CHAPTER 53: LOST MEMORY

"You know what, I really don't trust that woman." "Who? Francine?" I asked Belle when she nudged my elbow. We're in the kitchen and Alex and I just came from the meeting which Francine and her lawyer asked from our side. And it's exactly what she and Dani visit us 'together'.. riding in 'one car'.  It's been one week since Alex got out of the hospital. And since he has a temporary memory loss and serious fractures in his rib and left leg, he needs to stay at home until he's completely healed.  And Francine took immediately an action. She called a lawyer to talk and demands Alex's supports for their child. And she used the results of the DNA test as a proof the he is the biological father of her son. "Who else? I don't know but I can feel a negative vibe in her, and I feel something's wrong whenever I see her." "Well, I can also feel that, but do I have a choice? She's the mother of my husband's child." "I know. So, what are the things that she demands for her child?" I sighed and take a seat. "She demands to put Dino in Alex's name, and financial support before the end of every month. And because Dino is still young and still incapable of everything, the money would go directly into her bank account." "What? Oh God! So, that's her way on how to extort money from your husband! Why don't you just give Dino a junior savings account on his own?" "Belle... Francine is Dino's mother, that means she could have the same access in whatever Alex would give to Dino." "Poor child." she just shook her head. "So, what does Alex opinion about this matter?" "He wants to apply for the full custody of the child." "I see.. what about you? Are you okay with this set-up?" I sighed again loudly. "As I told you, do I have any choice? Besides, Dino is just an innocent child. He shouldn't be experiencing this kind of thing, he's still young." "What about the custody?" "Well, Alex is still not in the right condition, so for sure we can't win the case, even our lawyer can't do anything about it. And it stated in the law, that if a child is under seven years old, the full custody of it will always goes to the mother." "So, What are you planning to do right now?" "I don't know Belle, honestly. I still need his explanation. I want to talk to him but he doesn't remember anything, even our marriage." "Then wait for him until his memory comes back. But whether he gets it back or not, still... it won't change the truth. Dino is Alex's child." I just looked at her and smiled. I lost my words when it comes to that. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * One month later... "Baby, what happened after we get married?" Alex asked me while I am helping him to get up using his crutch. "We lived in separate ways. You lived on your own and I lived mine alone. After I graduated, I worked in a publishing company and you continue your work as the CEO of Smith Corporation." "And after that what did I do? How did I get involved with Francine again?" I stopped moving. Is he seriously asking me this question? "Actually I don't know. I didn't even know you had a child with her. And that's what I want to hear from you first, when you get back your memories." "I'm sorry baby. I was actually shocked when you introduced him to me. Yeah, I remember Francine but I don't remember how did we get a child." I just sighed and avoided his gaze. I can't believe we're talking such this things, but he couldn't remember anything about what happened. "I'm sorry." he lifted up my chin and tried to catch my eyes. "I'm sorry if I did something wrong. I'm sorry for those mistakes I created within this marriage. I don't know how would I make it up to you, but I promise I'll do everything to make it all right, once my memory comes back." He cupped my cheek using his free hand. "Have I told you that you were the most beautiful woman I've ever meet?" he asked seriously while looking to my eyes. I smiled and nodded. "Have I told you before how much I love you?" "Yes, a lot of times before." "Really? I did? I confessed to you?" I chuckled at his question. As if he can't believe that he already told me that he loves me.  "Yes, you did."  "Well.. at least I made one right thing." he smiled and paused. "I love you, baby. If I have to shout it all over the world how much I love you, I will. And to our baby." He put his hand over my belly and connect his forehead with mine. "I love you, too." Then he kissed me and I kissed him back with tears flowing from both eyes. I kissed him with all the love I have for him and that my life depended on that kiss. He pulled back when he tasted the salty liquid and looked at me. "Shh.. I'm sorry, baby. Please don't cry. You know I don't want to see you crying. Please.." he wiped those tears using his palm and knuckles, and I leaned on his touch while letting my tears to flow. "I just love you so much that I've been so much hurt too, after knowing you have Dino in your life and you didn't tell me." He looked up the ceiling and closed his eyes then he looked at me again. "I'm sorry, baby. I'm sorry." and he kissed me again, but this time in a hungry and a desperate way. The kiss that awakened all my senses and drown us both to the pool of lusts. We ended on top of the bed, with him on top of me. But then I remember what the doctor's said about his condition. "Wait, Alex!" I slightly pushed his shoulder and his head raised from the crock of my neck. "What?" he asked with his pupils dilated with pure lusts at the moment. I can now also feel his bulged in between my thighs. "You're still not allowed into this kind of activity." "What the-----baby, you don't know how much I wanted to touch you since I woke up!" he said frowning and I chuckled. But he didn't move, he stayed on top of me. "Baby, it's been one month! Please, just once. I'm gonna die waiting!" "And you think I don't know that? I don't also feel that? Alex, we need to make sure that you're completely healed before we go back into this kind of activity. "Oh, baby, please! I can't hold it anymore!" he pleaded while kissing my jaw again. I arched my neck and a soft moan escaped from my lips. "We should need to ask your doctor about this------" "Fuck him! And fuck whatever he wants to say! I don't care!" "Huh!"  I gasped when he ripped my blouse including my bra, and dipped his head on the valley of my breasts. My protests died when he took my nipples with his mouth and swirled his tongue around it. And I gave him a long and needy moan which ignites more of his pleasure. The next thing I know.. we're dancing in the old rhythm and passion of our love.
