Meanwhile, I was reunited with my family.
They had vehemently opposed my marriage to
John, seeing the unhealthy dynamic between
him and Ashley.
But I was blinded by John’s sweet words and
had even said hurtful things to my parents.
Disappointed and heartbroken, they had
emigrated.
But when they learned about what I had
endured, their anger turned to concern.

The emergency landing on the deserted island
was their plan.
A way to protect me from John.
My mother’s eyes filled with tears when she
saw me.
“Sarah, you’ve lost so much weight.”
Back at their home, she saw me remove my
wig, revealing patches of hair loss. She
noticed the raw scratches on my arms.
She broke down, sobbing.

The medication’s side effects had caused my
hair to fall out in clumps.
My skin had been covered in an itchy rash,
keeping me awake at night, driving me to
scratch until I bled.
I wiped away her tears.
“Mom, I’m back. I’m safe.”
“I’ll listen to you from now on. I won’t go anywhere.”
“I’ll see a doctor tomorrow. They’ll fix me.”
She pulled me into a hug.

“Sarah, you’ve suffered so much.”
My father turned away, wiping his own eyes.
My mother took me to the hospital the next
morning.
The doctor said the medication had severely damaged my body, but thankfully, I had
stopped taking it in time. Continued use could have led to cancer.
With proper treatment, I would recover.
My parents kept me busy, showering me with attention and small gifts.

I knew they were trying to distract me, to
keep my mind off John.
I didn’t try to forget him.
But I realized it had been a long time since I
had thought about him.
Until one day, a news alert popped up on my
phone.
John was offering a huge reward for
information about my whereabouts.
He called me his missing wife.
He had written a lengthy, heartfelt plea,

declaring his love for me.
