"Oh yes, you have! Do you have any idea for how long you have slept? For a full freakin' month!" Leena's eyes reddened thinking of the past month. She buried her head in the crook of Patricia's neck, feeling her alive and breathing in her embrace.
"What? A whole month? Your'e kidding! I have been in a coma for that long? No wonder I feel pain all over my body." Patricia raised her hand, though she could not do it completely. She put it lightly on Leena's shoulder, gently patting her, trying to comfort her best friend.
"Where does it hurt? Tom, come quickly check up on her!" As soon as she heard Patricia's words, Leena immediately raised her head and looked at Tom with worried and pleading eyes. She had almost forgotten that Tom was also there in the room.
"It is normal for her to feel pain. That's because technically, she is still injured. Her wounds aren't fully healed yet. She just woke up. She did not miraculously get healed all of a sudden. She still has a long way to go." Tom was completely confused right now. Because Patricia seemed to remember everything well except for him. She could recognize Leena as if they just saw each other yesterday. What the hell was going on?
"Oh! He is the Tom that you often talk about! No wonder! He kept asking me if I knew him." Then she turned to Tom."See? Now I know your name. Tom!" It suddenly hit Patricia why Tom asked her those weird questions earlier. He was Leena's hotshot doctor brother. But what she seemed to have forgotten was that the man in front of her was also the man she deeply loved.
"What? Are you okay, Patricia? What are you talking about? Don't you remember him?" Leena's eyebrows knit ved. This is the best way to get rid of the world's most annoying person. She's never gonna come here to bother me anymore, right?" Tom smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes. He just didn't want Leena to worry.
"You are clearly lying. But I will let it go this time. Is her memory loss permanent or not?" Leena should be happy that Patricia had forgotten Tom, she really should. Because in this way, Patricia wouldn't be hurt anymore. But she was still sad because Tom had just started having some feelings for her. She knew this would hurt Tom. If only there was something she could do so that it didn't have to happen like that.
"Well, I am not sure about that. Maybe she will never have her memory back, or maybe one day she will suddenly remember it all. It's really hard to say." Tom smiled again, but his smile was bitter and forced. He should be happy that Patricia forgot him, right? She wouldn't bother him anymore. And it was something he always wanted, wasn't it? But why did he feel disappointed and frustrated once those words left his mouth? There was a lump in his throat and he looked away.
