While Anthony did everything he could to make her remember him and remember what they share together, her mother and sister also did their own part in making sure she remembered him. After she was discharged from the hospital it was advised to go home with her mother, well she actually insisted that she wanted to go home with her mother; according to her “I can’t be sleeping in a man’s house that I barely remember”.
Based on the doctor’s
advice Anthony didn’t go her see her for two weeks after she was discharged
from the hospital, the doctor felt giving her some time and space alone might also
help her recover the memory but that wasn’t the case, those memories of her
loving Anthony and getting married to him were mere of stories to her as she
couldn’t remember anything and this was the beginning of the end of their
marriage.
Six months after
leaving the hospital, she and Anthony went out on a date, by this time Anthony
had given up on trying to make her remember who he was, instead, he felt
starting with her afresh and making her fall in love with him all over might just do
the trick, so he started their relationship from scratch and was taking things
slow. But everything he did, she saw it
as him just trying to make her remember the past even though Anthony was just trying to create a new memory.
So while on their third date after she was discharged from the hospital, she decided to tell
him how she felt exactly. It wasn’t something she wanted to say because she knew
how hurt he was going to be and to be honest she had also wanted to remember
everything they shared together. The stories they (her mum, her sister and
Anthony) all told her about her she and Anthony were happy together, the
pictures she saw, most especially her wedding pictures, she really wanted to be
that girl, but it wasn’t just happening and she was really getting tired of
dwelling in the past and that exactly how she feels any time she sees Anthony.
“I know what I’m about to say isn’t what you would be hoping to hear but it
is the truth and I think you really deserve that because you are an amazing
person,” she said to him after they had finished eating their meal. “I really do appreciate everything you have
done for me in the past six months, even what you did while I was at the hospital;
I really appreciate because I know you did this out of love which is why it pains
me to say this”.
She takes a deep pause as she continues to stare in his
eyes just maybe something would spark in her and she will remember everything
but nope, nothing, there was no spark. “The
more I see your face the more I feel like I’m being forced to remember
something I have no memory of and before you speak, I know you haven’t tried to
make me remember anything instead you are trying to create new memories which I
can only imagine how hard that must be for you but trust me when I say it’s
harder for me because the more I spend time with you the more it feels like I’m
trying to live in the past, a past I honestly don’t remember, which is why I would
beg and ask you that we stop seeing each other”.
