Love The Psycho

Chapter 7: I can't let you be with someone else...call me a selfish bitch.

''I can call Josh right now and let him know you are hiding a precious jewellery. Oh, right! Do the police know? That you not only refused to report an accident case but you have kept the victim in the hospital for five years without anyone's knowledge? Or, does your grandfather know about her? I bet a lot of people will be curious to know about her existence''.

Aaron Saint saw Morris moving towards Liyah and signalled him to stop and spoke ''Morris, go and get the paperwork done. I will return soon''. Liyah Myers smiled triumphantly.

KASH FAMILY HOSPITAL CAF.

Liyah stared at Aaron with a gentle loving gaze as she sipped her coffee. Aaron looked at his watch impatiently and spoke ''say it, whatever you want to. I'm busy''.

Liyah Myers smiled at him ''you seem rather impatient Aaron. Why?''

''Is that a question you really want to ask me? Liyah, don't think you managed to threaten me just because I came out with you. Josh, my grandfather or my enemies. I don't care about them. Even if they find out about August. You know why? Because, anyone who dares to mess with what's mine will have to face the consequences of their actions''.

Liyah Myers noticed the coldness in Aaron Saint's voice.

''This is the first time we are meeting in alone in five years and you've become so distant. Aaron Saint, can I interpret your behaviour as you still been not over me yet?''

''You have so much confidence in yourself. Well, if it makes you feel less guilty about what you did, then, go ahead and think whatever you want. After all, I can't force you not to think otherwise''.

''Aaron, call me a selfish bitch but, I can't let anyone else have you. You're too good for that girl. What did she do to deserve all the attention you gave her these five years? After I found out about how you've changed just because of that girl, I couldn't believe it''.

''You must really have nothing doing. That's why you have time to keep tabs on me. Go back and live with Josh, he is the one you chose. If there is nothing else, then, I will go now. And listen, I will let this go for old times' sake. If you ever investigate me, you won't get away with it, Liyah Myers''.

Liyah Myers watched with a conflicted gaze as Aaron walked out of the caf.

WARD 003.

August Maijune looked at Morris packing her bag and spoke ''when is Saint coming?''.

Morris ignored her and put the last piece of sweater in the bag ''why don't you ever speak to me? Did I do something wrong to you?''

Morris turned to face August Maijune and spoke ''you haven't done anything to me, but, I would like you to please remember who you are so that my boss will not be so burdened''.

August Maijune looked at him feeling hurt. She opened her mouth to speak and Aaron Saint walked in and she stopped.

Aaron Saint smiled at August Maijune and spoke ''ready to go home?'' August Maijune glared at Morris and turned to Aaron smiling ''yes, I'm tired of being here anyway''.

Morris walked out with the bag leaving August Maijune and Aaron Saint alone. Aaron Saint noticed August Maijune starring at him and asked ''why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?''.

August Maijune shook her head and replied ''no, you don't have anything on your face, but, you smell different. I can smell a woman's fragrance on you. Which woman did you hug?'' Aaron Saint looked at her clearly taken aback by her discovery. It then dawned on him that Liyah Myers intentional brushed through him in front of the hospital but, that was 15 minutes ago. How could August Maijune still smell such a fragrance on him?

August Maijune scratched her head lightly and spoke as she walked out ''you don't have to tell me if you don't want to. I was just asking''.

Aaron Saint held her hand just as she got to the door ''how did you know about the scent?'' August Maijune looked at him feeling confused because even she didn't know how she found that out. She just blurted out something subconsciously without realising it.

August Maijune smiled ''I don't know; I don't know how I found that out. Let's go now, I'm tired''.

EDEN ESTATES.

SAINT VILLA.

August changed into slippers quickly and entered the hall. She stared at the interior design with marvel. August ran to the sofa and bounced on them happily like a kid. She turned to look at Aaron and said.

"Is this really where I will be staying with you? This place must cost a lot. Do you really have lots of money?''

Aaron went to sit across her and spoke

''I have a lot more than you can imagine''

''Then, will I get to eat pork everyday as long as I am here?'' Aaron looked at her totally surprised by her statement.

''Is meat the only thing you can think off?''

''Mmm. I don't know why but after waking up I'm suddenly craving meat. Was I denied of meat in my past life?''.

Aaron shook his head and stood up.

''Come with me, I will show you to your room''.

''Yes, okay!!''.

AUGUST'S ROOM.

Aaron opened the door and beckoned on August to go in first. August enter the room and saw all the things in the room and opened her mouth wide in shock.

She looked at the queen sized bed and the vanity table beside it with a lamp bulb. She went and touched the curtains and picked up the big purple pig-like doll and turned to Aaron.

''Saint, what is this?''

Aaron smirked and replied ''what do you think? You like pork so much I thought it might as well be your favourite animal so I bought it for you''

August threw the doll at him and said ''you are such a psycho. What am I going to do with a pig doll? Do you want me to get nightmares or wake up in the middle of the night craving meat? And what's with the purple everywhere?''

''Didn't you say purple was your favourite colour? I decided to make the room all purple for you. Aren't I a wonderful guardian?''

''You're but, if you keep doing all this for me I might just fall for you''.

''Didn't you fall for me already? You said my body and face was totally your type?''

''Oo, I remember saying that but, that was because of the sedative the doctor gave me''.

Aaron looked at August feeling a bit sad about her words. August unbeknownst to Aaron's feelings walked towards the bathroom and spoke ''I want to wash up''

Aaron Saint nodded her head.

''I will be downstairs then''.

''Okay''. Aaron went out and August entered the bathroom.

NEXT DAY.

EDEN ESTATES

SAINT VILLA.

AUGUST'S ROOM.

An identity is something that gives one a sense of belongingness. Having no identity is something that could make one feel lost. When people know who they are, what they do and remember every detail about themselves, it makes life easier to navigate through.

Someone said 'know thyself and ye shall know thy enemy'.

August Maijune couldn't agree any less with that saying. That was why even as she stood naked in front of the giant sized mirror in the room. She scanned her body with a conflicted gaze.

Ever since she woke up, she couldn't remember anything about herself. Other than the fact that her name is August Maijune, she had no idea who she was.

Looking at the knife shaped scar on her left breast, August felt lost and somewhat insecure. The feeling of helplessness was foreign to her and she had no idea how to deal with the rising emotions in her.

Thinking about how she was in coma all those five years, August wondered how her life would have been if she hadn't gotten into that accident; what kind of life she would be living and what kind of people she would have surrounded herself with.

Aaron Saint was now the only person she knew and though she knew that she was safe with him, a part of her still wondered about the kind of person she was before the accident.

August looked at herself in the mirror and used her hand to trace the scar on her left breast. 'This scar was definitely not common' August thought.

A knock on the door brought August back to her senses but before she could react or say anything the knob of the door had be held and pushed opened by Aaron Saint

Aaron stood frozen on spot as he looked at the naked body of the girl in front of him. August also seemed to be out of her mind as she stood there without any covering on her body. Aaron suddenly shook his head and quickly closed the door. August then screamed and rushed into the closet to wear something.
