Love, lies and, secrets 86. Partial amnesia
ANNAMy heart started to beat really fast when I heard from the doctor that Alice had regained her consciousness and was not awake. I was genuinely happy at first because it's great that she finally woke up but then I recalled what got her into the accident in the first place and that was when I realised that the situation was more serious than I thought it was. My nerves were all over the place right now and I was even finding it hard to breathe and keep my legs still because of how wobbly and weak they had gotten. Alejandro had immediately gone in to see her but I was still glued to where I stood, trying to gather enough courage before going in. Alejandro and I haven't said anything to each other for a while now but it was more than obvious that we had a lot of things to say because this issue was much more complicated than we expected it to be and we didn't think an accident would even happen. I made up my mind to just push out any negative thought I was having and going to see
Love, lies and, secrets 87. The minds of the wicked
ANNA "I don't mean to be rude or anything mom but, can he please leave? I'm feeling very uncomfortable around him," Alice said, referring to Alejandro and I stared at her in shock. "None of you have said anything about who he was. Are you dating him, Anna? Is he your boyfriend? This man that seems like he's two times your age?" She blurted out and even with her memory loss, Alice still had a very sharp mouth. "I can't believe you, sweetheart. Just because I haven't been around, you went on to date such an old man? Are you serious, Anna?" she blurted out angrily and I couldn't believe how outrageous her thoughts were. "What? No!" I immediately replied, rolling my eyes in disbelief. "Don't make any assumptions Alice, cause you're getting it all wrong,' I quickly clarified. "I'm sorry that I made assumptions but he keeps asking me if I remember who he is and I honestly don't know him from anywhere and that's why I assumed that he was your boyfriend or something but hold on a second
Love, lies and, secrets 88. A Perfect Plan
ANNA"I genuinely don't understand what could have gotten into both of you and made you say something so ridiculous to your sister. What in the world were you thinking when you told her that nonsense?" mum asked, sounding a lot more upset than I expected her to be. I already knew that she was going to find it weird but I didn't expect her to look and sound so angry because Alice thinks that Alejandro and I are engaged to be married."It's not a decision that I made because I wanted to mum. We just had to say something because Alice was beginning to question Alejandro's identity and we could not possibly tell her that she was his wife because that was only going to make her feel more confused and worsen her condition," I said, trying to justify the reason behind Alejandro and I's decision. "She started to ask questions and we could not possibly give her the truth as a response so, we had to come up with a believable lie because we didn't want to make her feel confused and uncomfortab
Love, lies and, secrets 89. We can be together
ANNA "So how was it? Did she agree?" Alejandro asked, after bringing me to a secluded area at the hospital so we could talk freely. "May I ask what in the world you were thinking when you decided to tell such a life without giving me a heads up first? Did you even think of the consequences of your lies should we ever get caught? Why did you have to drag me into such a situation?" I asked, not hiding the fact that I was pissed. "I thought you would be happy about this especially since I only did it for our good. I mean, Alice doesn't remember anything that happened and her memory loss is definitely to our advantage," he answered. "Are you even listening to yourself right now? You know very well that we are the reason that she is this way and yet you're being so inconsiderate to the point where you suggest that we do something like this even when we've already done more than enough to hurt her. Do you not have a conscience or feel any remorse?" I asked, staring at him with an unimpr
Love, lies and, secrets 90. Back home
ANNA"OMG, Anna! This place is absolutely beautiful. What in the world!" Alice squealed excitedly as soon as she walked into the house. I didn't need anyone to tell me that she was super excited and I found it funny that she reacted this way to a house that was hers without realising it. "Hold on a second Anna, you live here with him and mom and dad let you live here with him even though you two are not married yet?" she asked, turning to look at me with a displeased look on her face. "Don't look at me like that, Alice. Yes, they let me live here cause I'm an adult now and they trust me," I said to her, leading her toward one of the available guest rooms. "Oh my goodness. Who would have ever thought our parents would be so open-minded? I could have sworn that they were even capable of locking us up just to make sure we don't have anything with men until we got married but here you are, living with your fiance. Still can't believe I was asleep for that long and missed absolutely ev
Love, lies and, secrets 91. Big Baby
ANNAIt has been over a week since Alice returned home and ever since her return, she has been nothing but a pain in the ass and a freaking cockblock in my life. She always ends up interrupting me whenever Alejandro and I were together and about to do anything and to make everything much worse, she doesn't stop acting like she's 10 years old. Alice has always been childish from the very beginning but it's as if this accident brought out the child in her because she hasn't stopped frustrating me with an attitude and getting on my damn nerves at every opportunity that she gets. I was already used to have been very childish and acting weirdly by asking random questions and trying to pry into people's life but now she doesn't just go around asking unnecessary questions, she also goes around dancing and singing like she was thrown back into childhood and I honestly don't understand how I can do with this any longer because it's becoming a pain and it's also getting unbearable. I sometim
Love, lies and, secrets 92. Need for a job
ANNA I could understand her need for a job but I definitely could not understand why she also needed a therapist alongside. "You want to see a therapist? What for? Are you okay? Is everything alright with you?" I asked."It's not exactly a serious issue but I just feel like I need to see someone so that I can regularly vent out my emotions and just express how I feel without having to worry about keeping anything to myself. I'm still not very used to the situation that I'm in right now so I feel quite frustrated and afraid and that is why I want to see someone just to let out all these emotions," she explained. I wasn't comfortable with what she just said and it kind of scared me to think that she was feeling this way and also the need to want to see a therapist. I thought that I was doing a good job at taking care of her and making sure she felt safe and content and I had no idea that she was afraid nor did I have any idea what she was afraid of. I couldn't help but wonder if I s
Love, lies and, secrets 93. Mentally Unstable
ANNAFROM UNKNOWN NUMBER: how can you be so wicked? How did you become such an inconsiderate person? If you think no one knows what you're doing and believe that you're going to get away with it, then think again because I'm going to expose you for everything and you're not getting away with such evilThe very second that I saw the message, I instantly knew that the person behind it was the unknown person that had been threatening Alejandro and me earlier. I had thought that he or she had finally decided to manage their business and not get involved in our lives but seeing how they still had the audacity to send a message like this made me panic and I was kind of fidgeting as I continuously read and read the message. It's been over a week now since Alice requested that she wanted to see a therapist but instead of coming up with an excuse that would get her to understand why she couldn't have one, Alejandro decided that we should both go on a trip for three days first and he still ha
