"I knew you would. I haven't seen you in a month." She said to me. I looked away from Moniece to her.

"A month? It's been 10 months and a couple of days Navia. You ghosted me when you found out you were pregnant." I said to her trying to jog her memory. She looked at me confused and sat down like this was some big news.

"I have a baby?" She asked me. I nodded confused. What was wrong with her? Why was she acting like this? I looked at Moniece who looked back at me without a word.

"She's about 3 or 4 months old. You love her." I said to her. Navia smiled, but she didn't seem to be catching on at all. I sat on the desk and looked back at Moniece. "What's going on? Why is she acting like this? Did she bump her head?" I asked her. Moniece looked through a file on her computer and then open up her cabinet full of files before pulling one out with Navia's name on it.

"It doesn't say. But she was escorted here in an ambulance with a police escort as well. She obviously doesn't remember that or she would have told you." She said to me before closing the file and looking towards Navia as she looked between us curiously. Navia looked so spaced out.

"Do you remember my name? You came and saw me before you got sent in." She said to her softly. She scrunched up her face and shook her head. The look of concern was evident on her face as she looked back at Moniece.

"I don't remember anything. I didn't even know I had a baby until now.." she sad as she looked at me worried. "Is she okay? Where is my baby?" She asked me.

"She's with your mom. You dropped her off a day or two ago-"

"Before I tried to kill myself?" She asked me. I clenched my jaw shut. I had no clue how anything went.

"I don't know Navia. I wasn't there. I haven't been there for a while." I said to her. It was hard telling the truth to her even if she didn't remember, I couldn't lie to her. I didn't want to hurt her even more. Especially if she suddenly got her memory back and called me a liar for it.

"Why? Aren't we together?" She asked me as her voice broke. I looked up at her face. Her nose was a bright red and I knew she was about to cry so I looked away.

"No. We're friends. We used to be close, but not anymore. We dated back in middle school though." I said to her. She seemed to be grasping at straws in her brain so I pulled out my phone to show her certain pictures of us when we were younger.

"But what about when you told me you loved me? Was that all a lie?" She asked me as tears ran down her face. I clenched my jaw. I looked back at Moniece and she didn't want to acknowledge the elephant in the room, but I'm pretty sure she was thinking it.

"I did, but that was so long ago. We both moved on. You have a girlfriend now." I said to her. She shook her head in disapproval.

"What about Leah? Isn't she yours?" She asked me. My head turned to hers so fast, whiplash set in immediately after.

"I don't- I- no. That's not possible. Things happened to you and I wasn't there to stop it." I said to her as she cried full on tears, trying to hold on to memories we never had together.

"That's not true. You were there. You were always there. You told me so." She said to me crying. I looked at her dumbfounded. Had I called her drunk before or something? Was I in over my head? Did she know what really happened from someone else? I thought as she looked at me. Hurt in her eyes.
