I'm writing some angst today, because my life is nuts right now, and my depression is becoming more of a mess, along with the many other me tail illnesses I have.

Apologies in advance.

TUBBO'S POV:

Recently, something tragic and unexplainable happened...

Ranboo somehow lost all of his memory..
He doesn't remember me, or Tommy, or Michael..

It really does hurt me to see it all like this.

We're still desperately trying to figure out how it happened, because obviously Ranboo doesn't remember a thing about it.

I've been working hard to regain his trust.. and I've been trying to explain everything to him..

My poor endermen...
I've sobbed for hours on end.

He remembers nothing about any of us, especially me..
He has no clue about our relationship or our kid..
It'a horribly dreadful.

But I'm not giving up hope.
So I'm working with him a little more each day..
Trying to jog his memory, trying to teach him about our life..

So, I woke up...
Sighing heavily as I remembered that Ranboo no longer slept by my side.

I went to the living room and say him sitting on the couch in silence, calmly looking around.
I gave a forced smile..

"G'morning, Big guy.. Did you get any sleep?"
I asked softly,

He stayed silent but hesitantly nodded a little.

I softened my smile a tad,
"That's good, I'm glad to hear that..."
I said softly, glancing  at the ground.

I slowly and carefully sat down next to him on the couch, he scorched farther away, clearly alarmed by me..
That of course made my heart ache.

I sighed and rubbed my arms in comfort.
"No need to be frightened.. I'm not gonna hurt you are anything like that."
I assured him.

He very timidly and hesitantly loosened up.

I gave him another tired smile,
"So.. Let's see our progress this morning.. Can you tell me what your name is..?"
I asked softly.

After a few minutes of hesitation, he muttered a little something out..
"...R-R-..R-Ran..."

I perked up,
"Hm?.. Yes! Ran, Boo.. Your name is Ranboo! Good job, Big man..! You're doing really well.."
I said happily clapping my hands a little.

I swore I saw a tiny subtle smile form in his lips..

Tears stung at my eyes..
I tried to quickly hold them back, but the sight of it all was too much..
A few tears rolled down my cheeks as I looked away and sniffled,

He looked at me with confusion..
Suddenly, he held my cheek with his hand..
Curiously wiping at the tears falling from my eyes with his thumb..

I was in shock but it also made me miss my husband even more..

He thought for a moment, before perking you slightly and stammering,
"..S-Sad..?"

I gave him a sincere look...
After a few more sniffles I sighed.

"..Yes, I-I am a little bit sad, Ranboo."
I said honestly.

He seemed to be studying me silently,
He noticed my fiddling with my hands..

Then he gently took my hand and had my spread my fingers out..
Then he mirrored my hand with his quite larger one...

He pressed our hands together and I smiled from astonishment and nostalgia..
This was mine and Ranboo's little thing we used to do..

More tears ran down my cheeks rapidly.

"..I-.. Ranboo... Thank you."

I miss him.

I love him so much.
