In Place of Losing My Memory, I Remembered That I Was the Fiancée of the Capture Target - Chapter 3.6
“Alexia.”
After seeing Rebecca and the others off, His Highness sat down next to me.
“Are things going well with your fiancée?”
“Yes.”
“…I see.”
His voice sounded somewhat dark.
“Really, Xia, you have forgotten your vow with me.”
What…?
Oath?
Come to think of it…His Highness said that too when he showed up at my house.
“I have never forgotten it even for a single day.”
His Highness’s eyes, looking at me, have lost the gentleness they had until a few moments ago, and shine dimly.
“Uh…what is…the vow…?”
“Does this not remind you?”
His Highness reached into his pocket and pulled out a small bag.
He took my hand and placed its contents in the palm of my hand.
It is a necklace.
It is encrusted with diamonds and shining blue sapphires.
Could this be…. the game…?
“This is something I gave you a long time ago. But circumstances brought it back to me.”
“What circumstances?”
“You really don’t remember?”
His Highness’s eyes were right in front of me.
The sapphire eyes that stare at me as if they are going to shoot me in the face.
———I feel like my chest hurts when I’m being stared at…this feeling…
“I’ll give this to Xia once again.”
His Highness put the necklace in my hand.
“So remember. Remember the old days… the vows you made to me.”
.
.
.
“He gave it to me…”
When I got home, I looked at the necklace again in my room.
I wondered if this was the necklace from the game.
But he said he had given it to me once before…and come to think of it, sapphire is also the color of my eyes.
There is a strong possibility that it is different from the necklace in the game.
“I’ll have to ask Rebecca…”
Speaking of Rebecca…I wonder how things were going with Liam.
When they returned from the garden, I was too preoccupied with what His Highness had said to look in on them.
“The vow I swore to His Highness…”
What in the world did they promise each other?
What does this have to do with this necklace?
Even though I don’t remember anything, I am still able to live my academy life.
But…the frustration of not being able to recall past events has always haunted me.
It would be better if I could remember, but there is no sign of that yet, and….
—I am also afraid of remembering, of knowing what caused me to lose my memory.
What if something happened to me, like the doctor said, and I wanted to lose my memory?
I might be happier if I didn’t remember it… my father said.
What happened…in my past?
“…”
I unconsciously clenched the necklace in my hand, and the pain brought me back to myself.
There are people who are sad because I lost my memory.
There are those who wish I would not remember.
I…
Which one do I want?
