Amanda's Point of View

When the doctors already left, they put John on a different room for him to take some rest. When I went there I saw him again, his face was so calmed.

Every step I take, I felt like my heart was being stabbed multiple times. Seeing him unconscious and got a bandage all over his head scares me.

The machine was beside his bed, showing his heart rate monitor. I approach the man that I love, I touched his hand it was cold.

I rests my palm on top of his hand, caressing and warming him up. I observe his face, he was wearing an oxygen mask.

"When are you going to wake up, love?" I told him while caressing his white hair.

Everytime I looked on his face, it reminds me of a man who have gone through many suffering. I might don't know the things that he have to endure but I'm sure that it will be alright as long as I'm with him.

"You know, John? I don't need a diamond ring or any stuff... I don't care about the house nor the dresses... I just want us to have a normal life- away from all of the people that want you dead... I want you, I need you and I love you... please wake up soon" I sobbed so hard that I soaked my cheeks with tears as I'm now kneeling, helplessly.

I found the strength to get on my feet again, I caressed his face as I leaned in to kissed his forehead. My entire body was shaking as I hold onto his hands.

"Mark and I are finally getting along... he was a good man, I don't know what made him like that but I'm sure that he's trying to be the best version of himself..." I was like talking to a ghost and I don't even know if he hears me.

When I'm done letting it all out, I took a chair and move it beside his bed. I sat on it as I rests my head on top of John's chest.

I looked at the clock, it's really getting late. I was too tired from all of the this but my mind won't let me sleep even if I tried, it didn't work.

I breathe together with John, he was still unconscious. That I decided to stare at him, at first I was already being comfortable but then I noticed that something is wrong.

I heard the loud beeping from the machine that I immediately panicked. I rushed outside, calling for Lawrence but he was not there.

I called to the other doctors and they immediately rushed in, the scene was too fast that all I know was I was once again outside the waiting area, unable to stopped myself from thinking of the bad things.

"Amanda, please go on to another room... I'll take care of him, you're too tired and John wouldn't be happy to see you like that" he said as I felt a little better.

I went to the other room next to John, it was such an exhausting night. I laid down, feeling my body aching and my legs giving up. I heard a knocked outside as Mark went in, he put some of my stuff on the corner.

He shot me a looked before saying.

"I understand you, Amanda.. please try to gather some strength, it'll be okay" that's all he said before giving me a sorry looked.

I grew uneasy about everything but I think that taking some sleep won't hurt me.

I was half awake when I heard some noises outside. It bothers me a lot so when I checked it up, I saw Lawrence again he was busy talking to someone.

When Mark saw me, he greeted me before he gave me a cup of coffee and some bread that he bought outside. I sat next to him in a waiting area.

He was too quiet that it was starting to make me nervous.

"There have been some good news and some bad news" Mark told me as he sighed deeply.

"What is it?" I asked that I almost choked with my food.

"The good news was he's already awake and recovering" he said as I felt a sudden rushed of emotions filled me.

"How about the bad news... what is it?" I asked frightened when he's unable to looked at me.

"Better see it for yourself..." Mark said before placing his cup down and walking pass me.

I followed him immediately. He opened the door, hesitating a little but he finally allowed me to go inside. I saw John again, on his bed but now he was awake like what he said.

I rushed to him quickly as I hugged him tightly as I can. But when I pulled away he got a confused looked on his face.

"I'm sorry, what is this?" he told me and I frowned.

"It's me Amanda!" I told him and he looked at me unsure from what he heard.

"I- I don't k- know you... I can't remember" he told me while scratching his head, he avoided to looked at me.

"A- are you sure? Why can't you remember me?" I whispered as he looked down, feeling upset because he doesn't know what's happening.

"I really can't.. Who are you supposed to be?" he asked me again as I tried to touch his hand but he pulled it away.

I saw confusion, fear, seriousness and sadness all combined on his face.

"We are a couple" I blurted out like I can't believe it myself, it hurts me that this surgery will lead this way.

"Could you give me time to think of... A- Amanda? is it?" he stuttered, even saying my name was hard for him.

I wanted to run away from him, hide and never show myself again.

But then I realized something, his ring.. he's still wearing it after undergoing the surgery.

"Give me your hand" I told him and he gave it with a little hesitation, but soon he trusted me.

I took his hand with mine, I felt comfortable as he looked at me with curiosity on his eyes.

"Can you see this- I gave it to you and looked.. I have it too" I told him as I showed him the same ring we were both wearing.

John took my hand and he stared on it. He watched me with interest as he brushed his fingers with mine.

"Seems familiar" he said as his eyes soften.

Lawrence suddenly entered the room with a straight looked on his face.

"John needs to be here for weeks for further observation... he lost some of his memory but I think he'll remember it soon, he just need some help" Lawrence told us and I looked at John who wrapped his hands protectively on mine.

He didn't let me go when he looked at Lawrence with distrust on his eyes.
