Beautifully Broken

My mind forced me to forget the pain, but when he walked back into my life, my heart begged me to remember.

I blinked.

At the time, I didn't think anything of it. It was automatic. A harmless bodily function I did often. I didn't expect that the next time I opened my eyes, I'd be waking in a hospital room with a gunshot wound and a concussion.

Eight months forgotten.

I've been told it's better that way. To have my memories suppressed. To forget the pain of everything I endured. But if it was all so terrible, then why does the stranger with the stormy, chocolate brown eyes make my heart betray me? Why does he make me feel things I have no right to feel when my heart belongs to someone else?

My hand instinctively flies to my neck, sliding along the bumps popping up beneath my fingertips. I feel like I should already know how to read them.

And maybe I should.

Because the man in front of me connects me to my memories. He's the reason I forgot. The man who betrayed me. Killed to protect me. The reason my heart's been torn in two.
