"Let's go home." Gabriel said as she took her hand and a body guard open the back seat door of a sedan. Just how rich is this guy?

Inside was secured and she notice the thickness of the window s.h.i.+eld. The sedan was made to be bullet proof. The seat was comfortable and has pillows. She lean on it and Gabriel made sure she is comfortable. Although he sleep beside her every night—she still feel awkward and uncomfortable. She talk less and he did too. He look scary whenever he's serious.

"Are you hungry?" He asked as he gave her a tumbler that he took from the mini freezer. He open the cap of the tumbler. "Finish that."

"I haven't answered." She said.

"Don't be stubborn. Two months ago was the last time you prove stubborn." He said.

"Are you—angry at me? Did I run off with someone else?"

Gabriel chuckle and told her to drink it.

"It's impossible that you will run away from me. I am the best you ever had. No man can compare to me."

"You sound very boastful."

"I am not. I am just stating facts here, darling."

She mutter 'whatever' and sipped on the smoothie. Gabriel look at her trying to figure out her odd att.i.tude. She was always like that, right/ She mutter something and sneer at them when men gets boastful.

"I never see this adorable side of you." He pats her head. "It's a good thing. I could see how you behave during your teen age."

"What are you talking about?"

"My love, you are always adorable. But being naïve, innocent and this kind of childish att.i.tude of yours makes me aroused." He said s.e.xily as he scoop her chin. She flushes and her eyes dilated from his words. She couldn't dodge him. He had corner her. "But I have to hold myself since you just recovered. Do you want to visit Veronica?"

"Uhm… Veronica is your best friend."

"I never had a best friend before."

"I could say that she was one of your best friend. She is loyal to you and though both of you seemed apart from each other's status—she remained a best friend to you."

"Really?"

"She's dying. But we haven't stop looking for the cure."

"How is she dying?" She asked. Her heart suddenly feel uneasy.

"I don't want you to remember your dark past." He said. Their conversation ended and they went to a hospital. It was wide and secluded. Has lot of security and everyone who pa.s.s by salutes them.

"Why are they—"

"You own EPUA." He said and hold her hand firmly. "I took over after the ambush just few days ago."

"Hmm."

They enter the secured door and saw a woman in pale face with dark circles under her eyes and a man tall, lean and like a greek G.o.d holding onto the woman's hand.

"Brina!" Tony said surprise.

"Sabrina…" She crease her brows when the woman speak in hoa.r.s.e voice. It is somehow familiar like she heard it somewhere.

"Come on, talk to her." He said. "She knows that you didn't remember what happened." She step a little.

"Uhh, h.e.l.lo." She said. Then Veronica chuckle.

"When you are ready to accept your memories back, you have to remember this, I failed you, Sabrina. I let Francisco go. Glenn was the one who did this to me through Francisco's orders. Please don't let them getaway."

A sudden flash of memory suddenly makes her nausea. She hold onto the bed and Gabriel hold her.

"You don't have to see me again. I don't want you to see me in this condition."
