I received a call from James. I lazily swiped the accept button. I heard background voices. It sounded like boys and girls having fun altogether.

I heard James' laugher before he finally spoke to the speaker. "Hey Kate!"

"Hi James." I greeted, still the same tone for my mood.

"Why don't you come over?" He asked, the background noise became lesser. I guess he went out of the room.

It feels like I'm not needed there. "I'm tired."

"Of Brad?" Partly, yes.

"No. Course not." I lowered my voice.

"Everybody's here. You should come too. Brad's getting his last test results." He said.

Oh. "Who's everybody?" I question.

"Blake, Reece, George, Lauren, Dina, Ally, Camilla, Normani, his family, Jessica, Connor, Tristan, and of course me." He chuckled at his last word.

I faked a chuckle too. "I can't get up."

"Why?" He asked in a flat tone.

"I don't know." I sighed.

"Kate, you should be here. You're the girlfriend." He said. Of course I am. But to him now, I'm not. Not yet. He's still hang up with Lauren.

I didn't know amnesia could bring back and forget feelings, you know. I didn't expected that Brad's feelings wouldn't be there anymore. I just... I thought it would stay.

Half of me wishes that he could have had that kind of amnesia where he can't recall anything. As in, anything.

I guess that would have been a lot easier than what he's got right now. He barely remember his feelings for me. Even if I tried to look at him in the eyes, hoping and praying that he would get some sparks or something, but I guess he just don't.

He's happy now. That's all I ever wanted.

"I just – I just can't, I'm sorry." I hung up the call and cried into my pillow.

My phone beeped in a couple of times and I checked it.

Jessica:
U ok now? Come over.

Connor:
Kate, you okay?

James:
Hey you, can I call again?

Tristan:
Hey.
Kate, I miss you.
Are you home?

George:
Hi Kate. Join us? Xx

Reece:
Do you might need a ride? Call me so I can pick u up. Xxx

Blake:
Hey xx why aren't you answering my calls?

Annie S.:
Hi Kate. How are you? Why don't you come over and visit Brad for a minute?

I replied to no one. I looked back at my call logs. I've been missing a hundred of calls.


BRAD's POV

Everybody's here and I love that. Lauren sat beside me. I held her hand and intertwined it with mine. The way she looks at me in the eyes, it was everything to me.

"You okay?" She asked.

"Very." I smiled to her. She smiled back.

"Hey Kate." James suddenly said, lifting his phone up to his ear and started walking out of the hospital room.
