Now Leon was out of the hospital, I had to help him remember me.
"How much further?" He asked me.
"Not much longer." I said, keeping my hands over his eyes.
We turned a corner then I took my hands off his eyes.
"It's the theatre, but why are we here?"
I turned him towards the path. The path where we first met.
"I see a path."
"Not just any path."
I tried to gesture with my hands that there was more to say.
"I really have no idea...."
"Violetta."
"Right, I really have no idea Violetta."
"What? Don't you remember what happened just there?" I asked, replaying the scene in my head.
"No, I'm sorry, I came to see Rafa Palmer here with the Studio, then got on the bus and left. That is all I can remember."
"No, you have to remember more, what happened before you got on the bus?"
"I walked out of the theatre." He said. "Sorry, but I have to go."
"Wait! I have somewhere else to take you."
I led him round the corner to the park.
"Why are we at the park?"
"Don't you remember what happened on that bench?" I asked leading him over and sitting down.
He looked at me with a clueless expression.
"Maybe this will help. Close your eyes."
"What are you going to do?"
"Just close your eyes. Now relax. Picture the most romantic place you can. And now."
I put my hand on his cheek and placed my lips on his. He kissed back!
When I pulled away, I smiled at him.
He smiled back.
"Now I remember you, how could I not? But one thing, I thought my girlfriend was called Ludmilla."
