Third person’s POV:
“After examining Sapphire’s CT scan and MRI reports, I have come to the conclusion that she doesn’t have any serious brain injury. But she is suffering from amnesia. Symptoms of temporal retrograde amnesia which was caused by the injury of her head and dissociative amnesia which was caused by the emotional shock are both evident in her. Her PTSD has also taken a serious turn. I can prescribe her antidepressant drug but there is no specific medicine to treat her amnesia. We have to work on it slowly and patiently.” Dr. Nethrabathi finished.
“If she is having amnesia, then how come she can remember past incidents?” Alexander enquired.
“Every patient is different, Mr. Rodriguez. Her condition is complicated because I think she is suffering from both temporal and dissociative amnesia at the same time. Normally temporal retrograde amnesia is caused by head injury. As she was hit in the head, I believe that caused temporal retrograde amnesia. In this type of amnesia, recent memories are affected first and past memories are spared. Like Sapphire’s case, she can’t remember about her present life, but her past life is always in her mind. And another thing, it may also be possible that she is suffering from dissociative amnesia which was caused by emotional trauma and shock of the rape, which is why she cannot remember her recent biographical memories.” Dr. Netheabathi explained.
“What can you do to cure her? Come to the main point!” Alexander snapped.
“There is no guarantee but there are possibilities. I want to perform occupational and psychological therapies on her. These will be most effective right now. But there are some things we have to do first-” Dr. Nethrabathi stopped in mid.
“Why did you stop? What do we need to do? I will do anything.” Alexander said in a determined tone. “Mr. Rodriguez, it’s apparent that patient is scared of you and whenever you are around her, she remembers her traumatic memories and acts very frightened and sometimes gets panic attacks. If we want to continue her treatment properly, you should stop seeing her for the whole time until she gets normal.” Dr. Nethrabathi stated.
“What?! Are you out of your damn mind doctor or are you tired of your goddamn life? Which one?!” Alexander roared.
“Mr. Rodriguez, please try to think rationally. This patient is in a very complicated condition. Her psychological state is very vulnerable. Whenever she sees you, she acts abnormal, scared, gets a panic attack. At this rate, I can’t guarantee her recovery. You have to help me too. Because, her treatment, condition demand that, not me. It’s a matter of fact.” Dr. Netheabathi tried to reason herself.
Alexander closed his eyes, clenching his jaw and heaved out a long breath. He tried to keep himself calm. He gritted his teeth furiously. If the woman standing him was not Sapphire’s doctor, he would surely put a bullet in her forehead.
“You have given me the time of three months. I highly suggest in these period, of her treatment, stay away from her. And I also think she is alone, she needs to interact with her family members or friends, or people whose company she likes.” She suggested. Family. Her friends. Her loved ones.
Alexander suddenly felt like he didn’t know about Sapphire. Not her family or friends. He felt that the girl he claimed to love, about her, he doesn’t know at all. All he just did was took her from her peaceful life and forced a life she never wished to have.
She was lonely. A lonely girl who had nobody beside her to offer a shoulder to cry on, nobody to console her, nobody to nurse her, if she was ill. She was carrying a burden of bitter past ll by herself. But fate turned out cruel that she was captured by a devil, who just claimed to love her but never truly loved her. If he did, she wouldn’t be in such a state. Alexander was lost in a deep quicksand of thoughts. He let out a sigh.
Already I have done a lot of damages to her. I snatched everything from her and even nearly her life through my selfishness. I must do it now for her sake, for my angel. I will do it. After the treatment, she will have come back to me, either she wants to or not. But now I must do this for her well being. I must control my possessiveness towards her.
“Okay. For her treatment, I will do it. I will do anything for her wellbeing.” Alexander said.
“Mr. Rodriguez, her parents are not here, but you can easily contact her friends. She really needs to interact with people whom she is emotionally attached with. Call her friends, if necessary.”
Alexander recalled when he had his people collect information about Sapphire; she had a friend named Bella.
He decided to talk to Mr. Benson about this and had Bella come here.
He asked Mr. Benson if Sapphire had any friends or specific somebody, she liked his/her company.
“Mr. Rodriguez, she had a friend named Bella. Sapphire also liked to spend time with children of the orphanage. But I don’t think if they will come here.” Mr. Benson described.
“Why?” Alexander frowned.
“Because of you. Sapphire was really scared when you got Nathan into an accident and compelled her to break up with him. She was afraid that you will end up hurting everyone she loved, her friend Bella and orphanage. So, she cut all her relations with them, being a bad girl, to protect them from you in the near future. She cried a lot when she intentionally broke her friendship with Bella. They were like sisters. She did all these to protect them. She knew you could use them against her, by hurting them.” Mr. Benson responded.
Pressing his lips together in a thin line, Alexander listened all. He felt ashamed of himself. Was that low Sapphire thought of him? She couldn’t be blamed. It was his behavior, attitude which made her think about him this way. He would never use any children or innocent people to get her. Out of his Jealousy, he had hurt Nathan. He could never allow anybody have Sapphire, other than himself. In this matter, he did not care about Sapphire’s opinion. He was very much possessive, nearly deadly.
“It may be ironic Alexander, you claimed her as yours, claimed to love her. But till now all you have done were nothing but taking and snatching from her. Do you even understand the deepness pain of this orphan girl has gone through when she cut all her relationships with them? When she made them intentionally hate her?” Mr. Benson added. Alexander lowered his head in shame. His heart constricted in pain, regret.
He realized that his selfish obsession had led Sapphire to a path of destruction.
But what now? It can’t be continued like this.
If I damaged these, then I would be the one who should repair them. He vowed.
It had been seven days since the treatment begun. Alexander was true to his words.
He never showed his face to Sapphire. He just watched her from afar. When she went to roam in garden with the maids , he watched her . when she was asleep , he watched her ans stroked her hair gently . But never let he sense his presence to her . he accepted the fact that his existence was traumatic to her .
her sleeping face , baby like posture all he adored , admired , loved . his intractable desire for her was still insatiable . but he controlled himself , for her sake , his broken angel .
he was determined to get her back ,give her everything she ever deserved .
