Synopsis

Chapter 1 - prologue

A girl of about 22 years old woke up on a hospital bed. She couldn't recognize anything and couldn't remember anything either. She saw a lady sleeping by her bed side. She just stared at her until the lady eventually woke up.

"You're awake!" The lady said with relief but she didn't say anything. "Are you alright? Do you hurt anywhere?" The lady kept asking but she kept quiet. She looked around and then touched her hand. There was a needle fixed to her veins, connecting to the drip just by her left side.

"Where? What? Who? And why?" She asked in a really confusing way. Her words seemed to be Jammed.

The lady surely didn't understand her.

"What do you mean?" The lady asked and she shook her head.

"Who am I?" She asked but the lady didn't look shocked at all. It was like she was expecting such a question. "Who are you?"

"You're Ivy, Ivy Carter and I'm your Aunt, Matilda." She introduced.

"And where am I? What am I doing here?" Ivy kept asking.

"You're at the hospital. You got into an accident so I brought you here." Matilda explained.

"I don't feel pains anywhere." She said and then touched her head, there was a bandage wrapped around her head. "Oh!" She exclaimed.

"I'm going to take you home once the doctors have discharged you, okay?" Matilda said and Ivy nodded.

From then, Ivy started living with Matilda not having memory of her previous life at all. The only one she had and could rely on was Matilda.

For some reason, Matilda didn't want Ivy to find out her past and each time she asked for a bit of information on what led to her memory loss, Matilda would make up stories leading her to have no recollection whatsoever.

Matilda enrolled Ivy into a business college with the excuse that Ivy dropped out a year ago due to health issues but had a fiery passion for business.

Truly, Ivy discovered she loved the business world and wanted to be a successful business woman.

For two years, Ivy was doing well in school and was happy even if she had no recollection of the past. This happiness gradually faded as Matilda was found dead in an alleyway.

Police investigated and discovered her to have been shot by a stray bullet from a gang fight nearby.

Ivy was heartbroken and sad. All she has was gone. She felt that the only thing filling her oblivious life was gone and now she had to walk a path she was unaware of.

Leaving the hardship aside, Ivy decided to move on and live life to the fullest. Graduate, get a job, get married and have kids. A simple life! But even that was impossible for someone like her.
