she questioned in tears."Li
Derrick and Lily have safely arrived in California with the hope that the new environment will keep Lily safe and help with her recovery.Lily went to bed upon arrival as she was exhausted from the long flight. Derrick, feeling a little disappointed, went back to his room to sleep. He tossed and turned in bed unable to sleep.Eventually, he got out of bed, sat behind his desk, and started planning their fun activities. Places they could visit, shopping, yes shopping. He sat behind the desk listing them out, occasionally he checked the internet for interesting places they could visit for fun. He did that to while away the time.The birds' noisy chirping woke him up. He realizes he had dozed off behind the desk while planning their fun activities. He got up and stretched feeling some pains in his back. He frowned and was heading toward the washroom when he heard a knock on his door. He went and opened it and it was one of the servants who had come to inform him breakfast was ready"What
Derrick and Lily are finally in California and decided to visit Griffith Park as their first fun activity. Lily was so happy and amazed by the beautiful sights. She wanted to see the merry-go-round next after having an ice cream.At the ice cream shop, she chooses her flavour and Derrick decides to settle for the same flavour. He took out his wallet to pay for the ice cream which Lily had already started eating with a smile on her face. "Looks like this ice cream is not going back," Lily said as she ate her ice cream.Derrick smiled at her and went inside to get them a bottle of water to take to their next destination."Lily!" came a female voice from behind Lily.Lily turned around in the direction of the voice to find out who it was after hearing her name for the second time."O my god, Lily is you. Long time no see," the strange woman said to Lily and offered her hand for a handshake. Lily smiled awkwardly as she didn't recognize the person but accepted the handshake. She could te
Derrick and Lily visited Griffith Park to have fun. Everything was going well until Lyla showed up. Lily could not recognize her due to her lost memory. Lyla came to California purposely to end the relationship between these two as she believes she is meant to be with Derrick.She took advantage of the fact that Lily had lost her memory to create an impression that she and Derrick were a couple.Lily, even though she does not recall any love relationship between herself and Derrick, was falling in love with him in this new life of hers. She felt really hurt seeing Derrick and Lyla kiss."He has never told me he loves me," Lily thought. "Why do I feel this way," she pursed her lips."Lily!" came Derrick's voice after a knock on her door."Are you sleeping? Is our movie night remember?" Derrick reminded sounding very calm and excited.Lily quickly wiped the tears from her eyes. "Get a hold of yourself," she thought and dragged herself out of bed to answer the door."Why do you want to de
The words played on Lily's mind multiple times like a recording on a loop, he is going to be a father. Derrick returned home with lots of excitement about all the things he had planned for Lily. Tonight, he was going to tell Lily they are a couple. He had wanted her to gain her memory, but he got the feeling if he didn't do it now, things might go bad."Where is Lily?" he asked not seeing her anywhere in the living room as he had expected."Sir, she is in her room" replied the servant."Since morning?" Derrick inquired with concern."No, sir, she came down for breakfast and went back to her room," replied the servant.The servant said, turned to leave but recalled something and turned to face her boss again."Sir, you had a visitor, a young woman, but I called ma'am for her since you were not around," the servant said. Derrick squinted his eyes upon hearing this news, but quickly brushed it off and headed toward Lily's room without asking for any details about the said visitor. He kn
Lily leaned on the car for support as her legs could not hold her. Her whole world was spinning as the ground was slipping from beneath her. The scene from the restaurant was stuck in her eye. She sees it when she closes her eyes and still sees it when she opens her eyes. It was like a nightmare she could not wake up from.Feeling hurt, she spoiled her nicely done hair, removed the jewellery and threw them away as she wailed in pain."Why will he do this to me?" Lily questioned still leaning against the parked car in the car park.The spa, the make-up, the dress, the ride to the restaurant and the welcome by the waiter, she had thought it was for her, only now did she realize it was all a mistake."It was all for Lyla, not me. How did I get my hopes up?" Lily cried wondering why she felt so hurt by this scene.She began to walk away unsure of where she was going. The owner of the car she was leaning on, arrived at the car park and heard the sobbing of a woman in the quietness of the ca
Derrick had come to California for a vacation with Lily. Sadly, this is the end of the vacation. He needs to find Lily and explain things to her. He hoped Lily would believe him. He took his car keys and stepped out of the apartment saying nothing to the servants.At another location, the time reads 11 a.m. Lily woke up from her sleep. She had managed to catch a few hours of sleep after tossing and turning in bed with the image of Derrick and Lyla on her mind. She went to the washroom and took a shower. She stood in front of the mirror to dry her hair. For some reason staring at her reflection in the mirror, thoughts of Derrick filled her mind. She quickly moved away from the mirror and entered the bedroom. She looked at the dress she wore the previous day. The purple and white gown. It was the only dress she had now. She sat on the bed in a bathrobe lost in her thought when she heard a knock on the door. She went to answer the door and saw one of the hotel staff holding a bag which
Lily went with Victor to the stadium and agreed to play a football match. It was fun for them as the whole team was served Lily's favourite dish, lasagna. Just like that, the day was gradually going by for Lily. Derrick, on the other hand, was still furious with Lyla for ruining his night with Lily. He warned her about what he would do if he didn't find Lily. Lily, David, and Victor visited a popular restaurant and had lunch there. David left after, leaving Victor and Lily. "Lily, would you like to talk about the last night?" Mr McClean asked.Lily's smile froze and she lowered her head."I can understand how you feel, but sometimes talking about it helps ease your pain and who knows you will get good suggestions on how to deal with it. A problem shared is a problem solved, or half solved," he said. "that is better than nothing at all," he added.Lily sighs and narrates the night event to Victor, and he listens attentively without interrupting till Lily finishes her story."This doe
