Jennifer's pov
Over the last couple of days Ben has been seeing a detective to talk about my hit and run case. I overheard them on the phone and we are suppose to go his office so he can interview me to try to see what I remember. When breakfast was done, I asked Ben what he was on the phone about, just to see what he would say because he didn't know I was listening. "Nothing honey, I told the detective that we were still getting settled in and that it wasn't really a good time." He said. "Oh well I feel like it is a good time. I know this just happened and I'm still getting used to everything but I keep having these vivid memories of what actually happened on that day." I said. He just looks at me and says. "Can you see the face of the person who did it?" "Not really, it's all blurry." I said kinda upset. "Hey! There's no need to be upset. Maybe it'll come back to you. Then you'll know who actually did this to you, but for now we're not going to the detective office until your 100% sure of these "vivid memories"." He said. I just left it at what he said and gave a small smile.
I really wanna know why someone would do this to me, and why I was getting chased. I wake up every night with a horrible nightmare of me in the closet and this man walks by but a few seconds later he opens the closet door and grabs me, then I wake up. Whenever I tell Ben he just says take your pills and everything will be okay.
1 week after
Things between me and Ben have been getting a little weird. I told him that I wanted to go out and see something different, rather then be in a secluded cabin all day. That conversation ended quickly because he said "well you still have a broken foot so you can't drive or really walk." I tried to tell him that I've been walking perfectly fine and that it is healing correctly. Then the driving part is simple because he can take me wherever I need to go. He told me that we used to work together and right before we got married we both quit our jobs to go on a honeymoon. Meaning he has nothing else to do except stay at the house or go grocery shopping, but I can't go there with him either.
What really got me was Sunday night. He had made me dinner and we talked. He helped me upstairs and I got into my night gown and sat on the bed but Ben went to light a candle and came over to me and started kissing me. I couldn't go through with this because I didn't want to and I had a vivid memory in the process. I told him I can't and he just lost it. He said "you know what I've been going through trying to get to you? You are a ungrateful bitch to not let me have something I need."Then left the room. I laid there and cried, then the next morning I'm sitting on the bed facing the wide open window, with my back facing the door. He comes in and says he apologizes for what he said, and that he was been selfish so he gave me some flowers. I just turned to him and gave a small smile, then said it's okay.
When Ben got in the shower I got the urge to go into this jacket that he's always wearing and take his wallet. I took it and as I was about to open it he walks through the door way and starts talking about what I want to eat for dinner. I told him I'll cook something for him. I asked him if he liked Italian food and he says yes that sounds good. I told him could he run to the grocery store for me and he said he would then he got dressed and left.
I walked over to the window and watched as the gate opened and closed as his car went through it. I went back over to sit on the bed and then opened his wallet and saw mines inside. It said Jennifer Lopez. I was shocked because he said I didn't have an ID because it was stolen during the hit and run. I got my cane and tried my best to walk down the stairs fast. When I got down there I went to his office and opened his computer. There's a picture of me on it and there's a password which wasn't kinda hard after the second try. It was my full government name. When I got into it there was a lot of files but the ones I was interested in was the one with my name on it and his. It was a picture of me and this man. I've never seen this man before but we were together. I went to another picture and it was me and this man on our wedding day. Then I went to the file with his name and it's Ben with green screens behind him. The pictures around the house are photoshopped with his face on it to make it seems like he's with me.
I closed everything out the computer then got the phone he gave me and tried to call out but it wasn't working then I tried looking for the wifi box but the cords was cut out of it. I grabbed my cane and walked fast to the back door to try to get some service. I still didn't have any so I walked outside where our huge garden was and started walking over that way when I fell on top of the dirt. I saw a hand sticking out of the ground then everything went black.
I hope y'all enjoy this story;)
