The Memory Game
3.4k Views · Ongoing · Daisy Swift
The moment Alexander lost his memory, I chose to lie: "I'm your girlfriend."
I maintained that lie for seven whole years.
For seven years, I lived like a shadow by his side, watching the disgust in his eyes after his memory returned, enduring every humiliation he gave me for Charlotte's sake. Until I held our dead child and swallowed that bottle of sleeping pills.
When I was reborn and opened my eyes, facing the same amnesiac Alexander, this time I said: "I'm just your friend."
Then I turned around and married his brother Daniel.
When Alexander knelt in the rain crying and begging for my forgiveness, when he desperately rescued Daniel from the rubble, when he was finally found breathless in his room— I no longer wanted to look back.
