Dominik POV
It felt like the worst pain I could ever imagine, as knowing that my beloved wife, that Victoria... Was in that state, was undoubtedly painful.
"We were able to save Miss Miller's life, however, I must inform you that we had to perform a dangerous surgery to save her, as, during the accident, your wife, unfortunately, had a severe blow to her head, which caused an internal hemorrhage that we had to fix," The doctor told us when he called us into his office to try to explain the situation in a slightly calmer way, "But to fix that hemorrhage, we had to enter a very deep part of Miss Miller's brain".
Sitting in front of the doctor's desk, what surprised me most about that situation was that Victoria's parents were so calm while we were together in the same space, so I remained calm, still not knowing the gravity of the situation I was dealing with Victoria's condition in this way.
"How deep doctor?" asked Victoria's mother with visible distr
Victoria POVConfused, I could only watch my hands silently, which were touching my bulging abdomen, which was sticking out too far over my hospital gown.This is so weird..."Good morning Victoria, it's good to see you awake," Says someone suddenly, entering my hospital room.Smiling softly, I turn in the direction of the door, replying, "Good morning Dr. Andrews... Yes, it's good to be awake."Everything had been confusing since I woke up, not only because I met so many people who claimed to be part of my life, but whom I could vaguely remember. Also because of my own condition, being pregnant? Really? This seems like a bad joke nothing more.But still, I had to get used to it and know that it is true, that I am pregnant, and that I had an accident that took away my memory. However, according to the doctor, I had a good prognosis, since fortunately, I had begun to recover a little of my memory, which meant that my condition was reversible
Victoria POVSometimes when I think of my memory as a movie, I can't help but think that there are some scenes that I still don't... I can picture in my mind, no matter how many times people repeat them to me, they just aren't there, it's as if they never happened for me. And among those "scenes" which unfortunately I can't remember, is Dominik.I know who he is, he has even introduced himself to me and told me that he is my husband, that we have been married for almost a year, and that the child I have in my womb is his. But unfortunately, I cannot remember him.....I know he is my husband, and maybe that's why when I see his face so attractive, with those somewhat cold smiles he sometimes gives me, and those serious eyes; my whole body shudders, and my body trembles for him. Since my mind probably can't remember him, but my body can... And still, continue to love this man."Did you have fun talking to your family?" Dominik asks me when my mother and bro
Victoria POVThe days continued to pass, and as my body grew stronger and memories returned to my mind, my time in the hospital seemed to be coming to an end. My pregnancy was still a risky business, however, the doctor in charge of my condition told me that if everything continued to go as well as it had so far, he would soon send me home so I could rest there and recuperate. Which was very convenient, since Christmas would be in less than a week.Although that put me at a crossroads, because when I was discharged from the hospital and allowed to return home, which house exactly would I return to? With my parents? Or with Dominik?I know that when the time comes for me to leave this hospital I will have to make a choice, I will have to leave one of them aside. And that terrifies me, because I love them both, and I don't want either of them to be mad at me for not choosing to go home with them...So I'd rather not think about that too much while I'm still
Dominik POVJust as I had told Victoria, I leave the hospital to go to my company's office, since I hadn't been by there for several days, and there were matters I had to resolve since I was still the head of my company and there were several sectors that depended on me completely."So you came..." Aneliss says to me, welcoming me into my own office."I told you I would" I replied simply, walking over to my desk, at which she was sitting."You said the same thing two days ago, and then three days ago. Don't blame me for not being able to help but doubt that you would come...""It's making you responsible, I like it."Due to my long and complex trip in Europe, during my absence it was Aneliss who was in charge of the company, taking my place as the head of the company and also as the one responsible for everything. So it was a bit strange, but also funny to see her sitting in what was once my place, looking so tired and taking care of everyth
Dominik POVSurprised, I didn't know what to answer her, as besides all the pain I was feeling from what she had just told me, I was also confused, not understanding why she was calling me a liar and was so angry at me all of a sudden."Victoria... I..." I say trying to reason with her."Stop it, I don't want to listen to you, I don't want you to tell me any more lies and entangle me with your words," She says to me, noticing herself really angry, "Go away please."Without giving up I keep trying to reason, so I tell her, "Victoria, I don't know what you are talking about."I was being extremely sincere, as I had absolutely no idea why she was calling me a liar so suddenly as if I had done something really wrong. But upon hearing me, Victoria lets out a wry laugh, still not looking at me."Are you really going to fake insanity now?""Victoria, I'm not faking anything...""Perfect, then let's talk about it if you want to remembe
Victoria POV It was hard. Talking to Dominik like that, having to confront him and cut him out of my life, saying such horrible things to him that even I was hurt... It was probably the hardest thing I've done in a long time. Not because I wasn't angry at Dominik, if I'm angry, I feel angry at him and his silly lies. But somehow, deep down in my damaged memory, I know that I am completely in love with that man, there is a part of me that loves him, and that part is the part that is now suffering endlessly. "It's for the best Tory," My mother told me, caressing my back gently: "That man didn't deserve you, besides you are very different, completely incompatible people. Don't worry daughter, we will soon find a better match for you." "Loves like this come and go, Tory, I'm sure you will soon feel better when you meet someone else who will make you much better than that man," Said my father convinced. After Dominik left, when we were inte
Victoria POVWith my eyes closed, I kept lying on my bed. After returning home I realized that my emotions were somewhat out of control from being back here and having so many memories, so my head hurt a little and I felt slightly unfocused.I wasn't sleeping, I had rested enough at the hospital, but I was with my eyes closed and quietly trying to calm down. As I stroked my abdomen on the fabric of my t-shirt, I felt my baby move every so often. I think my son is kind of shy, because unlike how it looks like in the movies and stuff, my baby doesn't move that much, and the few movements he makes are so gentle... I think he understands that I'm kind of weak and he doesn't want to bother me or something. It's so sweet...In the middle of this rest and quiet repose, I am surprised when I hear someone knocking on my door, ringing the doorbell. Somewhat bewildered, as we weren't expecting anyone from what I understood, I sit up stiffly in bed, while down the hall I he
Victoria POVI open my eyes in a beautiful place, lying on a soft and soft bed, I see through one of the windows the clouds, as if I am in a very high place, in a skyscraper. I realize in this way that in truth, I am on the top floor of one of the top floors of what seems to be an extremely high tower in the city. I don't remember this place, but somehow, I know I have been here in the past, and many times.Curious, I sit on that bed and walk to the window, watching the eternal sunset in the sky, as the sun practically doesn't even move, giving me to understand that I'm probably in a dream, and even though the cars and people below in the distance are moving, I'm just... I'm static in time.This is too weird a dream, so thinking to better explore the place where I am right now, I turn in the direction of the bed I was in just a moment ago, finding a photograph. That picture if I remembered it, was the one I had received in the envelope with the papers Dominik se
