chapter 1 part 3

*********************************************Her thoughts were interrupted by the clicking sound of the door. A man popped his head in and his pure black pupils searched around the room as if looking for something. When they landed on her, he revealed a bright smile which showed his crystal white teeth. He slowly got into the room and closed the door. Now the girl could see him perfectly. He had pale skin which had a few strands on it. His curly, black hair reached at shoulder-length, he had let it loose so a few strands of it covered his face. Though masculine, he was still cute.

"Niffie you're awake!" he shouted as he ran towards her and gave her a passionate kiss, she did not kiss him back.

Surprised, she pushed him away as her cheeks flashed giving her face a rose pink color, it made her even cuter.

Was she blushing? Impossible. He was hurt by her actions but seemed to recover quickly.

He sat on her bed and looked at her with his big doe eyes which were sparkling at the moment.

" So cute!" she told herself," just how many handsome men are here?" She wondered.

" Where are my manners?" he said mostly to himself," the doctor said you might be having memory loss. I could tell by the flustered look on your phase that he was right, I'm Nick by the way," he paused for her to process what he had said." so...let me give you a quick recap. It was five years ago..."

"Five years ago!" she was meant to shout, but her condition failed her. She only managed to let out a soft whisper.

"Yes five," he said curtly obviously annoyed with the fact that she had rudely interrupted him," anyway, it was around noon, and you were walking out of the university of Finland when a motorist hit you. It was so bad that you were taken to hospital. Luckily the doctor phoned me since my number was the first on your phone. When I had arrived you were already in a comma. Since the hospital wasn't skilled enough, I moved you to New York with me cuz that was where our family doctor was. The matter was solved in court and the motorist was imprisoned for driving in the sidewalk. Since then, I've been looking after you every day and reading for you stories cuz I know how much you love novels."

" Oh! How kind of you," is all she could manage to say. Her voice was back, but her throat still hurt when she talked. So... how did we meet?"

" We met at the university of Finland. I was the senior in charge of you, majoring in business and you were majoring in accounting. At first we hated each other cuz I was the controlling type, and you hated being told what to do. But then I guess opposites attract cuz We fell for each other, I confessed, and we became lovers. We even got married. We've been married for three years, eight if you count the ones you've spent in a comma. In case you've forgotten, your name is Niffie Backster, daughter of Celine and Dylan Backster and twin sister to Taffy Backster. She's been living in Texas since you both joined college.

Yeah... that's all I can tell you at the moment. Give me a sec to call the nurse to remove all those needles injected into you, so we can go home.

After the nurse had done the necessary, she wished the girl a quick recovery. As they left the establishment, she bid doctor Isaac good bye and hoped they would meet again.
