Vicky came to a sudden halt.
She remembered their anniversary before Jennifer's birthday, but since Jennifer was admitted to the hospital and she had been busy taking care of Jennifer, Vicky completely forgot about it.
She walked over to Tyler and said apologetically, "Tyler, I'm sorry. I... I forgot that it's our anniversary today."
The man turned around to look at her. "You've lost your memories, so it's normal that you'd forget."
He remained expressionless and his tone remained flat, but Vicky could still tell that he was upset.
They both knew she did not forget about their anniversary because of her amnesia.
Vicky sat down across from Tyler and said, "Jennifer has been unconscious for the past few days, and she suddenly woke up just now. I was in such a hurry to get the doctor's help that I forgot about our date..."
Tyler did not respond to it and simply waved the waiter over expressionlessly. "Start serving."
As they waited for their food, Vicky tried to initiate a conversation, and Tyler would either hum in response or simply ignore her.
Sometime later, the waiter returned with the dishes.
The piano music was smooth and pleasant, and the decoration inside the restaurant was breathtakingly beautiful, but the atmosphere between Vicky and Tyler remained extremely awkward.
Tyler set his spoon down after taking a few bites. Affected by his horrible mood, she lost her appetite as well.
'It's bad enough that I forgot about the anniversary. I've arrived late...so I can't blame him for getting upset,' she thought to herself.
Just as she contemplated how she could cheer him up, flashes of colorful lights lit up the sky outside the window.
Baam!
