14 Start Over

It's been several days later, Juliette was still asleep from the shock she received.

"She's must've remembered something unpleasant." Peter said.

"The doctor said she should be awake soon."

Darien looked at Juliette while Timothy played on the other side of the room.

"Sir, you should rest for now. I'll watch over Juliette." Peter offered but Darien shook his head.

"I want to be with her. I don't want to leave her again." Darien took Juliette's hand and sighed.

"Darien, should we call her mother?" Peter asked. Darien shook his head.

"Her mom will be worried sick. Just tell her Juliette isn't feeling well and she's just taking a leave. Tell her not to worry, I'm taking care of her right now." Peter nodded.

Timothy finished playing as he climbed on the bed beside Juliette.

"Mommy... please wake up. I'll be good. I'll listen to you and daddy. Mommy, I missed you." Timothy kissed Juliette's cheeks and said, "Daddy really missed you. He haven't slept for a long time. Please wake up, mommy!"

-----

After few days....

"Daddy, why mommy isn't waking up yet?" Timothy tugged on Darien's shirt.

As the doctor came in and he said, "Everything is fine. It's only up to the patient whether she wants to wake up or not. Everything is normal." Darien thanked the doctor and bowed.

As Juliette's eyes slowly opened after few hours she was alone in the room.

"Where am I?" As she looked around, she saw Darien's photos.

"Those were our memories together." Juliette smiled because she remembered she was Clara and they were in a relationship.

"Why I can't remember that time?" The memories got fuzzier and she felt lightheaded.

"How long was I out?" Juliette tried to get up but failed.

Juliette felt tired as she heard the door opened.

"Darien?"

"Juliette? Are you awake?" Peter came in and quickly went to Juliette's side.

"Where is Darien?" Juliette asked.

"He's coming back soon. He had something urgent in the office. Do you want me to call him?" Juliette shook her head.

"Please let him know I'll be okay." Peter nodded.

"I'll let him know you woke up after he comes back." Juliette smiled.

"I would like to sleep a bit more." Juliette's eyelid felt heavy and fell asleep quickly.

-----

"Sir, Juliette woke up few hours ago when you were out. She didn't want to disturb you. She might still be asleep." Peter told Darien.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Darien ran into Juliette's room and was surprised.

"Juliette....You're awake?" Darien quickly went to Juliette's side and hugged her.

"Darien." Juliette held onto Darien.

"I was scared." Juliette started to cry. Darien held onto her and didn't let go.

"Don't cry. I'm here." He hugged her and kissed her forehead, "Clara, you're back." Juliette nodded and slightly smiled.

"Darien, you knew I was Clara?" Daniel nodded. His hands gently touched Clara's face and hugged her again.

"I'll never leave you again. I'll call you Clara from now on." Juliette smiled, "Anything is fine. I have two names now."

"Darien, I want to go outside. Can I see Timothy?" Darien nodded and carefully helped Juliette up. He supported Juliette and carefully led her to the huge living room.

"Mommy! I knew you were going wake up!" Timothy ran to Juliette and tightly hugged her.

"You must've been shocked, Timothy. I am sorry I worried you." Juliette smiled at Timothy and hugged him.

"Mommy is sorry." Timothy shook his head.

"Daddy was so worried about you. He haven't slept greatly. You should sleep with him tonight." Juliette laughed and looked at Darien and he smiled.

"Mommy and I will sleep together. Don't worry." Darien played with Tim's hair.

"Mommy, since you woke up. Can I ask you something?" Juliette nodded.

"I want a little brother or sister. It's too lonely to play alone." Tim hugged Juliette.

"You want to be a big brother?" Juliette smiled. Tim nodded.

"Daddy and I will think about it." Juliette said and looked at Darien. Darien surprised Juliette and kissed her.

"Clara, let's do it tonight." Juliette shifted over.

"Later. Tim is here." Timothy giggled and covered his eyes.

"Darien. I just woke up. Isn't it too early?" Daniel shook his head.

"I've been waiting for this moment." Daniel kissed Juliette deeply.

"Darien. It's good I'm back now. We can finally stay together." Darien nodded.

"You're back, Clara." Juliette and Daniel kissed over and over again.

------

Few months passed, one afternoon, Juliette sat outside in the garden. The cool breeze brushed over her. Darien walked over and kissed her.

"What are you doing here?" Darien smiled and said, "To see my beautiful fiancée."

"Darien. I'm so lucky to have you again." Juliette embraced Darien.

"Clara, don't leave me ever again." Daniel kissed Clara again.

Once Clara head into the house, she suddenly felt lightheaded and felt nauseous. She ran to the bathroom. Darien was worried and came in.

"Are you okay? Do you need to visit the hospital?" Clara shook her head.

"Darien, I forgot to tell you. I am two months pregnant. I went to the doctor few days ago." Darien had the biggest smile on his face.

"Clara, I'm so lucky to have you. Did you tell Timothy?" Juliette nodded and embraced Darien.

"We can start over again." Darien nodded and did not let Clara go for another hour or so.
