/ LIYANA'S POV
"I told you not to come."
"I also told you I'll come."
I scoffed. "Ugh you are so annoying!"
Max chuckled and followed me.
I don't know what gotten into him but he keeps on visiting me at Rivendell.
It's been past three days since I found out about my lost memories and it's so awkward for my part to talk casually like this with him this time.
"Are you okay now?" He suddenly asked.
"Huh?" I frowned at him.
"Snow told me you collapsed the other day." He explained.
I secretly rolled my eyes. Ugh Snow! Why do you have to tell him even that?! That girl really.
"Yes I am fine." I collapsed after breaking the barrier. That's what they said. So I am unconscious then while I drift into my memories witnessing it with my own eyes.
I look at Max. Did we make up after we broke up? Because strangely, even after knowing how he broke my heart and how I endlessly cried, I don't feel any resentment or hate towards him.
"Why?" Max asked when he caught me looking at him.
I immediately averted my eyes.
"Nothing. I just find you... ugly."
Then I walked faster.
"I know." He said making me frown.
Did he just agreed?!
I look at him and he is happy more than offended. And then I remembered, I always tell him his ugly and he would always just agree and laugh about it.
"Silly memories." I whispered not knowing he actually heard me.
We continued walking and we reached our house after less than an hour. After regaining my memories, I wanted to personally ask my Mom, my Aunt rather, why they choose to hide the truth from me.
"Hi Mom," I greeted and turned to look at Max to introduce him.
"My friend came with me."
Max stepped forward and greeted Mom who was so happy to see him.
"Stay here. I'll just talk to Mom and after that, we can go." I told Max.
"Sure. Don't worry about me. I'll be just fine here." He said taking a bite with the foods that Mom served him.
Seeing how we enjoys the food, I turned my back to leave him at the kitchen as I make my way at our living room to talk to Mom.
"Mom," I approached her.
She turned to look at me and frowned.
"Why are you here? Why did you left your friend alone in the kitchen?"
"He is fine Mom. Don't worry." I told her.
"Besides, I came here to talk to you."
Mom smiled softly. "Why? Is anything troubling you this days? Are you okay?"
"Don't worry Mom. I am fine." I said. I reached for her hands holding them gently. I am afraid she'll panicked if I get to say what I planned to say.
Seeing how I am holding her hands gently, she immediately sensed I am troubled.
"Is something the matter, sweetheart? You can always tell me. I am here." She said softly.
Pulling as much air as I could, I look at Mom and spoke.
"I already regained my memories, Mom."
I lowered down my head after I said that. And I am expecting her to be shocked or to panic but instead I heard her sigh in relief.
"I am glad to hear that, sweetheart." I lifted up my head and saw her smiling at me. 
"But why are you still calling me Mom?"
"Mom.." I didn't know what to say.
"You must feel betrayed knowing I lied to you but you still calls me Mom, with that I am thankful sweetheart." Mom said.
"It was your Mom's decision, which I initially introduced as your Aunt, to lie about her to you. When you woke up after being sick for a long time and you don't recognize any one of us, your Mom told me to introduce myself as your Mom. At first, I am also wondering but because it is her earnest request, I agreed." Mom sighed and look at me.
"Then later on, I came to know that she had been used by people with dark intentions. You must know about Heila, the former Queen of Rivendell right?" Mom asked.
I nodded at her question. Although it's only a quick glimpse, I saw how Heila led the Rivendell people to attack Cassopeia but they didn't succeed. Many of the Rivendell people died including the Queen herself... but wait.. what about her?
I look at Mom and she immediately understood what I wanted to ask as she spoke to answer me.
"Heila died but the war between Rivendell and Cassopeia didn't end with her death. Although, Rivendell is already co-ruled by the Queen of Cassopeia, the remaining people of the former Queen Heila is still alive out there and we really don't know what they are planning. And as of now, they held your Mom in captive in hopes to use you, her daughter, to get their way inside Cassopeia."
"What?" My eyes widen.
