"You both are so mean, letting us worry will your enjoying yourselves " Joy scowled
"I wondered why you kept refusing us to visit, claiming you wanted to be alone " Lucian scoffed, "It was just an act so you could cuddle with him ".
Xavier smirked, "It was because your presence makes me lose my temper that we didn't want you here," he said.
Gerald sighed, "So you're okay even after being put to sleep by the devil himself. Something seems off "
"That's what I thought too, but it's been days and nothing has happened," Liana said.
"Maybe later we will know what he exactly did to you," Gerald said.
"My father has never done anything without reason but whatever it is I will fight it," Xavier said.
"So what should we have for dinner? We left the company without eating anything and I had nothing since morning " Joy tapped her tummy.
"You're always thinking about food just like a sister" Lucian stated.
Liana and Joy glared at him, "I think it's time for you to leave " his sister said.
Xavier got his phone, "Tell me what you want to eat, I will order " he said.
They laughed.
.....
"Since you returned to work you have been acting weird. So tell me what's wrong " Gerald said.
"You have been with me through all those past lifetimes. I never asked what happened 'cause it was all in the past but is there something you didn't tell me about any of them?" he asked.
"Why do you ask?" Gerald asked.
"Because am having backlashes but am not sure if it's mixing with these present ones" he frowned.
Gerald sighed, "Tell me what you see "
"I keep seeing Liana but she looks different and am in it with her and our surroundings keep changing. But when I try to focus they disappear like it was never there" he said.
Gerald was staring at him with worry.
"What do you think is going on?" he asked.
"He unsealed your past lifetime memories, that's what your father did ". he said.
Xavier's frown was replaced with confusion.
"My memories? then why is Liana in each of them, I just met her in this lifetime " he said.
"That, I will explain another time now let's focus on why this is happening," he said.
"Why did it take too long to show and why are they disappearing if he unsealed them?" Xavier asked.
"They have been sealed for centuries of course it would take a while for his powers to work on you again" Gerald explained.
"And the other thing?"
"That's the big problem. Your father unsealed your memories but is erasing all of them. They are what made you who you are now but with them gone you will return to the old Xavier he used to know " he explained.
"But I will still have my memories of this lifetime," Xavier said.
"They will be gone too, his erasing everything, resetting you to the son that once listened and obeyed him, " Gerald said.
Xavier got up, "He can't do that cause then I will forget Liana "
Gerald scoffed, "That is what he exactly wants. You showed him that you can't leave cause of her so his taking anything that reminds you of her and then you won't have anything tying you here "
Xavier felt his head hurt again, he clenched his fists in pain as he closed his eyes. . He could see Liana's image laying in bed next to him. She was wearing a white long night dress and was holding his hand. Her hair was different, brown but her eyes seemed familiar.
She smiled up at him, "Make sure to look for me in our next life " she said. But before he could say a word, the image disappeared.
Opening his eyes, he turned to Gerald.
"I don't know why I keep seeing her in my memories but I don't want to lose any memories of the Liana I have now," he said.
"Xavier we both know there is nothing we can do, only your father can change that and we both know he won't do that "
Xavier laid back in his seat, "Don't tell Liana until we find a way to stop this " he muttered.
"Your girlfriend is like a detective, she can smell a lie from a mile away. How do you want me to hide this from her if she starts asking questions about your endless headaches"
"Nothing act like a fool," he said getting up.
"Now where are you going? "
"To pick her up, it's almost time for her to leave work," he said.
"Oh wow. What a great boyfriend you are. Send my regards to her " Gerald laughed.
