Chapter Thirty Five: My Happiness, Forever
~At night~
“Going home?” Han asked.
“Yap. Calvin is coming to fetch me. Gui, do you want us to give you a lift?” Hebe asked.
“It’s ok. I can go home myself with Chun.” Just as I finished packing, they appeared right at the door.
“What are the both of you doing?” Aaron and Wang Zi gave each other a stare. Aaron pushed Wang Zi away and walked up to me.
“Are you still angry with me?” Aaron asked me.
“I should be the one asking you this instead. I’m already married to you, why you are still getting jealous over Wang Zi issue?”
“Who ask him to be so close to you even though after we got married.” I let out a sigh.
“Mum, are you angry with dad?” Chun tugged my shirt. I squatted down. “No, Chun. Let’s go home ok?”
“Ok.” I held onto Chun’s hand and walked away.
“Gui..” Aaron said.
“Dad, let’s go.” Chun released my hand and ran to Aaron. “Dad, why are you not going?”
“Because your mum is still angry with me.”
“But mum said that she’s not angry with you.” Chun got puzzled and went to Wang Zi.
“Dad, why is mum angry with dad?”
“Chun, why are you still calling Uncle Wang Zi dad?”
“Because Uncle Wang Zi is my god dad so I call him dad. Mum says its fine.” Aaron looked at me.
I sigh. “Aaron..”
“Wang Zi, help me send Chun home.” I walked out of the shop immediately.
“Gui!” Aaron chased after me.
“Gui!” He caught my hand and stopped me from walking. I turned around and faced him.
“Ok. I lose. Don’t be angry already ok?” Aaron pleaded. I smacked his forehead.
“You are always like this.” I pouted. He smiled at me. He came forward and hugged me into his arms gently.
“I do not want to lose you again.” I smiled and hugged him back.
~Flashback~
~The day before my wedding~
“Aaron?” I knocked on Aaron’s room. He did not reply me. “Aaron? I’m coming in.” I slowly pushed open the door.
“Aaron?” My eyes widen. I dropped the glass of milk that I was holding on to. I dashed to Aaron immediately.
“Aaron!! Aaron!!” Tears started rolling down my cheeks. No matter how much I call him, he did not answer me. No matter how much I shook him, he did not open his eyes to look at me.
“Aaron!! You don’t scare me. Open up your eyes and looked at me. Is not funny. Aaron!!” Just then, Aaron’s dad and mum came into the room too.
“What happened??”
“Aaron..” Tears kept on flowing and flowing out. “How could you..”
“Quickly, send him to the hospital.” Aaron’s dad said.
Once we reached the hospital, they pushed Aaron in to check on him. After 30 minutes, the doctor came out.
“How’s my son?” Aaron’s mum said agitatedly.
“Calm down my dear.” Aaron’s dad calmed her down.
“Doctor, how’s Aaron? Don’t tell me that he’s tumor came back.” I blurt out forgetting that Aaron’s parents don’t know about it.
“What tumor?” Aaron’s dad looked at me.
“I..”
“Don’t worry. He’s just fainted because of tiredness. He should rest more. After that big illness he had, he should rest even more. Take good care of him. You all may go in and see him already.” The doctor smiled and walked away. I went into the room immediately. Aaron is still sleeping soundly. I looked at him.
“I’m sorry. I should have taken notice of you more.” Tears flow down my cheeks.
“Gui..” Aaron’s dad called me. I know what he was going to ask. The 3 of us went out of the room.
“I’m sorry uncle. I’m sorry for not telling you.” I told them what actually happen to Aaron in the past.
“I’m sorry.” I didn’t know why. Aaron is fine but I just broke down. Aaron’s mum hugged me into her arms.
“Silly girl.” She patted me on my back.
~The Next Day~
Just as I was about to wake up, I felt someone touching my head. The moment I looked up. Aaron was already awake. I smiled widely.
“I scared you, isn’t it?” Aaron said. I shook my head and held on to his hand.
“I’m sorry.” He touched my face and wiped off the tears. “I made you cry again.”
“Aaron, I..” He came forward to me and kissed my forehead and down to my eyes, proceeding to my cheeks and to my lips. He then hugged me tightly. Both of us did not say anything. The hug and kisses had already explained every feeling he have within him. And.. I understand.
~Our wedding day~
“Hello, Gui??” Hebe called me on the phone.
“I’m sorry for not able to attend your wedding. I’m pregnant now so I cannot fly over to England to attend your wedding. I told Calvin to go over but he said that he did not want to leave me alone in Taiwan. I’m sorry. But don’t worry. We send our presents there, together with our blessings to the both of you.”
“Thanks Hebe.”
“Gui, finally you found yourself a great guy to be with.” I smiled.
“Please be happy with him.”
“I will.”
“Take good care of yourself. And remember to come back to Taiwan to visit me and Calvin. Han and Jiro too. All of us miss the both of you.”
“Sure. Thank you.”
As the wedding bell rings, I walked into the church holding on to a bouquet of flower. Everyone stood up and started clapping as I walked on the red mat. And finally, I reached Aaron.
“Mr Aaron Yan, will you marry Ms Gui Gui as your wife, promise to protect and take care of her till death do you all part?”
“I do.”
“Ms Gui Gui, will you marry Mr Aaron Yan as your husband, promise to protect and take care of him till death do you all part?”
“I do.”
“You may exchange your rings now.” Both of us turned around and faced each other. The ring which was being hook onto my hand signifies that I’m his already.
“You may kiss the bride now.” Aaron lifts up my veil and kissed me on my lips. Both of us ran out of the church hand in hand and I threw the bouquet of flowers behind. Our wedding ended with lots of blessing and happiness. Mum, Dad, do you see it too? I looked up to the sky. Aaron pulled me into his hug.
“They will see it and I promise them to treat their daughter nicely, protecting her always.” I looked at Aaron. Tears flow down. He understands how I feel. He always knows what I am thinking. I hugged him tightly.
~End of Flashback~
“Let’s go back to get Chun and go home ok?” Aaron said. He held onto my hand and led me back. After walking a distance, I stopped.
“Gui?” He turned around and looked at me. I looked at him. I smiled. I put my hand over his neck, pulling him nearer to me. I planted a kiss on his lips. Both of us looked into each other eyes. He hugged me and kissed me passionately on my lips.
This is my happiness and it will always be.

#34 Gone?
Chapter Thirty Four: Gone?
*Gui Gui’s POV*
Aaron and I are now at a bridal shop searching for our gown.
“If ever Hebe is here, she would be able to give me some comments about the gown.” I pouted.
“You would be pretty no matter what you wear and I will still love you.” Aaron said. I giggled.
“Did you eat a lot of sweets just now? Why are your words sounded so sweet?” I smiled at him.
“Try on the gown first. I’m trying on mine too.” I nodded at him and went into the changing room. The moment I came out of the room, Aaron was already outside. I walked towards him.
“How do I look?” He turned around and looked at me. He didn’t reply me. I waved my hand in front of him.
“Is it very ugly?” He still didn’t reply. “I go and change then.” The moment I turned around and walked to walk away, he held onto me. I turned around and face him.
“Gui, you are beautiful.” He smiled.
“Are you sure?”
“Yea. I’m sure.” I smiled at him. “You looked handsome too.” I lift up my hand and adjust his bow for him.
He went up to me and hugged me. “Thank you.” I smiled.
~The day before my wedding~

“What happened??”
“Aaron..” Tears kept on flowing and flowing out. “How could you..”
~2 years later~
I’m at Taiwan now with Wang Zi walking beside me. Both of us are heading towards the florist shop. Just as we are getting closer to the shop, a little boy ran out of the shop.
“Dad!! Mum!!” I squatted down to carry him up.
“Chun, how many times have I told you not to run out like that?!” I said.
“I’m sorry, mum.”
“Chun, look at what we have bought for you.” Wang Zi lifted up the bags of sweets and chocolates.
“Yea!! Chocolates!! Thanks dad.”
“Ok. Let’s go.” The 3 of us headed back to the shop.
“Gui, I’m sorry that I’m unable to attend your wedding.”
“It’s ok.” I smiled at her. She looked at me.
“It’s really fine. You are pregnant that time. So don’t worry ok?”
“I’m not referring to the wedding already.” I looked at her.
“I’m fine.” I replied.
“Gui..”
“Let’s start working!” I avoid the topic immediately and walked away.

#33 The Proposal
Chapter Thirty Three: The Proposal
*Gui Gui’s POV*
Both of us took the plane and left Taiwan together.
“Gui, do you want to eat anything? Rice? Cakes?” Aaron asked me.
“Nope.” I smiled at him. Throughout the journey, I kept on staring at Aaron. I’m so afraid that if I shift my gaze away from him, he might leave me alone again.
Aaron turned around and smiled at me. “You have been looking at me since we boarded the plane. Won’t you get bored staring at me for so long?”
“Nope.” I smiled. He came over and hugs me. “I’m sorry Gui, for forgetting you. I’m sorry for leaving you alone.” I shook my head.
“I’m glad that you are back by my side again.”
After many hours of flight, we finally reached England.
“Dad, Mum.” Aaron hugged his dad and his mum.
“Auntie, Uncle.” I smiled at them.
“Welcome Gui.” Aaron’s dad said. Aaron’s mum smiled at me and gave me a hug.
“Rooms are already prepared for the both of you. Go and take a rest first.” I nodded and walked towards my room. After unpacking my things, I went to knock on Aaron’s room. Once he opened the door, I dashed up to him and hugged him tightly.
“What.. What happened? Are you ok?” Aaron started panicking by my actions. I lifted up my head and smiled at him.
“Silly Gui. You scared me.” He patted my head.
“Finish packing your things?” I asked.
“Yap.”
“Aaron.. Can we.. go walk around?” I smiled at him.
“You do not want to rest? Not tired?”
“Nope. Let’s go. I never have been to England before. Please??” I showed him my puppy eyes.
He let out a sigh. “Ok.” He smiled and held onto my hand.
“Both of you are going out?” Aaron’s dad asked.
“Ya. Gui said that she wants to go out.”
“Ok. Come back early. We have dinner together.”
“Ok!!” I happily agreed and both of us went out of the house. We travelled around the city.
“Aaron, Aaron! Let’s go and get some ice-cream.” I pulled him to the ice-cream shop.
“2 chocolate ice-cream. Thank you.” Aaron ordered. I happily lick the ice-cream and started walking. After walking a distance, I then realized I was all alone. Where’s Aaron? I dropped the ice-cream onto the floor and started looking around for him. I went back to the ice-cream shop to find him but he’s not there. I’m not familiar to this place. I looked around the place. Everyone looked so foreign to me. Tears started flowing out. Aaron.. I started calling his name in my heart. How could he leave me alone again?
“Gui?” I heard some familiar voice calling out to my name. I turned around and see Aaron standing in front of me. I dashed up to him and hugged him tightly.
“How could you leave without me??” My sobbing became louder.
“I’m sorry Gui. I went to get you this teddy bear when we walked past the soft toy shop.” He rose up his hand to show me the bear he is holding on to. “I’m sorry.” He wiped off my tears and hugged me tightly.
Both of us went back home after that. I hugged onto the bear tightly.
“Both of you really came back very early.” Aaron’s dad looked at me as I walked past him. “Gui?” He then looked at Aaron. “What happened to her?”
“Nothing, dad.” I go and looked at her.” Aaron then followed me back to my room.
“Gui..” He held onto my hand. I kept silence. He walked in front of me. I threw the teddy bear on the bed and hugged Aaron.
“Do you know how scared I am? I’m so scared that you might just leave me again. I..” Without completing my sentence, he forced a kiss on lips. He hugged me tightly and pull me closer to him.
~At night~
The 4 of us are sitting around the table taking our dinner. Aaron’s dad just popped out a question making the both of us unable to react.
“When are the both of you getting married? Gui, Did Aaron propose to you already?” I was shocked by his question. I looked at Aaron.
“Dad, why did you ask this now?” Aaron said.
“Aw.. My little son is being embarrassed now?”
“Dad!” Looking at Aaron’s expression, I giggled.
~After dinner~
Aaron and I stood at the balcony. He stood behind me, hugging me from the back.
“Gui..”
“Ya?”
“Let’s get married.”
“Huh?!” My eyes widen. I turned around and looked at him.
“Are you serious?” He gave me a peak lightly on my forehead.
“I’m serious.” He took out a box from his pocket and opened it in front of me.
“Will you want to be my wife?”
*Gui Gui’s POV*

#32 Forever?
Chapter Thirty Two: Forever?
*Aaron’s POV*
Gui, I remembered. I remembered. I kept on running around the area to look for her. She shouldn’t be too far away.
~Flashback 2~
I hook his arm and both of us stroll at the park. He stopped suddenly and turned to face me. He took down the couple necklace and handed over to me.
“Aaron??” He placed the necklace on my palm. “W..what is the meaning of this?”
“Gui, listen carefully to whatever I’m going to say now.” I looked at him.
“Keep this necklace for me. If I ever forget about you, please forgive me. If I ever leave you alone, please forget about me..”
“No. Aaron..” I started losing control. Tears are up to the brim and flowing down.
“I always wanted you to be happy. If I’m the one who steal your smile away from you, you should hate me.”
“I wouldn’t hate you because you are the one who gives me happiness and will always be.” I hugged him tightly.
“Gui..” He broke the hug. He grabbed onto my shoulder. “Gui, listen to me. Promise me even if I leave you, you will..”
“No No. I don’t want to listen to it!!” I covered up my eyes with my hands. “You said that you will never leave me. You said that I’m always yours. You said that you will always protect me. You cannot take back your words. Even if you forget about me, I will make you remember me but I don’t allow you to leave me alone!! If you are going to leave, then bring me along!” Tears kept on flowing and flowing. This is how important he is to me.
“I’m sorry.” And he pulled me into his arms. “I’m sorry.”
~End of Flashback~
When I saw her, she already gets on the taxi. I quickly went to get my car but once I drove out the taxi was out of sight. Where could she have gone to? Playground. Playground. I drove to the playground. I kept on searching and searching but I could not find her. Where is she?? I went home and started smashing things that I could see.
“Young Master, Young Master.” The maids wanted to stop me but no one dare to get close to me. Just then the phone ring.
“Young Master, Mistress is on the line.” I went to pick up the phone.
“When are you going to come here??!! I do not care whether is Gui Gui going to come with you. I demand you to take the flight tomorrow!!”
“Mum, but..”
“No more buts!!” And she put down the phone. I took bottle of beers out from the fridge and started drinking. Even till the next morning, Gui still have not come back home. I went up to my room and started packing my luggage. Just before I left the house, I walked into Gui’s room. I left her note for her and put one of the air tickets on the table with the note. I took a last look and left the house.
*Gui Gui’s POV*
I was staying over at Hebe’s house the whole night. I didn’t know where to go. In the end, I took the taxi to Hebe’s house. Only till the morning, I went back home. I didn’t see Aaron around so I went back to my room. I scanned the room and saw something on the table. I went over to take the note.
Gui,
I’m sorry if I made you cry again. I gain back my memories. I remembered how much I love you. I remembered the things that we gone through together.
My mum has been asking me to go back England. I’m leaving today. Gui, I love you. I know I always do.
Love
Aaron
Aaron. No. No. You are not going to leave me alone again. I looked at the air ticket. I quickly went to pack my luggage and headed to the airport.
*Aaron’s POV*
I looked around the airport. I guess she won’t be coming.
“Passengers who are taking flight…” Guess it’s time to go in. The moment I turned around, someone called me.
“Aaron!! Aaron!!” Gui ran up to me and hugged me.
“Are you going to leave me alone again? I thought you say the next time you will bring me along.” Gui looked up at me. I wiped off her tears. I hugged her tightly.
“I promised. I will not leave you alone again. I’m sorry.” I looked at her. I smiled and kissed her passionately.

#31 Re-act
Chapter Thirty One: Re-act
*Aaron’s POV*
“So silly of me. How could you remember?” She covered the box of ice-cream and put back into the fridge. She went to the dining room and started eating dinner.
~Flashback 1~
“What do you want to eat?”
“I want chocolate ice-cream.” After the ice-cream is being served, she started eating. She keeps on scooping the ice-cream into her mouth. After finishing, she asked for the second one. I thought it would be fine so I ordered the second one for her. But she ends up wanting more. She just kept on eating. Hebe tried to stop her by taking her ice-cream away but..
“Give me back.” I didn’t ever see like this before. She was always happy? Or was that only a type of mask to hide her true feelings?
“Gui..”
“I say give me back.” Hebe had no choice but to return her. Gui was so cold and silent at that moment.
“Gui, stop eating. You will get stomach upsets.”
~Flashback 2~
“Gui, do you want to eat something? You haven’t been eating anything since afternoon.” She didn’t reply me. “Gui..” She started crying again. I patted on her back with her hugging me tightly.
“Do you have chocolate ice-cream?” She finally said something. I nodded at her and went to take the ice-cream from the kitchen. The moment I passed it to her, she started scooping the ice-cream into her mouth. I somehow regretted saying I have chocolate ice-cream. “Gui, eat slowly.”
“Mum says so. Mum says so.” She started mumbling something while eating. “Mum says I would be happy if I eat. So I must eat.” I looked at her. I feel so heart pain seeing her like this. “Gui..” I held onto the hand where she is holding on to the spoon. She tried to loosen my grip. “I want to eat. I want to eat.” She started sobbing. “Aaron, I miss her. I miss her.” I hugged her.
“Gui, it’s ok. It’s ok.”
~End of Flashback~
I walked up to her. “Gui, I..”
“I’m tired. I’m going to sleep.” I walked up to her room. Just then..
“Young Master, Mistress is on the line.” I nodded at her and when to pick up the phone.
“Yes mum?”
“Aaron, we need you to come back again.”
“But mum, I can’t leave now.”
“Why? You can bring Gui Gui along this time. I will mail you the ticket in 2 days time. Come here immediately after you received the tickets.”
“But..” The line went off. How am I supposed to tell her??
She has not been talking to me these few days. I have been holding onto the tickets. I kept on pushing back the flight. Mum has been scolding me for that.
*Hebe’s POV*
“Calvin, we must make Aaron remember about Gui. These few days, Gui either send wrong delivery or she would wrapped up the wrong type of flowers that customers want.” I said.
“True. But what can we do?”
“I heard from Gui that they have been to this skating place. Maybe we could bring Aaron there.
“Ok.”
*Gui Gui’s POV*
“Hebe, where are we going??” Hebe closed the shop earlier than usual today.
“Han, we go off first. Bye.” Hebe said.
“Ok. Bye.” Han replied.
“Hebe, where are we going?”
“You will see.” What is she planning to do? When I reached the place..
“Why are we here? I’m going off.” I wanted to leave the place when Hebe held onto me. She nodded at me. I looked at the place and went inside with Hebe. The place was in complete darkness. Hebe pushed me into the skating ground. Suddenly a beam of light shone down and I saw Aaron standing in front of me. I walked up to him.
“Why are you here?” I asked.
“Calvin brought me here.”
“Why did you even say that??” Calvin’s voice appeared out of nowhere.
“Shh.. Keep quiet.” Hebe told him. I looked around but I can’t see them. It’s too dark. I looked at Aaron.
“Gui, I..”
“Do you remember here?” He looked around. I guess he doesn’t.
I walked up to the snow and started piling up 2 snowmen. After finishing, I stood up and stand where I was. I shouted from where I was standing.
“Aaron!” He looked at me.
I did the same thing as I did that day. I mouthed to him. “I – Love – You.” He doesn’t seem to have any reaction. I took a few steps back and ran out of the place.
“Gui!!” Hebe shouted and chase after me.
*Aaron’s POV*
“Aaron, what are you doing?” Calvin came up to me. My heart starts to hurt.
“Aaron, what’s happening to you?” My head..
~Flashback~
“Aaron, where are we going? You are not going to leave me alone right?”
“Nope. Just follow me.”
“Aaron? Aaron? Aaron? Where are you? Don’t scare me.”
“Aaron!!!!!!”
“I didn’t mean to.” She started tearing again.
“I thought you.. How could you leave me alone??!!” She started hitting my chest. I grabbed her hand and hugged her tightly.
“Sorry. I’m sorry.”
“Do you like this place?”.
“Yap! I love this place!!”
“This will be our second secret place ok?”
“I didn’t know that you skate.”
“Do you want to skate to?”
“I don’t know how to skate.”
“I can teach you.”
“Don’t let go of my hands ok??”
“Ok, silly.”
“Aahhhhhhhhhhh.”
“Not funny ok!” She pouted.
“Ok ok. Let’s skate slowly.”
“Aaron!!” I looked at her from far. She mouthed something which I can’t really see understand.
“Huh?” I shouted back. She started mouthing the words again, this time with a slower pace.
“I – Love – You.” And she smiled sweetly. I skated towards and hugged her tightly. Real tight this time.
“Aaron, I can’t breathe.” I then loosen my grip. She held her hand out and touched my face. She pushed my head a little lower. I looked at her with a lot of question marks above my head when she smiled at me. She lifted her head up and put her lips on mine. We had a long, passionate kiss.
“Aaron, I want to go and play the snow.”
“Aaron, Aaron. Are they cute??”
“Yes.”
“Does it look like you and me?” I looked at both snowmen.
“Which one are you which one is me?” She pointed to the snowman which is taller. “This is you and this is me.” And she pointed to the next snowman.
“Let’s take a photo with them.”
“This will be your wallpaper.”
“I also want.”
“I also put as wallpaper. Ta-da!!” She showed me the 2 wallpapers she put on mine and her phone.
~End of Flashback~
“Gui!!” I ran out of the place.
*Aaron’s POV*
“So silly of me. How could you remember?” She covered the box of ice-cream and put back into the fridge. She went to the dining room and started eating dinner.
~Flashback 1~
“What do you want to eat?”
“I want chocolate ice-cream.” After the ice-cream is being served, she started eating. She keeps on scooping the ice-cream into her mouth. After finishing, she asked for the second one. I thought it would be fine so I ordered the second one for her. But she ends up wanting more. She just kept on eating. Hebe tried to stop her by taking her ice-cream away but..
“Give me back.” I didn’t ever see like this before. She was always happy? Or was that only a type of mask to hide her true feelings?
“Gui..”
“I say give me back.” Hebe had no choice but to return her. Gui was so cold and silent at that moment.
“Gui, stop eating. You will get stomach upsets.”
~Flashback 2~
“Gui, do you want to eat something? You haven’t been eating anything since afternoon.” She didn’t reply me. “Gui..” She started crying again. I patted on her back with her hugging me tightly.
“Do you have chocolate ice-cream?” She finally said something. I nodded at her and went to take the ice-cream from the kitchen. The moment I passed it to her, she started scooping the ice-cream into her mouth. I somehow regretted saying I have chocolate ice-cream. “Gui, eat slowly.”

#30 Away
Chapter Thirty: Away
*Aaron’s POV*
“I really don’t remember. Is she really my girlfriend?” Calvin nodded.
“How could you forget about her? Isn’t she the one you care for most?”
When Calvin left, I started thinking of what he had said. The holes in my memories, Is she the one in my memory? Every now and then, she would always come and visit me but I did not mention a word to her about the wall paper. She might end up thinking that I remembered her which is not although I did have flashbacks here and there.
On the day I was discharged, she was here again.
“Aaron, ready to go?” She said.
“Where’s Calvin?”
“He’s downstairs waiting for us.” I nodded at her and walked out of the room.
“I help you with the bag.” She offered to take my stuffs but I rejected her.
“It’s ok. I can take it myself.”
“Oh ok.” She sounded disappointed. I turned around to look at her. I held onto her hand and led her behind me.
“Let’s walk faster. Don’t let Calvin wait for too long.”
*Gui Gui’s POV*
I was happy when he held onto my hand. Can I treat these as some hope in our relationship? Aaron, when will you remember me? Both of us headed to Calvin’s car.
“Eh! Eh!” Calvin looked at our hands which are holding on to each other. Aaron let go of my hand immediately.
“Let’s go.” And he went inside the car. Calvin looked at me. I didn’t say anything. I just smiled at him and went into the car.
When we reached home, Calvin went back to his company.
“You are living in my house?” Aaron asked.
“Yes.”
“Why are you living in my house?” I didn’t know how to answer him. He has forgotten what we have been through, didn’t he? I didn’t reply him. I really hope that he could remember me.
“I go and fix dinner for you.”
“The chef can do so isn’t it?” I ignored him and headed for the kitchen. While preparing the dinner, tears started flowing out.
“Gui..” Aaron walked into the kitchen. I immediately turned my back against him. I do not want him to know that I’m crying but nothing seems to be able to hide from him.
“I’m sorry. I know that you are my girlfriend but I pretended not to know. I know that I shouldn’t be forgetting about our past but I really can’t remember. I know that..” I stopped him from continuing. The more he says, the more pain my heart gets.
“I know. I understand. I will not think too much. I won’t give you any trouble. I..”
Tears kept on flowing out. I didn’t want to stay here anymore. I ran out of the kitchen and out of the house. I have lost count already. This is the Nth time that I ran away from him. He would not come after me this time.
*Aaron’s POV*
What am I doing? I didn’t know why but I started to panic and worried about her. I chased out of the house but she was already out of sight. Where could she have run to? I started driving around my house but I still couldn’t find her. I then realized, in the bottom of my heart, I did care for her. I would get affected my mood. I did hope for her to come and visit me when I’m at the hospital. What’s the matter with me? Rain started pouring down. Where could she have been to? I went back home after that. I couldn’t find her. I looked out of the window. Rain drops are hitting against the glass. I walked up the stairs and opened her room door. I walked inside. I saw a tatty bear and a piglet sitting side by side on her bed. Flashbacks started coming back and head started to hurt.
~Flashback 1~
“This is for you.”
“AH!!! It’s so cute.”
“Hi tatty bear. My name is Gui Gui. What’s yours?”
“Hey! What are you laughing at?”
“Nothing.” I started laughing and we went chasing each other around the room.
~Flashback 2~
“Aaron! Aaron! I want that piglet!”
“Let’s win it ok?”
“OK!!!” She hugged the piglet and ran all over the amusement park wanting to try of the games there.
~End of Flashback~
My memory was like a puzzle. Pieces of memory seem to come back to me one by one. Without realizing, I fall asleep on her bed. The next morning I woke up, I was covered with blanket. Did Gui come home? I ran out of the room immediately. I looked around the house but I couldn’t see her anywhere.
“Morning, Young Master.” A maid greeted me.
“Did you saw Gui?”
“I’m sorry Young Master. Ms Gui Gui didn’t come home yesterday after she ran out.” I went out looking for her again. I should be able to know where is she but.. I called Calvin and Hebe but they didn’t seem to know where she is. Hebe screamed into the phone.
“WHAT DID YOU DO AGAIN?? DID YOU MAKE HER SAD AGAIN?? YOU HAVE ALREADY FORGOTTEN ABOUT HER, WHY DO YOU STILL WANT TO MAKE HER CRY AGAIN??!!” I could hear Calvin’s voice at the back.
“Dear, calm down. Aaron don’t mean to.”
“Calvin and I will go look for her too. Let’s keep in contact.” I went on searching for her. I asked around but no one seems to see her. Just then, I saw some familiar figure walking pass. It’s her!
“Gui!” I shouted for her but she doesn’t seem to hear me. “GUI!!” I called for her again. I kept on running and running towards her direction. She seems so distracted. She kept on walking and walking. Even if she knocked onto people, she doesn’t even care. My eyes widen when she started crossing the road.
“Gui!! LOOK OUT!!!” I dashed up to her. Horns from the vehicles were everywhere across the streets. I pushed her away. Both of us fall to the side of the road.
“Gui, Gui. Are you ok? Huh?” I hugged her tightly.
“Let me go.” She pushed me away and walked away. I ran up to her and pulled her back.
“I said let me go!” She tried to swing off my hand. I pulled her into my arms.
“I’m sorry.” I whispered into her ears.
“Don’t say sorry to me. You are not the one at fault. I only can blame myself. I’m the one who asked you to go for the operation. I’m the one who told you to forget about me. I’m the one who said that I’m able to make me remember me. I’m the one.” Tears started rolling down her cheeks.
“Let me go.” She pushed me away and walked away. I stood there. My legs seem to be rooted to the ground. After a while, it’s my turn to walk around. I went back home at night. To my surprise, Gui was at home. I ran up to her but..
“I cooked dinner for you. Eat it while it’s still warm.” She said in a cold tone.
After bringing out all the dishes from the kitchen, she went back to her room.
“Aren’t you going to eat with me?” She shook her head. After 15 minutes, she walked down from her room. She went to open the fridge and took a box of chocolate ice-cream. She sat at the living room and started eating it.
“Gui, it’s bad for health eating ice-cream at night.”
“I know.” She replied.
“But why are you still eating it? There is still food on the table.” I wanted to take the ice-cream away from her but she wouldn’t let me.
“Don’t you remember why?”
“I..”
*Aaron’s POV*
“I really don’t remember. Is she really my girlfriend?” Calvin nodded.
“How could you forget about her? Isn’t she the one you care for most?”

#29 Broken Memories
Chapter Twenty Nine: Broken Memories
*Gui Gui’s POV*
The sun rose up and shone the empty house. Aaron.. I took a deep breath and hang a smile over my mouth. I walked into the kitchen and started cooking. I started packing lunch box for Aaron. I have already said to myself yesterday. I must be strong. I must make him remember me. After cooking, I packed the food nicely into the lunch box. I smiled to myself. I hope he would like it.
I grabbed my things and headed to the hospital. When I reached, I stood outside the room. Should I go in? Why am I backing out now? Go in! I turned the knob and walked in. He was awake, sitting on the bed reading newspaper.
“Morning Aaron!!” I smiled at him widely. But he frowned instead. “Why are you here?” He gave me a cold look. I was trembling when I saw that around his neck.
“Did you remember me??!!” I ran up to him. He was wearing the couple ring that I return him.
“What are you talking about?” I then realized that he did not remember who I am. One day past only anyway. He would not remember me just by one day.
“Oh. I thought the necklace..” He looked at the necklace over my neck and feel for his.
“I thought it was nice so I wore it. If it’s yours, I return to you then.” He wanted to take off the necklace.
“No. No. It’s yours anyway.” He looked up at me.
“It’s mine?” I nodded at him. Silence crept in between us. He then realized that I was still standing in his room.
“Are you going off soon?” He said.
“I..” I grabbed on tightly to the bag of lunch box. “I brought some food for you.” I put the bag on the table.
“I just ate.”
“Errr.. Erm.. I just put here first. If you are hungry, then you take it out and eat.” I smiled at him. He just nodded and didn’t bother. I didn’t know what to say after that. I stood there like some idiot.
“I think I better get going.” I said. He just nodded. I looked at Aaron for the last few seconds before walking out of the room. He still can’t remember..
Before leaving, I looked at him again from outside. To my surprise, I saw him taking out the lunch box.
*Aaron’s POV*
This morning, when my eyes flung opened, sun shone directly into my eyes. At the same time, I felt something poking my back. I sat up and stretched my hand behind to take the thing which was poking my back. It was the necklace. I looked at the curving once again. Does it mean anything? There was a sense of familiarity towards this necklace which was unexplainable. So, I took the necklace and wore it around my neck.
Just as I took the newspaper at the side and started reading it, the girl came into my room.
“Morning Aaron!!” She seems to be in a good mood?
“Why are you here?” Without replying my question, she ran up to me suddenly.
“Did you remember me??!!”
“What are you talking about?”
“Oh. I thought the necklace..” I looked at her neck. She did have one too.
“I thought it was nice so I wore it. If it’s yours, I return to you then.”
“No. No. It’s yours anyway.”
“It’s mine?” She just nodded. We didn’t talk after that. I just felt uncomfortable suddenly.
“Are you going off soon?” I said.
“I.. I brought some food for you.”
“I just ate.”
“Errr.. Erm.. I just put here first. If you are hungry, then you take it out and eat.” I did not respond her.
“I think I better get going.” I just nodded at her.
After she left, I looked at the bag on the table. I’m actually very hungry. I took out the lunch box and placed it on the table. This lunch box.. Did I see it before?? My head started to get hurt again.
~Flashback~
“Morning Aaron!! I made this breakfast for you. Hurry up and eat before it gets cold.”
“I’m not eating. I’m leaving.”
“Wait Wait. If you do not want to eat breakfast, it’s ok. I made a lunch box for you. Take it with you. I made it specially for you. I’m afraid that you will forget to eat lunch again so I..” I ignored her.
“Aaron, lunch box..”
“I didn’t ask you to make for me.”
~End of Flashback~
I flipped.. I flipped the lunch box away. Argh!! What are all these memories?? It seems so familiar but at the same time, it seems so foreign too. I opened the lunch box. The fragrant of the food filled the whole room. I took the spoon and started eating. The more I eat, the more I have this feeling which seems to be missing from my heart. Did I lose something important to me?
~At night~
Calvin came to see me.
“Hey brother, how are you feeling?”
“Great. I can be discharged soon.”
“I came to pass you your phone. In case anything happen, you can reach me or Gui Gui easily.”
“Gui.. Gui?” I said. He gave me a weird look.
“Ya. Gui Gui. Your girlfriend. The girl on the wall paper.” I looked at him and down to my phone. Is her.
“She’s…”
“She’s Gui Gui. Don’t you remember?” He was shocked too. Just then, Calvin’s phone rang.
“Hello? Yes, my dear?”
Just as he is talking on the phone, I looked the wall paper.
~Flashback~
“Aaron, Aaron. Are they cute??” Someone was piling up the snowmen.
“Yes.”
“Does it look like you and me?”
“Which one are you which one is me?” I said.
“This is you and this is me.”
“Let’s take a photo with them. This will be your wallpaper.”
~End of Flashback~
The flashback just stopped suddenly. I forced myself to continue thinking about it but I couldn’t get the images back.
“Aaron, are you ok?” Calvin asked when he put down the phone.
“Yea. I’m fine. Who was that?”
“Hebe.” And he smiled sweetly.
“Aaron?”
“Yea?”
“You really don’t remember who is Gui Gui?”
“I…”
*Gui Gui’s POV*
The sun rose up and shone the empty house. Aaron.. I took a deep breath and hang a smile over my mouth. I walked into the kitchen and started cooking. I started packing lunch box for Aaron. I have already said to myself yesterday. I must be strong. I must make him remember me. After cooking, I packed the food nicely into the lunch box. I smiled to myself. I hope he would like it.
I grabbed my things and headed to the hospital. When I reached, I stood outside the room. Should I go in? Why am I backing out now? Go in! I turned the knob and walked in. He was awake, sitting on the bed reading newspaper.
“Morning Aaron!!” I smiled at him widely. But he frowned instead. “Why are you here?” He gave me a cold look. I was trembling when I saw that around his neck.
“Did you remember me??!!” I ran up to him. He was wearing the couple ring that I return him.
“What are you talking about?” I then realized that he did not remember who I am. One day past only anyway. He would not remember me just by one day.
“Oh. I thought the necklace..” He looked at the necklace over my neck and feel for his.
“I thought it was nice so I wore it. If it’s yours, I return to you then.” He wanted to take off the necklace.
“No. No. It’s yours anyway.” He looked up at me.
“It’s mine?” I nodded at him. Silence crept in between us. He then realized that I was still standing in his room.
“Are you going off soon?” He said.
“I..” I grabbed on tightly to the bag of lunch box. “I brought some food for you.” I put the bag on the table.
“I just ate.”
“Errr.. Erm.. I just put here first. If you are hungry, then you take it out and eat.” I smiled at him. He just nodded and didn’t bother. I didn’t know what to say after that. I stood there like some idiot.
“I think I better get going.” I said. He just nodded. I looked at Aaron for the last few seconds before walking out of the room. He still can’t remember..
Before leaving, I looked at him again from outside. To my surprise, I saw him taking out the lunch box.
*Aaron’s POV*
This morning, when my eyes flung opened, sun shone directly into my eyes. At the same time, I felt something poking my back. I sat up and stretched my hand behind to take the thing which was poking my back. It was the necklace. I looked at the curving once again. Does it mean anything? There was a sense of familiarity towards this necklace which was unexplainable. So, I took the necklace and wore it around my neck.
Just as I took the newspaper at the side and started reading it, the girl came into my room.
“Morning Aaron!!” She seems to be in a good mood?
“Why are you here?” Without replying my question, she ran up to me suddenly.
“Did you remember me??!!”
“What are you talking about?”
“Oh. I thought the necklace..” I looked at her neck. She did have one too.
“I thought it was nice so I wore it. If it’s yours, I return to you then.”
“No. No. It’s yours anyway.”
“It’s mine?” She just nodded. We didn’t talk after that. I just felt uncomfortable suddenly.
“Are you going off soon?” I said.
“I.. I brought some food for you.”
“I just ate.”
“Errr.. Erm.. I just put here first. If you are hungry, then you take it out and eat.” I did not respond her.
“I think I better get going.” I just nodded at her.
After she left, I looked at the bag on the table. I’m actually very hungry. I took out the lunch box and placed it on the table. This lunch box.. Did I see it before?? My head started to get hurt again.
~Flashback~
“Morning Aaron!! I made this breakfast for you. Hurry up and eat before it gets cold.”
“I’m not eating. I’m leaving.”
“Wait Wait. If you do not want to eat breakfast, it’s ok. I made a lunch box for you. Take it with you. I made it specially for you. I’m afraid that you will forget to eat lunch again so I..” I ignored her.
“Aaron, lunch box..”
“I didn’t ask you to make for me.”
~End of Flashback~
I flipped.. I flipped the lunch box away. Argh!! What are all these memories?? It seems so familiar but at the same time, it seems so foreign too. I opened the lunch box. The fragrant of the food filled the whole room. I took the spoon and started eating. The more I eat, the more I have this feeling which seems to be missing from my heart. Did I lose something important to me?
~At night~
Calvin came to see me.
“Hey brother, how are you feeling?”
“Great. I can be discharged soon.”
“I came to pass you your phone. In case anything happen, you can reach me or Gui Gui easily.”
“Gui.. Gui?” I said. He gave me a weird look.
