Chapter 618 Two Extreme Terences (2/2)
'At present, Terence behaves normally. He doesn't show any signs of any psychological trauma or instability, so is it really more difficult to hypnotize him?
If he couldn't be hypnotized and there is no other way to treat him, then it would be impossible for him to recover his memories. Is this what the doctor meant?' Carla wondered by herself.
a physical disease.
”Well, we could decide not to go on with the treatment. I figured that it doesn't matter if you remember every memory that we shared or not. We can create new memories together. Just like our memories these past few days, they're all stored in your mind, right?”
Looking up at him, Carla replied with her own concerns.
”No, Carla.”
Terence held her hand and placed it just above his heart. Then, he said gently, ”I want to recover every single memory, bit by bit, as long as they're about you, about us. We can't return to the past, so the memories that we have then are more precious for me.
Although Rainer has told me a lot, I just couldn't feel it. It's just—different.
I want to remember what I felt when my heart raced and I want to feel the warmth that our memories bring.”
”Terence...” Carla tried to say something but she couldn't find the right words to say it.
”Trust me, Carla. I'll be the complete Terence who only belongs to you,” he promised.
Bowing his head and kissing her forehead, Terence continued, ”Promise me that you'd be patient with me, no matter what I say or what I do, and you won't leave me even if I drive you crazy. Because when those moments happen, you know that person is not the real Terence.”
They stared at each other for a short while and hugged tightly afterward. Then, Terence went back to the clinic by himself.
According to the rules, during the treatment, no one other than the patient was allowed to stay inside because the Doctor needed everything to be perfectly quiet.
So Carla had to wait outside.
As time passed by, Carla paced back and forth along the windows of the corridor. She watched the sky outside turn to pale gray-blue, dark blue, and dark gradually.
Finally, the door of the clinic opened.
