The Beginning Of All Sins

Alisa left the room. She kept the door open as she left.

After she was gone, Tyler walked over to Olivia's bed. He reached out his hand to her, but she quickly pulled back, startled by his gesture. Her face looked even more frail and pale. He slowly lowered his hand, and Olivia seemed to relax a bit.

"Do you know who I am?" Tyler asked gently.

Olivia looked cautious, as if she didn't recognize him. Her expression showed confusion.

Tyler sat down beside her and said softly, "I'm your husband. Do you remember that?"

Olivia blinked, as if trying to understand what he meant.

He continued, "We've been living together for six months. Do you remember any of that?"

She looked like she was trying hard to remember.

"You're pregnant with our baby. We were both happy about it. Remember?" Tyler kept talking, hoping to jog her memory.

Olivia seemed lost in thought as she listened.

"We love each other. Do you remember that?" he added.

She clutched at her dress, her mind seeming to wander.

Tyler watched her with a sad look in his eyes and stayed back, not trying to get closer.

Alisa, who had been watching from the doorway, felt a mix of emotions seeing this scene.

Tyler remained in the room a bit longer before finally saying to Alisa, "Take good care of her."

"I-I will, sir," Alisa replied nervously.

Right now the only person Olivia seemed comfortable around was Alisa, so, Tyler left it to Alisa to look after her. He took one last look at Olivia, still hidden behind the curtains, and then he left the room.

Olivia peeked out from behind the curtains and watched him go.
