Having amnesia sucks.
That's something very common that you can find in books, see in movies, but when you experience it yourself, at first it seems surreal, it's weird, makes you feel uncomfortable in your own skin.You can't even remember your own name when you open your eyes. When you look in the mirror you see a complete stranger in front of you. Parents? Friends? You can't recognize them.
The things you feel when you first open your eyes are too much and too hard to explain. It makes you feel like completely nothing in this big world.
That's how Min Yoongi felt for a brief second, with all the thoughts and questions running in his head. He was staring at himself in the mirror, touching his face, his mind frantically searching for a memory or something that he can point at and say 'oh, I've seen this!' or 'i remember it!' but that didn't happen for a long time.
Even with the sudden shock that completely took over him a moment after he opened his eyes that day at the small hospital room, something/someone in his head kept repeating the stupid phrase: 'Don't cry over spilt milk'
And he actually listened. That helped him with the sudden change in his life, that made him start his new one and most importantly - it helped him keep his fears away from him. Fears, too scary for the boy to say out loud. So he buried them deep down instead.
It wasn't easy, not at all. But eventually, after a whole month in that hospital, after all the family photos, all the visits from friends, all the stories he heard about his past, things seemed to get better.
Yet there was something bugging him, something missing, something he wasn't sure he'll ever be able to remember again.
