The Accidental Wife by Sara Islam

Chapter 125 stunning

Silas was right. I had no reason to be scared of meeting them. They are all so nice and understand what I have been through. I thought that they would feel offended by how they were wiped away from my memory, but I was wrong. When Silas first rang the doorbell, a girl with black hair opened the door for us. She introduced herself as Sabrina. When I heard her name, I remembered what Silas told me about her. Sabrina and I have the same major and we have grown very close over the past year. I know that she is dating Knox, Silas's best friend. They met when I invited her once to one of the gatherings held at the team's house. She told me that she wanted to visit me at the hospital, but she didn't want to overwhelm me, so she opted to check on me from Silas until I gave him the green light that I was finally ready to meet them. "Can I ask you something?" I ask her as we're sitting in the backyard. Currently, the guys are in charge of the barbecue. They, apparently, know that I don't eat meat except for hotdogs, 'so they already have chicken breasts for me. This is very thoughtful of them. "Of course," she says, looking at me. "How was I with Silas before the accident? I mean... were we in love?" I hesitantly ask.

My question seems to take her by surprise, but I want to know how we were from somebody other than Silas. Maybe if I hear about our relationship from another point of view I will be able to remember anything.

I know it hasn't been long since I was last discharged from the hospital, but it's so hard to live with no memory of the last two years of your life. I'm tired of not remembering the people around me.

"You were really in love. Silas doesn't just love you, Rosie. He practically worships you. If he can make all your wishes come true, he will do it in a heartbeat. He is never embarrassed of showing affection to you in public. He is proud to be your boyfriend and is very protective of you," she tells me. I'm dying to remember all that she's telling me about. I want to remember this version of us. "Was I in love with him?" I ask, drawing invisible shapes with the tip of my fingers on my thigh.

"You do know that you guys used to fake date before you started to actually date, right?" I nod at her words. "And did he tell you about the fight you two had because of Everest?" Again, I nod. "After your fight, Silas started to pull himself away because he thought that it would I be the right thing to do. He wanted to give you space, but you hated every second of it, Rosie. You wanted to get back to how you two were. You were so ready to do anything to get that back." This is my first time learning anything about this. Silas did tell me about our fight because of Everest- who hasn't arrived yet, by the way- but he didn't tell me anything about how we spent some time apart. How would he have known about what I had done during that time?

"Did I do anything about that?" I wonder.

We

we were studying together and you texted him after we talked about him. I think your heart got broken that night, because when he came over and you two talked, he told you that he wanted to set some boundaries between the two of you and he said that he was going to keep his distance once the two months you had left in the fake-dating deal end," she gives me more details. "What brought us close?" I frown. It looks like our relationship is really interesting

didn't give me all the details, but you two got stuck in an elevator and you had a breakdown, then everything was fixed afterwards." I wish I had given her the details. Maybe I can ask Silas about that.

As we're talking, I see a guy making his way towards us. I think he has just arrived, because he wasn't there when Silas and I

came.

"This is Everest," Sabrina tells me. I automatically look at Silas and I find him staring at Everest. The way he has his fist clenched says a lot about the way he feels towards Everest. I know that he doesn't like him. "Rosie, it's so good to finally see you," Everest says with a huge sinile on his face as he stands in front of me.
