Dr. Harding thinks that I'm not making any progress like this. All I do is sleep all day and avoid going out because everything irritates me now. I don't have the energy to wake up and get ready for the day - every single task seems too difficult to complete. I'm tired all the time.
I'm tired to the point where I don't know if I will be able to get back up. Pick myself up. I'm trying to hold on to the fact that you will wake up and give me that gorgeous smile of yours and everything will be alright in my life again.
Because I know you love me and you will never leave me.
Oh wait, I forgot to tell you something. I learnt a new word today. It's called Athazagoraphobia. Tough word it is.
"It means the fear of being forgotten or ignored by someone whom you strongly care about."
And I hate to say this, but I actually fear that you will forget about me when you wake up. The doctors say that there's a high chance of you losing your memories due to the harsh impact of the accident on your head.
Please don't make my fear come true. I won't be able to handle it.
Please Ali.
I slam the diary shut, and close my eyes tight as the tears continue to spill down my cheeks. How will I face this guy now? Knowing that I'm going to make his worst fear come true?
How do I make the pain go away?
