Rosemary was knocking on Nico's door again. This time, it was day and Will was there. And she wasn't crying.
"What's up, Rosie?" He asked her, taking her inside. She sat down on Hazel's bed, just like last time.
"I'm starting to-starting to remember things. A lot of things." She told them, her eyes wide.
"What are you remembering? When did this start?" Will asked.
"I was having a dream. I saw people, and I knew it was my family. Then I woke up, and most of my memories were just there. This whole time it felt like-it felt like I was forgetting something, and if I thought about it enough, I would remember. And now that they're there, it's like a memory you forgot, but then remembered all of a sudden."
Nico asked her what she remembered specifically.
"A lot of things. I remember where I was born. Some place in Nevada, I don't know what the town was called. I lived with my mommy, my daddy, big sissy Nora, and big brother Joseph. I have memories of playing with my siblings, being happy, doing chores, my parents reading bedtime stories, and so much more. There are so many memories now, it's making my head hurt." She put her hands on the sides of her head.
"What's the last thing you remember?" Nico asked.
"Um, I was going to go to sleep. Mommy read to me to help me fall asleep, then I did. Next thing I know, I remember being in the Lotus place. It feels like there's a gap in my memory. And when I think of the gap, it's almost there. When I think of it, I feel sad."
Will turned to look at Nico. "I think being out of the Lotus Casino is probably helping her memory. Since she was in there for so long, it makes sense that it took a while for her memory to come back. And the dream triggered her memory to come to the surface of her brain. It makes a lot more sense now. Now it's just the trauma that she doesn't remember."
Nico nodded. "It turned out to be a good idea to wait before we tried anything. Though I think that she's remembered all she can on her own."
"I agree." He looked at Rosemary. "Rosemary, do you want to get the rest of your memories back?"
"Yes." She said instantly.
"Okay, we'll let you sit with these new memories for a little while. Then we can take you to Mr. D to see what he can do to help you."
