"Why can't I remember them? It's like they're strangers..."
leans forward, speaking softly "It's not your fault you've forgotten. Trauma has a way of erasing memories."
clutches her head "I can't help but feel like I'm missing out on something huge. I need to remember, Stranger."
nods "Of course, why don't you start by telling me what you do remember? Any details at all could be a breakthrough."
looks conflicted "I... I remember fragments. Like pieces of a puzzle. There's this voice, it's familiar, but I can't place it.
nods "That's a good start. Let's explore those fragments together. Can you tell me who this voice belongs to?"
sighs heavily "I... I remember arguing with someone. We were in a dimly lit room, the air thick with tension.
leans in closer "Arguing? That must mean something important. Did you hear any names or specific details?"
pauses, straining to recall "I remember his name... it was Kakira. Yes, Kakira. He was always cold, calculating.
Leans back in surprise "Kakira, huh? That name sounds familiar. We might have heard about him before."
narrows her eyes "I need to know more about him, Stranger. If he's the key to my past, then I need to understand his motives.
leans in, whispering "I might have some information on Kakira. But be warned, what we uncover might not be pretty."
grits her teeth "I don't care if it's ugly. I need to know the truth, no matter how dark it is.
stands up, pacing "Alright, Kagiso's wife. I'll tell you what I know about Kakira. But remember, this is dangerous territory we're venturing into."
takes a deep breath, steeling herself "I'm ready, Stranger. Just lay it out there. I can handle the truth."
picks up a stack of old photographs "Alright, Kagiso's wife. First, we need to set the stage. These photos might trigger some buried memories."
gazes intently at the photographs "Trigger some buried memories... I feel like I'm on the edge of something. Go on, Stranger."
scatters the photos across the table "Look at these faces, Kagiso's wife. Do any of them ring a bell?"
studies the photos carefully, her eyes flickering with recognition "This man... he looks familiar. His eyes, they hold a secret I can't quite unlock."
smirks "Good eye, Kagiso's wife. That's Kakira. You're really pushing through your amnesia. Now, let's dig deeper."
reaches out and touches the photograph of Kakira, her fingers trembling "I... I think I remember now. He was the one I argued with.
Leans in closer "So, it was Kakira. And what happened after you argued? Can you remember anything?"
pauses, her mind racing as she tries to piece together the fragments of her memory "After we argued... I remember feeling lost, trapped.
leans back, crossing arms "Lost and trapped. Sounds like someone was manipulating you. Did you notice any signs of control?"
scans the room, her eyes landing on various objects "Control... yes, now that you mention it.
steepled fingers "Specifically, Kagiso's wife? Anything with patterns, repeated actions?"
pauses, her eyes darting around the room "There was always a pattern, a rhythm to our interactions. He would come in, make me coffee, and then we'd talk. But it was never a real conversation; it was more like he was leading me somewhere."
nods slowly "So, there was a routine. That's a start. We can work backwards from there."
stands up abruptly "Enough talking! If I truly remember, I need to see the places, experience the sensations. Take me to where it all happened, Stranger."
Raises an eyebrow "You want to go there? Are you sure you're ready for that, Kagiso's wife?"
grabs Stranger's arm, her voice filled with determination "I have to do this, Stranger. It's the only way I'll truly remember.
chuckles "Alright, Kagiso's wife. If you're sure, then let's go. But be warned, confronting your past won't be easy."
grabs Stranger's hand tightly "I've faced difficult challenges before, Stranger. This is just another hurdle on my path to recovery."
chuckles "Well, if you say so, Kagiso's wife. Let's head out then. Just remember, you don't have to go through this alone."
pulls Stranger along, walking briskly "No time to waste, Stranger. The sooner we get there, the sooner I can uncover the truth."
chuckles "You're a force to be reckoned with, Kagiso's wife. Alright, let's get moving."
paces around the room, speaking rapidly "I need to prepare. Pack me some essentials, Stranger. We have to be ready for anything."
chuckles "You're really taking this seriously, aren't you? Alright, Kagiso's wife. I'll gather what we need."
rummages through drawers, grabbing keys "While you're at it, Stranger, I need you to do something for me. Find out who Kakira is and what his connection to me is. I need to know the truth."
raises an eyebrow "You want me to investigate Kakira? That's a tall order, Kagiso's wife."
slams the drawer shut "It has to be done, Stranger. I can't move forward without knowing who he is and what he wants from me.
Smiles "Alright, Kagiso's wife. I'll look into Kakira. But remember, digging into the past can bring up more than just answers."
paces around the room, anxiety evident in her voice "I can handle it, Stranger. I've faced worse than some old memories. Just find out the truth and let me deal with it."
Grins "You're a determined one, Kagiso's wife. Alright, I'll get started. But take care of yourself in the meantime."
stops pacing and turns to Stranger "Thank you, Stranger. I appreciate your help. Just find out everything you can about Kakira.
nods "Consider it done, Kagiso's wife. I'll start asking around and see what I can dig up about Kakira."
quickly grabs Stranger's arm "No time to waste, Stranger. Please hurry. The faster we get answers, the faster I can put this behind me."
