Only the sharp flying sound of the metal weapon was heard. It never reached Seraphina.

Just as it was about to pierce into her head, Yalda caught it, bringing it down professionally.

Stunned by her sudden obstruction, Tobias’s eyes met hers darkly, angry at his failed throw.

Seraphina’s eyes opened slowly, and seeing Yalda in front of herself made her gulp a little spit.

In split second, Tobias grabbed another wasp knife, throwing it with his left hand, targeting her neck.

Jude moved this time, getting in the way and snatching the knife.

“I need a story on how this is fuckin happening,” Tobias smirked. “And it better be convincing enough, cos it’s a no-brainer that I’mma kill you both if I find nothing to hold on to!”

He faced Yalda.

“Why the fûck is Kelly in my room? Let’s start with why she’s in my house in the first place. Write me a convincing story!” He yelled.

Seraphina covered her mouth with her palm to prevent herself from shouting, cos she got an idea of what the problem is immediately.

“My…my boyfriend is… amnesiac?”

“I’m so sorry, First Lady,” Jude said beside her. “His head hit and fall was too fatal to not expect this.”

“Even if amnesia is the case, there’s no way he’d start seeing me as Kelly!” Seraphina shouted. “Anyone else but Kelly! He hates Kelly like shit! He can see me as anyone else but Kelly!” Seraphina broke down again.

“First Lady…” Jude looked full of pity for her as he tried to calm her.

“No!” She broke off bitterly. “I didn’t wait six months of torture only to get this! I didn’t miss him madly for six months only to get this! I didn’t lose sleep and concentration for six months only to get this! I want my man back, not this stranger who sees me as a betrayer ex! This isn’t my Tobias! This isn’t my sweetheart…”

“He has a brain alteration, the doctor confirmed it.” Jude informed.

“What!” Seraphina’s sight popped.

“Yes, and the doctor added that he was gonna lose certain bits of his memories or mismatch some of the memories. We just didn’t expect him to forget yours.” Jude continued.

Seraphina froze again like she was thrown into ice sea, finally letting out the tears she’s been holding.

“He…he forgot only me? …wh..hy?”

“Like you know, he’s got Fear of Abandonment. What Kelly did to him might look small, but it’s actually this serious. He doesn’t just hate Kelly, but he also still hates himself for getting attached to her, so at any little chance he gets, he’s gonna dwell on the hate. Maybe this selective amnesia is what he needs to purge it all out.” Jude explained carefully.

“It’s this deep?” Seraphina choked on her tears. “His fear of abandonment runs this deep?”

“When his parents died, I’m just hearing that he mourned them the longest among his siblings. He wore black without any other color for almost a year. He didn’t hate them cos they didn’t give him attention when they were alive. He hates them for dying and leaving him. To him, just seeing them alive as his parents was enough even if they didn’t look at him. Their death was what he hated, cos when they died, they literally abandoned him and his brothers. Maybe his FOA started from there.”

Seraphina gasped, her palm falling off her mouth.

“He has always been a sweet, sweet human. He didn’t hate them for not giving him attention, but he hates them because they abandoned him by dying?” She muttered.

“Calm down, First Lady,” Jude pacified. “He’ll come back around, trust us to try everything we can.”

Seraphina swallowed the rest of her tears, nodding.

“But I miss him badly. I want him to look at me with those wistful eyes again, give me the boyish smile and flaunt his chin dimple at me. I want him to kiss me deep again and return to his side. I want him to tell me he still loves me and that his fall didn’t alter with his affection for me. Jude… I’ll do anything… anything to…”

“It’s bit by bit, First Lady,” Jude continued. “He’s aggressive like shit. You’ve seen it in the way he threw the wasp knife at you. Don’t force him, just let’s think of something.”

Across the room, Yalda is also trying to talk to Tobias who’s not having it.

“If you wanted to kill her, you’d have used the gun instead of the wasp knife, Wrath, and that just means there’s somewhere inside you that still recognizes her.” Yalda said. “This ain’t Kelly, this is Seraphina. You call her Sera, your girlfriend, the girl you’d go any length for.”

“I have a girlfriend?” Tobias chuckled. “Do you realize how fuckin funny you sound? Mayhem is the only thing I awarded that title.”

“Immediately you took her as your girlfriend, you made Mayhem your sister.” Yalda nodded, talking as calmly as she can.

“I demoted Mayhem from girlfriend to sister?” Tobias scoffed.

“Yes, you did.” She nodded again. “That’s how deep your affection for her runs, Wrath.”

Tobias looked at Seraphina across the room, but he felt nothing. The only gnawing one is the fact that he doesn’t really wanna kill her.

Fine, he wants to hurt her and torture her cos she’s Kelly anyways, but no part of him is telling him to kill her right now, and that’s weird.

“No way,” he maintained his death stare at her. “No. Fuckin. Way.”

“You remember killing Migos,” Yalda said carefully again.

“I killed that motherfucker by digging out his heart cos he….” Tobias stopped, trying to remember exactly why he killed Migos.

He got nothing. That part of his memory is blank.

He looked up.

“You killed him because he tried to make you hate Seraphina with a half video.” Yalda said clearly.

“What!”

“Yes, and you remember being on top of a cliff?” Yalda asked.

“With Vince,” he replied. “I had a hand-to-hand fight tight him, then we ended up on top of a cliff and…”

He stopped talking.

“Why were we fighting in the first place?” He asked.

Yalda tilted her head.

“See? You need these pieces of memories to come back together, Wrath. You’re suffering from amnesia right now, and we need to work on getting your lost memories back.”

Slowly, Tobias sat back in bed, staring hard into space.

From across the room, Seraphina tried to move, but Jude pulled her back. “No.”

“I won’t do anything silly, ok?” She promised assuredly.

Jude let her go, and she moved forward to Tobias, making sure there’s enough space between them before she talked.

“Here,” she pointed at her neck—the obsidian eye necklace.

Tobias looked up, and the mere sight of it on her neck made his jaws grit hard his face crumpled.

“You gave it to me that day before the tragedy occurred six months ago.” Seraphina continued.

Then, she pointed at his wrist—the rare beads crocheted bracelet.

“I gave that to you, and though you hate fancy tacky stuff, you still wore it because of me. Look ..” she pointed at the beads on her dress.

“Since you fell in coma, I’ve been beading my dresses with the same rare beads just to feel your presence whenever I’m not here. Also, for the past six months, I’ve been spending my nights here beside you, sleeping on your chest and chanting for you to come back, always….”

She smiled slightly, sighing.

“I’m not going to force you to remember anything. I waited six months, I can wait more, but please…. there’s only a little time I can wait for before losing my mind completely.”

Tobias didn’t even look at her as she talked, but she’s sure he’s listening.

She stared at his head for as long as she could before leaving the room.

Tobias finally looked up, and his eyes followed her out of the room.

With Jude and Yalda remaining with him, he stayed quiet, but it’s obvious he’s so deep in thoughts as he’s repeatedly tapping his feet against his sleek bedroom slippers.

Jude and Yalda exchanged glances.

“By the way, there’s news about Vince, but we’ll let you process the news you just got about your girlfriend.” Jude said.

Then, he left with Yalda.
