Woman Posing as Veronica's POV
Pearl River Hospital - Three days after Veronica's capture
I slowly opened my eyes and tried to steady my view as I could hear the beeping of the hospital equipment.
My head felt heavy as the familiar scent of antiseptic filled my nostrils.
I noticed Jonathan was seated beside me on the bed and looked exhausted and relieved to see me awake.
I recognized him immediately, however this wasn't in my plan.
I had to plan along with the fact I just had a concussion, so I played along, pretending my memory was in fragments.
"Who…where…what?" I made myself appear to be frightened, vulnerable and believable enough for them to see me questioning my own identity.
I felt a surge of satisfaction that Jonathan was beside me, but I knew if I let him know I recognized him would destroy my plan.
"Veronica, do you remember who I am?" Jonathan asked me with worry all over his face.
"You're Jonathan, my husband," I said, pretending to study his face.
