" Carol! Do you want to swim? Let Mommy and Uncle teach you how to swim!"

"Really?"

The six years old Carol hugged her mother's knees tightly with excitement. The girl's eyes watched her mother's smile. But she didn't understand the meaning of that smile. It was wicked but to her, it was the most beautiful one. Her mother who never gave her love, smiling at her was something unimaginable.

However in the next minute,

" Hahaha!!!! Look at this thing. Trying to live. Die, You unwanted burden. I don't know how I carried a trash in my precious belly. Die!!!" The laughter from her mother suddenly brought darkness.

Carol finds herself drowning in the dept of the ocean, bone-freezing, sleek black, like there is no dot of light. Black, only black, cold, suffocating and soul-crushing.

" Help me!" She shouts,

" You deserve to die!!! Die!!!" A voice follows.

" No! Help me! Please help me!!!" She screams, trying to swim but finds herself being tied with a chair. Her eyes open

    Sheila becomes shut immediately, her eyes widely open. She swallows hard, trying to laugh it off, " Faking power? You can't do anything!" " Well, Wait for a few seconds!" It hasn't even taken a second before the door open, revealing the director of the Hospital and Damien standing there with coldest expression that a person can ever see. Damien hurriedly wheels himself towards Carol who is trying to keep standing. ** Sit down! Everything is under control!** His expression turns soft one. She nods, watching her husband's expression changes into a coldest one. She flinches for real, because she never saw that expression before. " No question asked. I want both of them out of the hospital if you want me to keep sponsoring your hospital, Uncle!" Director Ferber shakes his head with quite disappointment, " Don't say that, Damien!

    Once she thought, maybe, just maybe there was a chance to be reborn, she would want to be with some people who genuinely love her.

But sitting here, right next to the Man who suddenly popped up in her life, telling her that he was concerned about her if knowing the truth, she became overwhelmed and stressed.

    It was chaotic. I watched the videography of our wedding day. So I was nothing but a replacement as a groom and I was the one who initiated it. Did I fall in love with her at first sight?

The strange thing is that, I remember everyone including my sister who died in the car accident but I don't remember anyone named Carol who was actually in my junior school. Is this even possible to happen? I mean my sister Carol used to live binge movies with cliché parts where male lead loses memories and some part of their life.

    Carol stands by Damien's hospital bed, her fingers gently wiping his hands with a damp cloth. The rhythmic beeping of the machines fills the room. It has become a constant reminder that life still clings to him. The nurse has just finished redressing his wounds, the scent of antiseptics hanging in the sterile air. It's been three days since the accident, and since then, she has made it her mission to be here, taking all the responsibilities, from the company to the hospital. Damien’s face is pale, almost unnaturally so, framed by the stark white bandages wrapped around his head. His chest rises and falls steadily, but the stillness of his body is unnerving. The doctors have said his condition is serious — a head injury that could have gone far worse — but they remain cautiously optimistic. Carol clings to their optimism like a fragile thread, afraid that letting go of hope would cause everything to shatter. Although at first they said it wasn't that life-threatening now it appeared

Tears begin to stream down her face, her lips quivering with pain and heartache. Eunice notices Carol staring at her, her hands trembling. Without hesitation, Eunice grabs Carol’s hands and signs carefully.**Everything is alright! Damien’s surgery went well. The doctors are hopeful. It was a brain injury, so it’s complicated, but they believe he will recover.**Eunice signs messily, worried that her misuse of words might unsettle Carol even more.Carol nods, her eyelids growing heavy.
