Broken Twins

Alexithymia

Max stared at Jennifer in amazement. So far, any woman who touches him, has never made Max's body react. But only Jennifer is a woman who is able to make her body always tense and her hormones increase. Even Janeth, who claimed to be his fiancé, had never had that much influence.

"I want to kill you."

That one sentence slipped from Jennifer's mouth. Max realizes that he is a terrorist, and even Janeth is the same. But since he woke up in the hospital Max had never killed or hurt anyone. Could it be that in the past Max has killed many people and one of the victims' families is Jennifer.

"Did I do something wrong?" Max asked.

The question made Jennifer laugh strangely. Jennifer is seen laughing at Max's stupidity but also feeling deep sadness.

"You know why I still don't kill you?" asked Jennifer.

Max shook his head.

"I will kill you after you remember everything. Your memory returns. That's when I will kill you." Jennifer sighed. Her beautiful eyes sparkled. It seemed that the wound Max had made in Jennifer's heart was so deep.

"I will not let you go. I will help you remember everything after that your death will come," Jennifer said with red eyes and nose. It seemed like Jennifer was struggling to keep her tears from falling in front of Max.

Look at Jennifer's attitude. Max was very sure that his fault was very big on the beautiful woman in front of him. And somehow Max cared so much and wanted to see Jennifer laugh. It seems that Max is not willing to see Jennifer's tears fall.

"Why do you always have a straight face. You've always been like that!" Jennifer shouted, pointing hard at Max's right cheek. Warm red liquid immediately ran down Max's nose.

"I... Alexithymia. I don't know emotions very well. I'm sorry," Max said. He found out about himself after reading his medical report in the hospital's private database. Even though Max lost his memory all his personal data was in the hospital. So that Max can know the name and address of the house. Apart from that Max has no other data other than the fact that Max has no family. The job is also just as a writer and the rest is really beyond expectation. He is a terrorist member.

"What? Alexithymia?" Jennifer looks frustrated.

Max saw the look on Jennifer's face. As a person who does not understand emotions naturally. Max learns to judge emotions from expressions, social language and even human body gestures. Max knew that Jennifer's facial expression was a 'proper' expression. As if to say it is appropriate that Max is a human who has committed a mistake or sin and it is natural to be punished.

"You are indeed a monster!" Jennifer slapped Max. This time harder. So Max felt the gums in his teeth bleed. There was thick blood as Max spat to the side.

"If I did bad things to you and you want my life in exchange, then I'm willing. Just kill me whenever you want," said Max.

Suddenly Jennifer smacked Max's lips and wiped the blood from Max's nose. Jennifer's attitude confused Max. The woman seemed to really like Max but also hated Max.

"Were we close too?" Max asked curiously.

Jennifer didn't answer. But that facial expression could be said to paint a bitter memory of the past. Seeing Jennifer's current expression, Max's chest ached much more. Max felt tight, but didn't know why.

"You will remember all your mistakes in the past. I will also make you fall in love. Really fall in love, then I will kill you. Just like you did to me," said Jennifer.

Mac was like being hit by a boulder. The exact sentence you did to me means that Jennifer loved Max very much before Max killed the woman or hurt Jennifer's feelings. If Max had a choice, Max would probably choose to spend his entire life with Jennifer over any other woman. So why did Max kill Jennifer?

Jennifer moved the handcuffs into Max's hands instead. That way Max could go to the bathroom and eat. But still can't go. Because the security of the secret room can be relied on. Ranging from surveillance cameras to infrared that triggers a sound in handcuffs if it crosses the room line. It seems that J had deliberately recommended the apartment.

"Enjoy the rest of your life. I will be very kind and like I said from today onwards you will fall in love with me." After saying that Jennifer stepped away and closed the door to the secret room.

Max immediately got up and headed for the bathroom. After that he saw the food on the tray. Max immediately ate and the taste of the food made Max remember something. Like a shadow of the past with a woman.

Max didn't know who the woman was. But the memory made Max remember Janeth. That woman must be looking for Max right now. In two days, Max has his first task, which is to kill someone. Max knows it's better to be in Jennifer's captivity than to be among the stranger terrorists. Reporting them to the police is also useless.

Max sees a cupboard. Once opened there are quite a few clothes. But with handcuffs on both hands, putting on clothes was impossible. So Max chose to wear shorts. After that Max sat in front of the bookshelf. To pass the time waiting for Jennifer to come with revenge, anger and love, Max decides to read a book.

In captivity Max also plans to reflect on everything that happened. Because his little heart was convinced that he was not a terrorist. Even though Max is an expert in many things. Max was convinced both then and now that he wasn't a terrorist.

Max finds a newspaper clipping. It turned out to be an old newspaper clipping. After opening it turns out to be someone's record about the murder of Steven's family. There were Janet and Jennifer's names. Max thought he would find a clue about her if he knew Janeth's biography. Seeing the note, Max immediately put it away in a safe place. He was afraid that Jennifer would find it and take it away.

Not long after, the door to the secret room was opened again. Jennifer came in to get the dirty dishes.

"It turns out that you really don't know emotions. People who are about to die shouldn't eat this much. But never mind, I will make you happy. After that I will give you pain," Jennifer said and left again.

Max breathed a sigh of relief that Jennifer didn't suspect anything. That way Max can read the findings of someone's notes who don't know who. It's definitely not Jennifer. Because the incident happened when Max and Jennifer were little. So it is impossible if the note belongs to Jennifer. It is possible that the apartment belonged to someone else before.
