Someone's POV
Daniel was drunk on alcohol and was lying on the bottom of his bed all day and night.
He didn't realize that Nik was knocking inside his room. His daddy called his friend because he hadn't eaten for several days and didn't coming out of his room.
Both of his parents were very worried about him.
'What are we waiting for let's open the door!!!' Amelia yelled at Alejandro because they didn't know what happened to their son.
'Get the key, what are you waiting for?! Now!' Amelia shouted at their maids.
'He just opened the door thinking when he was going to ask for wine, but he barely eat the food we brought for him. A while ago he threw away the food we brought along with the delivery of his wine' said their maid who herself told them about the condition of their son inside his room
Amelia was biting her nails very much and was very worried for his only child.
She didn't think that his son loved for Aaliyah is so much for this to happen like this.
Meanwhile, Alejandro and Nik are uneasy while waiting for a key duplicate of Daniel's room. There was a trace of worry in all of them.
'let me open it!' Alejandro quickly took the key from their maid's hand and immediately opened the door.
They stared at the appearance of Daniel's room, almost as if it had been stormed with so much chaos. Broken expensive items and piles of wine bottles and cigarette butts on the floor. The wounds of his fist as a sign of punching the wall, and until now the almost dried blood can still be seen.
He was leaning forward with his head resting on his knees. It's as if the sky and the earth crashed down on him.
'Son' came out of Alejandro's mouth as he stared at the appearance of his only child.
Meanwhile, Amelia couldn't bear to see her son's condition so she left his room crying while holding her hands between her nose and lips so as not to create noise around her. As soon as she got out of his room, she let out a sob that she had been suppressing for a while.
Conscience suddenly enveloped her entire being and as a mother it was very painful to see her only child in such a state.
...
Alejandro left his son's room because he knew about his situation now there is nothing they can do as its parents. The only thing he can do is watch his every move in the possibility that he might hurt himself as well.
'Bro' Nik said to Daniel. He is sorry for his friend and also for Aaliyah whose hearts are almost equally hurt. He wanted to tell Aaliyah the truth because maybe somehow Aaliyah would understand Daniel's situation, but since Daniel begged him not to tell Aaliyah, he didn't do it anymore. He just respected his friend's wishes.
'Bro is it okay to join you?' He said again and sat next to him. Various wines were scattered around, some were completely empty, and there were some that he hadn't drunk yet.
He opened a beer and gulped it down immediately even though it wasn't too cold.
Daniel doesn't speak. He lifted his head from his crouch and took the bottle of hard wine that was almost half full and poured it into a glass in front of him.
'Bro, Aaliyah is calling you. Maybe you can fix it. Maybe there is still hope for the two of you' said Nik without looking at him. They were both looking at the front door.
But Daniel just drank wine.
'She's hurting because of me.' Daniel said softly as tears fell from one of his eyes.
Nik looked at him.
He feels sorry for his friend.
'Bro, just don't let your self down like this. Talk to her.' He said to him.
'But that fucking woman saying she's pregnant. We're hopeless. I don't want her to suffer more because of me' Daniel said as his tears flowed down his cheeks.
Nik nodded and understood what was inside his friend.
'Bro, it's okay to get drunk. You need to be alone first. If you think there is no hope for you, don't give up on yourself. I'm just here bro' Nik said while tapping Daniel's shoulder and then stood up.
'the maid will clean your wound. It might get infected. Someone will also clean your room. I'll leave you for now' Nik said sadly to him. Daniel didn't answer. It just keeps pouring in the wine.
Nik went out and then he let in the one who would clean Daniel wounds as well as the one who would clean his room.
.....
The next morning, Daniel still looked the same. He hasn't eaten yet and is almost sleeping on the floor with his head down. He has no appetite at all. He couldn't feel the hunger but the pain in his heart and the weight he was feeling.
His eyes looked at his cellphone. He searched on top of his bed, in the bag and on the table but it was not there.
He was about to go out to look for his cellphone when he noticed that it was slightly out from under his bed.
He immediately returned to his seat and opened his cellphone.
He was even sadder when he saw Aaliyah's face on the screen.
He was crying as he caressed her picture. The only woman he loved like this. In his mind, if Aaliyah were to disappear from his life, it would be better to just disappear.
'I'm sorry' he whispered.
After a while text messages from Aaliyah popped up one by one..
Can we talk?
I don't believe you can do this to me. Is it just a prank? Tell me!
Did you really cheat on me? Is that why you fell out of love?
Have I not been enough for you?
What reason? How did you do this to me?
Daniel, please call me. I want to hear your explanation. I want you to explain!!!!
Daniel please, call me!!! Just lie to me please?! Is that possible? Huh? Just lie!!!!!
You don't like me? Why did you forget me?
Do you love her that much?
Don't you love me?
I love you so much. I can forgive you now as long as you lie to me. Come back, Daniel please?
You're driving me crazy!!!!
I'm going home now. I will wait for you.
I miss you. :(
110 miscalls...
His eyes widened at what he read. The force of his chest thumped. The effect of alcohol suddenly disappeared from him.
He stood up and almost panicked because of he didn't know what to do first. He fixed himself and took the key to his bigbike. This is what he thought he would use to get to Aaliyah faster.
He ran towards the outside of their garage where his bike was. He didn't ignored his parents' calling and stopping him.
The only thing on his mind at this time is to go to Aaliyah immediately.
He is very eager to see her face, hug and kiss her.
He will never allow her to lose again because he has proven that he can't. It's better for him to die than not to be with the girl he loves the most.
...
He's already halfway there at the house where he and Aaliyah live. He was running so fast that he was doing almost all of his groin on the road because he couldn't wait to see Aaliyah.
At the last stoplight he had to turn left. After a minute and the light turned green, he was about to cross when suddenly a van came speeding from his right and because of its high speed, he couldn't avoid it.
BOOOOOOOGSHH!
He fell due to the force of the collision with him and so did his big bike which is now almost flat.
He immediately lost consciousness along with the commotion of the people around him. Some of them immediately called for help because of the damage he suffered from the accident.
Call an ambulance!
Help!
Hurry up! He needs to be taken to the hospital immediately!

Aaliyah's Pov
I was surprised when my cellphone suddenly fell to the floor even though I was holding it at the same time as my chest thumped..
'What is that? ?' Lyca asked while rushing from the kitchen.
'I don't know why I dropped it, I'm holding it' I said while picking up my phone from the floor.
'Well, it's broken Bessy ' she said sadly.
'It's okay' I said to her with a small smile.
'Let's buy to the mall later, okay? Hang in there..' she said and led me to the dining table.
'Are you okay?' Lyca asked me. I just nodded my head but deep inside, I felt so heavy.
'Ofcourse you're not okay' she said as soon as we reached the dinning table.
'It's been a few days.. He hardly answers my calls and texts.. whatever else I want also hear his explanation! I still want to forgive him!
'Whyis is he like this, he really don't care about me! Am I just nothing with him?!' This time I almost let out my feelings to my friend.
I was crying while sitting on the dining chair.
I hid my face in my two palms.
'I miss him so much. ' I said between crying like a child who misses her parents.
I cried so Lyca hugged me.
She's crying too..

One week later
Someone's POV
'Doc, what happened to my son??! He doesn't remember what happened to him?' Amelia asked the doctor worriedly.
'Yes Mrs. Amelia, He had a traumatic brain injury and a minor memory loss. He didn't remember his current situation or before the accident, but it's for the meantime. Maybe a month, if he recovers early, he will be back to normal. We just have to pray for his fast recovery' explained the doctor who is now in front of Amelia.
Alejandro washed his face while sitting on the bed next to his son Daniel.
'Thanks doc!' Amelia cried to the doctor and then held the hand of her son who had just woken up from his critical condition from the accident.
'Mom, what happened? Why am I here?' Daniel asked his mother. He was confused by what was happening and how he was suddenly in the hospital. He barely remembers anything.
'Dad?' He turned to his father with only tears, his mother answered him.
'Get some rest, son. You need to rest first' Alejandro said because he was sorry for his son's condition..
'Son, I'm here. Mom is here. I'm just here, son.' Amelia was crying and said to her son who had scars all over his body as well as his handsome face.
Daniel just stared at the ceiling in confusion because no matter what he thought, he couldn't remember anything.
...
'Try it!!!' Amelia shouted at Alejandro while they were on the rooftop. Amelia followed him here to stop him from trying to call Aaliyah.
'What's wrong with you? Aaliyah has a right to know everything because they are lovers! They had a baby! The other day I was supposed to tell her that Daniel was in the hospital, but I stopped myself because of what the two of them are going through now. But now that your daughter is awake, I will tell her to come!' Alejandro shouted at his wife.
'Your child has amnesia!!!! Can't you see what happened to him???!!! You will not tell her no matter what!'
'We will not tell Daniel the truth.. did you see what happened to our son?! What is the reason why your son is lying here in the hospital?! Didn't you feel sorry for him the moment you saw him wasted because of Aaliyah?!!! On the first day when the hospital called us and while your son is loosing his life in front of us?! What's the point if you tell Aaliyah?!! Will it change anything that Daniel had a child with someone else?! Is that what you want us to tell him first now that he can't remember?! That he cheated on his fiancee?! So he had an accident?! Fuck Alejandro!!! That girl is more important to you more than your own child?!' Amelia shouted at him and cried as she left in front of him.
Alejandro was left stunned by what his wife said.
He thought what she said was right. Maybe it's better this way and it would be better for his son to forget that he hurt the woman he loved. It is also for their own good.
...
'Your here!' Amelia smiled at Trixie.
'Yes aunty, how is Daniel? Why doesn't he know me?' Trixie asked Amelia.
'Mom? Who is she?' Daniel asked his mother while seriously looking at trixie .
'Ah, son.. she is trixie. Your soon to be bride. You are going to have a baby. She's pregnant' said Amelia smiling to her son. Amelia smiled at Trixie as she sat next to Daniel. She is also signaled it to just agree with everything she was saying.
'Hi love. How are you? Is something still hurting you?' said Trixie while holding Daniel's hand.
Amelia smiled.
'I can leave you there for now, right?' Amelia said and left the VIP room where Daniel was confined.
'Love, didn't you really remember me?' This is an innocent question to Daniel. Daniel simply smiled at her because he was still confused about what was happening. he doesn't remember anything and then now he suddenly has a child?
He couldn't believe it.
'I'm sorry, I really don't remember anything' he said with a guilty conscience.
Trixie smiled secretly. It seems like last time, Daniel almost strangled and killed her, and now he was like a gentle sheep in front of her.
How lucky I am! In hermind.
She took advantage of the opportunity. She showed her pictures of her and Daniel together to make him believe that apart from having children, they will also soon get married.
Daniel looked at the photos one by one from his cellphone. Even Trixie's ultrasound picture was not missed.
'We're deeply in love with each other's love. Actually, even though you don't want a child, you're the one who requested that you want us to have children before the wedding' she still lied here.
And because he doesn't remember anything, he just nods and sincerely listens to all her lies.
'Love, you don't know how miserable I am when you were unconscious for more than a week. I miss you so much' she said while crying so that Daniel would be more believable and have mercy on her. Trixie uttered.
'It's okay love I promise I'll'make it up for you and to our baby okay?' He said sorry her.
Daniel nodded and finally sent all of Trixie's lies.
...
'Since Daniel is sick, I will attend the business trip to Canada first. Take care of your child and don't do silly things!' Alejandro said authoritatively to Amelia while carrying a suitcase out of the house.
'Don't worry, I won't abandon your child because he is also my child. What you need to understand is that you're pregnant mistress and how you're going to hide it from media! I know she's coming with you to Canada!' Amelia responded by snorting at Alejandro.
Alejandro just shook his head at her and didn't care about her anymore.
She glared at him and then dialed her cellphone.
'Fix all of Daniel's social media accounts. Make sure to delete all the traces of that girl. Even the canceled engagement party, take all of that away and all you'll be left with are Trixie's bright faces?' Amelia ordered her staff on the other line and immediately ended the call.
'Make sure his room is clean and tidy. All the stuff that that woman brought from their house, throw it away! Don't leave anything behind!' Amelia shouted at the maids while cleaning Daniel's room.
...
One month later
Aaliyah's Pov
I was looking at Liam's grave sadly. I'm trying not to cry when I'm going to visit his grave. I don't want him to see me cry all the time.
'Son, I'm sorry if mom leaves you first..' I talked to my son while she was caressing Liam's grave.
'I have to do something so that mom can continue.. If I don't do it, I think I might have to do something with myself' I started crying.
Immediately Vince supports me from behind.
'Mama is in trouble.. I don't know if she can cope. Your daddy has left us.. even a little, he doesn't care about us anymore' I cried more and more.
'Mama is leaving' I said smiling as I calmed down a little bit but tears were still coming down my cheeks.
I slowly walked away and walked towards Vince's car.
'Are you sure you're ready?' Vince asked me again before I got into his car.
I nodded and simply smiled. He opened the car door for me and then we quickly left for the airport.
My eyes were almost swollen so I wore shades to not draw too much attention to my eyes.
He hardly spoke to me during the whole flight. Vince. He knows what I'm going through, and he knows all the pain I'm feeling right now.
They will accompany me to the states. I want to go away first. I want to forget it immediately. I thought if I stay away, I will forget him and the pain I feel.
I caressed my rather round belly. I am three months pregnant. I was pregnant for a month when Daniel and I broke up.
It happened again.
I will give birth again without him by my side. My fatherless son..
Tears fell from my eyes again without realizing it.
