Chapter 2

"RISHA!"

A loud voice banged on Risha's eardrums making her wake up in an instant. She sat bolt upright and scanned the surroundings in confusion.

She was surrounded by five people — two of them were an old lady and an old man, two of the others were little girls who made her heart pound loudly at their cuteness.

And the last?

"Are you okay?", he finally spoke up concernedly in his illegally smooth and deep voice.

She blinked — once. Then twice.

Then as if the earth had let out the most sudden earthquake came her scream.

"OMG!!!!", she screamed and all of them flinched, not understanding the cause of her sudden excitement.

The last person — A man. Not just a man but he was probably a walking disastrously handsome.

Tight jawline, eyes that could make someone get a nosebleed... and those lips? God, Risha could barely control her saliva from drooling out when her eyes fell on those soft petals.

"What happened, baby? Are you okay? Do you not remember us?", the old lady bombarded her with questions she didn't even get the time to think of.

Then realization hit her.

"Wait, where am I?", she thought in her mind and a rush of panic crossed her.

"Is this some ridiculous plot twist? Like SERIOUSLY?!", she internally screamed somehow he held herself up from yelling again and looked at the people around.

"Uhm... Can I ask where is this?", Risha said hesitantly.

The people seemed to have been horrified by her answer making her regret her choice of words instantly. Even though she couldn't figure what did she actually say wrong.

She stayed mum not knowing what did she have to say at this moment.

"We are your... family, Risha...", the old lady spoke up with her shaky voice.

Risha could barely process what is happening, just a few minutes ago she had her mind ducked peacefully onto a novel— Wait... a novel? A NOVEL?! YES! That's the answer! ...probably.

"Did I just fall into a cheesy CEO romance novel?", she questioned herself in her head.

"WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK? I DIDN'T EVEN SAY A BIT BAD ABOUT THAT SHITTY BOOK THAT PULLED ME INTO-", she stopped realizing she was yelling her thoughts out aloud.

And suddenly, as if a dormant volcano just came alive in her mind, she remembered about the handsome man.

"Uhm... Who are you?", she asked in a tone which made it sound like the most normal thing in the world.

"You...really don't remember me?", the man said as if scared of the answer.

Risha felt irritated but hid it well.

"I FELL INTO THE NOVEL, YOU BRAINLESS IDIOTS!", she internally cursed.

"No I don't.", the came came from her short after the question was asked and the person seemed to have been confirmed of his fear.

"Can I just know WHAT actually happened to me? Cause I don't seem to remember even a fraction of it.", she simply stated, breaking the hopes of the people standing around.

Who the hell were they? Family? That's all? NO! Hell it wasn't!

"Can you please explain what is happening rather than standing around like damn ghosts?", she said in the most polite tone she could let out at this moment when only the last thread of her patience was all she was clinging to.

"I am your dad, Risha. And she is your mom. You really don't remember us?", the old man said desperately.

"No.", Risha simply stated it as a matter of fact.

Then her eyes went to the man.

"Then who are you, Mister?"

The young man smile a bit. "You really don't remember me? Or any of us...? I am your husband, Risha."
