Forgotten

“Don’t worry, you’d get used to it with time. Who knows, you could remember everything in a few months, maybe less. You’d be fine” the nurse replied as though she could read Sarah’s thoughts. “I have to get going now, see you later. The doctor would be with you anytime from now though” Ankia patted Sarah’s shoulders and walked out of the room. Finally alone since she woke up, Sarah had the chance to really think about her present situation. Thinking about everything she learned since she woke up she had an idea about what happened; she was involved in an accident with another lady, a friend or sister perhaps; the accident might have left her with some brain damage because she presently couldn’t remember anything about her past life before the accident; and she had a family waiting to see her. Speaking of which, she should probably let them see her. If they were truly her family, they would undeniably be very worried now, it would be unfair to keep them worried and guessing. Come to think of it, being around familiar faces and people could help in regaining her memories. What if it didn’t? What if she never regained her memories? Would she have to live the rest of her life not knowing how her life was? What if she had wronged someone who had not forgiven her? What if she had debts to pay? How old was she? Was she working, or unemployed? Was she married or still single? Who exactly was she? Her head started to throb and she knew it was because she was thinking about too much at once and she tried to narrow down her thoughts to just thoughts and fantasies of regaining her memory.
