Alex's POV"You don't have to fear." I told her to dump the eatery's nylon in the bin."How are you so very confident?" She asked."I guess I inherited that from my dad." He answered.She frowned. "I haven't even met your dad.""You can open the door now." I answered and she opened the door immediately. Mom walked in with a frown."I thought you guys were making children. I love your food." My mom said and sniffed the air.Lisa giggled excitedly as she tasted the food. "it's nice but I'm surprised.""What Mom?" I asked, concerned."How did you manage to cook this meal within thirty minutes. I can't possibly prepare a delicious dish within thirty minutes." She answered."Some are talented and some are not." Lisa said and I chuckled.My mom dragged her ear and squeezed it lightly. "Are you insulting me, woman?" She asked and I laughed.A knock was heard on the door. "I'll go get it." Lisa said and walked out of the kitchen."I shouldn't lie
Lisa's POVI looked at Alex, he couldn't even say a word. He was very chuckled. I looked at the food and forced a smile."Yes, it's my traditional dish and it has many names, I don't know the name Alex told you but I call this meal, Rich carrot soup with rice." I answered.She smiled. "Rich? I didn't expect it to be poor, I enjoyed your noodles more and Alex called the dish, carrot pepper soup with mashed rice." She said and I laughed.I just couldn't stop myself from laughing, he called the food pepper soup. "Why are you laughing?" Alex asked, embarrassed."I'm sorry," I replied still laughing as we climbed the stairs. I opened his bedroom door and walked in. "It's just that the name sounds funny." I replied and laid on his bed.He frowned and locked the door. "At least, I saved you from my mother's disturbance. Aren't you going to eat tonight?I faked a smile. "I'm not hungry, your mother ruined my day." I replied as he sat down on the bed."I love you, Lis
Lisa's POVNext Morning.I and Alex stayed in the visiting room while the cops brought Oliver. He looked lean already and I felt pity for him. "We've gotten you out of here, you're free to go." I told him."I don't want to go."His words took me aback, I was shocked. "Why?" Alex asked, also shocked."I just don't want to go." He answered, adamant.I shook my head and squeezed his hands gently. "I'm not leaving here without you.""You should go, Kim and James next target is the both of you and I'm planning on working with them to save you." He explained.I frowned. "I'm not going to let you work for those bastards to save us, we're safe already." I said. "Living in fear is safe? Isn't it?" He ventured, cautiously.I looked at Alex unable to answer him. "Mom's having her blood pressure rise, she needs you. When she heard the news, she was demoralized." Alex lied and I looked at OliverHis face showed concern for his mother. "Where is she now?" H
Lisa's POVTears rolled down my cheeks as I stared at Alex who laid down on the hospital bed unconscious. Oliver walked in and placed his hands on my shoulder. "He'll be alright." He reassured me."It's been three days and he hasn't woken up." I reminded him with a worried expression. I was really worried that something bad would happen to him and I was not ready to lose him because I loved him so much."Kim and James are already in jail, you've got justice. The cops found the CCTV and the recording showed that Kim's men attacked him. They caught the waiter and he confessed." He revealed with a light smile.I nodded. It was definitely great news that Kim and James were already in jail but Alex was still unconscious and that was what made me sad. "I have a feeling all will be alright." I told him, I wanted to muster up courage.He smiled.Suddenly, Alex's hands moved towards mine and I almost screamed. "He's awake." I told Oliver who quickly ran to call the doctor.&
Alex's POVI walked into the house with Oliver and found Lisa on the sofa. It was surprising but I never asked them for a maid. I was even totally pissed off when I walked in and found her sitting down on the sofa comfortably."Are you dating her?" I was forced to ask."No, I'm not." He answered with a frown.I chuckled. "It's obvious that you're dating her because she's not behaving like a maid.""Because she's not a ....." He paused and stared at me. "Just leave her alone, don't make her angry." He added.I chuckled. "This is also my house and I won't tolerate any bad habits."My mom climbed down from the stairs and hugged me. "I've missed you my son and believe me, Lisa missed you too." She said and I felt dizzy.The name 'Lisa' seemed to affect me, I caught Oliver nudging her with an elbow.I held my head in agony."Why will Lisa miss me?" I asked loudly waiting for answers.Lisa stood up and walked towards me. It was obvious that she was crying. "Sh
Lisa's POVI quickly woke up the next morning and found Oliver staring at me. I didn't even realize that I didn't sleep in the guest room. "You should have had a headache by now, I didn't want to wake you up in the night, I had to sleep on the other sofa too." He said.I smiled with a nod. He was definitely right, I felt a sharp pain at the back of my head. I slept late thinking about things to help bring back Alex's memory. "I'm worried about Alex." I admitted as I yawned.He stared at the ground for a few seconds before turning up to look at me. "I don't know what to do right now. I'm actually fed up with everything, he doesn't even seem to know you.""True love will definitely bring back his memories."Oliver laughed and quickly stopped laughing when he realized the frown on my face. "This is definitely not the time to laugh. I'm trying to be positive here cause I'm seriously losing my mind.""We have to follow the doctor's advice, telling him anything right now
Lisa's POVWe walked into the cafeteria and occupied a seat at the back. Amanda irritated me with her lousy and naughty attitude."What will you like to have, sir?" The waiter asked Alex as he came to us.Alex looked at Amanda before looking at me. "Lisa, what do you think I should eat?" He asked."I don't know." I answered."You should tell me, I'm interested in whatever you eat." He told me."Don't you care for my opinion?" Amanda asked and touched his cheeks.I almost stood up to slap her, "I don't care." Alex answered bluntly and I chuckled.He was never interested in Alex, I believed that the both of us were soulmates. It was definitely true, we were both connected in a way.I squeezed his hands gently and he looked at me. "You should try Cobb salad.""What's that?" He asked."I'll explain it to you soon," I turned to face the water. "Bring two plates of cobb salad.""Make it three." Amanda said and eyed me.I laughed. "Whatever." I
Lisa's POVI looked at him, wondering if I should tell you the truth. "I can't tell you. That's for you to find out on your own."He touched his head and sighed. "I don't know, I get these weird images and there's always a lady there. I'm confused."I knew I was the lady but I couldn't do anything, I couldn't keep on hurting myself."You'll figure it out soon." I reassured him with a casual smile.He looked at my hands and pointed to my ring. "That ring! Are you engaged."Tears tickled in my eyes and I nodded. "Yeah, I was supposed to get married before an unfortunate thing happened to me." I explained, trying to hold the tears that wanted to come out of my eyes.He smiled and touched my cheeks. I wondered why he couldn't recall giving me the ring. He was the one who slid the ring through my finger and proposed to me but he couldn't remember."Amanda invited me for a party this evening, will you like to come?" He asked, politely."When did she invite
