A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

After that night, Emily and Jacob seemed to sink into a strange state. Neither of them mentioned what had happened, and acted as if nothing had occurred between them.

Though they were no longer engaged in a cold war of separation, and they lived together as usual, their hearts seemed to have been split. A vast ocean spanned between them, and like ships at sea, they drifted apart.

Even Mr. Barefoot, who usually devoted himself to his studies of herbal-medicine and paid little attention to anything else, realized that something was wrong with them and couldn't help but have a chat with Jacob.

"You are a man, but sometimes you should give in when you have a row with your woman, or you will regret your insistence later. Emily's a good girl. You won't find another woman like her ever, if you lose her," he said concernedly.

A bitter smile formed on Jacob's lips as he replied helplessly, "You don't understand what happened between us."

Mr. Barefoot puffed on his pipe and shook his head, "Okay, I don't have a wife and children. Of course I don't understand the minds of young people like you," he said.

In truth, both Mr. Barefoot and Jacob didn't understand why Emily became so angered. 'If only I could still remembered the past. I would have found an easy way out of this problem. Maybe the man Emily loves is the past Jacob, who can easily read her mind and coax her into happiness, but now I'm Bear. I'm a rural man, and know nothing about her, ' Jacob thought to himself.

He suddenly asked, "Old man, can you give me a hand?"

"What?" Mr. Barefoot was confused.

"I want to regain my memory. Do you have any suggestions?" he asked eagerly.

"No." Mr. Barefoot replied frankly, as he didn't want to sell Jacob false hope, "It's up to you. No one can help you but yourself. Take your time and try to get your memories back. Even if you don't remember anything, it doesn't have to affect your life."

"I can't wait anymore. I need to remember who I was, now!" He insisted firmly. His eyes burned with a strength of conviction, and his desires to regain all his memories about Emily. There was a hole in his heart, and he needed to fill it to the brim.

Only in this way, could he once again become a whole person, the real Jacob.

"It depends on your own efforts, but remember, don't do anything silly." Mr. Barefoot gave him some last advice.
