《The life I forgot》


 Awake

    The first thing I heard when I woke was a beeping, that happened every so often. that¡¯s not my normal sounding alarm clock. I leave my eyes closed panicked.


    What do I do? I¡¯m not in my room. I can clearly tell that- my sheets aren¡¯t this thin and my blanket provides more warmth than this one on me. I give it another minute; I don¡¯t hear anyone. Slowly I open my eyes to find my worst fear isn¡¯t happening, I¡¯m not kidnapped. I let out a little laugh- a hospital room. I frown; why am I here?  I can¡¯t remember why I¡¯m here, nor how I got here.

    She looks different stepping into the light, older even. ¡°Mom, mom why am I here?¡±


    ¡±Do you not remember?¡± Her face pales. I come to realize I don¡¯t remember much of anything. I scan my body and see some scrapes on my arm, I lift my hand to feel a wrap on my head. ¡°Ow!¡± I say pressing it. ¡°What happened?¡± I mutter.
