Chapter 9 - Piecing Together the Puzzle

But as suddenly as the memories had come, they were gone, leaving Andrew gasping for air and holding onto Alex for support. He looked up at him, trying to make sense of what had just happened.

"Young Master!"

"Young Master… Are you okay…?" Alex asked, and concern etched on his face.

Andrew nodded, still trying to catch his breath. "I don't know what just happened," he said, feeling dazed.

"Doctor!" Alex yelled.

"Doctor! Get over here. Hurry!" Alex called out in a panic.

Andrew's heart racing as he felt another wave of pain wash over him.

A person dressed in a white lab coat rushed over to him, their expression concerned as they took in the scene. "What's wrong?" they asked, moving to examine him.

Andrew tried to speak, but the pain in his head was too intense. The doctor quickly assessed him, checking his pulse and blood pressure. They asked him several questions about how he was feeling, but all Andrew could focus on was the pain.

"Slight nausea and a bit of headache, I guess..." Andrew managed to say through gritted teeth, as the doctor continued their examination.

The doctor nodded, looking deep in thought. "I think I know what's causing this," they said, looking at Andrew with a gentle smile.

Andrew felt a sense of relief wash over him as the doctor began to take action. He knew that he was in good hands and that they would find out what was causing his pain. He just hoped that it wasn't something serious.

The doctor looked at Andrew with a reassuring smile, "It's completely fine. You are alright. It's just that you were sleeping for three straight days, which is why you are feeling nausea and headache."

Andrew let out a sigh of relief, feeling a weight lifted off his shoulders. "That's it? I was just sleeping for too long?"

'Wait…. Does that mean this body was in coma for three days…?'

'What happened to the owner of the body…'

The doctor nodded, "Yes, that's it. Your body needs time to adjust after such a prolonged period of sleep. But rest assured, you are perfectly healthy and there's nothing to be worried about."

Andrew let out a sigh of relief, feeling grateful for the doctor's reassurance. "Thank you, doctor," he said, feeling a sense of gratitude.

"I was so worried that something was seriously wrong with me."

The doctor smiled and patted his shoulder, "No need to worry, you're fine. Just make sure to take it easy for the next few days and let your body fully recover. And if you have any more symptoms or concerns, don't hesitate to come back and see me."

Andrew nodded, "I will, thank you again." He felt grateful for the doctor's care and attention. He knew that he had a lot to catch up on and figure out, but for now, he was just happy to be alive and well.

'I want to know what happened to the owner of this body but…'

'I don't want to feel the same pain again' Andrew sighed.

Andrew went through the memories he had just received, trying to make sense of them. Each one was like a puzzle piece that he needed to fit into the bigger picture. He remembered moments of laughter and joy, but also moments of pain and heartache.

He knew that he needed to piece together these memories to understand who he was and what had happened to the person whose body he was now in. As he sifted through the memories, he couldn't help but feel a sense of unease, not knowing what he might discover.

As he went through the memories, a face stood out to him - Alex. He remembered Alex from his past, his butler who was same age as him, but he was much more than a personal assistance. He remembered their adventures and the way they laughed together and all other precious memories they shared together.

"Alex…"

"it's a pretty name," Andrew mumbled faintly with a smile, still trying to process the memories and emotions that were flooding back to him.

"Did you say something, Young Master?" Alex asked, leaning in closer to hear him.

Andrew shook his head, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Ah! No... no…", he replied, trying to brush it off.

Andrew couldn't help but feel a flutter of warmth in his chest as he looked at Alex. He was always so concerned for him, always looking out for him. And despite everything that had happened, he still couldn't help but feel drawn to him.

Alex had a cheerful expression on his face, and Andrew couldn't help but admire his handsome features. His skin was a smooth and pristine white, and his eyes held a golden glow that seemed to show just how much he cared for Andrew.

But it wasn't just his eyes that Andrew found himself drawn to. Alex's hair was a rich brown, cut perfectly to frame his face in a way that made him look even more attractive. And as he looked at him, Andrew couldn't help but think that he was the cutest person he had ever met.

Alex looked at him with concern, "Are you sure you're, okay? You seemed to be in a lot of pain earlier."

Andrew nodded, "I'm fine, just a bit tired and disoriented. But thank you for being here, Alex. I don't know what I would have done without you."

Alex smiled, his eyes filling with emotion. "I'll always be here for you, Young Master. You can count on me."

His past was still a blur to him, and he knew that there were still many unanswered questions that he needed to find the answers to. He didn't know why he couldn't remember anything before the accident, and he knew that it was something that was weighing heavily on him.

Andrew felt a warmth in his chest as he looked at Alex, knowing that he had someone who truly cared for him. He knew that he still had a lot to figure out.
