Melody POV

I was still shocked in the state I saw Giovanni. He looked pale like there was no life in him anymore. Lorena assured me that he was going to be fine but I needed to make sure he was okay so I waited at the entrance of the theatre room.

"You need to get back to bed!" Lorena advised. "You are going to get sick again if you keep up with this."

"How long was I out!" I asked her.

"Two days," she replied.

I groaned out in frustration when I realized that I was on that bed for two days. I wondered what happened during that two days. "I had a dream or maybe it was a memory."

"Tell me about it," Lorena fixed my daughter in her arms and looked at me.

I began to explain the dream and when I finished, Lorena heaved a sigh. "What was that for?" I asked.

"It means it had something to do with your childhood."

"My childhood? My mother said that I was abandoned as an infant."

"What if that wasn't the whole truth. Mel, you don't just have dreams about people. It might be a memory you've longed forgotten. "

"But why would my mother lie to me?" I questioned.

"Some questions need answers too. " Lorena pats my back.

"What are you doing here?" A voice screeched behind us and when we turned, Marissa's green eyes landed on mine. Beside her was Giovanni's father and he didn't look too happy. "I thought I told you to stay away and you...." She pointed to Lorena. "You both planned this right?" She accused.

"I can explain," Lorena said to her.

"What did you do to my son?" She pointed an accusing finger at me. "You planned with your friend to ruin my family and you've succeeded. "

"Do not accuse me of something I knew nothing about!" I retorted. "I know you hate me but I was attacked too. Someone wanted me dead. How I'm I not sure it not you?"

"Excuse me, how dare you accuse me? I could never attack my son."

"But you can attack me," I accused.

"Don't put words into my mouth Melody." She warned.

"That's enough!" George came in between us. He pointed at me and I gulped because I had always feared him. "You can leave now. You are no longer needed. "

"I'm sure you are forgetting something George, I am Giovanni's wife," I admitted

George scoffed and moved closer to me, he raised his hand to hit me but Lorena stopped him. "That's enough!" She begged. "We will leave. "

"I'm not leaving!" I refused. "Giovanni is my husband. "

"But he has no memory of you," Marissa mocked.

"But now he does. He remembers everything, Marissa." I declared. Marissa looked shocked while George looked away. "He is my husband! I have every right to be here!"

"What's going on here?" Hope's voice sounded. She yawned and looked around her. Marissa gasped when she saw her. This was what I had been avoiding but now that it was revealed, I had no choice but to let them know the truth.
