Bestfriends Shouldn’t Know How You Taste Chapter 82
Ashley‘s POV
“Don‘t worry his memories wille back, it‘s normal that he doesn‘t remember everything ” Doctor
Gomez informs us as he closes the door behind him. “Also I suspect that he might have confabtion,
create fabricated memories, so be aware of that.”
We were all outside of ke‘s room since he had fallen asleep. He had not once lifted his gaze to
mine. It hurt. Never had ke treated me with such indifference.
I wrap my arms underneath my breast as if it will protect me. Who was I kidding, I was already hurt.
“How long will it take for him to regain his memories? Is there a specific time frame?” I couldn‘t help let
iny hopefulness leak into my voice.
Gomez‘s eyes stray away from me as he clears his throat. “With this kind of condition no one can
predict a specific date or time he will regain his memories but there is more than a ny percent
chance that he will.”
My stomach sinks. I could feel tears at the back of my lids, ready to fall out.
“When will he be able toe home?” Ace asks leaning against the door.
Home. Will he even want toe home with me, to me?
The thought has my head pounding, heart racing but not in the good kind.
“We need to leave him here for at least one night to check on him, see if there are any other
complications we have not noticed yet. So if everything works out he‘ll be able to go home by tomorrow
afternoon.” Gomez states and writes down something on the clipboard.is
He then lifts his eyes to mine and smiles reassuringly. “Don‘t worry too much about it Mrs. Reed, I am
certain he‘ll regain his memories. I will advise you to try to jolt back his memory when you reach home.
There is a possibility that he can remember certain things you did when you two were together. But
also do take things slow with him. Patients who suffer amnesia tend to be a bit aggressive and
depressed.” 1
*Next day*
I sniffle lifting my wet face from the sink to stare at my reflection in the mirror. My eyes were red from
crying, hair messy from running my hands through it many times. I looked like a mess, I was a mess.
I choked back a sob. I had excused myself out of his room, not being able to bear the nk confused
stares he asionally sent me. I had been in the bathroom for more than five minutes, hopefully not
worrying anyone,
Ace was helping his wife pack some of ke‘s belongings that hisrades had kindly dropped off
yesterday afternoon. It was saddening to see that he remembered them but could not remember me,
his wife, his bestfriend for years. 1
I was a stranger to him.

Ansh set of tens rolled down my cheeks. This time I couldn‘t stop it.
You listen here ke Tyler Reed, you will go home with your wife and you‘ll stay with her.
Ashley has not slept for days, she has not left your side. She‘s been with you. She never gave up on
you and you will not give up on her, you owe her this much,” Ace‘s voice was a grumble
There is quieness for a few minutes which makes me believe that ke had surrendered his
comints
Are you okuy in there Ashley” Ryn knocks on the bathroom door, startling me.
I cleared my throat.” Yeah, yeah I‘ll be out in a minute!” 1 shouted and opened the faucet. “Good
because our flight leaves in an hour and we need to be at the airport soon. The drive is a bit long” She
says.
I hear her retreating footsteps and let out a sigh. I‘m pathetic, hiding inside the bathroom to avoid my
husband that doesn‘t even remember me
I dip my head down to wash my face, hoping that it‘ll lessen the redness in my eyes. After I was done, I
used a small towel the hospital statt had kindly ced on the counter to wipe my face I staredat my
reflection onest time before heading out of the bathroom.
I paced on ke smile when everyone‘s heads snapped to me. I avoid staring at ke, not wanting to
drop the facade of being okay when I see the nk look on his face.
“Well we must be on our way.” Igre slightly but ites out forced.
“Is this thest of the bags?” ke asked as he ced the bags he held on the floor. Ryn and Ace had
just dropped us off and promised toe soon after we settled in. It was clear that they just wanted to
leave us two alone for a while.
I nodded, smiled then stopped when he gave me a nk look. I close the door behind us and watch
him look around our home. “So this is where we live?” He questions.

When he turns around and has his back to me, I could clearly see the white bandage covering where
the bullet had pierced. I nodded even though he couldn‘t see me since he faced front.
“Yeah, wee to our home.” Iughed awkwardly. He turns around when he hears myughter and
stares. Something flickers in his eyes but I didn‘t have time to see it. He clears his throat and moves his
eyes away from me.
“So where is my room? I‘m kind of tired.” He says.
I giggled wanting to ease the tension as I joked. “Well being jegged will do that to you.”
He doesn‘tugh or smile. He just stares nkly.
My heart squeezes painfully. Not because he didn‘tugh no, because he did not say our room.
