Elena sprang out of her couch. Her escape episode into Toni was over. But that wasn’t the reason why she jumped up from her couch. She jumped up because she heard a strange noise. Someone was opening the door to her apartment.

She could see his frame through the glass. It was a guy.

She ran to get her spatula. That was the only thing she could think of to serve as a weapon then she hid behind her couch and watched the man enter the apartment.

He walked towards her. She ducked further.

“Elena? are you home?” The guy spoke loudly.

She didn’t respond.

“honey, did you go for a run?”

No response still.

She watched him take out his phone and dial. Her phone started to ring. Her phone was on the couch.

Then she got up slowly. He must be someone she knew before the accident because he obviously had a key and had her number. Plus he had called her honey.

“hey,” she said as she stood up fully.

He turned around.

“oh, honey. There you are.”

    Samantha watched as Elena slumped to the ground. She tried to catch her but was not able to. She wasn't able to move as hard or as fast as she used to. And that was because of her pregnancy. She wondered how quickly the lady had fallen. One minute, they were talking, and the next minute, the lady was fainting. How weird was that? She screamed “somebody. Help. Call 000 please.” Samantha bent over to reach the lady that had just slumped. Something really felt familiar about her as she looked down on her. But she still couldn’t place it. She held on to the woman as someone else called for help. Elena on the other hand was having a very different escape episode than she had imagined. She had escaped, but not into Emma. She needed a minute to figure out where she was. She could see some light. And hear a voice. She strained her ears to hear, and she could pick Emma’s voice. But it seemed like Emma was talking through a puddle of water.

    “welcome back honey,” Dave said as his daughter opened her eyes. “you had another faint.” He continued. He pressed the bedside bell on beside Elena. to signal a nurse for her. Elena smiled. She was back. Dave searched her eyes. Asking the silent question. And with the way he tweaked his eyes and drew in his brows, she could tell what was going on in his head. He was searching. To see if he had gotten his daughter back. Not her, but his daughter who had disappeared after the accident. He was searching to see if she remembered. Elena knew. Read his eyes. And shook her head in the negative. To show that she didn’t remember. She saw his eyes drop. His shoulders fall. Oh well. Elena looked away. she didn’t want to see the disappointment in his eyes. The heartbreak. Dave had gotten a call about his daughter and had rushed to her side. He had hoped by some miracle that she would remember. That this faint will somehow jolt her

And Cameroon Jerked.

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
