Maven's Pov
I open my eyes to a warm looking room and beeping noises. I feel something warm on my hand and look over to someone resting on it. "Marlowe?" I ask and she shoots up almost immediately. "Frankie Lefévre"I say noticing her from earlier. "Yes it's me, you're okay!"she says kissing my forehead continuously."What happened?"
"You were in an accident Maves, a week ago,"she says and I don't remember it. She walks out abruptly and comes back with my doctor.
"Maven do you know where you are?"
"Yes, I'm in the hospital,"
"Do you know why you're here?"
"An accident?"
"Do you remember what happened?"
"No, Frankie dropped me home and I got into my apartment,"I say and they look at each other with puzzles faces. "It might take a few minutes for her to be fully aware,"he says reassuringly. Checking my eyes with a small torch like thing.
"Everything seems fine,"
"How soon can she be discharged?"
"Well run a few test and hopefully by the end of the day,"he says before walking out. I remember everything. "Where's Marlowe?" I ask and I can tell it's a sensitive subject because of how fast her fists clenched. "I don't know,"she says looking over to me. Was all of that true or was it just a dream? She knew me. Why didn't she tell me?
"Where's Arlo?"
"She's with my parents, they're all worried,"she says and I can understand why. I've been here for a week like she said. "I'm so hungry,"I say randomly and she's already on her feet.
"Can I get you anything?"
"I want chicken chasseur,"I say confusing her a bit. "Maves you haven't had that since our first dinner years ago,"she says but I can see how hopeful she looks. "That's what I want,"I say and she just smiles. "Okay I'll go get it for you, just stay awake?" She asks and I smile reassuringly. I have so much in my head to even close my eyes willingly again. I lay down on the bed taking in everything. Its always been Marlowe? I was the woman that was happy with someone else? No, but she has Lulu.
Wait could she?"Lulu...Luella Giuliani," I say with my eyes growing wider in shock. I have a daughter? I have a daughter that I didn't know about? I left them. I gave up on remembering them and let my parents lie to me. She wanted to marry me. She wanted me and I went ahead and got married to the first person I decided to move on with. I'm such an awful person. I think to myself wiping my own tears.
I need to call her. I try to get off the bed but I'm still weak from being hungry. She made me fall in love with her all over again, that's how much I meant to her. She's the reason I started to remember. She took me to places I had been before, with her. She's the mysterious woman in ally memories. Shes the face I was trying so hard to see. She's....a Mafia boss? I stop realisizing how confusing and sudden all this is. She has the hugest company and she refused to go public as the CEO when she was getting started.
Its the company Frankie was trying to get to buy her ideas. Caruso Tech corp, that's her middle name. Why did she disappear after the accident? She could have stayed with me. "Okay I'm back, chicken chasseur and a drink, I didn't know what you'd want so I got you a passion juice and ice cream," "Mint chocolate chip?" I ask and she sighs. "No but strawberry is close, you like that too,"she says and I hesitate on correcting her. Arlo likes it. I only take mint chocolate chip.
I sit up eating the meal and I'm not disappointed. I really love it. I'm no better than her. I had forgotten about this despite it being the meal we shared the first time we had dinner. When I'm done I focus on the juice but don't like it as much. I take it slowly anyway because I'd rather focus on it than move to the ice cream. The door opens with my baby girl running to the bed excited.
