"You have nothing to be worried about, Mr. Rodney. While your wife is clearly showing signs of temporary amnesia, I believe it is not going to be a long lasting experience. Her memories will be back in no time," the Doctor stated. His gaze was steady and his voice came off with a reassuring tone.
The words did nothing to assure Curtis though. His hands curled into fists, and while he could only hope that the doctor was telling the truth about her memories being only temporarily altered, he was still very very unsettled.
Curtis said nothing to the doctor though. He only nodded at the man. "Thank you, Doctor."
"You're welcome. Try not to stress her too much, please. She still needs to rest. I'll be back to carry out another check up in a few hours," he stated before walking out.
As soon as the door closed behind the doctor, Curtis turned to face Lara.
They stared at each other for a long while, and Curtis had to fight against the panic that was threatening to strangle him.
