"Sorry I was just able to cook just this much. You seem to have not that a lot of food left in your frig." I said to Chrome.
It looks like he had just woken up.
"You shouldn't have cooked. You're still weak from what happened." Chrome said.
"No. It's okay. I feel fine already. And it's the least I can do for you letting me stay here."
"I'm doing this because you saved me and I know you don't have someone to go right now so it's okay."

"Let's go." Chrome said.
"Where are we going?"
"To the doctor and also to buy some clothes."

"Good thing you're here already. I'm really worried about Raine." Raine's landlady told Lloyd as he arrives in London and in Raine's room.
"I'll take it from here. I'll find her myself. Thank you very much for your concern." Lloyd said.
The landlady then leaves.
"So this is her house. It's warm and cozy just like her." Lloyd said to himself.
He is worried and bothered about Raine's disappearance. But what happened last time they talked before Raine disappeared still bothers him. Did she disappeared because of what happened?
"Yuhu! Raine! It's us."
The doorbell suddenly rings. Lloyd opens the door.
"Excuse me? Do you need something?" Lloyd as asked the two girls in front him.
"Uhm. Is Raine home? We haven't heard from her in a while." one of the girls said.
"I'm Meredith and this is Miranda my twin sister. We're friends of Raine. We're also classmates." the other girl said.
"I'm Lloyd his fiancé. You may want to come in." Lloyd said.
"You're that fiancé of hers who's career is more important than Raine. But wait, where is Raine?" Miranda said.
" I'm know I'm guilty of that but there's a more important thing to resolve than that. Raine is missing and I don't where she went." Lloyd said.
"Missing? How can that happen?" Meredith said.
"She had been missing for about 4 days already. I don't know where to find her. I came all the way from the Philippines just to find her."
"The last time we saw her was the night of the graduation. We decided to go to the bar and celebrate but I know she left early. Unless.."
"Unless what?"
"Because I heard this news the next morning, when I passed by the bar that there was this girl who said to save this drunken guy and was rushed to the hospital. But no.. I don't think it's Raine. At least I hope it's not her."
"Can you tell me where that bar is? I want to make sure that the girl you are talking about is not Raine."
"We'll just go with you. We too are very worried about Raine."
"Thank you." Lloyd said.

"She has Dissociative Fugue Amnesia. It is common in fictional stories but it is actually a rare disorder characterized by reversible amnesia for personal identity, including the memories, personality and other identifying characteristics of individuality." the doctor said.
"For how long doctor will this amnesia last?" I asked.
"It may last up to hours or days but can it can also last for months or even longer."
"Is there a way she can remember things faster?" Chrome asked.
"There are therapies and also a medication to help her remember faster but those can not totally bring back her memory." the doctor said.

"Are you okay Lloyd?" asked Meredith.
"I'm okay. I just thought I saw Raine." Lloyd answered.
"Let's go. We could ask the nurse there." Miranda said as they walk inside the hospital that was said to be the place the girl who had an accident was taken too.
____________________________________________________
"Well. There's still one girl who got hit by a car for saving this one drunken guy." the Nurse said.
"Is the girl's name Raine Mallari?" Lloyd asked.
"There's no name here even the guy she saved. But based on the records here, she was dismissed two days prior to the accident."
"Do you know where she was taken?"
"Sorry but that's all I know."
"Thank you very much for your help." Meredith said.
"Lloyd, you might want to get the help of the police now." Miranda said.
"You're right." Lloyd answered.

"Pick all the clothes you want." Chrome said when we were in a boutique.
"Chrome, why are you helping me?"
"I owe you my life. Remember?"
"Chrome, this is too much. First the therapies, now this. I don't want to bother you anymore. Even though it's hard I'll just try to remember things even though it would be a slow process. Also the clothes at home are enough. And don't reason that you owe me your life. Because it is already paid since I owe you my life too."
