Chapter 491 - Prologue - Love Me Again (Rui and Cali - Spinoff Story) (1/2)
What if your spouse forgot everything about you? What would you do?
That was what happened with him, and his answer was very simple…
”If her brain wants to forget me… I will make her heart remember me… I will make her fall in love with me again...”

EXCERPT:
Rui heaved a long, deep sigh while he gulped all his whisky in his glass in one go. He sat at the bar counter while counting the days he had been with his wife, who had totally forgotten about him today because of brain surgery after effects.
He thought of the improvements he had made over the past couple of days to make her love him again.
He chuckled as he poured himself more whisky in his glass.
His path to have Cali to be his wife before was way too easy since it all started as an arranged marriage between families and merely because he was lucky that Cali liked and fell in love with him first.
He was lost in himself reminiscing about his wonderful time with his wife during those wonderful days when Cali had only him in her eyes and loved him endlessly. But he came out of his dreamland by the sound of footsteps stomping towards him.
He straightened his body… Ready to receive another row of complaints from his dear wife who seemed to be getting irritated at him more because of his strictness towards him.
But what else could he do if she chose to go out to date or mingle with young men who were obviously ready to pounce at her at any opportunity they could get. He could not keep calm in such situations and ended up imposing strict rules on her, but then while doing so he tended to forget that Cali was not aware of their relationship, she had forgotten all that happened between them, that how she made him fall for her and even that she was already married to him.
How much endurance he would have, what amount of frustration he would feel when he could not tell Cali about their relationship, because he was waiting for her... to at least fall in love with him once again.
Rui wanted her back and was not ready to share even a single bit of her with anyone. Sufferings' all his, but still he had decided to start all over again with her and this time the moves would be made solely by him!
”Who do you think you are?!” Cali hissed, her eyes fuming with anger.
Rui's eyes darted at her lovingly as he mused, 'love me again. I'm your husband.'
But then he chose to say something different, maybe because the whisky was already showing its effect so he was feeling more confident and playful.
”I'm the doctor who loves you.” Rui muttered in a low tone. How he wanted to add that he was her husband who would always love her, but Cali might freak out hearing the truth.
”What?!” Cali burst in disbelief. Did she just hear his buzzing, whispering right? She had never met someone as shameless as him in her entire life. She could not enjoy and have fun with friends, forget any chance of making a boyfriend, because he was so strict like an old man.
How dared he lock their gate without telling her the code? Even though she was staying in his house because of her father's instructions, still how could he lock the freaking door every ten in the evening. 'Are we in a freaking martial law to have such absurd curfews imposed?'
