Love.....everlasting? (Chapter 2)

He opened his eyes and looked around, he was lying on a hospital bed, his clothes had been changed, he had IV tubes attached to his hand, he saw a nurse come over to him and shout,"Doctor, he's awake."
"Nurse, what happened to me?" 
"Well, you were brought in by a samaritan from the nearby neighbourhood, you had passed out on the stairs, you have beem diagnosed as slightly amnestic." 
"Slightly what?" 
"Amnestic, meaning you might be having a little bit of amnesia, you might not be able to remember things from the past few days." 
"But, I remember, I met Jenny yesterday only!" 
"And what day was that then?" 
"Sunday." 
"Today is Saturday, my friend, I recommend whoever this Jenny friend of yours is, you call her to come right here, because she might speed up the process of you recovering your memory loss."
"Saturday? I've been in the hospital for 6 days?!!" 
"Yes." 
"You know my name I assume." 
"Yes, its Aryan Vashisth." 
"Where'd you get my name from?" 
"Your ID card, in your wallet." 
"Also, make sure to tell your immediate relatives to show up, pay the bills, makes life for us easier."
"Yeah." 
"Well, these are your medicines..."said the nurse, setting the medicine case on the side desk,"...and your breakfast has been sitting cold on the front desk for quite some time, just try and get up, if you can, I will have to take your leave as I have to attend to other patients." 
Aryan felt weak, he tried to get up, he put his hands on the side of the bed and gathering all the strength, he got up. 
"I'm fine, nurse, thank you, you may go." 
"Thank you,"said the nurse sounding a bit skeptical. 
He noticed that his cellphone was on his side desk, he picked it up and went over to the front desk, unlocking its screen, he pulled the chair which was next to the front desk to sit there and have breakfast, he had a slightly strange feeling going on his head. He looked at the breakfast, a bowl of corn flakes and milk, with two slices of toasted white bread and butter and an apple, calories galore, he opened his phone contacts screen, and scrolled down to J, he slid his finger across the screen and the call was made to Jenny. 
He picked up a spoon, removed the plastic that was covering the bowl of corn flakes and dipped the spoon in it and brought the phone to his ear, he was yet to receive a dial tone, he put the spoon in his mouth and swallowed. Ahh, the taste of corn flakes felt good in his food-ridden mouth, suddenly the sound of a female operator saying,"The phone you are trying to reach, is currently switched off, please try again later." 
Switched off? Why? He tried again, no response. Finishing the corn flakes he picked up one slice of bread, it already had butter on it, placed the bread in his mouth and took a small bite. He opened up his messages, the last messaged from Jenny was dated a few days back as expected, as he had blacked out for a few days, although Jenny had asked him not to message her as she found it a little boring. Her last message read,'At home, please do not come, want to be alone for some time.' He had not replied or had deleted the following conversation because he did not want to be reminded of the same, he cursed his habit because now he did not know what happened next. Only thing he could do was go to her house and talk to her, but he could not do that before getting discharged and also he could not do that before calling her. 
He opened her profile picture and looked at it, her eyes used to do wonders to him and her smile could give him a thousand deaths. Others did not think of her as that beautiful as he thought, he could live by staring into her brown eyes forever. He had been in a relationship with her for almost a month now. She had given him a chance and it was going great. They had even kissed and did stuff in the movie theatre that only couples would do. He just loved caressing her supple breasts with his hand and feel her entire body, she had loved it, her moans and enthusiasm apparent during the entire duration of the 2 and a half hour movie. She had texted later on about the experience being great and had hoped that it would get more passionate. She was actually the one he had ever loved,she was the one he had kissed for the first time in his life, his first kiss, his first relationship, his first everything, she meant the world to him. Jenny, the sexy baby, as he called her. He was madly in love with her and nothing could or would ever change that. 
He decided to go to her home as soon as he was discharged.
