Slight fully I open my eyes and look around very confused. Where am I? When I try to recall anything to find a clue that might tell me where I am I realize that I remember nothing. Everything is blank. Who am I? Anxious I try to recall something, even if it's super tiny. 

I'm beginning to hyperventilate and I have no clue how come I know nothing. Did I hit my head and lost my memories? Do I have amnesia? I don't want to know nothing, I want answers. I want to know why I forgot everything. I want to know who I am. 

Will I be able to get my memories back? A simple knock on the door catches my attention which makes me look at the door. "Yes?" I answer a little quiet. A head peaks out the door opening and I see a blond boy around the eighteen years old in the door opening.

 "Skyler! You are awake! I'm so happy you slept for a whole week straight! I was so worried about you after you got unconscious after that fight with Jake." With a strange face I look at him, do I know him? Who is he? Is he my brother? "I'm sorry, but who are you exactly?" His face turns pale while he storms inside and comes to the bed where I'm sitting in and sits next to me where he takes my hand. 

"Don't you remember me? I'm your.." He pauses "boyfriend..." Confused I look at him. "Boyfriend you say?" Trying to remember him, but without success. "No... This can't be true, you can not have forgotten me! Please Skyler don't joke with me. I know you love jokes but please don't joke with me now..." With a pale face he looks at me while I don't know what to do. He really is my boyfriend?

 I have slept a whole week and lost my memories? No, no this can't be true... I feel a knit in my stomach which makes me not know what to say, but after some thinking I begin to speak. "Sorry, but I am really not joking around. I really don't know who you are I am sorry." Slightly he holds my hand with more pressure.

 His face tells me everything, an anxious face that doesn't want to believe what was just said. His grip on my hand is making me uncomfortable so I take his hand and take it of mine. Unnoticeable I go a bit to the left, but without success he knows it which makes me see his pain through his eyes. "I'm really so but I really don't know you... I don't know anything. Who am I and where am I? What happened to me?" With a sad face he looks me deeply in the eyes while so many questions are still going around in my head.

 "If I had known that you would have been hurt I would never have told you to come with me.." He murmurs just loud enough for me to hear, but than looks at me more serious. "It's unfortunate that you forgot everything." He reaches out for my hand again, but I pull away. Again I see the pain in his eyes, you can even see he has watery eyes because of what I have said. 

I nod my head slightly and not even a second later he begins to speak again. "First of all is your name Skyler and I am Andrew your boyfriend. We have been together for about six years now. You had a sister but she died in a car accident seven years ago. 

You live together with me in my appartement here. We are around the same age and are both eighteen years old. Also.." "Also what?" "Well we are in the mafia." "What?! The mafia you say? We work in the mafia? No this can't be right, why would we?" Totally upset I'm thinking of what to do. Do I really work for the mafia? But why? 

"I thought you would react that way, but I can explain it to you." "You better do! I don't even know why I would even work in the mafia when it's so dangerous! Did I get into a fight while working which made me sleep for a week? Is that the reason why I don't remember anything? I need answers!" Overwhelmed he tries to help me calm down and when I'm more calm he continues. 

"You would go in debts because you couldn't find a proper job to pay everything off. Your mother died young because of cancer and your father killed himself... You couldn't raise your sister on your own since she still needed to go to school. Normally you also needed to go to school, but since someone needed to pay the fees of the place where you both lived and the school you decided to stop school and work instead. The only problem was that you weren't able to find any job because you didn't have a diploma. On one night in your most desperate time I found you back in the dark streets outside in a small streets where most of the time dangerous people reside. You were crying in a corner so I approached you asked what was wrong. Eventually I brought you and your sister to my place and you began working with me in the mafia. Your sister didn't know you work in the mafia and she was happy that you have found work. Sadly enough a few years later she died, the time when we were together for almost a year. I was so devastated to see you crying every night for your little sister."
