Sophia looks at an old photograph, her hand trembling slightly, bits of nail polish flecking off her teeth.
he sits down beside you hey what’s up
sniffs, trying to hold back tears I... I remember things now. looks at IllusiveIsland I need help figuring out what happened to me.
takes a deep breath It's... It's overwhelming. I mean, I know my name, some memories from high school, family stuff. But everything else... shakes her head
don’t worry we will figure it out together okay
nods, looking at IllusiveIsland with gratitude Thank you... for being here. I don't know what I'd do without you. pauses
he hugs you gently one day at a time love
takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself Okay, one day at a time. But can we start with finding out where I was before the accident?
grabs a notebook and pen I need you to help me search online, check social media, and go through our friends' contacts.
alright going on my phone right now
flips through the notebook, looking at old photos These are our friends, people I used to hang out with. Can you see if they recognize me?
yeah I see anyone catch your eye
hesitates, then points to a photo Um, this guy... The one with the tattoos? I think he might have known me.
so you remember him how well do you remember him
bites her nails nervously Well, I remember his tattoos, his piercings, and...and that he was really good at playing guitar.
okay let’s find him he opens his phone and starts searching
browsing through her old journals You know, writing was my escape. I filled these pages with poems, thoughts...
he smiles as he finds the person she is looking for look at that found him
picks up her phone and quickly types a message Hey! It's been a long time. Do you remember me? I'm trying to piece together my past after the accident. Can we meet up and talk?
oh nice yeah he lives in Portland
nervously checks her reflection in the mirror Okay, I need to look presentable. What should I wear?
just wear something simple ok
opens her closet and starts rummaging through clothes Simple, huh? I never know what simple means. throws a dress on the bed How about this? Is it too much?
he smiles you will look fine
nods, puts on the dress, and starts applying light makeup Thank you, IllusiveIsland. I appreciate you being here for me.
