“What the hell, Ava?” Theo shouts back while helping Nora straighten. “Why would you push her likethat?”
Ava doesn’t say anything. She just grabs her head and begins to slowly shake it. I get a bad feelingabout this. Something wasn’t adding up. Why the hell wasn’t she happy to see her parents?
I feel the answer deep inside me, but I block it. Refusing to acknowledge it. Call me delusional, orwhatever the fuck you want, but I refuse to accept it. Ava was whole and well. That was the only truth I
was going to accept.
“Let’s all just calm down,” the doctor begins. “I’m sure there’s a perfectly good explanation for why Ava
reacted the way she did. It’s not good to agitate her.”
Ava looks up. Emotions war inside of her. Her eyes are tearing up, and that’s when I realize that she
doesn’t understand what the hell is going on. She is confused and on edge.
“No.” Theo growls. “I get she just woke up from a coma, but I want to know why the fuck she’s beingsuch
a brat.”
Ava, hearing the words, cowers. Cursing, I get up, sit on the bed, and bring her into my arms. She grabsonto me and holds on as if her life truly depended on it.
She faces Theo and Nora, tears running down her face. “I’m sorry. So sorry. But she came at me, and Ididn’t know who she was. She scared me.”
My arms tighten around her as we stare at her in shock. God. Please let it be that I heard her wrong.That my fucking ears, for some unknown reason, weren’t functioning well.
“Ava, dear,” the nurse calls. “You know this two.”
She shakes her head vigorously before wincing in pain.
“No, I don’t, I don’t know who they are,” she cries. “Why does everyone think I know them? Should Iknow them?

remembered me. Fuck, was I wrong.
“They’re your parents,” I whisper as I look at her face for reactions.
“What?” she all but screams. “No, they’re not, Kate and James Sharp are my parents. You know this,Rowan; why are you saying otherwise?”
“He’s not lying. You’re our daughter, I’m Nora and this is Theo.” Tears fall down Nora’s face, and hervoice

Ava just shakes her head. “No, you’re not. I would know. I would remember something like that.”
Doctor Charles cuts in. “Clearly something is wrong, so let’s do a few tests.”
He comes straight to her and takes out a flash. He shines it in her eyes before switching it off. Next, he
asks her to open her mouth wide, and he checks her tongue.
“So far, everything seems pretty normal, so that’s good,” he tells us before focusing on Ava. “Do you
remember what happened to you?”
“No”
“Can you tell me what the last thing you remember is?”
She seemed hesitant at first. As if she is embarrassed or something. Finally, after a while, she speaks.
“I remember going to sleep. It was mine and Rowan’s anniversary, and he didn’t show up.”
Damn it. I missed all of our anniversaries just to spite her. She is a romantic at heart, so anniversarieswere important. I knew this. That’s why I made sure to miss each one of them.
“Okay, and what day was that?”
“August, ninth, two thousand and nineteen,” she replies, as if it should be normal, but everyone elseexcept her knows that it’s not
