The Remnants Of Forgotten Love

chapter 21

"Yet again, the look in your eyes, makes me forget my path"

"The night sure is long" I say, while standing up and stretching my arms.
"And the moon sure is beautiful" I added.

We finally reached the venue,
After last night's talk my head feels heavy, but my heart feels a little lighter, the secret that I was holding for 5 years, I finally let that out with the words that I wanted her to hear.

I hadn't expected that the fire would leave such a scar on her and the fact that she vaguely remembers... if I'm right, the peice of heart she was referring to was our relationship, our happy days.

I wonder if the pawn magic did that, or if it just happened on its own, will her memories return with time? But the owner said that wouldn't happen, but then how does she-

Millions of thoughts raced in my head, as I lay on my bed, in my hotel room. staring at the white delicate ceiling. unaware of what the destiny or fate had in store for me.

as I continue to lie here, the ceiling seems to stretch out before me like a blanket, the fatigue of last night makes my eyes heavy, there's still 1 day left for the competition, maybe I can rest a little for now... I wonder how isla-

And before I knew, my eyes already gave up, pulling me in a state of slumber with them.

                      ....

"I don't understand how a person who can't cook, manage a whole damn restaurant" the boy complained, his eyebrows furrowed while he bandaged the girl's finger.

But who are they? And where am I? I question myself. Looking around.

the sleek granite countertops and stainless steel appliances glimmer in the bright light, while the wooden cabinets added a touch of warmth and coziness. The tile floors were spotless and the window above the sink greeted with the buildings outside. With a pressure cooker on the stove, and some already cut vegetables lying on the counter, with some drops of... blood?

What is this? Where am I? Whose kitchen is this?

"Are you scolding me?" The girl pouted, looking at the guy with puppy eyes.

"No..." the guy sighned.

"But you should take care of yourself Isla, you don't have to cook, I'm here to cook for you" He added.

My eyes widen with shock and confusion. Isla? Me?

Suddenly the girl's face got visible... and it was... me‽ but the boy's face remained invisible. What is this? Am I dreaming?

I watch the two be sweet to eachother, from a distance, the girl was me... but that guy... is someone I don't know.

"But don't be angry with me" the girl said, with a little pout forming on her lips and innocence shining in her eyes.

"I'm not" the boy replied. Pinching the girl's cheeks.

"Hey! I told u!" The girl screamed in protest. And the guy burst into laughter.

"Hey! I love you!" The guy screamed, giggling.

"Just you wait!, I will ruin your hair!" The girl yelled, running after him.

                      ....

My eyes finally opened. Taking me away from that weird dream. While a yawn broke out of my mouth, stretching my jaw wide open.
