Chapter 3
BERMUDA
Now why did you and do a stupid thing like that? Antonio a.k.a. "Brian" Lopez-Fitzgerald asked himself once he hung up the phone. The moment the conversation ended with his mother, the regrets started pouring out. It was not that he wasn't happy that he spoke with his mother, on the contrary, hearing the sound of her voice made him feel as if all the years he had been gone was just a dream.
"Brian....."
At the sound of his name being called, Brian's frown turned upside down. The sound of his name flowing from her sweet voice made Brain feel warm all over. Brian turned and looked at the source of the interruption.
"Yes Diana?" Brian asked.
As Brian listened to her sweet voice talking about and reminding him of last minute details of the upcoming wedding, Brian couldn't help but reflect on his good fortune.
Who knew that a year ago when he went fishing that he would literally 'catch' the women of his dreams. He remembered that day so vividly, it was a day that would live in his life as the beginning of his life. Before that day, Brian lived for the moment, having not a care in the world, nor was there any wanting to think about the future. When Diana was 'caught' in his net, all that changed. Brian always mocked at the term "love at first sight", now, however, he now couldn't deny that one can love at first sight. It had happened to him.
In the first few days, it seemed that she would not survive, being that she suffered from a strong case of hyperthermia, however, with the grace of god and a lot of good 'doctoring' from Doc, she survived and awaken.
Brian remembered the exact moment she woke up, when he stared into her deep shinning blue eyes and fell even deeper in love, if that was possible. When it was found out that she did not 'remember' anything, Brian had secretly celebrated because that meant that she wasn't going to jump ship and leave him. As the weeks went by and 'Diana' as she would call herself, got stronger, she began to remember bits and pieces.
When Diana remarked that she remembered a 'great'love, Brian's heart once again jumped. He feared that eventually Diane would leave him and return to this man. As a result, you could imagine the joy he found in hearing that the 'man' was dead and would never return to claim her.
A part of Brian felt bad that Diana couldn't remember her past, however, another part, the selfish one, secretly celebrated Diana's anesmic state. The benefits of an anesmic Diana was greater than that of a Diana who had her memories. While still suffering from amnesia, Diana's dependance on Brian was clearly obvious, and one that he relished in.
"Earth to Brian....." Diane said jokingly. "Are you alright?" she asked with a little bit of concern.
"Ah...nothing....at all..... I am just a bit distracted is all" Brian answered.
"So you remembered everything right?"
"Don't worry...everything will be perfect" Brian reassured Diana for the uptenth time.
