Before leaving the school premises, Luna decided to walk around the campus because this would be her final trip to her school, where all her dreams began. This is the place where she met Shawn, the man she truly loves.

She passed by the biology lab, where she and Shawn used to study and do experiments before. She had many memories with him in that school, even the most embarrassing moments with him happened inside the biology lab.

Her face shows a faint smile as she began continuing to walk and slowly shook her head to avoid thinking of their situation, but she cannot help it, especially that Shawn cannot remember her already breaking her heart.

When she was about to pass the next lab, she saw someone familiar in front of the library door, so she stopped to observe him.

"Shawn?" She was startled. Her heart started to beat fast as she cannot confirm if that man, she saw was really Shawn or not.

The figure of the man went inside the school clinic, so she quickly ran to the door. When she was about to open the clinic door, she heard the noises of two people talking inside the clinic.

"S-Shawn? What are you doing here?" Luna heard a woman's voice. Luna already recognized the owner of the voice inside the school clinic.

It was Liza, the woman who started all the mess. Luna clenched her fist when she recognized that it was Liza who was speaking. Liza uttered Shawn’s name. So, she was right. The man inside the clinic with Liza was Shawn.

Luna’s heart started aching.

"Shawn, what are you doing here? You should still be in the hospital and resting. Are you okay now?", Liza asked with concern on her face but deep inside she worries for herself.

"I'm fine now, Liza. I heard from my parents that you saved me." Shawn smiled in front of Liza. "Thanks to you, I am still alive", then Shawn held Liza's hand and kissed it gently.

Liza’s eyes widen in shock because she cannot believe what is happening in front of her. Shawn still does not remember anything. Liza worried for nothing. Well, Whatever, everything is happening according to her plans. Liza thought while giving Shawn a sweet smile.

Last night, while Liza was still worrying about Shawn’s condition, she received a call from Mrs. Lucas. She looked at the screen of her phone and suddenly got nervous because of the thought that they finally found out who hurt their son.

"Mrs. L-Lucas… H-hello!" her voice was trembling in fear. She started biting her nails.

"Liza! Thank you for answering my call. Shawn was already fine now. Few more days and he can now be discharged", Mrs. Lucas replied.

Liza’s world almost stops when she hears the news. She was happy to know that Shawn finally woke up from the accident but what fear she is Shawn would probably point her as a suspect.

“Mrs.—” when she was about to say something Mrs. Lucas interrupted her with words she never expected.

“By the way, my son was looking for you. He kept asking for your presence. I think my son likes you, Liza. You should visit her when you have time” Mrs. Lucas said.

Liza suddenly stops biting her nails when a smile forms on her face. She heard it right. Shawn was looking for her and Mrs. Lucas thought that her son likes her.

"I am so happy to hear that Mrs. Lucas. Kindly tell Shawn that I am looking forward to meeting him. Thank you!".

"Please, call me Auntie. And okay, see you soon, then".

Liza grinned as she sat on her bed. Why does Mrs. Lucas allow her to call her Auntie? And why is she being informed about Shawn's condition instead of Luna? Did they not like Luna?

Liza looked at the mirror in front of her as she smiled widely. Maybe… Shawn’s parents do not like Luna at all. She must take this opportunity while Luna cannot do anything.

"Should you not be with Luna right now? She is your woman", Liza asked. She will test Shawn if he could still remember Luna. She needs to be cautious because he might remember the accident.

"Luna? The girl who was claiming to be my woman. I do not remember her at all… C-can we not talk about her right now because I am here to invite you for dinner later” Shawn smiled at Liza.

"Really? Sure, I am so happy Shawn''. Liza replied while faking her smile. She wanted to laugh because of what is happening right now. Shawn is talking nonsense about Luna. How could he say something like that? Did he not love Luna wholeheartedly?

In the past, whenever she tried to seduce Shawn. Shawn keeps ignoring her and would talk about being loyal and faithful to Luna. However, today is different. He does not want to talk about Luna.

"I'll pick you up later than at your house", then he leaned forward to kiss Liza's hand again and left.

When Luna felt Shawn that he is about to open the door, she ran towards the corridor and hid. After hearing those words, Liza’s heart was delighted, while Luna’s heart sunk.

Shawn, how could you do this to me? I am your woman. Luna thought then tears came out of her eyes because of jealousy and hurt she felt from the bottom of her heart.

Luna cannot take it anymore. She let the tears from her eyes fall continuously because of what Shawn said. The truth that the man she loved is pursuing the woman who ruined their relationship and the one who made him stop to remember her.

Liza thought of something, so she decided to open the door and followed Shawn from behind.

"Uhm… Shawn? Can you wait for me? I need to tell you something" Liza walked towards him and held his hand tightly.

Liza was happy today. She never thought about what she had done to him can give her so much happiness. She dreams of marrying Shawn before, to be with him, to settle with him, to live with him, and to have kids. Now that her plan started to become successful, she will do everything to make her dream come true even if she must risk someone else’s life.
