The Lies Between Us (Elite Series 2)

CHAPTER 5 : PRIOR

CHAPTER 5 : PRIOR

"What's your name again?."

They've been asking me the same question  multiple of times now. Hindi ko alam kung para saan.

"Erica Amexyl Prior."

Gaya ng mga unang reaksyon nila sa sagot ko , kumunot ang kanilang mga noo.

Kasama ko ngayon iyong doktor kanina na nandito ng magising ako. Kasama niya iyong Pierce. Saglit itong umalis kanina at bumalik na may kasamang dalawa pang lalaki. I feel  lot of total awkwardness since I'm just the woman in here. Mabuti na lang at may dumating na nurse na babae. I don't feel comfortable with this strangers. Isama mo pa iyong isa na kung makatitig ay wagas.

"Do you remember anyone you know?."

Mula sa lalaking nakatitig sa akin ay bumalik ang mga mata ko sa doktor na kanina pa nagtatanong sa akin.

"Wala." sagot ko.

Nakakapagtaka nga na wala ako masyadong maalala.

"Do you remember anything beside your name?."

Nag-isip ako.

"My birth date." I answered after a series of date appeared in my mind.

"What's your birth date , then?." Peirce asked.

"February 6 , 1994."

"Iyon ang isinagot niya sa akin kanina." baling niya sa mga kasama. "I don't think she has an amnesia. Maybe her memory is just altered at some point that some of the information she used to remember doesn't exactly same as the real information about her."

"But she seems like a different person if we take out the fact that she look like Miss Allison and they share the same name." sabi ng doktor.

"She's Miss Allison earlier. Hindi ko lang alam kung anong nangyari at nagkaganito na siya ngayon." Binalingan noong Pierce ang dalawang kasama niyang dumating na tahimik mula kanina.

"Kayong dalawa ang naiwan kanina kasama siya. What did you do?."

"She spent the time with Fitch." sabi noong pinakilala sa akin ni Pierce na Law.

Sa pagkaka-alala ko , mayordoma niya ang biktima ng krimen na pinaparatang nila na gawa ko.

Iyong Fitch naman na sinasabi niya ay nakatitig parin sa akin. Hindi ko mabasa ang titig nito pero hindi ko gusto. Wala rin akong maalala na nagkita na kami o kilala ko siya. Though , his name sounds familiar like I've heard it before.

"Ring a bell , Mr. Ang?."

Fitch give Pierce a cold glance.

"She's not like this , earlier." aniya.

Tiningnan ako ni Pierce.

"Do you remember him?." He pointed his finger at Fitch.

Tiningnan ko ito mula ulo hanggang paa bago umiling.

"No."

"Are you sure?." paniniguro niya.

"Definitely."

"He's your what—boyfriend?."

Napatingin ako noong Fitch. Our eyes met.

"Fiance." paglilinaw niya.

Silence came. His stares are intimidating. His eyes. His nose. His lips. They all are.

My head ache. I went blank when a scene flash through my eyes like a rewind of a movie. I saw the little five years old me. There is a man. He's walking towards me while I'm sitting at a couch. I can't see his face. It was blur. He kneeled in front of me and held my hand. It was warm.
