The Billionaire's Past

CHAPTER 37

"I'm glad you still remember me." Aliyah replied.

Before Atif can type his reply he receives another message from Aliyah.

"Please help me Atif, I just want to know what happened to my father after the ship sank. Have you

heard any news about him? I know it's too long ago but I just regain my memory right now. My memory

was lost after that incident. That's why I was not able to inform him that I survived." Aliyah said.

Atif was so confused this time, that’s why he is asking himself;

"What is she talking about?"

Atif types his reply.

“I’m sorry but I don't know who your father is. You never mentioned him to me when we were chatting

before." Atif said.

Aliyah feels sad when she reads the message of Atif.

Because it means that he remembers her as Aliyah and never recognizes her as Haya.

"Never mind. Forget it. The message is not for you. It’s just wrong sent. I'm sorry." Aliyah replied.

"Oh don't you worry. It's okay." Atif replied.

When Aliyah didn't reply Atif decided to go back on reading the business proposal that he is studying

this time.

Aliyah regretted that he already blocked Almir and said that she will not apply for the job that he is

offering.

Unknowingly that Almir is Also Atif.

Aliyah wants to unblock Almir thinking that it's another way so that she can go back to her own country,

but Aliyah feels shy this time and didn't do so.

She is thinking any other way on how she can go back to her own country when he remembers the

man that bought all the fish yesterday.

Aliyah remembers the agency that the man mentioned yesterday. He said that the agency is located in

the city where Aliyah is working. The agency is hiring overseas workers going to Bosnia and

Herzegovina.

Aliyah makes up her mind that she will apply there as soon as she goes back to the city tomorrow.

Aliyah went back to the city to go to work again without mentioning to Elsa or any of Elsa's family

members that she regained her memory.

One month later…

Aliyah was finished applying for a job.

She will fly to Bosnia and Herzegovina before this weekend.

Aliyah didn't inform her grandmother Elsa that she's done applying for a job which is located in Bosnia.

Elsa didn't know about her flight.

What Elsa knew is Aliyah was transferred to the sister company of her present job that is located in

another city.

Aliyah said to Elsa that she cannot go home to their hometown just like before because the schedule of

her work is different this time.

But the truth is she cannot go home because she will go back to her own country.

Because Aliyah remembers all the things that had happened in her life there in Bosnia and

Herzegovina before, she decided to go home secretly.

Aliyah remembers the man who bought the fish. He is Seth. Aliyah and Seth are of the same age. She

knew Seth because her mother and Seth mother are friends. She knew that the father of Seth is a

private detective working for Haris.

And Aliyah guessed that maybe Seth is also a private detective now at present like his father.

Aliyah knew that Seth had something to do with Haris. She thinks that maybe the old man is helping

her father to find her. And Seth was there the last time because he is getting information about her and

wants to confirm if she is really Haya. And maybe they are planning to send her back home.

Aliyah remembers that she is living in her father's cousin's house. She remembers how her Aunt Selma

treated her badly. She doesn't want to go back to that house.

Because of that Aliyah decided not to inform anyone that she regain her memory. She doesn't want to

go back to her old life in her Aunt Selma's house.

Aliyah knew that she cannot stay at her father's house because her stepmother doesn't like her around

in the house.

Aliyah decided not to inform anyone that she will fly back to Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Aliyah just wants to know what happened to her father after that accident that is why she will go back

there. She will know it secretly.

Aliyah is not ready to face them again and swear she will not go back to her Aunt Selma's house again.

Aliyah knew that Haris would not notice that she applied for a job in his company. Aliyah used a

different identity this time to hide that she is Aliyah or Haya.

Aliyah used a different name. Also she makes changes in her physical appearance so that she can

hide from them. She copied the appearance of the Asian woman. She colored her hair like the hair of

women living in Asia. Her looks can’t deny the fact that she is a European so she makes herself look

Asian.

Now she can be mistaken as Korean or Japanese.

With that look she cannot easily be noticed or recognized by any of them when she goes back to her

own country.

And she uses the name- AMAYA.

Aliyah is a little bit excited to see Atif again.

Way back, even though she never talked to Atif again since the day she left him at the house of Haris.

Aliyah watches Atif from a distance whenever she misses her little friend.

And Atif didn't know about it.

At present, since the day Aliyah unblocked Atif they continue chatting with each other.

But Aliyah never revealed to Atif that she is also Haya.

Aliyah is in deep thoughts about Atif when she received a message from Atif.

"How are you?" Atif message.

"I'm fine." Aliyah replied.

"Sorry if I was not able to chat for a few days.” Atif replied.

"It's alright .I know you're busy." Aliyah said.

"Ha-ha... As always." Atif replied.

"So where are you the last few days?" Aliyah asked.

“On a business trip. And then checking the new perfume factory that is owned by my grandfather. How

about you?" Atif replied.

"At work." Aliyah said.

“Aliyah do you want to work here?” Atif asked.

“I don't know. Are you encouraging me to go there?" Aliyah replied.

“Yes." Atif replied.

"Why?" Aliyah asked.

"Because I want to see you in person for us to get to know each other better.” Atif said.

"Ha-ha. You know my life revolves around here for many years. I like my new family and my life here at

present but I will go back there for a while just to see what happened to my father after we met that

tragic accident on the passenger cruise ship going here in Asia. If you want to see me go there at your

old dwelling place at the same time on the same day of the week. Just like the old times. You can find

me there. “Aliyah replied.

Aliyah replied like that because she wants to know if Atif will remember her as Haya.

Because it seems to her that Atif already forgot her.

“Aliyah you're wrong sent again? “Atif asked when he received the message of Aliyah.

Atif just thought that Aliyah's message is not for him. He thought that she had just made a mistake in

sending that message.

"No.You really want to see me? If yes, do what I say." Aliyah replied.

Atif was puzzled when he read Aliyah's replies.

Atif thinks that Aliyah is just kidding so he just replied like this;

“Okay. I will but will you please tell me where that place is? "Atif replied.

“See me at the fast food at the corner of the city street near the footbridge." Aliyah replied. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

"Ha-ha. Okay! "Atif replied.

Atif laughs at his reply because he thinks that Aliyah is just really kidding.

Their conversation ended when somebody came to Atif's office to talk about business.

As time goes by Atif's feelings for Aliyah grow deeper. Atif knew that he really likes Aliyah. He is sure of

his feeling that he is slowly falling in love with Aliyah.

But not Aliyah. Aliyah knew that what she feels for Atif before is just for deepest friendship. Yes maybe

she loves Atif but as a friend. It is clear to her this time that she is not falling for Atif. What she feels is

just that Atif is important to her and she cares about him as a friend just like before long time ago.

Sad to say that their feelings is not mutual.
