" Allison!" I was awoken from my thoughts when someone right in front of me started to yell. When I looked up I saw a woman looking at me with a big smile on her face. Right my name was Allison, I should really try to remember this. Not really sure about what to do and not wanting to be rude, I smiled back at her. "Allison, it's great seeing you again! It's been so long since we last saw eachother! How long has it been? A few years at least!" The lady said while sitting down in the chair in front of me. It's obvious we once were really good friends. "You haven't changed a bit since our college years, still the long red hair and those beautiful piercing big blue eyes. Oh my, when I think back at those times, we really had a lot of fun back then." apparently I've been to college. The woman smiled even more, you could tell she was thinking back at something that had happened in her past. I wonder what it's like, remembering things." Oh well, we'll talk about that some other time! How have you been?" she asked full of enthusiasm. I didn't really know what to answer. It's obvious we once were really good friends. But then again I never even knew I went to college before this meeting, nor do I know this woman.
"Eum.." things like this, meeting people, still was the hardest thing for me. How do you tell someone that knows so much about you that you can't remember them? I look at the woman and see she's looking at me with confusion in her eyes, which is normal. "I'm sorry, I can't remember you, or what we did in our college years." The woman looked at me even more confused. "You see, I've lost my memory and I can't remember anything form the past." She looked at me with big eyes and her mouth fell open a bit when hearing that.
A little bit uncomfortable I shuffled in my chair. Even though I've went through this a few times already it didn't make me any less uncomfortable, I hated moments like this. Without waiting for a reply I began to tell my story. "I woke up on October the 3rd without any knowledge or memories from what had happened before that day. I didn't know where was, who I was, what my life was like, I didn't know anything. No one knows why this has happened to me or how, they don't even know if my memories will ever come back or not." This was the short version of what had happened, the full version was a lot more emotional and hectic. When I had woken up I was in complete panic and confusion. Next to me there had been lying a man that I didn't know and who claimed to be my boyfriend of five years. He also had no idea what was happening at the time. Eventually he called the doctor, which then called the hospital. This was the beginning of many questions and tests, with no answers.
After a long silence the woman finally opened her mouth to say something, but nothing came out. She frowned a bit and you could tell she was thinking, and choosing her words carefully. "So, you don't remember anything from before that day?" I shook my head in response. "And the doctors don't know how this could have happened?" Again I shook my head. "How the hell is that possible! How can they not know how it could have happened! They should educate there doctors more properly! It's a disgrace!" A smile appeared on my face, I get why we were good friends in the past.
"Oh my god! You don't know who I am. I'm Zinaida, we are ..." Her expression changed to a sad smile. I wonder why.
"Sorry, we were best friends since we went to college together. We also lived together for a while, before you and Luke got serious." I guess Luke was telling the truth that morning, we really were in a relationship. The expression on her face still expressed sadness. Could something have happened between us that made us no longer be friends? "Were?" I ask carefully. "Yes, a few years ago we had a big falling out about your brother and since then we didn't really keep in touch anymore."
I have a brother.
