The lost memory

In a knowing tone, Lara explained. I remained silent and listened to her carefully.

"What — what happened to me?" I stammered.

"Why don't you try to recall it yourself?" She offered me a gentle smile.

Lara then laid his hands on the side of the table. She spread her hands, waiting for my hand.

I glanced at her palm and then to her bright smile. Nothing bad would happen, right? Hesitantly, I still slid my palm in her hands.

They're really soft and cold.

Slowly, Lara wrapped her fingers around my hand.

"Be at ease."

Upon hearing her advice, I stabilized my breathing. Closing my eyes as I gathered my scattered thoughts.

Lara's beauty was too much of a distraction. I didn't want to look at her right now so I could concentrate.

As my breathing and shoulders eased, my mind drifted to what happened to me.
