*SILIA* It soon became clear where we were going to when I saw the familiar neighborhood I had seen just this morning come within my sight again. I hadn’t expected him to take me there but given that this was probably the safest place where no one would try to interfere with us, he had chosen it. I wondered if there was another reason but nothing came to my mind and quietly looking out the window I remembered how it had felt before when we had been together and going through these exact places around in a car. It had been such a peaceful and happy journey then, going back to the place that I had come to know as a home for me with dreams of living as a family with Draven. But now I could hardly breathe sitting with him in this car going in the direction of the same house that had the memories of the past I had forgotten. When he finally parked the car in the driveway he got out first coming around to open the door for me before I could get out on my own. He was silent the whole way

*SILIA* I had a fear gripping me as Draven took his time trying to understand what he had said. “So you don’t remember anything about the accident?” he asked and listening to him talking about it made me feel better. At least he hadn’t recoiled from my touch and was still holding my hands. “No, can you please tell me about it? It has been messing with my head trying to remember what happened,” I said and he looked doubtful at my words. “Are you sure? It might be that your brain is purposely keeping it away from you to save you from feeling hurt. It might trigger a trauma for you,” he said, looking worried now that I had revealed the truth to him. While he was worrying bout me my baring as already searching for memories and answers realty to an accident. My head throbbed again like it did every time when I wracked it for an answer but I hid the discomfort from my face to have Draven tell me the truth. I felt like there was something vital that I was missing. I think I had seen one

*SILIA* “Do you think this is a good idea?” I asked, looking slightly hesitant as we headed towards my apartment. “Well it’s what we should do for your beloved friend for us to be together again,” Draven said sarcasm dripping from his tone. “But what if she becomes aware of our motives and tried to do something to us again?” I asked hating that I was feeling this strange fright from the thought of facing her again. With what Lisa had done and what her identity was it made me slightly wary of her now. All this while she acted as if she had been the only person to love me and care for me but she had just been using me to keep tabs on Draven. I felt a gnawing feeling in my heart every time that I thought about it. “Well if she is with the Fedelta then she is bound to know about our relationship soon enough. Besides if we try to hide this she might get apprehensive but if we become upfront about it then she might get confused. Although she will take some measures to make sure that you

*DRAVEN* Diana who was trying to act appreciative of our relatiophip and to show support had insisted that the four of us had dinner lunch together. I wasn’t very keen on it and neither was Silia but she still needed to act like a good best friend to her and had therefore agreed. Not trusting Lisa with the food, she had said that it was her treat and had insisted that she cooked to celebrate the occasion. “I’ll help!” the enthusiastic Asian sitting in front of me immediately said looking at me once and then dashing straight towards the kitchen by Silia’s side. I wanted to go there too but Lisa was purposely sitting before me, wanting to continue our conversation from before. “You must be happy then to have her with you again,” she said peeling an orange kept on the table before her. “Of course I am,” I said looking back at the window of the open kitchen to see Silia talking to Nick enthusiastically. “You haven’t tried to betray me, right? It isn’t on purpose,” she asked and I c

*SILIA*“This feels so odd,” Alfeo commented, watching me sitting before him, ready for a private meeting of the Calixes.“Agreed, it sure does,” I said as I stared back at him. Then moving my gaze from him and to the couple in the corner I said, “Well at least you only feel odd, look at Diana and Gavin over there. She is having a hard time trying to console him.”“It must be rough on him. He has worked here for longer than me and has been by Draven’s side for so long and yet the man had no idea who you were to his leader. Neither did Diana ever tell him. He is bound to feel betrayed,” Alfeo said, clicking his tongue at the frown clear on Gavin’s face as we watched Diana trying to sweet talk him and apologize.“I feel like Draven owes Diana a lot too. He literally has her apologizing to everyone,” I said feeling bad for her.“Well let’s not dwell on it, at least you are finally and officially sitting here with us and working alongside,” he said with a grin and I nodded my head at him.
