Approach, appear
Daddy, I'm alone
'Cause this house don't feel like home"

"The hardest part is waking up in the morning, remembering what you were trying to forget last night." -Unknown

I woke up feeling a little happy. I know that having amnesia isn't a good thing, but I had people who care for me and about me. But what I really wanted to know, is where my parents are.

I took a quick shower, then did my hair in just a high pony. I got dressed in high waisted shorts, a Why Don't We t-shirt, and black slip on Vans.

I walked downstairs to see almost everyone awake. Looks like only Skylar and Dane were still upstairs. I walked to the kitchen where everyone else was and stood by Casey. He put his arm around me and whispered a quick 'good morning'.

Everyone was unusually quiet.. this has me at nothing but confused. I looked around at everyone who was weirdly avoiding my gaze.

"H-how do you know that? Who told you?" Jack stuttered.

"I remember. After Jonah lied I had a little flashback." I said bluntly.

Zach smiled, "You got a memory. Maybe you'll get more! And you could be the real Milan we knew a couple days ago!"

I laughed, "Maybe."
