- The little blonde angel...
The little fair-haired angel...
But who was Goren talking about.
Logan had no idea.
In the few minutes his heart had been stopped, had he seen an angel...
Had he seen the light, the light that led to heaven.
And this angel would have been waiting for him at the exit.
- Where's Alexa... Goren turned his gaze to the door. When I opened my eyes and saw her leaning over me... He turned to Logan, looked him straight in the eye. I thought I was in heaven.
Alexa...
In heaven...
Oh...
At that name, and at the rest of Goren's words, everything became clearer in Logan's mind, and he understood what Goren was telling him.
The little blond angel was none other than his partner Eames.
Logan hadn't made the connection.
Even though she was small in stature, had blond hair and, above all, had remained at Goren's bedside, watching over him around the clock, never leaving his side.
Logan should have made the connection.
So that's what Goren called Eames, his little blonde angel.
Strangely enough, this didn't surprise Logan.
Goren had a real affection for Eames, treating her like his little sister.
But Logan knew that between Goren and Eames there had always been a strong bond.
- She'll be back...
At the worry in Goren's voice, Logan snapped out of his thoughts, falling from the brown eyes that stared back at him intently.
For God's sake...
Of course Eames was coming back.
Why did Goren think she wouldn't.
Did this mean that his deepest fears would always resurface, even if he had no memory of them?
As if our mind lost everything, there were some things it kept deeply anchored.
And right now, Goren was a perfect example of this, and Logan had to reassure him first and foremost.
- She won't be long now.
Was it true...
Was Alexa coming back...
She'd left him with that man.
Logan if he remembered what Alexa had told him.
Telling him they knew each other well, and that he could ask her all sorts of things, if he had any questions, and that he'd give him all the answers he wanted.
But from the moment he'd seen Alexa, Goren had wondered if there wasn't something going on between him and her.
She looked after him, she cared for him, so maybe...
Since Logan was there, he could ask him.
He could probably answer her.
For strangely enough, he'd been reluctant to ask Alexa.
He'd been afraid of making a mistake.
Afraid she'd take it the wrong way and leave him.
Goren didn't understand his fear that she'd give up.
Was there a reason he had this fear?
Maybe in his past.
But since he had no memories...
How could he know, except by asking lots of questions to get answers.
At least, if he could get them.
And there was one question in particular he'd like to know the answer to.
And since he was alone with Logan, he was going to be able to ask him.
- Are Alexa and I...
Were he and Alexa...
Oh...
Logan opened his mouth to close it again, a small smile on his lips, seeing a blushing Goren who didn't dare look at him.
For a question...
It was a question.
So Goren thought he and Eames were a couple.
Well... well...
But this was getting very interesting.
Maybe he could...
No...
It wouldn't be right to take advantage of Goren's weakness.
Then Logan would tell him the truth.
Goren had a right to know, not to remain in the dark.
- I'm sorry... But no.
At his words, Goren lowered his eyes to his nervously clasped hands.
So the little blond angel who took such good care of him wasn't his wife.
He felt a little twinge in his heart.
But then why was she taking care of him.
Didn't she have a family.
A husband and children.
Alexa was very pretty.
She had to have a life.
And taking care of him had to deprive her of her happiness.
It wasn't fair to her.
He had no right to do this.
He was going to have to tell her to go home.
And above all, to take care of her family.
- Then why is she taking care of me... Goren shouted, casting an anger-darkened glare at Logan, his facial features contracted. She should be looking after her family instead of here worrying about me.
Why was Eames taking care of him?
But what a question.
Simply because Goren was an important person to her, and she cared about her partner.
Eames was a very loyal person, especially to Goren.
But was that really the only reason.
In addition, Eames had no family.
She had no husband, no children.
So why was Goren reacting as if he were a wounded animal.
He should have been flattered by the attention.
But he wasn't.
It was Goren all right.
What did Goren think...
If Eames took care of him, it was because she wanted to, it was her choice.
So why the anger.
On this side, he saw the Goren of before, the one who hadn't lost his memory.
The man who could throw tantrums over little things.
But strangely enough...
The reaction Goren had just had, and what he'd just asked him to tell him about Eames, was starting to take a serious turn in Logan's brain.
Could it be that Goren had feelings for Eames that were more than brotherly, more friendly.
It certainly seemed that way.
Because he wouldn't have reacted like that, like an angry, wounded animal, if that wasn't the case.
Who knows, maybe this accident was just a twist of fate that might help them get out what was deep in their hearts.
- I don't understand why Alexa is doing this for me...
At her words, Logan smiled, touched.
There it was again.
It was Goren he was looking at.
Despite the serious accident, the coma, and now his memory loss, he would always remain this angry, wounded man.
Why couldn't he accept that.
Instead of getting in his head and making things up.
- Because she simply wants it... So accept it.
Accept it...
While she sacrificed herself for him.
It wasn't right.
He couldn't do that.
Did he even have the right.
Wouldn't she blame him later.
- Stop worrying...
Name of God...
Stop worrying...
And how.
In addition, how was it that Logan read so much into her thoughts.
Alexa had told him they knew each other well, but at this point...
- And if Alexa ever blamed me...
Alexa would blame him.
Goren was going to have to relearn how to get to know Eames, and especially how to rest his shoulders on her.
Logan knew very well that Eames had always been Goren's support.
And that it would always be that way.
Small, approaching footsteps were heard, causing them to pause and turn their gaze to the door, to see an Eames appear, who set her big hazel eyes on Goren, a small smile on her lips.
- Speaking of your little blonde angel...
