| slowly opened my eyes, and | was immediately welcomed by an unfamiliar ceiling. | winced in when | felt a throbbing pain in myhead. | touched my head and noticed a bandage around my forehead.

| looked around the room that | was in. But nothing about it makes sense.

As | looked around the room, | couldn’t help but admire its fancy décor. The furniture was all elegant, and there were pretty lightsshining from the chandeliers. It was all very posh, but it’s something that doesn’t resonate with me. | don’t feel any familiarityaround this place.

But even with all the fancy stuff, | felt out of place. The room seemed too big, and the walls felt like they were closing in on me. Itwas like I'd walked into a whole different world.

| took a careful step forward, the sound of my footsteps echoing on the shiny floor. The room was so quiet, except for the soundof my own movements.

As | looked around more, | felt even more confused. The room seemed to keep changing, like it was playing tricks on me.

With each passing moment, | felt more uneasy. It was like | was lost in a maze with no way out. | opened the door, yet still, theplace doesn’t make any sense to me at all. | tried to remember where | was, but the more | tried, the greater the confusion thatengulfed my whole body.

As the searing pain shot through my head, | couldn’t help but let out a loud curse. “Damn it!”“Hey, take it easy. Don’t move around too much,” a voice said from nearby.

| looked up to see a man | didn’t recognize. He seemed to be trying to help me, guiding me back toward the room | had comefrom.

Who was he? And why couldn’t | remember him? | racked my brain, trying to recall his name, but it was like trying to grasp atsmoke. And then it hit me like a cold shower-| couldn’t remember who | was, either.novelbin

Panic welled up inside me as | struggled to make sense of what was happening. How could | not remember anything aboutmyself? And why was | in this strange place with a man | didn’t know?

“Sit down here; I'll get your medicine,” he said, leading me to the edge of a vast bed with a reassuring smile.

“Uh, excuse me,” | stammered, feeling disoriented. He turned back to me, his expression expectant as he waited for me tospeak. “Where am |? And | didn’t mean to be rude, but who are you?”

His features softened, and he approached me with a gentle smile, his eyes filled with warmth.“We got into an accident while sailing. You were out for a few days,” he explained, his tone gentle but matter—of-fact.

| tried to process his words, but my mind felt foggy, memories slipping through my grasp like sand through fingers. Frowning, |attempted to recall the events leading up to the accident, but all | could summon was a

sharp, throbbing pain pulsing through my head.He handed me a small pill and a glass of water. “Here, take this. It'll help with the pain,” he offered, concernevident in his eyes as he watched me closely.

| nodded gratefully, swallowing the pill with a gulp of water. As | did, a wave of dizziness washed over me, leaving me feelingdisoriented and off balance.

“Thank you,” | murmured, handing back the empty glass. “I’m sorry, but I still don’t remember much. Can youtell me where we are?”

He nodded understandingly. “Don’t worry. It’s okay. The doctor says you might have experienced memory lapses due to aconcussion. We're at my family’s estate on the outskirts of town. It’s a quiet place, perfect for

recuperating.”

His words only served to deepen my confusion. How did | end up here? And who was this man standing before me, tending tomy needs with such care and concern?

“Can you tell me your name?” | asked tentatively, hoping for some shred of familiarity to cling to amidst the chaos of myfragmented memories.

As Grant introduced himself as my husband, | couldn’t help but feel a wave of confusion wash over me. His words seemed toecho in the empty recesses of my mind, but they failed to stir any sense of recognition within me. His name, Grant, held nosignificance to me, leaving me feeling adrift in a sea of uncertainty.

“I'm sorry,” | murmured, my voice tinged with frustration. “I don’t remember you.”2/6

Grant’s expression faltered, a flicker of disappointment crossing his features before he quickly masked it with a forced smile. “It'sokay,” he said softly, though the strain in his voice was palpable. “You've been through a lot. It’s only natural that your memorywould be a bit foggy.”

But what he said didn’t make me feel any better. If Grant really was my husband, why didn’t | feel close to him? Why didn’t beingwith him give me that warm feeling of being with someone | love?

As | thought about these things, | felt more and more alone. It was like | was stuck in a bad dream, with people around me who |didn’t really know.

Even though | was confused, one thing was certain: | couldn’t trust my own memories. They were like pieces of a broken mirror,showing me only parts of what happened and making it harder for me to understand what was real.

With a heavy heart, | turned to Grant, the man who claimed to be my husband, and forced a smile of my own. “Thank you forbeing here,” | said softly, though the words felt hollow and insincere. “I just hope that with time, my memories will return, and |can truly be the wife you deserve.”

Grant nodded, his expression a mix of concern and understanding. “Il understand, my dear,” he replied, his voice gentle andreassuring. “We'll get through this together. And no matter what happens, I'll be by your side every step of the way.”

Despite his words of comfort, | couldn’t shake the feeling of unease that gnawed at the edges of my

consciousness. There was something about Grant's presence that felt off, like a puzzle piece that didn’t quite fit into the pictureof my life.

But for now, | pushed aside my doubts.

Through the course of the week, | discovered that my name was Dylan. Though | still don’t recognize the sound of my ownname, | tried to be optimistic.

Days turned into weeks as | tried to piece together the fragments of my shattered memory. But the more | searched, the moreelusive the truth seemed to become. Memories slipped through my fingers like grains of

Night after night, | couldn’t sleep as strange dreams haunted my mind. In the darkness, a voice called out, sending shivers downmy spine. It spoke a name | didn’t know, leaving me uneasy long after | woke up.

Lying in bed, | couldn’t stop thinking about the mysterious figure in my dreams. The voice echoed in my head, stirring upmemories | couldn't quite grasp.

No matter how hard | tried, | couldn’t remember where | heard that voice before. It felt like it came from anotherworld, beyond my fractured memory.

Was it a memory from my past, or was it just my mind playing tricks on me? | couldn't be sure, but | knew one thing: | needed tofind out the truth. Until | did, | wouldn’t be able to find peace.

Grant was more than kind enough to stay in another room. Despite him introducing himself as my husband, he’s nothing but astranger to me without my memory. Although | felt guilty, | don’t think it’s fair if we shared the same room while | don’t rememberanything.

As the days stretched on, | began to feel a growing sense of frustration and despair. It was as if | were trapped in a maze with noway out, stumbling blindly through the corridors of my own mind in search of an exit that seemed to recede further with eachpassing moment.

Today, | decided to go outside and walk around the area, hoping it could juggle some of my memories.

But as | approached the door, | saw Grant talking to a woman | can hardly remember. They seemed comfortable together, butsomething about it made me uneasy.

The woman noticed me and looked surprised, like she recognized me. | couldn’t place her face or name, which left me feelingconfused. Was she a friend or someone from my past?

| stayed by the door, watching them talk, feeling unsure about the situation. It felt like there was something hidden beneath thesurface, waiting to be discovered.

Their conversation seemed to taper off quickly once they noticed me, as if they were trying to avoid being caught in the act. It leftme with a sense of unease, like there was something they didn’t want me to know.

The woman hurriedly left, leaving me standing there with more questions than answers. | turned to Grant for an explanation.“Who was that?” | asked curiously.

Confusion knotted my stomach as | tried to make sense of his words. Something didn’t feel right about the situation, but before |could voice my concerns, Grant was already ushering me back inside.

“Pack your bag. We need to leave,” he instructed, his tone urgent.

The urgency in his voice only served to heighten my sense of unease. “What’s going on?” | pressed, desperation, creeping intomy voice.

But Grant remained tight-lipped, his expression unreadable, as he prepared for our sudden departure.“Grant, talk to me. What's happening?” | insisted.

“Shut up, and pack your bag!”

Grant’s sudden outburst caught me off guard, sending a jolt of fear coursing through me. His words were like a slap in the face,cutting through the air with an intensity that left me reeling.

| stood there, frozen in place, as the weight of his anger bore down on me. Never before had he raised his voice at me in such amanner, and | found myself at a loss for how to respond.

Trembling, | took a tentative step backward, my eyes wide with shock and confusion. “Grant, please,” | pleaded, my voicetrembling with uncertainty. “I don’t understand. Why are you shouting?”

But Grant's expression remained stony and impassive, his features hardened by a resolve that sent shivers down my spine.“There’s no time for questions,” he snapped, his voice clipped and cold. “Just do as | say and pack your bag. We need to leave

now.

His words lingered in the room, making everything feel heavy and dark. | couldn’t understand why he was so upset all of asudden. And why did he want us to leave right away?

Feeling uneasy, | started packing my things as he commanded. But inside, my mind was racing with worry. Why was thishappening? What had | missed? And what does that woman have to do with all of these?

With little time to spare, | hastily gathered a few essentials as Grant hurried me out of the house. His urgency was palpable as hepractically dragged me towards a small boat docked just behind our temporary residence.

Without a moment's hesitation, we embarked, the engine roaring to life as we set sail. The destination remained5/6

As we Sailed along, | glanced towards the horizon and saw several boats heading towards the island we'd just left. It made meuneasy, wondering why they were coming and if it had anything to do with us leaving so suddenly.

| looked over at Grant, but he seemed lost in his own thoughts, his gaze fixed on the ocean ahead. Despite the questionsswirling in my mind, | decided to remain silent.

As the island gradually faded from view, | tried to reassure myself that the approaching boats had nothing to do with us.147
