01 Divorce and Heartbreak

(Winona)

It's been two months since I saw my husband Jayden. I'm almost positive he's coming to ask me for a divorce right now but I'm not giving up.

Three years ago, after a car accident, he lost his memory, and I lay in a coma for a year. When I woke up, all I wanted to do was see him again. All I wanted was for us to be the couple we once were.

When I found him, it was like a knife straight through my heart. Not only didn't he remember me, but he loved another woman, Ashlyn. My heart pounds and tears swell in my eyes as I listen to the husband I love speak to me over a call like he hates me more than anything else in the world.

"Despite what you did, I'm coming there," he seethes over the phone. "I want this over once and for all and I'm coming back to see that happens. I'll be there at dinner time."

He believes I drugged him into sleeping with me two months ago. "I did nothing. This is all a mistake, if only you could remember how much we loved each other..." I beg. "Don't start with these lies again," he roars.

My hands shake as I hold my cell phone away from my ear. My heart breaks all over again but I'm determined to help him remember me. One day he will. Please let him remember me.

"I'm not lying to you, I swear. I love you." My voice fades because I've almost given up hope on us. I let out a small sob despite myself.

"Don't start on fake tears. You're pathetic. I know what you're trying to do. Mother warned me you'd do this."

His mother always hated me. She never wanted him to marry me. I wasn't good enough. My family had no status or money. She'd forbidden him to marry me and said she'd cut him from the will and the family billions if he did.

But Jayden said he didn't care about what she said. He loved me and even if we had to start with nothing, we'd build our own world together. I was more important to him than money or his family who constantly hated anyone not in their financial league.
