Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

“Of course, you can. Come on in!” Josephine opened the door to let Ethan in. Once he entered, he went to sit on the couch and asked, “Can you tell me how we met?”

After taking out her iPad, she said, “Here are photos and videos of us. Let’s look at them together. He excitedly nodded while she sat beside him. Then, he leaned closer to her and placed his arm behind her so that it was easier to view the screen.

Sniffing the familiar scent mixed with the faint smell of disinfectant, Josephine had the illusion that he had not gotten amnesia and they were still as close as before. The sensation of his breath on her neck gave her a sweet feeling as though they were dating again.

She felt her heart beating wildly; even her breathing seemed slightly hitched. Then, she relaxed while leaning into the man’s arms, making Ethan smile while greedily breathing in the faint fragrance in her hair.

When Josephine found their wedding photos and videos, she told him that was where they first met. Ethan looked at himself in the picture. Although he could not remember what happened then, he seemed genuinely happy inside the photograph, and from his gaze, it was clear he was looking at Josephine through the lens because he was not staring at her reflection.

Inside the video, he heard his laughter mixed with her delicate voice, concrete proof of a smitten couple. It turned out that they fell for each other several days after they first met.

“So, who fell in love first?” he asked. She looked at him. “You pursued me.” Ethan narrowed his eyes, knowing she would not lie to him about that. “So, I gathered.”

Then, Josephine found a picture of the villa he specially bought for them in the city. She had taken photos of many details from the building and made it into a very romantic video that included him, her, and several warm-hearted scenes in their home. The video reminded them of the passion of summer, the cool of spring. the romance of autumn, and the warmth of winter.
