'How many people are given such a chance, tell me? The chance that their chosen one will fall in love with them again forever?'

The days passed and Maya didn't want to stay in her room at all. She wanted to go out and see this beautiful brunette again. So with each new visitor, they had to go around the hospital.

As Ashley had indicated, and despite the fact that she hated hearing babies cry, she often asked to linger on the birthing floors. However, she would occasionally run into Carina on the gynecological floor, in the cafeteria or outside.

Of course, she continued with the rehabilitation sessions and those with the psychiatrist. She was able to talk to him well and it was good for her, even if she could not remember anything yet. However, she no longer needed medication to help her sleep at night. Just painkillers, especially for the nerves.

Lieutenant Decker checked in on the two women from time to time, but had no progress in Maya's case. The two men had remained silent and covered for each other.

Maya's mother had finally been able to travel and had come to see her daughter. She stayed for a week. It was not easy, because she did not understand the importance of not saying too much. As a result, she never went alone and Maya's friends kept picking up on her.

She had also been to see the Italian woman and really liked her. That evening the obstetrician had told Maya about the first time she had met her mother.

-"I saw Katherine today... We had lunch together. She's really struggling with this amnesia thing... But deep down she's funny... I'll always remember the first time I saw her..."

/Flashback/

Carina and Maya were in the captain's office. They were kissing, while the Italian had tackled the blonde against the office door.

They couldn't help but smile against each other's mouths as they enjoyed each other's company.

The captain began to move the brunette back toward her desk.

-"We should stop" she said while kissing the Italian, not being able to do it really.

- "oh yes, it's not good to do that at your workplace" made the Italian by unbuckling the belt of the blonde and by making them turn, to go stick the buttocks of the blonde, at the office.

-"We're doing this at the taxpayers' expense," Maya said as Carina's hand went against her crotch.

- "and they don't pay you to kiss me?!"

- "we'll have to pay them back" she said, while their lips were still sealed.

-I'm fine with it" she said, regaining possession of the blonde's lips.

However, someone had pulled them out of their trance and knocked on the door.

-"Yes?" Maya had answered by detaching her lips, from those of the Italian.

Emmett, one of Maya's firefighters had returned, as she quickly reattached her belt.

-"Excuse me for interrupting, Captain Bishop, but... Your mother is... here?!" he said, surprised and unsure of himself.

-"Mom" Maya said, shocked to see her here.

- "Hi!" Katherine said before adding "surprise."

- "What are you... What are you... You didn't... Waaa you didn't warn... Uh why?" she didn't know where to put herself, very embarrassed by the situation.
