"Hi I'm Autumn" I said.
"Nice to meet you" Colton said and got up and walked over to me, he reached out his hand for me to shake it. I let go of my crutch and shook his hand whilst trying to keep my balance. Colton was very good looking from my judgment, he was the nicest look guy I have seen since I can remember. His eyes were a bright blue, his hair was a dull brown colour and it swept across his forehead. He was taller than me and muscly but he wasn't that muscly that he was bulk but he wasn't lanky.
Suddenly dr Irwin appeared in the door way and said "Hey I have see that you two have meet why don't I show you to the dinning room and we can get you some food to eat, I'm sure you or hungry". We followed him down the the several long corridors into a big room with lots of table and chairs. If was crowded and noisy full of different people from different walks of life, and from different nations.
"It's very crowded in her" Colton said.
"Yes it is very full tonight, there was a car crash in this morning. This way, I'll show the way to yet your food" dr Irwin said. We followed him through the crowd of people. I was sticking close to dr Irwin's side. I just didn't feel comfortable here. It was loud and half of the people didn't seem like they needed to be in the hospital, they looked fine. We walked closer to a buffet and the smell was amazing there seem to be every single food in the world, but I was sure that there was more I just didn't remember them. Dr Irwin handed us each a tray and place a plate on it and said "here you go, go choose what you want to eat". I just looked at him and looked at the food. "I don't know what I like to eat or if I have any allergies" I said.
"Well from your medical record you don't have any allergies to food but I don't know what you like" he said. I didn't know what to do what to eat then Colton suggested "why don't you just have a little bit of everything".
"Ummm ok I guess" I replied.
"I'll take you around and show or all of my favourites" he said.
"Thanks" I said and smiled at him.
"So how long have you been awake for?" I ask Colton.
"Um two or three days, not that long, don't worry you will slip into things around here pretty easily. Not remembering anything is kind cool in way its like every thing is new to you in the world and every day you discover new things. It's also like you have a clean plate no one knows you, not even you. Just think about it you can be anyone you could change your personality completely if you wanted to" he replied.
"Yes but don't you think who you were in before would seep through into hiw you are now, and when you get your memories back that you would go back to how you were before" I said convinced that you can't escape who who really are.
"Yes that may be true but it also it may not be" he said putting some more food onto my plate.
"But I don't think that you can escape your past and that may be effecting you now even if you don't remember" I added trying to convince him.
"Yes but you have only just woken up there is a whole world out there and how you explore it will change who you are as" he said and he walked over to a table. I sat down across from him looking down at my plate.
"What's this" I asked pointing at a piece of something on my plate.
"Oh that is pizza" he replied.
"And this" I said pointing to a different piece of food.
"That's some garden salad. Ok I'm just going to tell you everything that's on your plate. This is garlic bread and that's a different type of salad called a Chinese salad" he said pointing to every different piece of food. Ok I told my self take a bite of everything and see what you like. First I toke a bit of the garlic bread I liked that, secondly I took a bit of the Chinese salad I didn't like that I liked everything else on my plate. After we finished our meals we walked back to our room.
While we walked back to our room making small talk about if he had remembered anything yet, he had only remembered how to read and his rights and lefts. When we got back to our room Colton said that he was going to have a shower.
While he was in the bathroom I noticed something on my bed I went over and to look there was some clothes on the bed with a note on top of them. I couldn't remember how to read so I asked Colton when he was out of the shower. He said that the nit said that these cloths were called pyjamas and you were them when you go to sleep. The note also said to go and have a shower and ask Colton to get the water temperature perfect.
"Ok follow me" he said and he walked into the bathroom and turned on the taps.
"There you go he, the perfect temperature. When you have finished turn the taps this way and when you have finished you put this towel around you to try yourself" he said and pointed to the wall. I nodded and he left them room, I took off my clothes and stood under the water. The feeling of having water run over your body is amazing. I rubbed my hand over my arms and legs. When I had finished I turn the taps towards the wall and sure enough that water stopped. I sept out of the shower and wrapped a towel around myself. After I had dried my self I put on the pyjamas and left the bathroom.
I walked across the room into my bed and got under the covers. I closed my eyes to go to sleep when Colton said "goodnight Autumn".
I looked over at him and said "goodnight Colton". I closed my eyes once more the. Colton spoke again and said "I hope the no one died in my bed". Laughed it was the first time that I laughed it felt amazing better than the shower "me to Colton me to" I replied. Maybe Colton was right maybe this can be different and you can have a brand new personality, and with that thought in my head I slowly drifted to sleep.
