Chapter 5
Monday was one of Alice's favorite day. Because it was the start of the week, only this time she didn't want to go to school. She wants to go to the hospital. But she said to Danny that she would visit on Tuesday.
She tied up her hair in a messy bun and walked out of the house, hollering a goodbye to her dad since her mom was still out of town.
When she got to the school, everything was still the same. People lived on to the their lives. They continue what they do everyday and just not mind.
She headed to her locker, she saw a group huddled together by Linc and Jane's locker.
She turned her head and saw Linc in the middle of the group.
Gloating,
she thought. Alice shut her locker and started to walk to her class but Linc saw her and shouted her name.
"Alice!" Alice didn't want to talk to him at the moment but she needed to be strong and polite to him, "Hey."
"Hey, Linc. You're back." she said half-heartedly.
"Yeah. How are you?"
"Fine." she said, she turned and saw Jane arriving, "Look, I got to go to class now."
Linc didn't want to be suddenly brushed off, he hate it when people push him away, "What are you going to do this afternoon?"
"I'm going to do my assignments and maybe research a bit. I'm going to be busy." she answered and walked away.
She knew it now. It would only take a fool not to figure it out. Linc likes her. Alice also knew that Jane knows this information.
This is going to be a long day,
she thought.

Danny was reading his journal entries, other he would laugh at, while others he would feel his chest constrict.
Two years,
he thought. Alice is his girlfriend for two years, how lucky he was?
He scrolled through the pictures and saw her smiles and laughs. There were even a few shots where she's pouting or glaring at him.
"Danny?" a quiet voice called, he looked up and frowned, "I'm Sasha." she introduced.
"Hi, Shasha. Uhm... Are we close back then?" he asked. The girl had long jet black hair and plump face, her eyes were dark brown.
"No. This is the first time we met." she said, "I'm the patient that's checked in next to your room." she said, Sasha was a shy girl and she heard that the guy next to her room had an amnesia.
"Oh, well, it's nice meeting you, Sasha." he said, he continued looking back at the pictures.
"Who's that?" she asked, "Do you remember her?"
"This is Alice. My parents told me that she has been my girlfriend for two years." he said, "I don't remember her at first but there are bits and pieces of memories that flash to me whenever I'm with her."
"That's great right? I mean, if you got your memory back." she said, she didn't know what it's like to be an amnesiac.
"Honestly, I don't know. What if we don't have a good relationship back then and she's just putting it up with me because it's her responsibility, because she's my girlfriend? What if my memories come back and then she breaks up with me?"
Sasha looked at the handsome guy at the bed, his forehead was covered with white bandage, crowning with mop of dark brown hair. He had jet black eyes and a perfect straight nose. He also have thin pink lips.
