Remember Me

(S1) CHAPTER 20

Elijah: You're late. I was about to leave to the gym without you.

He says tapping his feet continuously as he crossed his arms.

Belinda: I'm sorry, I'm sorry,  I'm here now so let us quickly change and we'll leave right after. Kiko will meet us there.

he rolled his eyes and went back to the kitchen. We quickly got changed and headed to the gym. as we arrived, we checked in, and saw Kiko talking to somebody. She quickly spotted us tho. she smiles and waves as she approaches us.

Kiko: Babe! I'm so glad you invited me, I need to let off some steam. Some asshole dared to touch me and got mad when I twisted his arm. The audacity, right?

Belinda: Omg well deserved, I'd do that too.

She looked at Wyatt and then at Elijah trying to leave.

Kiko: oh pretty boy and you. 

Wyatt: you??!

Kiko: I'm kidding, I'm glad you're feeling better. I was worried

Wyatt: worried my ass. go away, I'm gonna go workout

Elijah: i'LL GO WITH YOU-

He says speedy walking along with Wyatt.

Kiko: BYE PRETTY BOY!

She giggles as she looks at me.

Kiko: Let's go. You wanted to box, right?

Belinda: Yes please, but before that, let's hit arms. Little warm-up yk?

We walked off and moved to the weights area. as we worked out, she was telling me about what happened with the guy that touched her.

Belinda: He said you were asking for it because of what you were wearing??? awe hell nah. what's wrong with men these days??

Kiko: I know right? ugh why cant they be more romantic, more...civilized. Like you're brother. he's kind of cute

Belinda: My brother is the opposite of cute. yuck... I can''t believe you like him. what do u see in him?

Kiko: Girl ever since he carried me, I was like....what do u call it...flabbergasted. no man in my entire life was able to touch me and intimidate me like that. I liked the difference, I liked the challenge. plus, he seems like good guy. he treats you with lot's of love and cares for you.

Belinda: Cuando le conviene, mendigo.... (when it suits him...bitch)

Kiko: What?

Belinda: No nothing. I mean, girl you scare him, that's something I've never thought Elijah would have that emotion on a woman.  Not to worry, I'll be your wingwoman. ill let you have some alone time with him.

I say nodding her shoulder. she giggles

Kiko: Okay then I'll be your wingwoman for Wyatt.

Belinda: Excuse me?? Wyatt?? What do u mean Wyatt??

Kiko: Girl please he never stops talking about you and you get redder than his fucking ears could ever get every time anybody mentions him.

I was gonna say something, but she wasn't wrong. I sigh

Belinda: let's go box, I gotta spill tea.

We got up and headed to the boxing booth. The windows were clear and we could see others. That's when I spotted Elijah and Wyatt. Kiko turns to see what I was looking and hanged her arm around my neck. let me tell you, we were looking in the same direction, but different views. it was Wyatt and Elijah. They were both doing pull ups. as they went up and down, you could see every back muscle movement, every sweat droplet, rolling down their face and back. We look at each other and coughed.

Belinda: If you don't say anything, I won't either.

Kiko: Deal.

we giggled and took off our hoodies. we both went to our punching bag, they were next to each other so she could hear what I was gonna tell her. we started to go with basic punches for now.

Belinda: Alright so let me tell you. I haven't said anything to anybody, not even my best friend. I'm telling you because I know you're good at keeping secrets.

Kiko: call me a pretty little liar

We giggled. Kiko punched straight, backed up and hooked it right in the middle. This bitch is strong. That hurt me.

Belinda: Ok so I wanted to have a little art date with myself, but Wyatt later on texted me that he wanted to join. he ended up coming and well he brought a lot of food. he knows me too well. since it was a art date, I gave him my sketchbook yk to let him draw AND BTW I TOTALLY FORGOT THERE WAS A SKETCH OF HIM SLEEPING, IM PRETTY SURE HE SAW IT, KILL ME. uhm. well after a while, when I finished my drawing, I sat down next to him and I was eating the cake he brought.

Kiko: awe y'all had a picnic? that's cute, never knew my brother was such a romantic.

Belinda: I know right? well anyways, while I was eating, im guessing I had something on my lips and he wiped it off. it was so embarrassing. he then told me he finished the drawing, I was like oh cool let me see it. When I saw it, I first noticed the little doodles he did but, when I saw what he drew, I started crying

Kiko: geez was it so ugly, you cried?

Belinda: nooo haha. He drew me. Not perfectly, but he drew me. It felt so... nostalgic. I know it doesn't seem like much like wow he drew you cool wtv. no, to me, that meant a lot. it made me remember this one time I  was handed a sketch of me from my dad. my mom was the real artist that's why I liked painting, but my dad wasn't very good at it, but he said he tried his best and handed me the sketch of me. when I looked at Wyatts drawing, I was reminded of them again. id been so busy with everything going on with my life that...I haven't had time to breath and think about my past, my parents.

I say stopping to get a hold of the punching bag.

Belinda: I remember. I remembered Wyatt. the day I met him, the days we used to have, the kiss he gave me in my 15-

Kiko: he kissed you? oh wow.

Belinda: Girl, he proposed to me. 

her hand slipped from the punching bag and looked at me so surprised. I giggle.

Kiko: That bold ass motherfucker.

Belinda: I still have the ring too, but like I said, I haven't told ANYBODY..not even him.

Kiko: So you're the girl who was in a coma. Wyatt told me something like that. He cried for weeks. Ever since he came back, he got distant, angrier, detached. it wasn't like him at all. that wasn't normal for a 15 year old. 3 years passed and dad finally allowed him to move back home. I decided to go back with him. He was hoping to see if you were still alright. he went back to the hospital, and that's when they told him that you woke up 3 years ago. He was at least relieved that you woke up. he asked for a home address, but they wouldn't disclose that information. so we decided to just look, and see if he had luck on his side. and from the looks of it, he has it. he definitely does. he found you.

I definitely felt tears streaming down my eyes. she smiles and comes up to hug me. she's more comforting than I thought. she wiped my tears away and looked behind me to see Elijah and Wyatt.

Elijah: What did you do to my sister?
