Clam 

Crazy Lady 

Crazy Lady 

Kira realised Austyn was right

Her arins were sore from sleeping inside a cramped car

She handed over Joshua to Austyn

He carried two kids effortlessly and didn’t put them down until they’d reached Kira’s apartment

He walked into the bedroom and laid down the twins on the big bed

His movement was so gentle, both kids were still fast asleep

Kira watched him tuck them in 

He planted a kiss on Jennie’s forehead, then on Joshua’s

Don’t they need to get washed up before bedhe whispered after he closed the door

Then why didn’t you wake them up? Kira asloed

Austyn fell silent

He couldn’t bear to disturb the kids

It’s fine,Kira said. They’ll wake up after a couple of hours. I’ll got them to brush their teeth then. There’s no school tomorrow, so they can sleep in.Austyn nodded

They were now standing in the living room in awkward silence

Neither know what to say

Austyn checked his watch

It was past ten pm 

It’s getting late, Kira said I won’t keep you then.

Austyn shook his head. I’m not going back to the hotel‘ 

Then where are you going to sleep

Here.” 

What?Kira’s eyes widened

You’ve got two bedrooms, don’t you?” 

But they are for me and the kids.‘ 

You can take the bigger bedroom. I’ll take the smaller one.” 

Kira crossed her arms. I only allowed you to spend the night here yesterday because you fainted. You look fine to me now.

I’m still feeling feverish, Austyn fibbed 

Really? Kira eyed him up and down 

Uhhuh.” 

But you were so eager to leave last time” 

A thought suddenly occurred to her. Have you got your memory back?” 

Sorry to disappoint you, but no, I haven’tAustyn kept a straight face

Kira’s face fell. Oh. Then why do you want to stay here tonight?‘ 

It’s late. I’m tired. I don’t want the hassle of travelling back to the hotel.” 

Austyn didn’t miss the crestfallen book on her face. Are you hoping I’d recovered my memory?” 

Kira nodded

Is the old me better than this version of me?” 

Yes,she answered without thinking. You used to be overbearing, badtempered, difficult to get along with ‘ 

Austyn snorted. Then why do you still prefer the old me

Because that’s still ten times better than this current version of you. You are a Austyn shook his head, exasperated. I’m still mel both versions are me 

aloot and cold and distant. I don’t like this version.” 

Kira just shrugged

-5 

There was no point arguing with him

Anyway, why did you stop sending me bento boxes back in Rinton

How did you know it was ma?” 

It’s not a difficult guess

Why would you care? Kita looked away, You didn’t like the food anyway.‘ 

A secretary at the company told her to stop sending food to the company

Kira persisted for a few more days, but gave up when the secretary told her that Austyn never once touched the food, Kira muttered, It doesn’t matter anymore

Austyn cleared his throat, feeling a little embarrassed

Back in Rinton, you suddenly showed up out of nowhere and claimed to be my wife. Of course I would be put on guard

He even thought she might be a stalker or a crazy person 

It had happened to him before

Austyn was once waylaid by a stranger who escaped from a mental hospital

The woman claimed Austyn was her boyfriend and refused to let him go until she was hauled away by her doctor

*You are lucky I didn’t call the cops on you,Austyn said with a smile. After all, everything you did fit the symptoms 

of 

someone suffering from a mental 

Kira rolled her eyes at him Are you calling me crazy?! 

If the hat fits

That earned him another eye roll

Austyn smiled. There was one night when you refused to leave my apartment. Even spent the night in the hallway outside. I can’t be blamed for drawing the wrong conclusion‘ 

He turned serious when he recalled the incident. You shouldn’t have done that. Do you low how dangerous it could be

Kira muttered under her breath. How could there be danger when I’m with you?”
