"Our hearts beat at the same time, did you know?"

"No, I didn't. Now can you leave me alone? I'm trying to think here, thank you very much."

"Aw c'mon, Y/n!"

"Shut it! I'm trying to help my past self here. I don't even know who you are and I could care less but I want you to leave her alone!"

"God, so demanding. Like that emotionless dude. What was his name again? Eve?"

"His name doesn't matter to you. Leave. Us. Alone."

"Okay, next time y/n, when you're not so moody. Bye-bye!"

New voicemail: play?
Yes.     No. 

"Hey Gabriel, I know it has been a while since we talked but I wanted to know–"

Beep!

"Hey, again. You haven't responded to my last voicemail and I wanted to know if you're still up to that offer–"

Beep!

"God, Gabriel. Why haven't you answered yet? Y/n has been asking about you. Please come back. I'm sorry for what I've done but you know I did it because of our situation. Please call back."

Beep!

"I can't do this. She left because of us. Come home. Now!"

Beep!

"You wanted this. We wanted to be better: to be happy again! We can't fail like last time. Please call back."

Beep!

Scene 1:

[Rain softly dripped on the window sill. Radio noise was heard from the bedroom. 6:20 am, Westville st. The Williams Residence.]

Yolanda: Mom! Where is my uniform for school?

Mrs. Williams: I don't know honey, it's probably still in the laundry basket– find it there!

[Mrs. Williams was cooking breakfast when her husband came into the kitchen and kissed her on the cheek, bidding his goodbyes before leaving to work.]

Yolanda: (Rushing down the stairs.) Found it. It was under my bed again! (She whined)

Mrs. Williams: (giggles) Oh sweety, not again. Come on, hurry before the food gets cold. I'll wake up your brother!

[She soon hurried towards Gordon's room knocking lightly before entering the room.]

Mrs. Williams: (she spoke sweetly.) Honey, wake up. It's time to get ready for school. (She shook him softly.)

Gordon: (yawns) What?

[Gordon looks around the room confused. He then looks at his mother with surprise.]

Gordon: (whimpers) Where am I?

[Mrs. Williams looks at him sympathetically, sadly Gordon was just having another temporary amnesia episode (TGA). Don't worry, Mrs. Williams had a few practices before with Gordon to regain his memories back. He'll get better soon.]

Mrs. Williams: Okay, sweety. Let's just get ready for school okay? Do you feel better now? Nauseous or any headaches?

Gordon: I do have a headache but am not nauseous. Thanks, mum.

Mrs. Williams: You're welcome, sweety.

[End scene]

"Transient global amnesia (TGA) is an episode of confusion that comes on suddenly in an otherwise alert person. This confused state isn't caused by a more common neurological condition, such as epilepsy or stroke.

During an episode of transient global amnesia, a person is unable to create a new memory, so the memory of recent events disappears. You can't remember where you are or how you got there. You may not remember anything about what's happening right now. You may keep repeating the same questions because you don't remember the answers you've just been given. You may also draw a blank when asked to remember things that happened a day, a month, or even a year ago."

"C'mon Dad, just for a little longer, please?" Y/n pleaded to her father. "Okay, we can play a little longer, but after that, we head home for dinner. God knows how worried sick your mom is." Mr. Williams chuckled softly, letting her daughter play a little longer in the park.

A few minutes passed and the sun was about to set. Mr. Williams carried his daughter up on his shoulders giving her a high view of Westville. She giggled freely reaching for the skies while her father kept walking down the street. Soon, they arrived home to Mrs. Williams cooking dinner. She had an apron on and wore a pink dress with white flowers imprinted on it. She turned around and warmly smiled at y/n pinching her cheeks slightly. "How are you darlin'?" She said. "I'm doing alright mom, how about you?" Y/n replied. Mrs. Williams smiled slightly before glancing up at her husband. Both stared at each other before Mrs. Williams glanced at her daughter again saying, "I'm doing alright. How about you go sit for dinner while I and your father talk for a bit, okay?" Soon, y/n nodded and headed to dinner.

Meanwhile, Gordon came down the stairs and greeted her younger sister, "How are ya, sis?"
"I'm great! How about you?" She glanced at her brother.
"I'm okay." He replied softly before looking at Yolanda on the stairs. She came down and ruffled her sister's hair before heading to the kitchen and grabbing a few snacks from the cupboard. Gordon soon followed her up the stairs again before a voice interrupted them, "Arent you guys gonna eat with us? Also, mommy said no snacks before dinner." Y/n scolded.

Gordon faced her with an odd look before rolling his eyes. "Since when did I care about what mom thinks? It's not like she will notice us anyways." He scoffed and walked up the stairs followed by Yolanda apologetically smiling at Y/N before following Gordon.

Silence filled the room. Y/N never saw her brother act like that before. It's strange for him to be so...annoyed?
Yeah, that's a pretty big word for a 6-year-old girl. Either way, It hasn't been always like this until now. Gordon didn't always look at their mom and dad with disgust while Yolanda just stands there by his side ignoring eye contact with anyone. He was kind, creative, and optimistic! Not sarcastic, quiet, and uncaring.

He wasn't like, he isn't like this.
