SON CHAEYOUNG'S POINT OF VIEW




Ring ring a ling~


I extend my left hand to turn off the alarm clock on top of the bedside table, then proceed to fix the comforter to cover my feet up until my shoulder. I've done all of that without opening my eyes; I guess it's a talent. I'm near losing myself again in dreamland when the mattress moves. Oh gosh, I think there's an earthquake; I should hide under the table. So I forcefully open my eyes, but I blink around 15 times when I saw someone beside me. I rub my eyes to make sure I'm not dreaming because, freaking shit, there is a naked woman in my bed! I look under the comforter covering my body to find out that I'm also naked. Oh God, what I've done?


I panicky roam my eyes around the room and spot clothes on the floor, which I assume is ours. So I slowly sit up, but before my feet land on the ground, the stranger on my bed moves her left hand on the part of my bed like she's reaching for something. She frowned when she touches the empty part of the mattress. Gosh, should I sing a lullaby? I don't want her to wake up and see this mistake we've made. I am so close to humming a song when her eyes open slowly.


"Good morning, love." Mumbled the stranger before she sits up. Oh gosh, I saw a glimpse of her naked upper body before I shut my eyes close.


My eyes are still closed when I feel movements on the mattress; maybe that stranger will get her clothes — but my soul almost left my body when someone hugs me in front. We fall back in the bed together; she's on top of me while her head is on my chest, and her hands are roaming around my torso. I know this is a sin, but I can't lie that I like the feeling of her warm body against my skin.


"Uhmm, I — th-thank you — for last — night." She slowly lifted her head then crawled upward to give a smack on my lips. My eyes are still wide open when she peppered my face with her kisses.


"I love you so much, Chaeyoung." I'm not surprised that she knew my name. Maybe we exchange a few backgrounds about ourselves before our heated battle.


"Do you want to change into comfortable clothes before I show something?" I nod to her; it's like I'm under her spell.


After wearing a shirt and sweatpants, I go out of the master bathroom since the stranger told me to hurry up because she'll show something important. I reach the bedroom and saw her fixing something on the flatscreen tv. She noticed my presence, so she immediately gestures me to sit beside her. And again, I follow her instructions.


"By the way, let me introduce myself; I'm Mina." She muttered when I sit beside her. I extend my hand for a handshake, but instead of holding my hand, she grabs my nape and kisses me. Okay, this woman has a thing with kissing.


"You'll be watching a short video, then after that, go to the kitchen so we can eat our breakfast." It's like I forgot how to speak, so I nod to her again. But before she walks out of the room. She kissed me again, but I feel something weird on my stomach. What the hell is this woman doing to me?


"I love you, Chaeyoung, I always do, remember that." Mina reassured before closing the door.


I clicked the remote, and I was surprised to see myself on the screen.


"Good morning Chaeyoung, it's fine to be surprised, but please don't be shocked by the next things I will say to you." Uttered the woman who completely looks like me except for her black hair because my hair is blonde.


"You were involved in a car accident six years ago. Thanks to your hard skull because you're still alive. But if affects your brain that caused you to suffer from short-term memory loss. I know you're not that smart to understand, so I'll explain it to you." She paused for a while.


"June 8, 2015, when you almost die after crashing your car in a freaking tree. After 17 days of being comatose, you woke up, and everyone thought that everything is fine, not until tomorrow comes. The next morning you can't remember everything that happened yesterday. The only memories left to you are the ones that happened before you lose your consciousness after the accident. And Doctors finally concluded that you are suffering from a short-term memory loss." Wait, what she's saying?


"It means you will not remember everything that happened for the past six years. Your life becomes a cycle; you are only living for a specific day, June 8, 2015, the day of your accident. And what do you remember doing that day? You are on your way to a restaurant to treat your family after receiving a promotion. And for five months, your family is pretending to live also on that specific day because that's how much they love you."


"But everything changes when you met the woman that I assume you saw naked on your bed. Well, most of the days, you guys are naked under the sheets, hehe." I blushed when I remember what happened this morning.


"That woman is the love of your life, the person that will never get tired to remind you of everything that you failed to remember. She's the person that will show how much she loves you even if you forget it the next day." The woman on the screen is now crying.


"And lastly, that woman is your wife; how lucky bastard you are, so go now because she's waiting for you at the kitchen." I didn't notice the tears falling on my cheeks before the video ends.
