"I made on mistake loosing my daughter im not going to make it again." she said and Chris nodded. "But there is something you should know before you go see her." Sam said and she had a sad expression.

"What?" Chris asked.

"When i found her she had no memory of somethings. Somethings came back but others didn't." she said and Chris looked at her.

"Wait so she might not remember me?" Chris asked and Sam nodded. Chris heart fell into his stomach.

He knew something was going to happen but not this. The possibility of her not remembering him scared him.
