I woke up feeling pain all over my body.

My eyes roamed the room. It felt weird waking up in a different. Confused, I asked my sister, who was sitting beside my bed while holding me hand.

“Where am I?”

I saw her eyes widened in shock. She stood up, let go of my hand and went to Seunghyun.

Then, the unexpected happened. She slapped him!

“This is all your fault. Now my unnie can’t remember anything! I hate you!” she was about to punch him on the chest but Jiyong stopped her.

‘What?! Can’t remember anything?’

“Honey, punching him won’t make Bom-noona remember. Why don’t we just call the doctor?” Jiyong said as he escorted Dara out of the room.

Since Seunghyun was the only one left in the room with me, I stared at him.

I guess he still hasn’t recovered from the shock (Dara’s slap).

Then, I thought of a crazy idea.

‘They think I have amnesia, and so I’m going to play along. This way, Dara would hate Seunghyun. If I can’t have Seunghyun, I’ll make sure he can’t have Dara also.’

-------------

“There seems to be no problem with her. I’ve check her x-rays several times and I didn’t see any fracture in her skull. Most likely, it’s just a head trauma.” Doctor Leen explained to Dara.

Dara hugged me and I felt my shoulders becoming wet.

“Unnie, don’t you remember me? It’s me Dara, your sister!”

I wanted to cry and stop this pretension. My sister is crying because of me, because of my selfishness. But, there’s no turning back now. I can’t say that I have no amnesia. If I say the truth, Dara might get mad at me.

So, I did the only thing I could do right now. I hugged my sister back.

------------

Seunghyun’s POV

Jiyong practically dragged Dara out of the hospital. Now, I’m here alone with Bom (which is the reason why Dara doesn’t want to leave in the first place).

Honestly, I don’t know what to say to her considering she can’t remember anything.

But then, this is my chance to undo all my mistakes. She can’t remember what I have done anyway.

So, I approached her and I could see the shocked expression in her face.

“Get away from me! I don’t want to see you!” She screamed as she threw a pillow on me.

I stared at her with disbelief. She remembered what I did?

But then, she continued what she was saying.

“Dara said that you’re the reason why I’m here. If she hates you, then I hate you too. Now get out of my room!”

I didn’t wait for her to say it again. I escorted myself out of the room.

I sat on the bench near her room to think.

I really thought that she remembers everything.

‘No! Bom can’t lie about his thing. God! Seunghyun! Why are you over thinking about this thing? Can’t you just accept that you’re the one to blame?’

-------------------

Bom’s POV

Jiyong dragged Dara out of my room. And now, I stuck with the jerk.

I saw him walking towards and I panicked.

“Get away from me! I don’t want to see you!” I screamed as I threw a pillow on him.

I saw the confusion in his face. God! I think I just slipped. Great I just blew my cover. Think fast Bom! Think fast!

“Dara said that you’re the reason why I’m here. If she hates you, then I hate you too. Now get out of my room!”

To my surprise, he did immediately get out of the room. I didn’t even have to repeat it.
But now, I really didn’t matter to me if he went out or not. I just want to make sure. Was I able to convince him, or not?

-----------

Dara and Jiyong just left and I’m here alone in my room again.

For some odd reasons, I’m beginning to enjoy my alone time because these are the times I could actually think.

I still felt a little bit guilty- even if a week has already passed already- for pretending not to remember anything especially now, since I could feel Dara’s frustrations. She wants me to remember. That’s the big problem. How could you cure someone who’s not even sick in the first place?

Sigh.

Then, I saw the door opened and I know who’s about to come in.

So, I closed my eyes and pretended to sleep.

I heard his footsteps as he was walking towards me.

I guess he sat beside my bed.

Then, he held my hand. I almost opened my eyes, but I remembered that I’m pretending to be asleep.

Damnit Seunghyun, all my anger, all my pain, just one touch, and all of those are being washed away.

“You know Bom, I wish you would never remember the past…” he started.

‘What the hell!’ I was really tempted to open my eyes so that I could punch him on the nose, but then, he continued what he was saying.

“I want us to start anew. I don’t want you to remember those words I said to you. I don’t want you to remember the pain I inflicted upon you.”

I’m speechless.

“If only I could turn back time, I would have corrected my mistakes. But, I know I couldn’t. That’s why I’m using your current situation as my chance—my chance to be back in your life again. You’re making it hard for me though. You won’t even let me stay in the same room with you for 5 minutes. But, I can’t blame you. After all the things I have done to you, I deserve this punishment. But just remember, I will not give up. No matter how long it will take, I will make you love me again.”

He gave my hand a gentle squeeze before he let it go.

I heard his footsteps again, and soon after, I heard the door shut.

I opened my eyes when I realized the coast is clear.

I look at my hand, the one that Seunghyun held. I could still feel the warmth of his hand in mine. But that’s not what worries me now.

‘Seunghyun, why did you say such things? Is it because you love me, or you’re just feeling guilty?’

Dara’s POV

We were about to leave the hospital when I suddenly felt thirsty. Jiyong offered to buy some drinks from the vending machine. So I just stayed on the bench outside the hospital.

Everything that has been happening for the past week frustrates me. Bom unnie can’t remember anything. It’s been a week already, yet she can’t recall any memory. The doctor said that she can’t find anything wrong with my sister. Damnit! Then, there’s Seunghyun, the guy who caused all of these. But no matter how many times I told him to leave, he never did.

“Dara?” I heard someone call my name. When I turned around I saw my bestfriend.

“Taeyang! What are you doing here?”

“Is that a way of greeting your bestfriend? Normal people would say hello you know.”

Taeyang. This guy could make the sun shine in a rainy day. He makes me so happy and I’m so fortunate to have him as my bestfriend.

“Seriously, why are you here?” I asked.

“I’m going to visit Bom-noona. Maybe if I talk to her, she could remember something.”

I don’t know, but I’ve been really affected by Bom-unnie’s amnesia that I would cry every time I remember it. Without me even knowing it, I was already bawling.

“Dara, don’t cry. You know I hate it when you cry.”

But, no words can ever make me feel better now and I guess Taeyang knows that.

So, he gave me what I need most right now--- a hug.

Little did I know that someone from afar saw us hugging.

Jiyong’s POV

We were already outside of the hospital when Dara said she was thirsty. So being a good boyfriend and all, I offered to buy her some drinks from the vending machine I saw earlier.

I left her and went back to the hospital building.

When I reached the vending machine, I realized that I have no loose coins.

So I went to the hospital cafeteria to buy something there instead.

I was walking back, with a can of apple juice in my hand, to the spot where I left Dara earlier.

But instead of seeing my girlfriend alone, I saw her in the arms of another man.

I felt some pain in my chest and I started to get dizzy.

I dropped the juice on floor as I clutched my heart.

The pain was getting more and more unbearable as very second passed.

‘Help! Someone…help.’ I wanted to shout but no words would come out of my mouth.

I saw a woman pass by, so I grabbed her shoulder. After that everything else turned black.
