Chapter 1

Zhan was lying on his bed, words continuously hitting his head and heart like it was arrows, but only one sentence hitting him again and again." Excuse me do I know you ? " 

He ruffled in his  bed, since he was better then before his father thought it was good if he would come to their house.

" Did he really not remember me? Why me alone? " He kept thinking about this again and again and correlated with what the doctors had said.

-----

" Mr. Xiao, actually this quiet normal thing to happen, maybe after a week's time or months or years time, he'll get back his memories, but there also exist worst case of them not remembering you at all for ever ". The words alone killed him all over again.

" What can be done then?"  Asked Zhan hoping there was a solution to the problem.

" Well for starters you can help him regain his memory by walking through it, but that doesn't work all the time, it makes them stressed or you can simply just allow him to catch up on him slow and steady. " The doctors smiled and left the room, leaving Zhan more worried then before.

What if he doesn't remember you, what if he doesn't want to be with you, a lot of what if's were coming in Zhan's mind and none of them had any answers for them.

-----

" Hello, I'm Yibo, I met you in the hallway this morning. "

Zhan was eating lunch and the guy from morning sat beside him to eat his lunch. At first Zhan was happy to have someone sitting beside him for lunch, but later he was worried for the new guy, that he would be tagged as a weirdo too if he sat beside him.

Zhan decided to tell him to go sit somewhere else, maybe at the popular people table. He smiled and began to talk. I know, nice to meet you Yibo.

He smiled and looked at me, " Nice to meet you too, what's your name? ", Zhan smiled answering back " I'm Zhan " He smiled as he began to eat his lunch again, Zhan sighed as he began to talk again, " I should warn you, you should sit somewhere else, if people see you with me, they'll tag you as Weirdo as well. "

Yibo was confused about why Zhan would say such thing, but then again Zhan was relieved he was able to save the new comer from getting a bad name on his first day. " So you don't want me to sit here? "  Yibo said making a googly eye at him.

Zhan laughed at his reaction but then again he had to be serious  " It's not that I- umm..  " , Yibo Spoke again  " Then I can sit here right? " He asked smiling again. "Sure....  umm....  You can."   Zhan gave up the warnings,  Zhan knew Yibo is grown boy and if anyone bullies him he can face it, but as far he didn't want Yibo to sit beside him, he was also happy that Yibo decided to sit beside him.

After the lunch ......

" I seem to have same classes as you ". Yibo looked at Zhan's class schedule. Zhan was happy that they had the same class schedule, maybe the fact that he finally had someone talking to him sweetly and also shared same classes as him. Zhan was happy " Yeah, maybe I can help you with the missed classes."

Zhan offered him to help for which Yibo smiled brightly " I would love that, thank you " . Zhan smiled sitting on the desk, while Yibo sat on the empty desk next to him. " So where do you live? " Zhan asked him excitedly. Yibo smiled and answered him back "  I live in 23rd street ". Zhan was excited since he lived closer to him, " I'm in 25th " . Yibo smiled seeing Zhan smile.

" Mr. Xiao and Mr. Wang, could you please be quiet ! " Their teacher had called them out because they were talking and disturbing the class, they laughed again quietly to the fact that they had been caught.

" Zhan....  Zhan !.... "

A voice was heard again pulling Zhan back to reality.

It was late in the evening and I had finally woken up, doctors said I had met with an accident, I barely remember any of it, he did also said I may have forgotten some part of my memory of memories that's what he had said. I got up slowly still feeling the pain in my ribs and my hands and legs, but I decided to get up anyway. I walked trying to balance myself to see the view outside the window in the room. The city looked beautiful with the sun setting in the background, it looked beautiful. But that's when I had an excruciating pain in my head, it was like something was rushing back in me. A hand..... A voice......  A smile..... The tone how it called my name.

" Yibo ~ You should be careful you'll slip in the water " A voice that was soothing and caring at the same time, I fell holding my head and the nurse saw me.

" Mr. Wang! You need to sit down, I'll bring the doctors. " The nurse helped me back to the bed and soon a doctor came to test my pulse. " Mr. Wang, you still aren't recovered completely, you need to rest " The doctor Smiled at me and I thought this was the perfect time to ask him what was happening to me.

" Doctor while I was looking at the view, I had this image in my head....  It....  It felt as though it was real, but I don't know who it was, it was also like a dream. " I was confused, I didn't know if I was making any sense, but the doctor seemed to understand me.

" Well it's your lost memory, it's coming back to you, but here.... " He gave me an orange bottle. " Whenever you get those headaches, take one tablet from this " I smiled taking the bottle from him. Now my concern was who's voice was it. And why was I suddenly able to remember it just by looking at the sunset.

Zhan moved to the kitchen since his father had called him and asked him to come down, since he had the accident Zhan's father  was the one who was cooking for them. Zhan's father was happy that Zhan was smiling again, but Zhan's sister did tell did that his father did cry all the days that Zhan was unconscious. He carefully went down to the kitchen and saw his father cook and almost burning his finger.

" I'm cooking Wonton soup noodles, you like that right? " Zhan's father asked him excitedly, he smiled and nods his head. "How are you feeling now?"  Zhan's father asked him in a  concerned way, he smiled vaguely, " A little better, just some pain here and there " He knew Zhan was lying since the most painful of all pain was Yibo not being able to remember Zhan and his father knew that for sure. Zhan sat on the dining chair and his father handed him the bowl of noodle that very nice aroma.

" I'm here for you.....  And don't worry he'll remember you, I mean he has to or else I will make him remember otherwise. " Zhan's  dads words were comforting as he kissed the top of his  head hugging him slightly from the side, as tears rolled down from Zhan's cheeks he prayed that Yibo remembered him.
