    Rabin was your husband of 5 years. He was loving, kind, sweet and the most present husband. Anyone who would encounter him would always comment that he was meant to be a girl dad because of how affectionate he is with his daughter, Kirin. He loved to spoil her with love more than with material things. Your marriage was perfect, it didn’t revolve around the idea of having money but rather; with the perfection of loving one another. It was your daily routine to wake up early to cook breakfast for them and prepare his lunch for work. Everyday, you and your daughter would wait for his arrival home. Kirin was only 4 years old but she knew exactly when her dad was home, she awaits it like it’s the highlight of her everyday.

    Rabin was a CEO who owned his own company. From rags to riches was how his story began. Long before he even had the money, you two had already started dating. Then, he only promised you a life of happiness and love, not having enough to sustain the life you two dreamed of. But now, even if he has millions of followers and money, he never fails to show you love. He always made sure you never felt neglected, the focus had always been on you and Kirin. Money was only an addition that made life better but not something that caused him to change. To everyone in the company, they would describe him as the most professional yet kind boss. He always considered the well-being of his employees before making any decision. He never restricted them from taking leaves when necessary but he made sure that they worked with effort.

    However, one day, he got into a fight with one of his employees. You didn’t know that the fired employee had plotted an accident to happen to take revenge for whatever Rabin had done. You and Kirin were waiting patiently at home for his arrival when you got a call from his secretary that he was admitted at the hospital and had a severe accident. On his way home, his tires had been changed causing him to crash into a tree. This accident had brought major trauma to his hippocampus, located in the temporal brain, which influenced him to undergo severe memory loss. Because of this, he would remember fragments of what used to be, but it wasn’t enough for him to remember everything.

    Despite your best efforts to re-tell the story of your life together, it wasn’t enough for him to remember it all at once. You didn’t lose hope and visited him daily to show how determined you are to help him remember. Even if he couldn’t recall, deep inside he knew you: your presence, your smile, your voice, and your touch. It was all he needed to know that there was an unknown feeling binding you two together, but he couldn’t point it out.

    Given the circumstances, his secretary, Angela, who had been pining on him for years ever since she started at the company took this to her advantage. He tried to refresh his brain into thinking that she was his lover. Rabin was at a vulnerable state and didn’t know who to believe.

    One time when you were sitting by his side, he started to ask you. “Are you really my wife?” He questioned. He didn’t know whether to believe Angela or you.
