By the time Vanessa came up to Elena’s room, Elena had already gotten into her dress. She was struggling with the zipper at the back of the dress when Vanessa came in.

“hey, I’ll help you with that.” Vanessa offered.

Elena smiled and turned her back to Vanessa. Vanessa helped her with it. Then Elena turned to face her.

Vanessa drew Elena in for a tight hug.

“oh, Elena. It's so glad to have you back. oh my. I thought I would never see you alive again. You scared the shit out of us all.” Vanessa supplied.

“I’m so sorry Nessa.” Elena squeezed in deeper. She didn’t even notice how easy it was for her to call Vanessa, Nessa. Somehow, even though the previous Elena (who initially owned that body) no longer existed and her memories were gone, her brain still retained some spark from the sight of pleasant people or places. Elena could still feel those things. She had first noti

He had never been there but had been drawn to it after seeing an interesting advert about the restaurant some days back. so he had made a mental note of it. And when his brother asked that they have dinner together, the restaurant had popped right into his head. He had been so tensed since his former roommate and friend, Fred Cooper died. And it didn’t help that he was now being charged with the murder. And was facing the possibility of spending the rest of his life in prison. For a crime, he did not commit.

    Cameroon sat at the passenger seat of his BMW. His brother, Austin was driving. Austin’s girlfriend was at the back of the vehicle. The car was dead silent. Austin was the first to speak. “maybe we should find somewhere else.” Austin looked into the mirror so he could catch his girlfriend’s eye. She noticed and looked up to him. “where are you thinking?” she asked. “anywhere I guess. It will be difficult to find a good place on such short notice. Do you think you could find something nice with your phone? Maybe check online?” “Sure babe.” She responded as she pulled out her phone. Cameroon finally spoke. “I don’t want to go anywhere. I just want to go home.” “Nope, buddy. We agreed. We’re spending tonight together.” “I am not hungry anymore.” Cameroon objected. “fine. Let’s go to a bar then. You aren’t spending tonight alone.” Austin stated with authority. “what are you now? Dad?

  • Reborn For Love   Call me

    Dave and Susan had arrived at the hospital some minutes after the ambulance brought Elena in. Vanessa had called them about Elena’s fainting episode. They had rushed to the ER. Worried that something worse had happened. That the faint was connected to the coma she just came out of. Dave especially was upset. He blamed himself. He had felt uncomfortable when Elena stepped out with her friends, so he felt responsible for not insisting that she stay back. Susan had to remind him that Elena wasn’t a little girl anymore. That he couldn’t exactly make Elena stay home just because he said so. And she had felt that spending the night with her friends would help with her memories. Or at least help her get back on track. After they got to the hospital, the ER doctor had already checked on Elena and ran some tests. The doctor had told them that the faint was a random one and nothing in her brain seemed to have triggered it. She was probably tired. The do

    After a long eventful night, Austin dropped Cameroon off at his house. Cameroon said goodbye and walked into his empty house. As he approached the stairs, he didn’t feel the emptiness that usually accompanied him whenever he came home. On this particular night, he felt at ease. Peaceful even. He walked into his house and fell on his couch immediately. He didn’t turn on his lights. He picked up his phone and dropped it back so many times. Like he had done since he left the hospital. He was waiting for her call. And it didn’t come. He gave himself a light smack on his head. How stupid he had been. How stupid. He should have taken her number instead. What was he thinking? Why did he ask her to call him? He smacked himself again. How stupid he had been. As he lay in the dark, he tried to remember where he had known her. And why he had been so drawn to her. He searched his head, he hadn’t even gotten her name. He felt stupid. Why did he fee

    Cameroon’s heart raced as he heard her voice. And her name. Elena. How appropriate. There was a long pause. None of them said anything. They simply listened to each other’s breathing. His own, deeper than hers.Elena was the first to break the silence.“hi.” She said one word. One word that held the deepest emotions that any human could ever convey. And he felt it too. The connection.Cameroon ran his hands across his hair.“hi.” He responded.Another silence followed.He connected the call to the speakers in his car. By the time she spoke again, her voice traveled around the car.“what are you up to?” Elena asked him.“I’m sitting in my car. Was going to take a drive to my lawyer’s office.” He replied.“lawyer. Do you want to share?” Elena inquired. “sure. “Cameroon said. He wanted to share with her. Tell her everything that was going on. He had the urge to spill it all. Not hold back.

    Dave, Elena’s father coughed. Deliberately. But they didn’t bulge. They were locked in each other’s arms. Dave coughed again. Then again. This time, Elena pulled away. Cameroon let her go easily. His hands lingered on her hair. She had washed them as he suggested. And she hadn’t dried them. So they were still wet. He let her go. Elena turned to face her dad. “I’m going out briefly with him.” Dave didn’t respond. But he had thoughts running through his head. He had lost his daughter, not physically but all her memories were gone. And he was helping her get back into a schedule. And here was this guy, an alleged murderer, wanting to take her away. He was uncomfortable. But he also realized that Elena was an adult. And even though he loved her, he had to always remember that she was responsible for her decisions.

  • Reborn For Love   Creating New Memories

    Elena sat by the door of her bedroom. Her back to it. she had her knees curled up and her head buried into them. She cried. She had not seen that reaction coming. Not after they had made such passionate love-making to one another. For minutes she sat and cried. Not loud cries but soft gentle deep tears. She heard Susan come up to the door. Heard her ask “honey. Are you okay/ would you like me to come in? or do you need a minute?” Elena didn’t respond. She pressed her back against the door and when Susan tried to open it, she was met with some sort of resistance so she didn’t bother. For the first time since she traveled back in time, Elena missed her home. The future. She allowed herself to think of her sisters, her mother, and her best friend, Cheryl. Elena opened the door to the memories. A door she had shut. And as she opened up to them, the memories and the emotions they held flooded her head. She couldn’t place it. She was sure he felt the same w

He had picked up his phone so many times but ended up putting it back down.He wanted her to come to him. He wanted her to choose him.And it was beginning to take forever. That made him sad.

He checked his phone first, no call had come in for him.Then he made his way to the bathroom. Before reaching the bathroom, his doorbell rang.His heartbeat surged.He guessed who it could be. He wasn’t expecting anyone and hadn’t made any orders.But he flung open the door.And there she was, Elena.He grinned. “come on in.” She accepted the invitation and stepped in.

And Cameroon Jerked. He swallowed again.“Babe,” he whispered.“yes.”“I want to get to know you.”“This is you knowing me.” She teased.He could see the laughter in her eyes.She got up from the couch, set her glass on her desk, and stood in front of him.He looked up at her.She started to unbutton her shirt.

    Friday arrived.It was a date night for Elena and Cameroon. And the perfect night. The night was slightly chilly. And the wind was stronger than usual.Elena had spent most of her day in the office. Preoccupied with work. She had caught up on almost all the backlogs and was the only person still in the office. The last person to leave checked out an hour ago. Even the cleaning service had finished up for the day.But not Elena. She was still working. Elena wasn’t exactly a workaholic, but on this day, she simply wanted to pour out herself till she was empty. She had started out the day with a lot of backlogs.That was one of the reasons.And the other reason? She was distracting herself.From thinking about him. Not him, Cameroon. But him, Jake.She had tried so hard to sleep the previous night. But had ended up staying late till 4.00 am and she was up again at 7.00 am.She couldn’t stop her brai
