The Palace Hotel
Mr Jacob Hernandez's eyes were fixed at Thera for a couple of moments. She was sitting on a couch while the old man remained seated on his swivel chair, his elbows rested across the long working table.
How is she going to start asking her questions? What if everything she heard was just a rumor? Why would he even waste his time and money for her in the first place?
But the way Mr. Hernandez was looking at her, he sure had a lot of things to say.
"Perhaps, it's time to know about the truth, miss Thera."
Her heart was pounding like crazy. She had watched this kind of scene in a movie many times over. Will she be able to cope with whatever he's about to say?

Just when the elevator door was just inches from closing, Sean held it with his hand to keep it open. Thera raised a face. She wished she could blink her tears away, but how could she do so? Sean's serious gaze rooted her to the spot.“Nine years ago, I told myself if I could travel back in time, I’d choose not to meet you. Afraid I might ruin the girl who got nothing but love in her heart. I told myself to keep my distance from you. That I shouldn't have met you. But when you lost your memories, just thinking about you forgetting everything about me scared the hell out of me, Thera. No matter how hard I try to deny it, you are the last person I want to lose.”Thera swallowed hard. Hearing those felt like someone hit her hard on the chest. Sean's voice sounded so broken and sincere to her ears.“I know I cannot put back in your eyes all the tears you cried for me. I know that a single sorry can't
