Newwie's POV
I stood on my spot waiting for a reaction from Kim. I was starting to regret the ultimatum that I declared to him. I had just blurted it out without thinking. In my fear that Kimmon was falling for hs attending physician, I had let my emotions take over my brain.
I noticed the wide eyed indecision on his face.
Suddenly Dr. K bent towards him and whispered something in his ear.
Whatever that bloody bastard of a doctor had whispered to Kimmon caused a sudden change in Kimmon's facial expression. He no longer looked undecided. Instead, there was a look of resolve on his face.
"Newwie," he said in a firm voice, "do as you wish."
I couldn't believe what I just heard. And then I remembered belatedly that it was not my Kimmon that was talking just now. It was a Kimmon that had lost his memory... his sweet memories of him and me and the love we had shared that had culminated in our decision to get engaged.
I slowly walked towards him, ignoring Earth who had made a move to grab my arm.
When I reached Kim's side, I bent and placed my warm arms around him.
"Kim, sweetheart," I whispered in his ear, ignoring the hostile glare from Dr. K, "I know that you're doing this because you can't remember who I am. You can't remember that you and I are fiances and that I love you so very, very much. I regret what I just said a while ago. I will leave you right now but I will continue to wait until your memory comes back and then we will be together again, loving each other once more, the way we did before all of this happened, okay?"
When I finished what I had to say, I placed my hands on either side of Kim's face. Then I slowly lowered my face to him and gently planted my lips on his.
Earth and Dr. K simultaneously pulled me away, with Earth grabbing my arm and pushing me towards the door.
"You haven't seen the last of me," I hissed at Earth before marching out the door.
Kimmon's POV
That kiss... that kiss... Newwie's lips on mine...
I felt a sharp twinge in my head.
A few blurry images flashed through my brain. Even though the images were hazy I could make out the face.
His face... Newwie's very good looking face... we were together... his face... it's Newwie's face... I am standing with my arms outstretched... he's walking towards me... he's giving me a loving look that's melting my heart ...
Bbbrrrrrrrnnngggggg... %&*#! ... GOD FUCKING DAMMIT ! ! !
I can't remember anything else!!!!!!! This was so frustrating. I felt so helpless and hopeless.
I buried my face in my hands, sobbing uncontrollably.
I felt Dr. K's arms go around me. His arms felt so warm and comforting like a safe shelter in a frightening storm. I could stay in there forever.
"It's okay, it's okay," he said gently, "you will be okay. Trust me, you will be okay. I'm right here. I will be with you until you recover from all of this."
I knew he was right but still I could not help venting my frustration.
"I was having some memory recall and then it disappeared!" I exclaimed at him, my tears burning my cheeks as they flowed continuously.
"I know, I could tell," said Dr. K in a reassuring voice. He bent once more and ran his hands soothingly up and down my back. "Don't agonize over it. Everything will come slowly back to you. You just have to be patient and not worry too much. I promise I will be with you until you recover."
I straightened up and sat stiffly, looking wide eyed at Dr. K when I realized the implication of what he had just said. I needed to clarify something with him. I badly needed his reassurance once more.
"Until I recover... until I recover... and then what, you're going to leave me?" I grabbed Dr. K's arm, "you're going to leave me after I recover???"
