Sarah Jones woke up when a nurse came to check her condition. Her mother has gone to their home to prepare some home cooked meals for her. Only after her relentless persuasion did her mother leaves her alone to think about everything.
She heard a 'ding' sound from her room. There, she saw her mobile laying on the bedside table. First, she took the mobile and opened the selfie camera to see her new face. The face she saw was somewhat familiar to her. But she can't remember where she'd seen this face.
After pondering for sometime, she thought,' I will think about it later. I have more important things to think.. now'.
She remembered the face of her ex-husband, Rick Robinson, 30 year old handsome man. But he is sick in the head, not literally though. She married him because of her parents wish. He is the son of her father's friend.
Sarah didn't have any friends as she was little introverted. But she had a male bestfriend whom she loved dearly. Her parents didn't know about this.
Her parents thought she would've a happy marriage with Rick. Because they've known him since his childhood. What they didn't expect is, the torture of his mother and his abusive nature.
Sarah didn't know much about Rick. She'd seen him in family functions and get together parties. She just obeyed her parents as she thought their choice won't be bad , eventhough her heart belongs to someone else. But man, how she is wrong. Atleast, she should've spoken to him before their marriage.
She thought she'd talk to him after the wedding ceremony. Their marriage happened within a week after the proposal made by Rick's father, Mr. Robinson. Everything was rushed, she didn't have time to think properly.
On their wedding night, when he came to their room, he tried to force himself on her. She cried and shouted for help. Her cries caught the attention of his parents and relatives. They came to their room to check on them. Sarah, immediately dashed out of the room in disheveled appearance.
Rick's pride got hurt by his wife. While many woman are dying to have him as their boyfriend or husband, here, his wife is running away from him just when he wants to be intimate with her.
Sarah didn't tell anyone about this as she was ashamed. From then on, her husband made her life living hell. He tried to force himself on her many times. When he didn't get succeeded, he'd beat her and cursed her. And then, he'd started to pleasure himself infront of her while watching porns or talking to other girls. He forced her to watch everything.
Her mother-in-law started to pressure her for grandchild after a month of her marriage. Days passed by, months passed by, Sarah become accustomed to her husband's behaviour and her mother-in-law's taunting.
She'd do household chores and would read books in her free time. She didn't tell anything about this to her parents. She didn't want them to worry about her.
One day, Rick came home with a good looking woman who was dressed in revealing clothes to home. He bought her straight to their bedroom. Sarah who was sleeping on the bed woke up when she feels someone approached her.
Rick didn't speak anything to her. He took her to a chair and tied her hands and legs with a rope. Sarah didn't understand what was going on until the other two moved towards the bed while kissing each other.
She was forced to watch her husband having sex with another woman. She had heard about her husband having mistress from some peoples. But she didn't believe it. Now she believes that there will be no smoke without fire.
She cried, shouted them to stop and fainted while watching them. From that day, she didn't talk to anyone. One day, she escaped from her husband's nightmarish house to her parents home without telling anyone.
Her parents were shocked to see her at the door looking listless. She just hugged her mother and cried for a long time. Her parents didn't know the real reason for her return, but they know something must've happened at her husband's place for her to leave at midnight.
Robinson family tried to reach Sarah, but her parents didn't let them. Sarah filed for divorce and Rick signed it saying she'd regret everything and will come back to him.
She got divorced after one year of marriage.
She couldn't forget about the things done by her ex-husband. She couldn't sleep at night as she was plagued with nightmares. She didn't have any friends to share her problems and became depressed. She thought dying would be good as there would be no nightmare, no regrets,no Rick .... Nothing.
That's how Sarah Jones died and Lisa Wood woke up at her body. Lisa remember almost everything that happened in Sarah's life, but she can't remember her lover or bestfriend. His face was blurry. But his physique was familiar to her , just like Sarah Jones.
"What was his name again?", she thought. She was having headache after thinking for a while. So, she decided to take a walk at the garden at the backyard of the hospital.
The garden was well maintained and there are large trees and benches in the shades to rest.
"Ahh, it's nice to be healthy and alive" she thought and continued to walk. Suddenly, a child collided with her from the side, pushing her down and the child too fell near her.
Her head was spinning and seems she hit her forehead somewhere during the fall. She placed a hand on her head rubbing it while closing her eyes. She heard the child crying but the pain in her head was too much and her head was spinning that she couldn't open her eyes.
Then she heard a familiar voice scolding the crying child. She tried to open her eyes to see them. But the sunlight is too bright, she squinted her eyes while covering her eyes from sunlight.
"Miss. Are you okay?", again the familiar gentle voice. But now , he was speaking to her.
"I'm fine, Mister", she replied while removing the hand covering her eyes.
There, she saw him.... The man she loved with her all, the man she had hurted deeply, staring at her in concern.
Her eyes widened and she kept staring at him.
"Berty.....!?"
On the other hand, the man was equally shocked to see her.
" Sarah, how have you been? It's been a long time", he asked.
She snapped out of her stupor hearing his words forgetting the fact ,he was calling her with her new name.
Tears fell from her eyes one by one like raindrops. She immediately hugged him tightly while crying, " Berty.... Berty, I'm so happy to see you. Don't leave me, please. I'm scared", she said.
Robert was confused by her words and actions and his eyes widened as she was calling him "Berty", his nickname only used by a certain someone.
