I am obviously shock -- I didn't know what to react. All of a sudden, I was just brought here -- in this unusual place. People around me started hugging and kissing me. Especially these two -- they are claiming themselves as my parents.
My forehead of course, forms a curve line.
"Please do take care of our son," this old woman said. She hugged me again and kissed me on the cheek. "This procedure will help you, anak."
I didn't reply. This was just so confusing. I can't remember such a thing. Yes, they did said that I got into an accident and my head is the most damaged part -- that's why I have trouble remembering things about my self -- my life.
"W-Where am I going?" I suddenly asked.
The old woman -- I mean, er...my mother said. "This for you, anak...this is for you." She held my hand and kissed it. "I love you, anak."
They got me inside the car and drove off. Everything was just not clear for me, everything seems empty and blank. My mind seems like to go out of this car and come back -- but, my body don't want to cooperate.
I looked at my left hand and looked at the ring finger for a long time...My brows furrowed -- it feels like I have something to wear in it.
I shrugged that thought off. I just sighed and observed the surroundings around me.
"Your parents advised me not to change any detail about you at all." I looked at one of the doctors. "Unless the name -- you'll use your second name...and that is Marc."
I just nodded. What is my first name? Anyway, I guess all I have to do is to follow their intructions. My mother said it is for me. "Where are we going?"
She smiled at me. "You are going to live a simple life for now until the treatment is done, Marc."
"O-okay." Even though I felt uneasy about that idea I just find the way how my mind gets comfortable with it. This is for me...I hope I can remember things when I got to that place.
"You will not give any information to the people around you when we got there, okay?"
Still confused, I nodded. "Okay," I said and looked outside again.
I feel like, I want someone to talk to me right now. Then, I suddenly remember that girl who approached me one day.
She was asking me if I know a certain name whose name is... Z-Zaira? She kepts on telling me that name and the same answers is coming out from my mouth. What can I do? i just don't remember why I am here and people around me are just weird.
I tried to talk to ask them if I already have a family --my own family...they took a long pause and the old woman said: "Wala kang pamilya." I just believe her, but I think that answer is not enough for me to believe.I think I'll be having clarifications when I got there.
White room -- that's what I saw when I woke up a few days ago. They were telling random things at me and showing pictures that I can't even recognize it. Baby pictures, pictures when I they said that I am a teenager. I just simply shook my head to directly tell them that I can't even remember or any blur images inside my head.
Good thing they were already there and stayed by my side. At least they are making efforts to find a way for me to recover the lost memories that I left behind. I hope I can recover my memories soon.
Minutes gone by and I can't believe that I am already in the place where everything that I am saying is unique -- different environment compared to the place I saw just a few hours ago. There I can see people looking at the car strangely with their curled eyebrows.
