Chapter 16
Flashbacks.
Each time she tries to fall asleep, she dreams of him. She has no idea who he is. But she can't do this to Theo who has been nothing but good to her.
He is her husband.
The Dream.
"Arian, please listen to me. I know that you love me as much I love you", he breathes out as he brushes his lips against hers.
"Please", he whispers as he leans to kiss her again but this time with no regrets from the both of them.
She wrapped her legs around his waist and pulled him closer, feeling his hardness rub against her.
"I don't want you to stop" Arian whispers in his ears as he can feel his hands gripping harder on her ass as he led her to their bedroom.
Arian caresses the tattoo on his chest.........
End Of Dream.
She wakes up sweating all over. Theo doesn't have tattoos, who is he?
Arian needed to find out who he is. But the main question is how does she do that without hurting Theo.
She walked out of her room and went to the kitchen to get a glass of water.
Ever since she moved in with Theo, he has been good to her, and he has also given her, her room.
What if they are memories from my past? Maybe he was someone I met but I never had a boyfriend before Theo.
"Hey, couldn't sleep?" Theo asked her when she walked into the kitchen.
"Yeah, sorry did I wake you?" she asks him. But he shook his head telling her no.
"No, I couldn't sleep either. I came to get a glass of water".
Arian turned to face Theo. She needed answers but didn't want to make Theo feel that she was cheating on him with the guy in her dreams.
"Theo, can I ask you a question?".
"Sure, go ahead".
"Did we love each other?" Arian asks him.
"Arian...."
"No, enough. Tell me the truth. I deserve to know".
Theo took a sit on the chair and cleared his throat.
This is it. Mandy, I wish you were here to help me with this.
"No, we were arranged to marry by our parents. It was an arranged marriage that was planned but I wasn't in love with you", he explained everything that happened apart from his cheating on her with Veronica.
"Thank you, for the truth. Good night", Arian walked back to her room.
"Arian...."
"It is okay, Theo. Thank you for telling me the truth. Goodnight".
Who else is lying to me?
My parents
Mandy?
Who are you?
Arian tried to get some sleep but all she did was toss and turn until it reached morning. She got up early before Theo did so that she could go and see her best friend Mandy.
Arriving at Mandy's place, Arian knocks on the door. But it wasn't Mandy or Mike who opened the door. It was the guy from the hospital.
Liam.
He wasn't wearing a shirt, Arian looked everywhere else except him.
"Sorry is Mandy here?", Arian asks him.
"They are in the hospital getting a checkup for Mandy. Come in and you can wait for them", he moved aside and let Arian inside the house.
"Thank you", she tells him looking at his chest. She was shocked to see the same tattoo as in her dreams.'
It can't be him.
"Can I get you some water?", Liam asks her. She shook her head telling him no.
"I have to go. I am sorry..."
As she was about to get up her head started paining making her fall on the floor.
"Crap, Arian. Please wake up", Liam picked her up and put her on the couch.
He went to the kitchen to get a glass of water.
Flashback In Arian's head.
Liam stroked his hardness as he stalked closer to the bed, then he wrapped his arms around her thighs and pulled her a the edge of the bed.
He knelt on the ground and his fingers caressed the insides of her thighs, sending shivers up her legs.
He started giving her kisses down inside her thighs, coming close to her entrance but never coming close to it.
Arian gripped the bedsheets needing Liam's touch, as she placed her hips closer to his mouth.
End Of Flashback.
Arian felt someone sprinkle water on her face. When she opened her eyes, she saw him. The man she has been dreaming about.
"I have to go. Tell Mandy to call me", she rushed outside and ran until she reached a park.
Arian sat down feeling confused about what she felt about the feelings, the dreams she was having.
"He has the same tattoo. How could this be? I am a married woman who dreams of someone else that's not my husband".
She didn't realize that it had started raining.
"Aren't you cold?' someone asks her holding an umbrella over her.
She looked up to see an old man with his wife.
"No, I don't feel cold. But thank you for your concern", she smiles at the couple.
"Could I give you some advice, my dear?", the old couple took a seat beside Arian.
"Sure".
"Don't give up on love. The memories of it, the feelings you feel when you are with him. Cherish that".
"Thank you. Even though I don't remember anything. I have amnesia and I have no idea who I am or who I love", Arian explains to them. Tears pour down her eyes.
"I think he has the answers to your questions", the old man pointed at someone who was in front of them.
Arian looked up and she saw Liam standing there drenched in the rain looking at her.
"Arian, can we talk, please?" he asks her.
"Go ahead dear. Talk to him."
"Thank you for everything", she tells them getting up from the bench.
"What are you doing here, Liam?". Instead of answering Liam took her hand and led her to a café.
"I am here because I am worried about you. When you left in a hurry, I was worried about you....."
"Stop, Liam. I just want to know the truth. Who are you to me?. I need you to be honest", she tells him.
"I am a friend...."
I need the truth, please. Or else I will leave and never come back", she warned him.
"I love you, Arian..."
"I don't remember you but I keep having these dreams about you and me together. But I am not supposed to have them because I am a married woman", she looks at Liam with tears in her eyes.
"And everyone is either lying or hiding things from me. Mandy, Mike, and Theo and now you", she added.
"Arian, what do you mean?" Liam asked but she shook her head.
"I keep having these dreams about you but I didn't know it was you until I saw your tattoo on your chest. You got it for someone, right?", Arian asked him pointing at his chest.
"Yes, I did it for you. You love Lillies. They are your favorites", he explains to her.
Liam explained everything to her except for the part where Theo cheated on her with her sister. That wasn't for him to say.
The heart will always remember when the mind forgets.
