Love Remembers

Chapter 14

*****Georgia’s POV*****

                Part of me couldn’t and wouldn’t believe a word Letty was telling me, while the other part believed every single bit of it.

                I just think it’s crazy that all this happened to me, let alone I cannot remember one day of the past two years of my life!  Quite frankly it just seems like one crazy nightmare my mind won’t wake up from nor process. Being the weird person I am I reach over and pinch the side of my arm hoping I’ll wake up. But do I? No, I’m still walking into the bathroom with Letty on my trail that was now carrying her purse.

                “This is so frustrating,” I said leaning on the counter once we reached the bathroom and began running my fingers through my long blonde hair.

                “It’s going to be ok,” she began coming and jumping up to sit on the counter beside me. “You’ll gain your memory back in time, plus you’ll be at my house when you get discharged and you can start there instead of this dreary place.”

                “True, thanks Let it means a lot to me that you would do this.” I said giving her a small smile and turning to hug her.

                “Georgia, you don’t even need to say thank you. It’s what friends do, I’m always going to be here for you. Just promise me you’ll remember that.”

                “I’m not quite sure if I could keep that promise, I mean look what happened. I lost two fricking years of memory and I can’t do anything about it!” I exclaimed, shoving away from Letty and the counter and starting to pace the room.

                “Georgia, calm down it will be ok!” She said tears starting to swarm her eyes. One thing about knowing Letty since we were little is the fact that when it comes to certain things I can read her like an open book. But when it comes to others the chapters stay under lock and key.

                “No it won’t Letty you don’t understand! You have your memories, I don’t!” I yelled exasperated.

                By now the tears that were filling up Letty’s eyes were spilling down her face so fast it look like she just popped up to the surface of a pool right after she jumped in. My heart broke seeing her like this, why did I have to go and flip out on her like that it wasn’t her fault.

“Letty, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have acted like th-“I began apologizing, but she cut me off.

                “You know what Georgia, I’m going to go take the file back to the nurse. J-just get yourself cleaned up.” With that she left the bathroom and pretty soon I heard the door shut behind her.

                I leaned back against the wall and slid down to the floor putting my head in my hands. Why did I have to go and say that? She didn’t do anything wrong, all she was trying to do was be a good friend. Why couldn’t I just accept that and deal with this issue like and adult instead of acting like I was twelve?

                I just sighed and stood up, making my way over to the counter and looking in the mirror. Gazing upon the face that was staring back at me I was shocked. I didn’t even look like my normal self, or at least the self I was used to two years ago.

                My eyes had ginormous bags under them that were a darkish purple color, and looked even worse in this lighting. My usually bouncy blonde hair now hung in limp strands. My eyes that were also usually filled with happiness and joy were strange to me, as was the entire person located in the mirror staring back at me.
