Short filmTranscript
00:00It had been three years since the accident that left me with intermittent amnesia.
00:04Every few months, I woke up not knowing who I was.
00:07And every time, a man was there, holding my hand, whispering that he was my husband.
00:11Nine times in three years.
00:13Nine different men.
00:14They thought I didn't know the truth, they thought I couldn't remember.
00:17What they didn't know was that I had regained my memory two years ago.
00:20And this time, I wasn't going to play along.
00:23It had been three years since the accident that left me with intermittent amnesia.
00:26Three years since the night I overheard my husband, Aiden Manbull, laughing with his friends.
00:32Aiden, your wife forgets everything every few months.
00:38Each time, one of us steps in to play you.
00:42Aren't you afraid someone might actually cross the line?
00:46Afraid of what?
00:47Aiden's tone was careless, his wine swirling in the glass.
00:50Hannah doesn't care.
00:52As long as you don't touch her, she'll never want anything.
00:58But don't forget, she's still mine.
01:02When I've had my fun, I'll go back to my family.
01:06Since then, every time I woke up without my memories,
01:09the man holding my hand, whispering to me, even lying beside me at night was never truly Aiden.
01:14Nine times in three years.
01:16Nine different men playing the role of my husband.
01:18What they didn't know was this I had regained my memory two years ago.
01:21And this time, I wasn't going to play along.
01:25When my ninth husband arrived home, I sat on the couch, lost in thought.
01:30A distinct voice broke through my train of thought.
01:32Hannah! I'm back!
01:34I glanced over at the man standing at the entrance.
01:37I asked, pretending to be perplexed.
01:39Who are you?
01:40Isn't my husband's name Aiden?
01:42The man hesitated briefly before quickly responding.
01:46No! Well, I'm, I'm your husband's friend.
01:52Hannah, don't worry. I'll call your husband to come back immediately.
01:55After saying that, the man grabbed his phone and quickly headed toward the balcony.
02:01Aiden, Hannah's lost her memory again.
02:03Whose turn is it now?
02:06Come over and take over from me.
02:10I stayed hidden by the window, listening to Aiden's friends making excuses through the speaker.
02:16Aiden, your wife is so clingy.
02:18We have to be with her around the clock.
02:21We can't handle it.
02:22Yeah, she's great otherwise, but she's just too uptight.
02:26What guy can say no to temptation?
02:29What about you, Aiden?
02:30Why don't you head back yourself?
02:32Aiden's laid-back voice replied through the speaker.
02:35No.
02:36I'm not done enjoying myself. I don't want to go back.
02:38Which one of you will step in for me?
02:40It's pretty lame as friends to turn down such a minor favor.
02:44Amid their attempts to dodge the question, a distinct and unwavering voice spoke up.
02:48I'll volunteer.
02:50I knew that voice-it belonged to Caleb Radmore, Aiden's best friend, in our social circle.
02:54Caleb was known as a heartthrob who had supposedly stayed single all 30 years of his life.
02:59Initially, when Aiden suggested finding someone to pose as my husband.
03:03Caleb was the first to disagree.
03:08But now, was he intrigued by the idea of participating in this domestic charade?
03:12Half an hour later, the house's door quietly swung open.
03:16Caleb entered, silhouetted by the light.
03:18He said, his cool voice laced with a touch of allure.
03:21Hannah, I'm home.
03:23I rose to my feet, fixing my gaze on the tall, handsome figure before me.
03:28So, you are my husband, Aiden?
03:31Caleb responded, gently clearing his throat.
03:37Yes.
03:38I'm sorry, I had to work late tonight.
03:42As soon as he finished speaking, Caleb's phone rang.
03:44He mouthed an apology, picked up the phone, and stepped out to the balcony.
03:49Aiden's relaxed voice came through the line.
03:51Hey, Caleb, just a reminder.
03:53You can hold her hand or give her a hug, but don't even think about sleeping with her.
03:58She's still my wife, no matter how much fun I'm having.
04:03I understand.
04:04Caleb responded quietly.
04:06For the last three years, regardless of how those men tried to mimic Aiden,
04:10they never did more than hold my hand or embrace me.
04:13They never overstepped any boundaries.
04:18During this time, there wasn't a single photo of us in the house,
04:21nor any personal items belonging to the man.
04:24Without parents and suffering from amnesia, I had no friends to connect with.
04:28They assumed I would remain oblivious.
04:31I pretended to be ignorant, acting as though I was unaware.
04:34However, this time, I intended to change the game.
04:37I stepped forward and wrapped my arms around Caleb's waist.
04:41Darling.
04:43Even though I've lost my memory,
04:45I felt an astupply familiar connection the moment I saw you.
04:48You must be my husband, there's no doubt.
04:51I held onto Caleb's waist tightly,
04:53my hand brushing against his toned abez.
04:57Caleb's body tensed briefly, and he awkwardly pushed me away.
05:02I asked, pretending not to know.
05:04Is something bothering you?
05:10Darling, now that I've lost my memory, do you not like me anymore?
05:14It's not that.
05:16Caleb replied, his gaze shifting slightly, his voice rough.
05:20I like you.
05:22I moved closer, starting to unbutton his shirt and letting my hand rest on his chest.
05:26It's chilly today, darling.
05:28Shall we go to bed and warm up together?
05:31Caleb swallowed hard.
05:33All right.
05:34That night, Caleb and I shared the same bed.
05:37We didn't speak much, as if we had an unspoken agreement.
05:40The following day, Caleb took me to a bar, saying he wanted his friends to see me again.
05:46Upon entering the private room, I noticed Aiden embracing a woman and kissing her deeply.
05:51Caleb cleared his throat softly, catching their attention.
05:53When Aiden noticed us, he paused briefly before rising to his feet.
06:00Hi.
06:01I'm Caleb, Aiden's childhood friend.
06:03Aiden said slowly as he extended his hand toward me.
06:06And this is my girlfriend, Karen Gibson.
06:09Oh.
06:10I nodded, but didn't extend my hand in return.
06:13Of course, I knew Karen, she was Aiden's first love.
06:16They had parted ways back then due to family issues.
06:21Later, they got back together while I was dealing with amnesia.
06:26The reason Aiden stayed away from the family for three years was entirely because of her.
06:30In the private room, many of Aiden's friends were present.
06:33Including several who had impersonated my husband.
06:36At this moment, they all jested with me as if nothing had occurred.
06:40Hannah, you've lost your memory again?
06:42Aiden is truly a great guy.
06:44No matter how often you forget, he'll always be there for you and never abandon you.
06:51Yes, Hannah, you should truly value such a wonderful man.
06:58I smirked sarcastically and remained silent.
07:01Caleb wrapped his arm around me and we settled onto the couch.
07:04Once we sat down, I grabbed a piece of fruit and offered it to him.
07:07Darling, have some more.
07:09In the dim light, I noticed Aiden glancing our way.
07:12I moved closer to Caleb's ear and playfully nibbled his urlo.
07:16Darling, you were so intense all night last night.
07:20Ellie hurt.
07:21Caleb's expression tightened and he awkwardly squeezed my hand.
07:25Honey, stop fooling around.
07:27Aiden clenched his wine glass tightly, looking displeased.
07:31Karen, sitting next to him, made a sarcastic comment in an overly sweet tone.
07:35Hannah, you certainly have a talent.
07:38Even the most reserved guy in our group, who always keeps women at a distance, is completely infatuated with you,
07:46like a love-strucken teen.
07:48As soon as she said this, Aiden's friends, worried I might notice something off, let out awkward laughs to ease
07:54the tension.
08:02It just proves how strong the connection is between Hannah and Aiden.
08:10Yeah, even amnesia doesn't stop him from flaunting their love.
08:14Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed Aiden raising his wine glass to his lips.
08:20His expression as somber as ever.
08:22Feeling a wave of satisfaction, I stood up and made my way to the restroom.
08:26As I stepped out, Karen came straight toward me.
08:29As we crossed paths, she suddenly emptied her entire glass of red wine over me.
08:35Oh dear, I'm terribly sorry.
08:39My hand slipped.
08:40I raised my hand and slapped her across the cheek.
08:43I'm sorry, my hand must have slipped as well.
08:45As soon as I spoke, a stern voice sounded from behind.
08:50Hannah Acura, what do you think you're doing?
08:53Aiden approached quickly.
08:56Karen rushed into his arms, tears streaming down her cheeks as she cried.
09:02Darling, I accidentally spilled wine on Hannah.
09:06She got mad and slapped me.
09:10Now my head's spinning.
09:15Aiden's expression was grim with clear dissatisfaction.
09:19You owe Karen an apology.
09:21I chuckled icily.
09:23And who do you think you are to command me?
09:27Hannah!
09:27Aiden's eyes grew dangerous, his face darkening ominously.
09:32How did you become so conceited and overbearing after losing your memory?
09:39What I've become has nothing to do with you.
09:41I was exhausted from dealing with him, just as I was about to turn away.
09:46Aiden kicked my knee, making me drop to the ground with a heavy thud.
09:51Hannah, don't think you're free to do as you please just because you've forgotten everything.
09:56Apologize to Karen immediately.
09:58As I gazed at the man standing before me, his hair bristling in anger.
10:02All I could think was how pitiful and absurd he seemed.
10:06Having no parents, Aiden was my sole support in this vast city.
10:10We had been in love since our college days, and it had been a decade since our journey together began.
10:16When he proposed, he promised to protect me, love me eternally, and never betray me for as long as we
10:22lived.
10:25However, he had not only been unfaithful to our marriage, but had also been harsh with me because of another
10:30woman.
10:32Amidst my grief and anger, a cold, stern voice interrupted from behind.
10:38Don't touch her!
10:40Ignoring the pain in my knees, I stood up, swiftly slapped Aiden's face,
10:44and then sought refuge in Caleb's arms, complaining.
10:49Darling, your friend was so mean, he bullied me!
10:54Caleb's expression soured, a shadow crossing his eyes.
10:58He shot Aiden a warning look.
11:01Don't bully Hannah.
11:03Aiden clenched his jaw tightly, his stern expression exuding an intimidating vibe.
11:08Karen snuggled closer to Aiden and scoffed.
11:11A bus and a fool, what's so impressive about that?
11:14Aiden and Caleb shouted in unison.
11:16Be quiet!
11:17Aiden said coldly.
11:19Karen, even if Hannah made a mistake, that's no excuse to talk about her like that.
11:24Caleb's brows knitted together as he glared at Karen, his gaze frostily intense.
11:29I don't want to hear you speak ill of Hannah, ever again.
11:33With those words, he wrapped an arm around me and walked away.
11:36We headed straight home.
11:38Once inside, I embraced Caleb's waist.
11:41My hand resting on his solid ABs for a moment.
11:44Darling, you were so dashing when you stood up for me earlier.
11:47I truly loved it.
11:49A subtle blush appeared on Caleb's ears.
11:52Ahem.
11:53He cleared his throat softly and said,
11:58I'm happy you enjoyed it.
12:00I moved to unfasten his belt.
12:03Darling, it's really chilly.
12:06Why don't we head to bed and get cozy to warm up?
12:09It's still early.
12:11Who says there's a specific time for bedtime?
12:14I murmured softly, planting a kiss on his neck.
12:19Darling, I've forgotten everything.
12:23Even what closeness feels like.
12:26Could you help me remember?
12:30Caleb swallowed hard, his voice gruff and raspy.
12:34Hannah, don't play games.
12:37Ignoring his protest, I gently nudged him onto the couch.
12:46Caleb resisted for a moment but eventually flipped us over, pinning me beneath him.
12:50From the afternoon until late into the night.
12:54Caleb was like a ravenous wolf that had just found prey.
12:57Relishing every moment unable to get enough.
13:02I was so worn out that I fell immediately into a deep sleep.
13:06In a foggy state, I heard Caleb's rough voice murmuring in my ear.
13:12Hannah, do you truly have amnesia?
13:14I tried to speak, but nothing came out.
13:17Did it even matter if I was or wasn't?
13:21I wanted to ask Caleb the same thing.
13:23You acted like you didn't believe in this pretend game, so why did you end up participating?
13:28The following day, Caleb took me to the hospital for a follow-up on my cranial nerves.
13:33To our surprise, we bumped into Aiden and Karen in the lobby.
13:37Karen was the first to greet us.
13:39Hannah, Ka, Aiden, fancy seeing you here.
13:44She placed a hand on her lower abdomen, speaking with a bit of flair.
13:48I'm pregnant, just here for a prenatal appointment.
13:54What about you two?
13:58Caleb glanced at her coldly.
14:01I'm here with Hannah for a follow-up appointment.
14:04Aiden remained silent, staring at Caleb and me holding hands.
14:07Then, his gaze shifted upward, landing on the cluster of hickeys scattered across my neck.
14:13He questioned, his voice growing louder.
14:17What happened to your neck?
14:19I gave Caleb a playful look and replied, you should ask my husband about that.
14:24Aiden glanced at Caleb, his stern eyes darkened with an intimidating shadow.
14:28I seized the moment to excuse myself.
14:30I have to get a CT scan, you two can have a chat first.
14:36After I departed, Karen entered the ultrasound room.
14:39With the room silent, Aiden fixed a cold stare on Caleb, his voice chillingly icy.
14:48Caleb, did you lay a hand on her?
14:50Caleb lit a cigarette.
14:52As the smoke spiraled upward, he replied ambiguously.
14:55No, I didn't.
14:57So, how do you explain those red marks on her neck?
15:00After a brief pause, Caleb said,
15:02Probably mosquito bites.
15:04Aiden frowned, caught between belief and skepticism.
15:09Caleb blew out a smoke ring and chuckled dismissively.
15:13Even if I did, what difference does it make?
15:16You don't even want to be with her.
15:19Why not just get a divorce?
15:22Aiden responded with intensity.
15:23I can't divorce her!
15:26We've been together for so long, there's still something between us.
15:32Plus, Karen is expecting a baby now, and I can't abandon her in this situation.
15:37Caleb sneered.
15:39You're eyeing someone else's plate while you're eating your own.
15:44Aiden, that's pretty low.
15:45Aiden paused briefly before deciding.
15:48Caleb, when Hannah loses her memory again, let's switch back.
15:51We'll discuss it when she loses her memory next time.
15:55Without a clear response, Aiden's unnies grew.
15:59He looked intently at Caleb, his expression serious.
16:03I can't shake the feeling that something is off between you and Hannah.
16:08Caleb, promise me you won't ever get involved with her!
16:11Caleb put out his cigarette and was about to speak when I walked over with the CT report.
16:16Darling, I've got great news.
16:18The doctor confirmed that what Arunia nerves has fully healed,
16:22and I won't suffer any more memory loss.
16:26Aiden was stunned, as if he had been struck by lightning.
16:29How can that be?
16:32In contrast, Caleb was thrilled, his face beaming with happiness.
16:37Really?
16:37That's amazing, honey!
16:40Let's head home and celebrate.
16:42I linked arms with Caleb, ready to leave.
16:44But Aiden suddenly grabbed my arm.
16:47Hannah, don't go!
16:49Actually, I...
16:51I cut him off sharply.
16:53Mr. Radmore, regardless of your friendship with my husband,
16:57it's completely appropriate to touch me without my consent.
17:01I shook his hand off in distaste and walked away without a backward glance.
17:06The moment we arrived home, Caleb didn't even bother to switch on the lights.
17:11Before eagerly sweeping me into the bedroom.
17:17His kisses were intense, trailing down my neck.
17:20Hannah?
17:22Let's promise to never be separated again, alright?
17:25A soft voice murmured in my ear.
17:28Alright.
17:29In the dark, I murmured.
17:32Caleb responded with relentless and fierce determination, resembling a wild beast.
17:38As we neared the climax, the bedroom light abruptly clicked on.
17:45Aiden appeared at the doorway, looking furious.
17:48Fists tightly clenched, his eyes burning red like a bloodthirsty creature.
17:52You traitor!
17:54Aiden shouted, swinging his fist.
17:57Caleb, I thought of you as my closest friend, but you lied to me!
18:02Caleb staggered backward to paces from the impact.
18:06He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his voice cold.
18:10You're the one who forced her into my life.
18:12The instant you deceived her, you should have expected this day.
18:17Bastard!
18:18Aiden shouted, his anger boiling over as he swung his fist at Caleb once more.
18:23I hurried over right after getting dressed.
18:27What on earth do you think you're doing?
18:30I positioned myself in front of Caleb to protect him, addressing Aiden harshly.
18:36Mr. Radmore, my husband and I were having a private moment in our bedroom.
18:42What do you have to interfere?
18:44Why are you attacking him?
18:47With bloodshot eyes, Aiden clutched my hand, his voice shaking.
18:52Hannah, I'm your husband.
18:56I'm Aiden!
18:57I tore my hand away forcefully.
19:01Are you out of your mind?
19:03Have you had too much to drink spouting such nonsense?
19:06Anxious to prove himself, Aiden fumbled through his pocket
19:10and pulled out his ID with trembling fingers.
19:14Look, Hannah!
19:15I'm Aiden, your true husband.
19:19The man next to you is Caleb!
19:21He's pretending!
19:23I responded with a scornful laugh.
19:27Then why did you previously claim to be Caleb?
19:31If you're genuinely my husband, why keep it a secret from me?
19:36Also, aren't you involved with someone else?
19:39Karen is expecting your child.
19:42Aiden was left speechless, his mouth agape, but no words emerged.
19:47I grasped Caleb's arm with determination and said,
19:50Whoever you truly are or whatever your identity might be, it doesn't concern me.
19:56To my memory, he's my husband.
19:59Please, go away!
20:02Hannah, don't let him deceive you!
20:04Overwhelmed with emotion, Aiden moved forward, seized my hand,
20:09and attempted to kiss me by cupping my face.
20:12Caleb delivered a powerful kick to Aiden's stomach, knocking him to the ground.
20:20Don't you realize Hannah wants nothing to do with you?
20:24The veins on Aiden's forehead pulsed slightly, and the anger in his eyes was unmistakable.
20:31Caleb, you jerk!
20:34Hannah is my wife!
20:35Why can't I kiss her?
20:37Because at the moment, in her mind, I'm her husband.
20:42Seething with anger, Aiden raised his fist and was ready to strike again.
20:47Suddenly, a sharp pain pierced his abdomen.
20:49He doubled over, clutching his stomach in agony, his face turning ghostly pale.
20:54Now, seizing the opportunity, I shoved him out the door and swiftly locked it behind me.
21:00The following morning, Aiden returned.
21:02He brought along a large suitcase this time.
21:06I asked,
21:08What are you trying to say with this?
21:12Aiden marched through the door with the suitcase, displaying a bold demeanor.
21:17Hannah, this used to be my house.
21:19I'm simply coming back to where I belong.
21:22He explained.
21:23Caleb emerged from the kitchen carrying breakfast.
21:26His expression soured upon seeing Aiden.
21:29Aiden glared at him with a sarcastic tone.
21:31Caleb, this is my house.
21:33Leave my place from now on.
21:36Caleb calmly took off his apron, brushed off his sleeves, and turned to me.
21:42Hannah, will you join me?
21:45I agreed without hesitation.
21:47Sure.
21:49Aiden moved closer, firmly taking my hand, his voice tense and stern.
21:53Hannah, you can't leave with him.
21:56I'm your husband.
21:57We met before we turned 20.
21:59And I stood by you through the toughest moments.
22:02How can you just go with someone else?
22:07Hannah, I pulled my hand away.
22:09My voice tinged with impatience.
22:11I don't want to hear any more of this.
22:15I've lost my memory.
22:18Everyone insists he's my husband, so he's the only one I acknowledge as such.
22:25Aiden gritted his teeth and growled.
22:27Hannah!
22:29You'll regret this when your memory returns.
22:33I replied with a derisive laugh.
22:35Is that so?
22:36I doubt it.
22:38Ever since he shattered our marriage, I'd lost all expectations of him.
22:43So, why would there be any regret?
22:45I walked away with Caleb, not glancing back.
22:49Aiden stood motionless in the living room, watching us retreat into the distance.
22:53Looking completely lost and despondent.
22:57His eyes suddenly fell on the photo frame on the table.
23:01The picture was from when Caleb had persuaded me to take it during our first close moment.
23:05Caleb had said,
23:07Hannah, if you lose your memory again,
23:10seeing this photo might help you remember me.
23:16In the picture, I was nestled warmly in Caleb's embrace.
23:21My cheeks rosy and my gaze dreamy.
23:24Aiden glared at the image with red-rimmed eyes seething with anger.
23:27Without warning, he grabbed a nearby stool and hurled it at the photo in a frenzy.
23:37Caleb, you traitor!
23:40I was a fool to ever think of you as my friend!
23:46Aiden stumbled into a bar, looking lost.
23:50He asked for the strongest drinks they had and gulped them down one by one.
23:55Despite the sharp cramps in his stomach from the strong alcohol,
24:00he seemed oblivious to the pain and kept drinking.
24:03With each drink, his mind became clearer, but the regret in his heart only intensified.
24:09He was resolute about going back to his family, so why had things deviated from his plan?
24:14After a few drinks, Karen approached him.
24:17Aiden!
24:18Stop drinking!
24:19Karen exclaimed, taking the wine glass from his grasp.
24:22Her brow creased with worry.
24:25If something's troubling you, you can talk to me.
24:29Why bury your troubles in alcohol?
24:35Aiden lifted his gaze to the woman beside him,
24:37realizing she was the reason he had turned his back on his family.
24:42Reflecting on his actions over the past three years,
24:45Aiden felt a deep sense of absurdity.
24:49He had sacrificed his marriage for fleeting pleasure.
24:52He used to think his first love was unforgettable.
24:54But now he realized the one he truly couldn't let go of was his wife.
24:59After a prolonged silence, Aiden spoke, his voice rough.
25:02Karen, we need to end this.
25:06You should terminate the pregnancy.
25:08Karen's eyes widened in complete disbelief.
25:12Aiden, what on earth are you saying?
25:14Aiden responded with a cold scoff.
25:17Karen, Hannah is my wife.
25:20You're nothing but a homewrecker.
25:24What gives you the right to have my child?
25:28Karen couldn't believe it.
25:31But you never said that before.
25:35You told me you still loved me.
25:39That you couldn't live without me.
25:43You even wanted this child on your own, Indipative.
25:46But I regret it!
25:48Aiden's emotions surged as he slammed his wine glass down with a loud crash.
25:52I really regret it, okay?
25:56Seeing Hannah with another man felt like a dagger to my heart.
26:02I can't let go of Hannah.
26:04I'm desperate to win her back.
26:06Like a madman!
26:09Then what about me?
26:12Karen cried, tears streaming down her face.
26:15Aiden, you can't do this to me!
26:20Let's go.
26:21Aiden's voice became firm as he grabbed Karen's hand, trying to pull her outside.
26:26I'm taking you to take care of it.
26:29No, I'm not going!
26:32Karen resisted fiercely, but Aiden managed to push her into the car.
26:37Instead of going to the hospital, Aiden secretly obtained potent abortion pills.
26:42Forced her mouth open and made her swallow them.
26:45As the medication took effect, bright red blood streamed down Karen's legs.
26:52Aiden, please save our baby.
26:55Aiden ignored her pleas and replied with a chilly tone.
26:59Karen, our marriage was a mistake from the beginning.
27:03I was under a spell and made a wrong decision back then.
27:09Let's correct our paths from now on.
27:13Aiden!
27:14I hate you!
27:16Karma will catch up with you!
27:21I relocated to Caleb's home.
27:27Aiden, ever persistent, sought me out once more.
27:31He caught me downstairs while Caleb was away on a business trip.
27:37Hannah, let's have a conversation.
27:39I brushed past him and replied icily.
27:42Mr. Radmore, there's nothing for us to discuss.
27:47Aiden growled, his voice dripping with anger.
27:51I've told you before, my last name isn't Radmore!
27:54Hannah, I'm Aiden, your husband of ten years.
27:58Who has been by your side day and night.
28:02How could you possibly forget me?
28:05As I stared at the man in front of me, unraveling and on the brink of madness.
28:08I couldn't help but find the situation utterly absurd.
28:13I recalled how he had reacted when he first discovered my bouts of intermittent amnesia.
28:19He was overjoyed, as if he had hit the jackpot.
28:23So now, what's the point of acting all heartbroken?
28:25I said with a sneer,
28:28Alright, Mr. Manville.
28:29Whether you're Mr. Radme or Mr. Manville,
28:34it no longer matters to me.
28:36You don't exist in my memory anymore.
28:40Please don't bother me again.
28:43With those words, I turned to leave.
28:47But Aiden caught my wrist.
28:51His eyes were bloodshot, and his voice was rough, tinged with urgency.
28:56Hannah, you're upset about Karen, aren't you?
29:00Don't worry, I've already severed ties with her.
29:02And she's had the pregnancy and terminated.
29:04I want to settle down and live well with you now.
29:09Will you come back to me?
29:13I snapped, pulling my hand away and adding sarcastically,
29:16No.
29:19Mr. Manville, let me be clear.
29:23You're nothing but a two-faced scumbag
29:26who leads people on and then abandons them.
29:29Do you really think you can get away with cheating without any consequences?
29:34Shouldn't there be some punishment for that?
29:37Fine.
29:37If it means you'll come back to me,
29:40I'll accept any punishment you give.
29:43Aiden was interrupted by the sudden roar of a car engine behind us.
29:51Hannah, look out!
29:54Before I could process what was happening,
29:56a speeding sports car hit me, sending me flying.
30:01Everything went black after that.
30:04When I opened my eyes once more,
30:06I saw to mend by my bed,
30:08both with anxious expressions.
30:13Hannah, you're awake at last.
30:15Aiden's eyes welled with tears when he saw me come to.
30:19He dropped to his knees next to my hospital bed,
30:21slapping himself repeatedly as he said,
30:24Hannah,
30:26this is all on me.
30:31I dragged you into this mess!
30:35Thank goodness you're not badly injured.
30:38If you were, I'd never forgive myself.
30:40Hannah, there's no need to worry.
30:42The police have taken Karen into custody.
30:44I'll make sure to get the top lawyer to press the strongest charges against her.
30:50She won't escape justice.
30:52His loud voice made my headache.
30:54I cut him off, feeling irritated.
30:58Who are you?
30:59And what are you talking about?
31:02Aiden stopped abruptly, looking stunned.
31:04Hannah, have you lost your memory again?
31:07I don't recall anything.
31:09Aiden suddenly jumped up,
31:11his face a mix of shock and excitement.
31:14That's wonderful, Hannah.
31:15I'm your husband, Aiden.
31:17Even though you've lost your memory again,
31:19I'll remain by your side
31:21and find a way to help you regain it.
31:24Oh, and I brought our marriage certificate.
31:26Let me show it to you.
31:28Saying this,
31:28he retrieved a wrinkled marriage certificate from his pocket
31:32and pointed to the two people in the photo for me to see.
31:36Look, Hannah, this is us.
31:38I'm your husband.
31:44We're legally married.
31:46It's all right.
31:47If you don't remember me,
31:50we can begin anew.
31:54I interjected with a frown.
31:56Stop.
31:59Mr. Manville,
32:00I don't know who you are
32:02and I could never be interested in someone like you.
32:06I'm not sure how you got this marriage certificate.
32:09Maybe you pulled some shady tricks back then.
32:12Regardless,
32:14I want a divorce
32:16from you.
32:19What did you just say?
32:21Aiden appeared as though he'd received a shock,
32:23his face briefly frozen in disbelief.
32:25Hannah,
32:27even after losing your memory,
32:28you still won't accept me?
32:30We've been together for so long.
32:32How can you mention divorce?
32:33Mr. Manville,
32:35I have no recollection of you
32:36and I don't recognize you as my husband.
32:39Aiden grew increasingly upset and shouted,
32:42Hannah,
32:42what do you want me to do?
32:45Every time you lose your memory,
32:47you can accept my average friends.
32:49Why?
32:50So why not me?
32:54I'm your husband,
32:56yet you insist on keeping your distance.
32:58His outbursts left my heart unmoved.
33:01If he saw this coming,
33:03why did he act that way in the first place?
33:06Isn't he the one responsible for everything that's happened?
33:09As Aiden continued to shout,
33:11his anger peaked,
33:14causing him to clutch his stomach,
33:16fall to his knees,
33:17and violently cough up a large amount of blood.
33:20Caleb quietly called the nurses,
33:22who took Aiden to the emergency room.
33:27Once Aiden was gone,
33:28Caleb took a seat next to my hospital bed.
33:32He hesitated briefly before asking quietly,
33:37Hannah,
33:37do you remember who I am?
33:40I shook my head.
33:42No,
33:42I don't.
33:44Caleb's fists tightened,
33:46and his eyes reddened slightly.
33:50Can you try to remember?
33:53I'm...
33:55I'm tired.
33:56Please leave.
33:57I want to sleep.
33:58I cut him off.
33:59While I was in the hospital,
34:01the two men took turns visiting my ward.
34:04Aiden,
34:04after vomiting blood,
34:05looked more and more worn out.
34:07His eyes were shadowed,
34:08short stubble covered his chin,
34:10and he seemed quite unwell.
34:11Whenever he visited,
34:13he would either apologize profusely
34:14and plead for reconciliation,
34:16or speak incoherently
34:17while holding the two marriage certificates.
34:20Each time he showed up,
34:21I kicked him out without mercy.
34:25When Caleb arrived,
34:27he remained silent.
34:28He simply sat in the ward,
34:30looking like a man longing for his wife,
34:33continuously displaying the few photos
34:34we had together on the screen.
34:37The actions of these two men drove me crazy,
34:40and eventually,
34:41I quietly checked myself out of the hospital.
34:44Be it Aiden or Caleb,
34:46I'm fed up with this immature game
34:48and no longer wish to participate in them.
34:51I changed my phone number
34:52and secretly moved to a remote mountain village to teach.
34:55Since losing my parents early on,
34:57I've never had many desires or demands.
34:59Had I not married Aiden so early,
35:01I might have committed myself to teaching
35:03in rural areas long ago.
35:05The area I moved to was a remote
35:06and impoverished mountain region in the west,
35:08with challenging living conditions.
35:10But the villagers were genuine and kind-hearted,
35:13and the children were lively and adorable.
35:15After some time to adjust,
35:17I got accustomed to living there.
35:19In addition to teaching,
35:21I helped the villagers gather herbs
35:22and tend to cattle.
35:23Life became rewarding and enjoyable.
35:25A month later,
35:27Caleb showed up.
35:29As I left class,
35:30he unexpectedly appeared at the doorway.
35:34We hadn't seen each other for a month,
35:36and he looked thinner,
35:37with fatigue etched on his face.
35:39He asked,
35:39Hannah,
35:41how are you doing here?
35:42I answered softly,
35:44I'm doing alright.
35:45Caleb nodded and then said in a serious tone,
35:48Hannah,
35:49the verdict for Karen is in.
35:53Thirteen years in prison,
35:55and Aiden,
35:56has advanced stage stomach cancer.
35:59He doesn't have much time left.
36:01I replied with composure,
36:02as if the information was trivial.
36:04Oh,
36:05Caleb fixed his gaze on me for a moment
36:07before breaking the silence.
36:09Hannah,
36:09I spoke to the hospital.
36:12You actually didn't suffer memory loss
36:14from the car accident.
36:16And you haven't forgotten me.
36:19Have you?
36:21That's right.
36:23Caleb seemed surprised by my direct response.
36:27He hesitated briefly before asking,
36:30Why didn't you acknowledge me?
36:32I met his gaze and replied,
36:34enunciating each word.
36:35Caleb,
36:37you knew Aiden and his friends were teasing me,
36:39yet you didn't tell me the truth.
36:42Instead,
36:44you joined in mocking me.
36:46Shouldn't I be upset?
36:50No!
36:51Caleb exclaimed,
36:52clutching my hand and defending himself anxiously.
36:54I never mocked you.
36:56I didn't tell you the truth
36:57because I didn't want to lose this chance.
37:00Hannah,
37:00I like you.
37:01And I've liked you for a long time.
37:03The moment Aiden introduced you to our group,
37:05I fell for you instantly.
37:07However,
37:08I knew deep down that desiring a friend's wife was wrong.
37:11Over the years,
37:14I watched you and Aiden together,
37:16and it drove me crazy with jealousy.
37:19When you lost your memory,
37:22Aiden suggested that his friends pretend to be him.
37:25I hesitated to agree the first nine times
37:28because I feared losing control.
37:30But eventually,
37:32my selfish desires took over.
37:34Even if it meant risking my relationship with my friend,
37:37I wanted the chance to be with you.
37:39Hannah,
37:40I was wrong to deceive you,
37:41and it was never my intention to mock you.
37:43Please,
37:44can you forgive me?
37:46After he spoke,
37:47I found myself not at all surprised.
37:49I had long suspected that Caleb harbored a secret crush on me.
37:52When I began dating Aiden,
37:54I noticed at his friends' parties
37:55that one of the young men would always sneak glances at me.
37:59Whenever our eyes met,
38:00he'd quickly look away,
38:01flustered.
38:02Over time,
38:03since Caleb was Aiden's friend,
38:04he'd occasionally show up in my life.
38:06We didn't interact much or engage in conversation.
38:09We were merely acquaintances
38:10who acknowledged each other with a nod.
38:12Yet,
38:13I could always feel his gaze lingering on me.
38:15No one realized that the reserved heartthrob of the group,
38:18who never showed interest in women,
38:20had secretly desired his friend's partner for a whole decade.
38:23Caleb looked at me with intense eyes,
38:26his voice tinged with desperation.
38:28Hannah,
38:29please forgive me.
38:31Just this once.
38:35I swear,
38:36it's the only time I'll deceive you.
38:39There won't be a next time.
38:41I gave a sly smile and shrugged.
38:43It all hinges on how well you do.
38:45From that moment forward,
38:47Caleb also made the mountains his home.
38:49The once-goddled young man,
38:50who had left behind his life of luxury and indulgence,
38:53now resided in a modest wooden cabin.
38:55He ate simple,
38:57hearty meals and joined me in teaching and caring for the cattle.
38:59Although the days were repetitive,
39:01there was happiness to be found amidst the struggle.
39:04Time flew by quickly.
39:06Three months later,
39:06an unfamiliar number appeared on my phone.
39:09It was Aiden.
39:10His voice over the phone was weak and full of regret.
39:13Hannah, I'm dying.
39:14Maybe it's karma.
39:16After I'm gone,
39:17would you return to hold my coffin?
39:20No.
39:21I replied steadily,
39:22without any emotion.
39:24Mr. Manville,
39:25I don't remember you anymore.
39:28Our marriage is meaningless now.
39:30Even if you pass away,
39:32I won't come to grieve for you.
39:33After a prolonged silence,
39:35Aiden's voice finally erupted into a tearful sob.
39:38Hannah, I'm filled with regret.
39:40Truly filled with regret.
39:41I'll carry this regret to my grave.
39:44I remained silent and simply ended the call.
39:46I thought,
39:47what use is regret at this point?
39:49The moment he broke our vows,
39:51fate had already started to take its toll.
39:53This was all his doing.
39:55Three days later,
39:56Aiden's lawyer contacted me.
39:57The lawyer informed me that Aiden had succumbed to his illness.
40:00But during his life,
40:02he had bequeathed all his inheritance to me.
40:04I didn't feel much emotion upon receiving this news.
40:07I understand.
40:08I replied.
40:09The lawyer continued.
40:12Mrs. Akra,
40:13Mr. Manville had one final wish,
40:16that you carry his coffin at his funeral.
40:19I don't have the time.
40:21Someone else can do it.
40:22I refused politely.
40:24After ending the call,
40:25Caleb approached me slowly in the bright sunlight,
40:27holding a bunch of wild flowers.
40:29He asked,
40:30smiling as he handed the flowers to me.
40:33Aren't they beautiful?
40:34Yes.
40:35I said,
40:36accepting the flowers with a smile.
40:38They're very beautiful.
40:39I thought to myself that my future should be as lovely as this bouquet of flowers.
40:43I thought to myself that my future should be as lovely as this bouquet of flowers.
40:43I thought to myself that my future should be as lovely as this bouquet of flowers.
40:43I thought to myself that my future should be as lovely as this bouquet of flowers.
40:43I thought to myself that my future should be as lovely as this bouquet of flowers.
