Amnesia

Since it was a wonderful day, Ashori went to Chezem's room to read together. Ashori had just finished one of the books that Chezem lent to her.

"This book is really interesting, Chezem."

"I know right, that book is one of my favourites."

"I'm going to read another book."

"I'm glad you're enjoying yourself."

"I am. All the books you have are really interesting."

Ashori went to the book shelve to see which book she was going to read next.

"Hmmm… What book should I read next?"

Ashori saw one of the books on the top shelve that caught her interest.

"This one!"

Ashori tried to reach for the book on the top shelve but she wasn't tall enough. Ashori didn't want to disturb Chezem who was concentrating on his book so Ashori tried to climb on the book shelve to get the book.

"Just a little bit more…. Got it! Eh…?"

Just then, while Ashori managed to grab the book that she wanted, she accidently caused the whole book shelve to fall.

"Ahh…!"

Chezem heard Ashori's scream and quickly rush to her aid.

"Ashori!"

Chezem made it on time to stop the book shelve to fall on Ashori. Ashori was lying on the floor with books lying on the floor. Then, Chezem quickly bent down to see if Ashori was alright.

"Ashori! Are you alright? Ashori!"

Ashori opened her eyes.

"Ashori! Thank goodness, you're alright! You scared me back there."

Chezem hugged Ashori tightly, relieved that she was alright. But Ashori was trying to push Chezem away.

"Umm… Who are you?"

After that, Chezem released Ashori from his arms.

" Don…don't joke, Ashori! Is me, Chezem!"

"Chezem? Do I know you?"

"Ashori! You are not being serious, are you?"

"Huh? Who's Ashori?"

"That's your name, Ashori! Don't you remember?'

"I… I don't know."

"Co…could it be when you fell, you bumped your head so now you're having amnesia?"

"I fell? No wonder I feel a sharp pain on my head."

"What? Let me see!"

Chezem checked and saw there was a bump on Ashori's head.

"Ouch!"

"I'm sorry… This is my fault."

"How is this, your fault?"

"I should've notice you were trying to grab the book on the top shelve. I'm sorry."

Chezem looked down, unable to face Ashori. Suddenly, Ashori reached out a hand and touched Chezem's face.

"Is alright, Chezem, is not your fault."

"Ashori? Do you remember?"

"Umm… No, is just that when I see you like that, my hand moved on its own, sorry."

Ashori took back her hand.

Chezem stared at Ashori straight in the eyes causing Ashori to blush.

"Wh… what are you staring at?"

"I… I promised you, Ashori, I'm going to get your memories back!"

"Ah, I thank you in advance then."

Ashori smiled sweetly at Chezem causing Chezem to blush.

Chezem bandaged Ashori's head and brought her to her room so she could rest while he thought of a method.

"Now, I do remember I have a book about amnesia. Where did I put it?"

Chezem was now in his room searching for the book that will help Ashori's amnesia.

"Found it! Hmmm… Let's see what it says in here."

Chezem read the book and found a way to help Ashori.

"It says here that to help someone to regain his or her memory, I must bring them back to the places they went before. Alright!"

Chezem went to look for Ashori and brought her to all the places she went before but Ashori still couldn't remember a thing."

Lastly, Chezem brought Ashori back to his room.

"I'm sorry, Chezem."

"Eh? What for?"

"I mean you are trying really hard so I could regain my memories but I'm just unable to."

Ashori looked down with almost tears in her eyes.

"Ashori…"

"Stop wasting your time, Chezem. There's just no way to regain my memories, just give up, I don't want to cause you any more trouble."

Ashori was trying to leave Chezem's room when Chezem grabbed hold of her hand.

"I won't give up, Ashori! I will help you to regain your memories!"

Ashori and Chezem were struggling in front of the book shelve.

"Let go, Chezem… Why are you even trying so hard for?"

"That's because I li…"

Before Chezem could finish, both of them accidently hit the book shelve and the books were falling on them.

"Ashori!"

Chezem quickly shielded Ashori before both of them landed on the floor. Chezem was now on top of Ashori with the books lying on the floor.

Chezem quickly get up from his position to see if Ashori was alright.

"Ashori, are you alright?"

"I'm… I'm fine."

"Ashori, listen to me, I will regain your memories. No matter what, I will never ever give up on you so don't give up on yourself like that because I like…"

"Huh? What are you talking about, Chezem? What do you mean by regaining my memories?"

"Huh? Ashori, you lost your memories…"

"Haha. What? Don't joke, Chezem!"

Ashori laughed at what Chezem was saying.

"Don't tell me that, when we both fell, you accidently hit your head again so now you've regain your memories!"

Ashori touched her own head.

"Ouch! When did I get this bump?"

"Ashori, does it means you remember who you are, who I am, where we are and what we were doing?"

Chezem stood up and helped Ashori to get up.

"Huh? I'm Ashori, you're Chezem and now we're in your room reading, right? And I was trying to reach for a book at the top shelve but I wasn't tall enough so I climbed the book shelve and this caused the book shelve to fall and I remembered lastly you called for my name, isn't this what happen?"

"Yes! Yes! This was what happened!"

Chezem hugged Ashori so tight after finding out that she regained her memories. Ashori was blushing away since Chezem was hugging her so tightly.

"Che… Chezem… I can't breathe."

"Ah! Sorry!"

Releasing Ashori, Chezem blushed as well.

"Ashori, so you don't remember what happened when you lost your memories?"

"Umm… I don't."

"I see."

Seeing that Ashori couldn't remember a thing when she lost her memory, Chezem didn't push any further.

"Oh, I do remember a thing."

"What is it?"

"The three words you were going to say to me before I interrupted you."

Chezem remembered what the three words were and blushed instantly.

"Wh…What three words? I don't remember."

"Eh…? Now, is your turn to play amnesia?"

"I… seriously don't remember what they were."

Chezem looked away from Ashori, trying to keep her to see him blushing.

"Chezem, you meanie!"

Looking at Ashori pouting, Chezem gave up.

"Fine, fine, I tell you."

Chezem suddenly pulled Ashori closed to him and whispered into her ear, the three words that she was longing to hear.

"I like you."

Ashori blushed, with her ears all red.

"Do…don't suddenly whisper into my ear like that."

Ashori said that while covering her ear.

"You're the one who said you wanted to hear it."

After seeing Ashori's reaction, Chezem smiles at Ashori.

"You… you could have done it normally."

"So… what is your response?"

"My response…"

Ashori suddenly pulled Chezem closed to her and whispered into his ear.

"I like you too, Chezem."

Ashori kissed Chezem's ear after saying it and now is Chezem's turn to cover his ear while blushing hard.

"A…Ashori, did you just kiss my ear."

"Revenge!"

"What…?"

Both of they stared at each other for a while then burst out laughing.

This was how their day ended.
