"The other time, she forgot to eat" he said when he was eating and remembered her, he packed some lunch and drove to her workplace
"You? Here?"
"I miss you, have you eaten? Don't lie" he said and she shook her head
"Here I brought you food"
"I can't, I am the only one here I need to attend to the customers"
"Sit down and eat and tell me what I have to do"
"No you can't"
"Why Lena? Don't forget I used to do these things"
"No I mean, what if people recognize you?"
"Give me your hat, I came here with a mask" he put them on and she told him what to do
She was grateful, she smiled looking at him
"Don't stare too much, you might fall in love all over again" he said and she looked away
When she was done
"Don't worry, rest a little"
After a while
"Go to your car, my shift is over the other person will soon arrive I don't want anyone to see you here"
"Lena are you ashamed of me?"
"Are you crazy why would I? It should be the other way round, I don't want any rumors about you"
Not that he cared tho but he still went out but waited for her
"You're still here?"
"Yeah, today I am spending the day with you"
"Please go home, I will meet you. I can't work with you around"
"No ok I will just wait for you in my car"
He waited for her, Lena had to call Jonas to skip work she went to her house with him
And he cooked for her and left when it was getting dark
The following week another member of V5 had released his album and the others went there to show support
"So when is yours coming"
"Mine? Maybe next year, I am the last one to drop an album…. Wait are you trying to get rid of me"
"No!!!"
"Don't worry I was kidding"
Months of dating since they separated and United and everything was going on well till Aidan noticed lena was having occasional memory gaps, such as Misplacing everyday items and Forgetting familiar names
"Lena are you ok?"
"Why?"
"You were looking for your phone?"
"Yeah,I can't remember where I put it?"
"It's in your hands"
"Huh? Look at that" she smiled
"Are you really ok?"
"Yeah don't worry, work has been tiresome"
The excuse she always gave
"Then quit, I will take care of you"
"Aidan don't worry, I will be fine" she said but he was not convinced
"Ok I will take this week off to rest"
"Promise?"
"Yeah"
She really did, and they were together most of the time and he gave her space to rest even though he missed her, her health was important he doesn't know how to survive without her, that was how much he loved her
Lena had a lot on her mind
"Did those guys come here again" she asked Jonas
"No. Lena we need to take care of them"
"I am trying Jonas, I have gathered some money but it's still not enough. I am really trying I have been working tirelessly but it's still not enough"
"Stop worrying I have arranged some money too, bring what you have so I can give it to them and buy us some time"
"No Jonas you have done enough"
"Lena let me keep my promise to your mom"
"You've done that and more"
"Lena you've been working for me for free, ok just take it as a loan pay me back after we pay the rest"
"Jonas"
"Lena solving this issue is what's important"
"10years and we still haven't been able to solve this issue"
"What issue?" Aidan came there
"Nothing just some random thing, what are you doing here?"
"I miss you and it's getting late I want to take you home, hello Mr Jonas"
"Hello"
"Aidan wait for me in your car I will be with you in a second"
"Lena your boyfriend seems rich why not ask for help"
"No!! We've been able to pay more than half without his help, we can pay the rest"
"Exactly Lena what's left might be a problem for us but I don't think it will be for him"
"No he has enough money problems with his parents, I will come up with something"
"I am just worried, that time they nearly killed you if not that I gave them a quarter of the money"
"Don't worry everything will be fine"
"Lena in this all don't forget to take care of yourself"
