EJ checked in the nearest hotel. He was anxious to get showered and on his way, To Aidan's practice. EJ opened the hotel room door. He sighed something didn't feel right. He felt like something was
wrong. He shook off the feeling and tried to focus on seeing Samantha, He undressed and jumped in the shower, the water was steaming hot as it relaxed his tense muscles. He was extremely nervous.
He closed his eyes and decided to focus on good memories. He smiled as he saw memories of Samantha with the children and him at family outing. All of them were together including Will .It was a
wonderful memory. Ej began to tear. He would have that again. He would reunite his family. His children wouldn't be without their mother anymore. Ej shut the water off and he heard his phone ringing.
He grabbed a towel and ran to pick up the phone. "Hello." He answered Henry stuttered "Mr. DiMera its Henry. " EJ sighed, "Henry, I went to the apartment she wasn't there. Do you know where she
is?" EJ was anxious. Henry answered quickly "No Mr. DiMera she's probably with the Doc." EJ nodded "Okay I will go see the good doctor. You stay near your phone and wait for my call. This deal
doesn't work if I don't find her. Do you understand Henry?" Ej demanded Henry was nervous "Of course Mr. DiMera I understand." Henry hung up quickly because there was something Henry was hiding.
He didn't tell EJ that even if he found her she would have no memory of him. He decided he wanted to live a little longer. He knew when he found out all hell would break loose.
EJ got dressed he decided casual attire was key today. He wanted to blend in with the locals. He didn't want the good doctor to see him coming. EJ looked in the mirror. He didn't realize how thinner he
got. His whole world crashed when Samantha was gone. He had no interest in food only drinking his pain away.
Today that would all change. He headed out and got in his car that he rented and headed to good doctor's office. EJ hated saying his name why should he since he was about to be a faded memory once
he was reunited with Samantha. Ej had high hopes things would go his way today.
Dr. Sterling laid Santini on his sofa as he out smelling salts under her nose. Santini shook awake. She panicked "Where am I?" she asked Dr. Sterling watched her concerned. "Santini are you okay? You
collapsed when you came to my office. Do you remember getting here?" He asked Santini was holding her head wincing in pain.
"Yes I remember but this pain is awful. It just came on all of sudden. Ad I had two memories. Doc I had a son and according to my memory Ej was yelling at me for killing my son." Dr. Sterling listened
carefully. "Do you remember anything else?"
She closed her eyes. "I remembered EJ & I having romantic dinner at home. Then it flashed to him and I fighting over our son. Could this be why he wanted me dead" she cried hysterically. Dr. Sterling
then said. "Santini memories are a funny thing they sometimes don't come in order and can be jumbled up. It sounds like they were both different times and not necessarily in order. I think we should
get a scan of your head and se if there's any swelling. It could be the reason why you're having pain. I already called the hospital so they are expecting us. So lets get you there. Do you feel well
enough to stand up?" She nodded "Yes I can try." Dr. Sterling said, "Lean on me. We will go in my car. " He rushed her to the hospital there was an orderly waiting outside for them with a wheelchair.
"Take her upstairs to radiology they are expecting her. " He bent down and looked at Santini "I will be up there shortly. I want to check on those results with Dr. Siegel okay? She nodded relieved
someone was with her. The orderly took her upstairs. Her head was still pounding. She wanted to call Aidan but it would have to wait. She wanted more answers.
The orderly took her upstairs and asked her to get undressed and put on the gown.
She lay in the machine as she heard the noise of the rattling of the pictures being taken of her head. She was doing so good why was this pain coming all of a sudden.
She was going to find out today. She would have some answers. Dr, Sterling was talking to Dr. Siegel and the conversation wasn't good. The results came back and
It confirmed Dr. Sterling's feeling Santini had high levels of the drug called Metyrapone in her system. With these high levels it means that someone was still giving her the drug on a regular basis
possibly in her food or drink. Dr. Siegel was sure of it. Dr. Sterling shook his head "So that means someone she knew was still poisoning her. They both looked at each other. "Who could have done that
to her. Everyone adores Santini?" Both doctors were baffled at this latest mystery.
"Well we are going to have to keep her overnight and see if we can flush it out her system. I think whoever was giving it to her hadn't seen her in a few days. That's why her body is withdrawing from
it. We have to treat her for the pain. Do you want me to tell her?" Dr. Sterling asked
Dr. Siegel responded "I think we should both tell her because she's going to need therapy when she finds out someone close to her was giving her the drug. " They both nodded as they headed to
Santini's hospital room.
EJ walked in the office and looked around. It was a thriving practice Ej was impressed. The waiting room was filled with patients. He walked up to the receptionist and gave his name. I have an
appointment with the doctor. The receptionist nodded and informed the doctor his new patient was here. The doctor said "I will be with him in a few minutes."
Aidan was still worried about Santini but he remained focus on the patient in front him. "Okay well if you problem with the medications please let me know and we will adjust the dosage." The man
nodded as he left the office. "Have a good day." Aidan said
Aidan came into the waiting area and called out "Mr. Elvis DiMera." as he grabbed the chart. Ej got up and walked towards Aidan he put his hand out to shake it. Aidan responded they shook hands "Nice
to meet you Mr. DiMera." Aidan guided him into the exam room. "So Mr. DiMera
How can I help you? It looks like a quite a ways from home. It says here you're suffering from chest pain." EJ smiled and nodded "Yes I'm suffering from a broken heart. You see I thought I lost
someone but I found out she's alive." Aidan was intrigued "Really so you're experiencing chest pains still?" Ej realized this man had no idea who he was. EJ then got up from the table and walked
towards Aidan. "Yes you can help me. You can tell me where she is?" EJ went into his coat for his wallet and pulled out the wallet size picture of he and Samantha and all the children. EJ showed Aidan
the picture. "You see I'm looking for her and I happen to know you know where she is." Aidan stood up and asked, "Are you really Elvis DiMera?" EJ nodded "Yes I'm Elvis DiMera Jr.
My family and friends call me EJ. " Aidan's face went pale. EJ watched his rival's face. "I see you know who I am. Then you know who I am to Samantha?" EJ said smugly. Aidan shook his head "I know
your name but I don't know who you are to her." Ej looked puzzled. Then the receptionist spoke over intercom. "Dr. James you have an urgent call from Dr. Sterling he says its important. He looked at
EJ annoyed he was interrupted from this conversation. Aidan gestured to wait "Let me just take this call and I will be right with you." EJ rolled his eyes "Fine I will wait." Aidan picked up the phone
"Richard I'm with a patient what's going on?" Aidan listened as Dr. Sterling told him what happened with Santini and that was she was being admitted. Aidan's face dropped Ej watched him carefully.
Aidan sat down in his chair. "Is she okay Richard?" His voice cracked EJ knew something was wrong. Aidan proceeded "I will be right there as soon as I can. Is she with you? Can I speak to her? Santini,
Richard told me what happened. Are you okay sweetheart?" EJ realized he was talking to Samantha. Aidan continued
"I will be there as soon as I can okay. Richard is going to stay with you until I get there. You rest he's going to give you something for the pain."
Aidan put the phone down slowly and put his head in his hands. EJ became concerned "Was that about Samantha?" Aidan nodded
EJ's eyes were widened with fear. "What happened man?" Aidan began to explain, "Santini was having a flashback and her head started to hurt and when she was on the way to her therapists office she
collapsed." EJ had to use the exam table to keep him standing up.
Aidan said, "You called her Samantha. We call her Santini that's what she named herself when she woke up from the accident that your lover caused. " EJ was puzzled what this man was talking about.
"I don't know what you're talking about Dr. James. I have no lover Samantha is the love of my life. " Aidan glared at him "Really and why did Nicole tried to kill her. It wasn't because she liked you. It
was so she could get rid of Santini or Samantha as you call her. She remembered the other day that Nicole injected her with a syringe with a drug. They just found that drug in some test they ran." EJ
shook his head in disbelief now he knew why Nicole ran from him. EJ was angry "Why in the bloody hell are you calling her Santini when her name is Samantha?" Aidan yelled back "That's because when
she woke up thanks to Nicole she had no memory of who she was or her past life." EJ's blood turned cold and he started to shake. "You mean to tell me she has no memory of who she is?" Aidan
realized EJ was surprised at his words and that he couldn't have had anything to do with Nicole's plan. Aidan nodded "Yes she has no memory of anything. EJ put his face in his hands and began to sob.
"My poor Samantha. Now everything makes sense why she didn't try to come back home." He walked towards Aidan. "I have to see her he demanded. Aidan shook his head "She's scared of you she
thinks you and Nicole were trying to kill her." EJ looked puzzled "How could she think that if she doesn't remember?" Aidan said she had a flashback she remembered what Nicole did to her and she
remembered walking in on you and Nicole. EJ was floored "That's all she remembers. Aidan Nodded Ej then said "well even more reason I have to see her. Where is she?" Aidan said, "She's at the
hospital. They are keeping her over night." Ej began to walk out the door when Aidan grabbed him. EJ yelled' you get your hands off me." EJ pulled away Aidan then said, "You still haven't told me who
you are to her?" Aidan demanded EJ turned around and glared at Aidan and got in his face .I'm her husband EJ DiMera and the woman in that hospital is Samantha Gene DiMera my beloved wife. So I
suggest you back off. You have no claim here. Now take me to see my wife." Aidan's face dropped his worst fear came true. Someone did come for Santini and he wasn't leaving.
