She got up but her head felt head, something flashed in her mind it was a memory. But it wasn't clear, she closed her eyes trying to focus but all in vain. Images kept appearing with voices that made her head hurt more.
She cried in pain as a feeling of fear swept over her body.
"C..Chris " she called.
His arms embraced her, "I Am here, love" Chris's voice whispered in her ear.
"I don't know what's happening to me " she cried.
He held Camilla as he tried to calm her down.
Ray was just getting home when his phone rang.
"What do you want at this hour?" he asked.
It was Chris who had called. He told Ray about what happened.
" How is she now?"
" Sleeping, she was stressed out "
"It's your fault for being so careless ".
Chris remembered what Camilla had said.
" Was I pregnant? but I don't remember anything about it " she had cried.
"If she's like that now then anytime Camilla will find out," said Ray.
"I will handle it, just call her parents and tell them about what she has remembered," he said.
"And the video, what else does it show?" asked Ray.
The video showed Camilla crying as she begged to save her baby as she was being taken into operation.
Her mother arrived with another woman & Chris felt his body get cold, it was his mother.
The doctor turned to the parents, Camilla's father nodded to what he said but the two women disagreed as he was pushed away.
"No, we don't want it " they both said.
It was evident that they were talking about the baby. Chris felt his heart sink as he finally realised why Camilla had been devastated. Cause if she had watched that, then it would make her even more confused.
"Well if your mother caused the accident, then why did her mother side with her to kill an innocent baby?" Ray asked.
"I don't have the answer to that but maybe we will when her mother finds out Camilla knows the truth about that day " explained Chris.
"Okay, let's wait and see "
Chris returned to the bed to find Camilla awake. She was unconsciously caressing her abdomen. He frowned.
"Milla " he called her.
She turned to him, "What does it all mean?" she asked.
He moved closer to her on the bed. Holding her hand.
"You know something bad happened to you in the past?" he said.
She nodded, "The bad accident that almost killed me "
"Yes, and on that day you lost more than just your memories.." he hesitated but Camilla urged him.
" Say it, what else did I lose?" her eyes had teared like his but she held them back.
"Our baby was lost too," he said.
"And? " she was crying now.
Chris wiped away her tears as his started to fall.
"And it's like our baby had survived the accident but both your mother and mine told the doctor to abort it " he cried.
She was sobbing now, Camilla put a hand on her mouth to stop her crying but failed. Her heart ached and her eyes just kept tearing up.
She moved away, "But that's impossible, my mother can't do that and why would your mother kill my baby?" she cried.
Chris got up, "Camilla it was our baby and I guess mom thought maybe you would use the baby to tie me down "
"But..But.. I just met you. Then how come I was pregnant with your baby and your mother " she cried confused.
"Milla, let me explain " Chris was now holding her.
She was trembling, he noticed the fear and confusion in her eyes.
He hugged her, leading her back to the bed.
When she calmed down he told her about their past and how she ended up not remembering anything.
"I didn't know I had lost the chance of being a father till your mother told me," Chris said.
"So the grave that I have been visiting every year with my parents thinking it was my brother, was for our baby? she asked.
He nodded, " she told me that day "
"That's why you returned drunk that day," she said.
"Your parents took the chance of you for getting me and the accident to create a new life for you," he told her.
"Buts it was never enough. There were times I felt so empty that I ended up crying" she said.
"I visited a lot but was always turned down. Ray helped me a lot during that time. He told me how you were"
Camilla sighed, "So you have been watching me all this time?"
He nodded. "Became your stalker" he laughed through his tears.
"I thought I was crazy after we met, cause all I kept thinking about was you " She smiled.
"But I remember someone whacking me hard in the face " Camilla faced blushed.
She pulled Chris closer and kissed him, "Am sorry about that, I can't control my reflexes when angry "
"I know, it wasn't my first being hit by you. But it's sad cause I was the one who taught you how to hit that hard " he laughed.
"What? now your lying "
