CHAPTER 42

I was discharged 4 days after I regained my consciousness. I had never gotten a chance to be on my own because this people insisted, I should be kept company.

The Boss and his wife also visited me. I was also told by Pha that they always at by bedside every night. What I don't understand is that they had assigned 2 bulky men to be my bodyguard. I think I, getting in and out of consciousness can sometimes hear them talk to me, I don't know if it was just a dream but it felt so blurry.

Mae and Por, Pha's parents also visited me and insisted I stay with them to recuperate my health. But I was insisted I can take care of myself.

Now, here's the fun part. After my collapsed episode and being in come for almost a month, I have some memories I cant put a finger on, its like tidbits, a flashback if you say, of me when I was a child. I can now remember the teddy bear, being in a car accident the cloth I wear, even the shoes I wore.

I tried pushing them at the back of my mind but I feel that I'm missing a very important and crucial part. Anyways, as I walk inside my apartment, I feel the same uneasiness and at the same time comfort with the familiar scent I'm smelling. I just ask the 2 bulky men to stay outside as I gather my things as I was demanded by Pran that the Boss specifically instructed them to tell me that I will be living in the mansion starting today.

I quickly gathered my things and in an hour I was ready to go. There is still a nagging feeling of someone being here in my room but I just brushed off the thought.

The ride to the mansion was uneventful as the 2 bulky men trailed the car I was in. with the driver. We arrived at the mansion and I was welcome by Pat and Pran an I can feel some changes with the way they treated and greeting me. Maybe I was just being paranoid or maybe because I was out for 1 month and they are walking in eggshells around me. But I can feel that they are talking to me with distance now unlike before.

I quickly made my way to my usual room as I thought I will be using the same room I had been for the longest time but Pran stopped me.

"Beam, The Boss and The Miss would like to speak to you now." – Pat a little too formal for my liking

"What's with the weirdness, Pat? Pran? Whats gotten you both?" I asked playfully.

"You'll know soon enough" -Pran

I followed them to a different side of the house. If I'm not mistaken this is the more intimate part of the mansion where masters' bedroom is located. Sure enough I saw a domineering double door that screams "I am the masters' bedroom. Keep out!" but we took a sharp left just a few meters away from that door.

"Please see yourself inside when your ready" – Pran.

My hearts pounding I can feel a headache coming. I don't know what I feeling. A mixture of uneasiness and curiousness. As I touch the handle of the solid mahogany door, I feel some comfortable emotion. When I entered I felt like I traveled back. I saw a bedroom full of kids toys.

The double bed in a shape of a car painted lightning McQueen's motif if in the middle of the room. There are shelves and shelves of books, toys, a piano on the side. I felt my head is bursting as the blood pumping from my hear rushed it ways to my temples. I felt so at home and personal with all the things I saw in the room.

I slowly crept my way to the bed and sat on it. feeling the soft cushion and under my hands. Touching the fabric and a wave of emotions flushes me. A single tear slowly trickled from my eye which I quickly dried with my knuckles. I don't know why I'm crying but while I was thinking about why, it open my floodgates and I was bad ass sobbing.

I still don't know why I'm crying but I felt like I needed it. I slowly got up and I made my way to the books that was in the shelves, they all feels familiar. I still can't pinpoint how or why but they all did. I slowly caress my fingers lightly to the carefully stacked toys, action figures, cars and many more.

I slowly turned my head as I heard the opening of the door.

a/n: hello everyone! I am so sorry for the hiatus but I've been really busy with work and things. I'm also in a bit of writing burnt out so I had been contemplating if I should be finishing this book or nay.

But thank you to all that is still waiting for my updates and I hope you can give me some votes to boost me up.
