Just to reassure them that I had a life... even if it was fake. Leaving would convince them that, right? I needed to stop for fuel, but when I went inside to pay I heard... strange noises coming from somewhere in the store.

It was really weird. That's all I remember from that interaction. I forget everything that doesn't seem important... That usually comes back to bite me later when I realise that the information I forgot was important.

Or do I just care so little about everything that I just ignore and forget anything that I deem 'unimportant'. Or is it some form of depression? Or is it something else entirely? Or perhaps it's a little of everything? I wonder...
