That evening, all of us (including Josh) went to Tom's Diner for a bite. Inside has that 60's vibe with checkered floor pattern, a jukebox, and pictures of old Hollywood celebrities. But at the same time, it's weird coming to a place where you worked for months but have no memories of it. We are seated at a booth talking and ordering food when the manager Billy came up to us.

"How is everything?" he asked with a smile.

"Everything is great," Josh responded.

As Billy went to his office, I couldn't help but wonder about my resume. Maybe it will help me remember, "I'll be right back," I said. I walked over to Billy's office knocking on the door. "Come in," I hear him say, walking in Billy is on the computer doing whatever "Sorry to bother you, Billy," I mumbled.

"Please, call me B.B," he chuckled "How may I help you?"

"Umm...I was wondering if I can see a copy of my resume?"

"Sure thing," he nodded as he goes through his desk drawer "How are you holding up?" he asked while passing me my resume.

"I'm managing," I shrugged.

B.B left the room while I began reading my resume. On it, it says I worked at H&M, which, in this case, I do remember due to it being my summer job in Canada. However, Forever 21 is a job I don't know as well as some diner, both being in Philadelphia. Then, B.B came back in, "When do you want back to work?" I asked curiously, "No rush," he assured me.

Suddenly, Jake burst in relief to have found me. "Ohad, you were gone for a while," he sighed. He hugged me tightly. "I just came to look at something," I admitted.

"What is it?"

"It's not a big deal," I fake smiled.

"Come on, tell me you know you can" Jake hugged me again.

"Fine, it's my resume."

He looked stunned at what I just said: "And how do you feel?"

"Relieved, there's another piece of memories."

We both headed back to our booth, rejoining the guys. Danny gave me a 'welcome back kiss' on the cheek while sitting next to him. As we finished our food, we walked back to the apartment only to find a limo parked in front of the building. "I gotta get back to Philadelphia," sighed sadly. He pulled me in for a tight hug with a peck on the head "Come back to Philadelphia with me, you will be safe there" I begin to chuckle a bit for not understanding what he is saying "Safe from what?" Josh opened his mouth to respond but decide against it, "I'll be fine," I added. It seemed he didn't want to let me go or leave, but I think we both know we will see each other again "Please stay safe and call me anytime and whatever you need."

"I will."

With that, Josh went inside the back of his limo, putting the window down, looking at all of us. Without saying goodbye, he says, "See you soon," and off the limo goes.
