Please Remember me and don't forget me...

Day 47

Tikal's P.O.V
I am excited while also nervous. I am excited as I get to see my friend Amy today. We get to read books together, which is the first time since everything happened. It's her pick today. How it works is that we take turns to pick a book we get two of the same kind from a library and when setting a day and time we read a certain amount of chapters together it's fun- Amy is great at making voices of different characters it's also occasionally very funny. Once finished with those chapters, we usually talk about what we read and guess what happens next. (That's the part I'm good with guessing.)

But I'm also nervous today's the day I'm going to tell her... Tell her that the reason she forgot Sonic was because of me.

I had been looking into all different things such as spells, curses, and remedies I had never known. However, with the gift I had given, she used it to forget Sonic. The candles on the cake were so that she could have one wish which no one knew about- I had thought it was a lovely surprise (Amy always adored surprises.) I knew the pink hedgehog would not ever think anything selfish or harmful for anyone in this situation however... It was harmful to Sonic.

It's funny how things turn out it was the party of Amy that got Sonic and Sally to date, but it was the after effects that ended it.

I remember going out for a walk since it was such a warm day - a week or two after Amy had woken up. I had seen Sonic and Sally and went to approach the pair to greet them, but I hadn't realised they weren't happy with each other.

"I'm just worried about her Sal."
"we all are, but you've left me hanging around because you keep asking me out places and leaving me... Maybe it's not the right time right now."
" We've not been together for long, and you're already giving up?"
" There's just no time for me right now."
"So what now then?..." Sonic's voice was hurt he had been trying to date Sally for a while and now he finally was it must be painful to finally get something you want and not have the ability to keep it...
"This isn't a never Sonic it's a later... right now, it's not possible to commit a relationship... but maybe soon, okay?"

I hadn't even wanted to say hello after that. I didn't want it to appear as though I was eavesdropping.

Anyways back to Amy she had always loved the idea of magic and has these tarot cards she adores so much so I thought it would be so magical to be able to have a wish come true however I didn't expect she'd forget Sonic. It's a big wish too, so it makes sense why she was knocked out. But I thought I mixed something wrong together during that week and kept looking around for a way to resolve it. I had felt so guilty.

It's embarrassing, though I gave her this gift, yet no way would I have expected everything to happen... happen.

Yet I suppose it makes sense. I remember months ago how Amy had been so excited after reading together that she was planning to have a 'date' with Sonic. But he never turned up she was pretty upset but never brought it up or held it against Sonic... She's always been that way sure she can be short tempered but she loves her friends even when they make mistakes she does not hold them accountable and will do her best to forget but I suppose this time she just could not do it anymore.

Maybe it's best if I don't tell her... Maybe it's better I should let her heart decide whether she truly wants to remember Sonic after all that was her wish. I would take that away from her if I pushed to make her remember, so for now, maybe it's better to forgive by forgetting. Less heartache that way.

"Tikal!" The pink hedgehog smiled gleefully, " I've borrowed a new book from the library for us it's a romance, " she sang the word romance happily, showing me the cover of the book. She is happy right now. So happy. And peaceful. Which made me frown as I remembered how unhappy she was with her crush on Sonic previously. It must have felt like she had been ignored and pushed a side like an abandoned toy.
"Hey, are you alright?" Amy asked with a concerned tone.
"Yes, I'm okay. Don't worry..." I shook my head as if to tell my thoughts to go away to enjoy the time I had with my friend in the moment. "Now," I gave a warm smile to the pink hedgehog who has experienced so much, "Tell me more about this book."
