A heart That Remember.
Endra
Yes… you are three months pregnant.
Endra
I’m sorry I waited so long to tell you.
Mary almost lost her balance at the sudden news.
Mary
Just yesterday, I think I was escaping to find a peaceful life—and now, I wake up with a whole family?
She laughed nervously, tears welling in her eyes.
Mary
And I even believed I had time-traveled… just like one of those stories I have read.
Mary
What am I supposed to do now?
Her voice cracked as she broke into tears.
He reached out gently, steadying her.
Mary
How can I calm down when I’m like this.
Endra
I help you recover—no matter how long it takes.
Endra
You used to tell me about your wish for a quiet peaceful life. I promise I’ll protect that wish.
Mary
You knew about that?
Mary looked at Endra. His expression wasn’t just kind— it was familiar, safe. A strange comfort warmed her heart.
Mary
Mary(thought) So I really was his wife….This entire time?
Endra
You don’t have to force yourself to remember right away. Just focus on getting better—for yourself and… for our baby.
Endra
And…is being near me make you uncomfortable, I’ll understand.
Mary
I don’t feel uncomfortable.
Mary
In fact…with the boys I feel calm and safe.
Endra
(Smiling softly): That’s good to hear.
Endra
Would you like to step outside? You always do that when you not feeling well, maybe you even recall something.
Mary feels at ease hearing that.
Mary
You can get the boys too.
The sun beamed gently through the palm trees, casting golden light across the soft white sands. The ocean stretched out in calm waves, sparkling under the warm sky. The salty breeze filled Mary's lungs with life.
Mary
Mary (awe-struck): So this is Isantra Village...
It's... beautiful.
The peaceful ocean, the mountains in the distance, the scent of sea breeze—it was everything she'd once dreamed of.
Norak
Norak (excited): Mommy! Do you want this shell?
Mary
Mary (smiling): Thank you, sweetheart.
Rama
Rama: Mommy! Look—I found one too!
(He place the shell in her hand.)
Mary’s smile wavered. She couldn’t remember the names of the boys...
Mary
Mary (thought): What are their names again?
Endra
Endra (gently): Norak he is 5 and here is Rama 3.
Then, turning to the boys:
Endra
Mommy’s not feeling well, remember? She forgot some things... but she still loves you both very much.
Will you two help her remember?
Norak
Norak (nodding): I know, Daddy. I’ll help Mommy.
Rama
Rama: Me too! I’ll help Mommy... and then she can kiss me again!
Endra
Endra (laughs): Of course she will, buddy.
Mary
Mary (smiling with emotion): Thank you... all of you. For understanding me.
Rama
Rama: Mommy! Come here! I wanna show you something!
He tugged her hand, pulling her closer to the shoreline.
Rama
Rama: You used to say this was your favorite spot. Do you remember now?
Mary felt a sting behind her eyes. The sound of the waves, the soft sand, the warmth—it was all too real.
Mary
Mary (holding back tears)Thank you Rama for now I will remember , because you showed it to me.
Mary
Mary (thought): This place... this peace... these boys... and the little one still growing inside me...
This is my family.
Even if I can’t remember everything yet, I can feel it.
She turned toward Norak and called him.
Mary
Mary: Norak, come here.
Norak’s eyes lit up. It had been so long since he heard his mother say his name like that.
Mary
Mary: Will you both show me around?
Boys (grinning): Yes, Mommy!
She hugged them both, smiling for the first time without hesitation.
Mary
Mary (thought): I may have lost my memories… but I’ll learn to be a good mother.
I’ll rediscover this life—one step at a time.
The three walked happily along the shoreline, footprints trailing behind them in the sand.
Endra watched from a short distance, his heart full.
