I hold Beth's groceries as i walk in to her kitchen.
I set the bags down then i pet her cat.
I finally turn and walk back to the front door knowing Beth and her friends were at bingo night.
Before i could open the door it opens itself.
I look straight in to Asher's eyes.
"Hey" he says while smiling.
I notice he had dimples when he smiled.
"Hi" i reply with a small smile.
"Where are you going?" He asks.
"For a walk" i answer.
"Could i join you for this walk?" He asks.
I smile and nod.
He holds the door open and we walk out together.
"So what have you been doing lately?" I ask him.
"Therapy, it appears i'm mentally unstable" he states.
"How's that?" I ask.
"Well i used to live on a farm, so technology was a little slow, so i had no idea what a tv or a mobile phone was" he explains.
"So the doctors are explaining it to you?" I ask while we walk down the street.
He smiles and nods.
"Alex helps a little" he states.
"How's it going with him?" I ask.
"Fairly well, he keeps mentioning A girl named Kacie a lot" he tells me.
"Now enought about my stuff, what have you been doing?" He adds.
"I think i've told you everything when you were sleeping" i reply.
He smiles and nods.
"But i want to hear you say it all again" he states.
"How's your brother?" He adds.
"He's good, i noticed He's getting more talkative as the days go by" i tell him.
"And your sister?" He asks.
"She's found a liking to Aden, i think its because he lets her ride in his car" i answer.
"What do you remember before you slept?" I ask.
"A farm, my mother and Father, two siblings" he answers.
"I knew Mrs. Anderson before she was a nurse, she's my aunt" he tells me.
"I never heard her tell us that" i murmur.
"Well, she hardly visited, then the fire happened and i could barely look at myself without looking away quickly" he explains.
"A fire?" I ask.
"Yes, it happened...... ten years ago, killed my mother then a year later it was a blank" he states.
"What do you mean blank?" I ask.
"I lean i don't remember any of it, i slipped in to a coma one night" he answers.
"People dont just slip in to comas" i tell him.
"I did, when i woke up...... i found out my sisters died by cancer, they never saw me, you remind me of my sister, Morgan" he says to me.
"How do i remind you of her?" I murmur.
"You have the same eyes" he replies.
"You haven't said a word about your father" i tell him.
He stops smiling and nods.
"He's...... well he wasn't nice to my sisters or mother" he explains.
Me and Asher cross the busy street then keep walking.
"Mrs. Anderson said my dad came to visit me, but he was told to stay away" he tells me.
"I think i remember him" i state as we stop walking.
"He's not aloud to be near us" he says to me.
"So how far should he be away from you?" I ask slowly when i see his father looking at us from behind Asher.
"A block away?" Asher tells me.
"So he shouldn't be standing there?" I ask.
Asher turns around and his father walks up.
"Asher" His father states.
Asher takes a step back and looks at him in surprise.
"We need to talk" he adds.
"No we don't" Asher says quickly.
"Privately" his dad tells him.
He makes a move to grab Asher's arm but Asher yanks it away and accidentally hits me making me stumble back in to the busy road.
"ALEXIS!" I hear Asher yell.
I look at him then at the car that hits me.
