Chapter 37: Fainted
Matthias panicked when he saw his wife suddenly unconscious. He immediately stopped playing and then carried his wife’s body to her room. For the first time he saw his wife faint, it certainly made him very scared. Although all this time his wife’s memories slowly returned, she had never fainted. While now because he played his wife’s favorite instrument, he actually surprised his wife to the point of fainting. Was this a sign that he was not allowed to play the piano anymore from now on?
Matthias had been waiting for half an hour until his wife woke up, her eyes were getting more teary and she kept saying apologies because he acted rashly. Indirectly he was too selfish to force his wife to love him quickly when in fact he meant to comfort his wife who was tired from work.
Suddenly his wife’s eyes slowly opened. He looked at his wife enthusiastically while touching the back of her hand.
"Victoria, does your head still hurt?"
Victoria shook her head slowly while massaging her temples. "What actually happened to me?"
"You fainted while I was playing the piano." Matthias bowed his head in resignation. "I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have played the instrument for you."
A bright smile adorned her face. Her right hand stroked her husband’s head slowly. "I actually really like that instrument. You play it very beautifully."
Matthias lifted his head slowly. "But why did you faint if you liked it? Did I do something wrong?"
Slowly Victoria positioned her body sitting leaning on the bed. "I think I fainted because I was shocked. Suddenly my memory came back when you were playing the piano. In my memory, there was a man playing the same instrument as you. I sat with him and I also played the piano."
Matthias was actually very happy to hear his wife’s memories keep coming back as time went by. Moreover, all the memories that came back were beautiful memories with her. However, he deliberately pretended not to know anything because he was worried that his wife would faint again.
His lips landed on her cheek for a few seconds. "I told you not to push yourself too hard! I’m more worried about you now. I’m afraid you’ll faint again."
