Till I Met You

Chapter 2

"Jenny please tell me who she really is?I want to know what our connections are.."(I begged my sister..it's been frustrating ever since the accident I can't find any answers to my questions from them..)

I'm Timothy Collins Brandford..I had been in a car accident 15 yrs. Ago when I was 19 and erased all my memories.. we moved from Tennessee to Hollywood in California after the accident and lived with my relatives..it's for me to know and hopefully remember all my relatives again..

I tried to live a normal life again with my family around me everything seemed normal again..I joined the military served 2 tours then settled in the Police Department at  LA Hollywood division I am now a Sargent supervisor on our station..

It would look like I've already moved on with my life but then my father died and we needed to go back to Tennessee and fix everything we have left from him..

I haven't been here since the day after I came from the hospital.. because we moved directly to California..I went to my old room and found a box under my old bed with some pictures of me and a girl when I was younger..before the accident..then my head started hurting..

I saw some memories of me and the girl in the photo we were driving around singing a song..we look so happy I've never been that happy..

Jenny:"Tim please I can't answer that..you know what the doctor said..it's not good for you to force yourself to remember something..it will cause pressure on your brain.."(she replied concerned look..)

Tim:"I don't care what the doctor said..just tell me a name..I won't tell anyone I promise..please jenny help me..I need to find an answer to this.."(I insisted.. something about her really bothers me I have a feeling that I needed to see her again..)

Jenny:"Promise me you won't do anything that's not good for you..I don't want you harmed.."

Tim:"I won't I just want to know who she is..I needed to know who she is.."

Jenny:" she's Lucy..she was your girlfriend before you got into an accident..we don't know where she lives and we don't know how to contact her that time..and everything just happened so fast mom and dad wants to focus on your recovery so I was not allowed to talk about her..I'm sorry..I wish I could help more.."(she confess..and my heart drops..I can't believe I had a girlfriend left behind.. without even closure I just vanished in her life without her knowing what happened..I feel awful..I feel terrible..I feel stupid for not remembering her..on my memory we looked so happy..I wonder where she is now..how is she doing?I bet she hated me..)

I kept digging on the box and found something else that makes me feel horrible..an old with faded lines pregnancy test and it's positive..

Tim:"ooh my god..I have a kid?jenny I have a kid?"(I said quite furious..why did they hide it to me..)

Jenny:"we don't know if she continued the pregnancy..she's only 17 at the time..she was my schoolmate and everytime you pick me up she's always waiting on the bus stop..you liked her and you wait and sit with her everytime you need to pick me until you two got into a relationship..her parents are against it..they are separating both of you..you moved out at 18 and find a job you continue dating her secretly for almost 2yrs.then the accident happened..look I can help you find her but promise me you won't tell mom..her parents almost got you in prison..she will be very upset.."(she narrated..after hearing everything she said I just froze..I don't know what to feel anymore..I thought my life was already in good shape but then this news came to me like a bomb..)

Jenny:"Tim..timmmm..mooommm..help..mooomm.."(jenny screaming with panic after Tim just fainted on the floor holding a photo of her and Lucy..and the pregnancy test with a positive result..)

Their mother and 2 of their cousin came rushing and lift him up..they rushed tim to the hospital worried of what might happen..

After a few hours of tests and observation Tim was confirmed to have a condition similar to panic attack he got overwhelmed with the information and the brain wasn't able to process everything and it blacked out..but as per the doctor all the test was normal..

Tim:"what about my memories?does it mean I can gain them back?"(he asked the doctor talking to his mom and sister on the side..)

Doctor:"it could be possible but I suggest we should take it slow..if this happens again it might get worst..we saw a small swelling on the left part of your brain we might need to take a regular check on it but I prescribed some medication to prevent it from getting worst until we figure out what's happening..it could be good or bad..but we're hoping for the best.."

Tim's POV
I got relief from the word it's possible to get back my memories but it also gets me worried..I'm not sure I could be prepared for whatever I can remember next..after I passed out at my room I woke up in the hospital with my sister,mom and a doctor..)

Mom:"I think you should go back to LA being back here seems not so goood for your health.."(she suggested.. sounds regretful..)

Tim:"not so good for me?mom if I didn't go back here I wouldn't know that I could  possibly have a kid..your grandchild..you knew this and you didn't even tried to tell me..for 15 yrs..I didn't know I got a girlfriend pregnant and just abandoned her and my child..mom how could you do that to me?"(I answered quite furious I still can't believe they choose to hide it from me for a very long time..)

Mom:"we hide it because we're scared for this to happen..look at where it takes you..were not even sure if she continued with the pregnancy her parents are furious if you showed up at their place after what happened you could end up in jail..you got an underage girl pregnant Tim..what did you expect me to do?"

Jenny:"Tim please let's not talk about it for now you heard the doctor we should take it slow..I promise I'll help you find her..just rest for now be stronger to find her..and your child.."(she butted into our growing argument..I tried to calm myself down..I hold on to her promise..I just wish it's not yet too late..if ever I have a child I hope I could still get a chance to see them again and tries to get them back..I hope we could still be a family..I would love that..I hope she can forgive me..)

Tim:"I will look for them and you can't stop me on that mom..what ever it takes me to..they deserve the truth and i need to see them.."(I insisted..she can't stop me..I know they're just concerned about me but I can't let this thing get away..)

Wait for me Lucy..I promise I'll do everything to see you again..and I'll get you back with our child..
