Steve Pov's

At the hospital, the tension was very weird and intense.

I have been at the hospital for four hours and no one has come out, the nurses don't respond to what ever question I asked them.

I wasn't  able to sit down all I did was pacing in and from of the hospital.

The doctor came out from the operation room and all he could tell me is

"come down," how I can come down when my happiness is in danger,

The only person that completes my breath is fading away and you are telling me to calm down. 

I failed you I promise to protect you but I couldn't protect you, please come back to me and I won't fail you anymore.

"Steve what happened" Benjamin and Joe. B came to the hospital after I called them to inform them of Vera's accident.

"I don't know how it happened," everything seems to be happening so fast.

"Calm down Steve she will be fine." Benjamin said. 

I saw the doctor coming and I run to approach him, the look on his face wasn't pleasing. 

God don't let anything happen to my Vera,. 

"Doctor, how is she,? The doctor was only staring at me in a surprised mood. 

Are you her husband, without second thought I responded.. 

Yes and I hope she is fine. 

"She wasn't brought here earlier therefore she lost a lot of blood, and in fact Mr . Steve you need to come down 

"How is she doctor

. "?? 

We did our best but am sorry to tell you... My heart started beating continuously as if it was about to be plug out. 

See me at my office Mr. Steve. He said. 

I went to his office without Benjamin and Joe. B 

At the doctor's office pictures of him digestive system, drugs and skeletal system of humans were pasted on the walls. 

I was still uncomfortable with the fact that I haven't heard any news from the doctor. 

I sat on the chair ready to listen to what he has to say,. 

Mr. Steve, your wife is very lucky even though she has lost a lot of blood but she still survived it. There little problem we have is that... 

She has memory lost, 

"What do you mean by memory lost"?? I stood from the chair, what is happening doctor. 

Sit down please, the accident was triggered by shock and her head hit the ground it has effected her memory. What I mean is she won't be able to recognize anything for now but it temporarily, she will recover soon depending on how her body responds to treatment. 

"The most interesting thing she is still alive" I said in a calm and disappointing voice

"Can I see her" 

"Yes you can but she is not awake she is still unconscious". 

I exchanged hand shake with doctor Martin and lifted his office to Vera's word. 

I want to her room and she was peacefully sleeping, different wires have been attach to her body. I sat beside her on the bed, I held her hands and began talking to her. 

"I am sorry that I couldn't protect you, you are going through this because of me, I am sorry.

How will she recognize me as her Steve?? 

I have been staying and watching over Vera for three days, after I had an information that someone was chasing her on that day the incident happened. 

I have to find the root of this danger revolving our me, who ever that is behind this will definitely be brought to judgment one day.

Doctor Martin called me yesterday to inform me that Vera has gain consciousness, I need to go see her even though she won't recognize me anymore as his Steve. 

I entered into my car and zoomed off to the hospital.... 

 

Vera Pov's 

I wake up and I saw a man standing beside me, 

Am doctor Martin he said, 

"What's your name madam" 

I was confused, I didn't know what to tell him 

"My name, am..."

I didn't recognize my name and the only name I have heard before was doctor Martin, if he has a name I must also have a name. 

"Your husband will be here soon" 

I even have a husband it means I have a family maybe a child. 

"What the name of my husband"?? He didn't answer 

"You need to rest he will be here soon". 

I sat on the metal bed and lean against the wall, I was feeling hungry 

Few minutes later a handsome man entered into my room,.. He hugged man and I began suspecting him as my husband. 

How are you "?? He said holding my hands. 

I stare at him as he speaks. 

" I am Steve your husband and you are Vera. 

"Do I have a child?? I asked her 

"No it has not been long we got married "

"So how come I don't remember anyone, I don't even remember my name"?? 

"It a long story we will talk about that when we get to the house." 

"So this is not my house," 

"We are in the hospital you got sick that why I brought you to the hospital" . 

He brought out something from the bags he was holding 

"You must be hungry eat your food," he said while placing the food in my hands. 

I was more that hungry... I took the food and started eating, 

" it taste good" I said 

"Yeah, it called rice and stew and this is chicken" pointing to it. 

"I will see the doctor will be back soon " he said and kissed my cheeks before leaving 

When he came back I had finished eating all the food. 

"We are going home he said and held my hand to me get down from the bed. 

When I got down from the bed my legs were to heavy, he noticed and carried me on his hands to something that looks like a small house. 

This is called a car, he said after opening th door for me to sit. 

We got to a very big house as we entered into the house he said 

"This is your home where we both live" 

I stare at the house and the things inside but I don't recognize any of them. 

I was taken to another room and was told this was my room, the room was very nice. 

I feel slight headaches whenever pictures of the things in my room flashes my mind.

 

Steve pov's 

One month since I brought Vera home from the hospital, she has been behaving strange. She doesn't recognize how to even used the things in the bathroom. I have been teaching her how to cook and now she can cook by herself. I was told not to send her to the market because it will trigger her memory to further damage. 

She is calm more than the Vera I used to know, she doesn't talk much this days and she now behaves almost like a child. 

She always request for chocolate, yesterday she wakeup me in the middle of the night requesting for chocolate. I have to go look for chocolate and buy for her, she cries on the slightest provocation. 

"Man you're really playing the role of a husband" Joe.B said 

"Are you trying to tease me or what "?? 

"Am showing appreciation for taking care of our sweet baby Vera" he said in a laughter 

"Here comes our royal lady" 

"Hi babe, how are you??. Joe. B said 

" Am fine" she said while sitting beside me as she put her head on my shoulder. 

"We need to find those men who were after her and why they wanted her" ? 

"What do we do now" Benjamin asked while entering the room. 

"Thank God you're here." I said 

"I am suspecting her Sister, she saw us together and in three day that incident happened" 

"Am sure she doesn't know she survived it. " Joe. B said. 

"Now this what we going to do.". .....Benjamin said.....
