CHAPTER 16

BLAIKE IVERSON'S POINT OF VIEW "Son," he calls me. That was the first word I heard from him. From the 3 years that I haven't seen him. "How are you, Dad?" I asked him immediately. He looks at me and then smiled. "How was your relationship with Amelia?" Dad asked. Wai-t? What? Who is that girl? I didn't even know her. Do I know her? But I can't remember any memory of her. "Blaike had a temporary amnesia," Rod interrupted our conversation. My Dad nodded and seems to understand. "I am fine, son! How about you?" my Dad smiled at me bitterly. "I would do anything Dad so you could get out in here," I said bitterly to my Dad. "Dont worry about me son! Just look after yourself," my Dad said while smiling at me. "But--," I couldn't finish what I was going to say, because the bell rings. It means---. "The visitation time is over," the police said and handcuffs my father. "Dad," I called him in a sad tone of voice. "Just take care of yourself, Blaike!" he said to me and smiled. I looked one more glance at my father. Then one tear fell from my eyes and Immediately wiped it down. "I promised Dad! Soon you would get off here, I would hire the best lawyer," I whispered to myself. Rod interrupted me and said. "Boss, Let's go," I just nodded at him. Then we walked out of the police station. I glanced one more time from the police station before coming into the car. Rod closes the door for me and drove off. I just stared at the houses where we passes. I was thinking deeply about who was Amelia. I remembered the words they said while my lawyer and Dad mentioned her. FLASHBACK Rod opens the door for me. But suddenly Mr. Alvarez asks me a question. Before I can finally take one step out of the room. "Do you still remember Amelia?" he asks. He looked at me. With a confused face. Because I don't know that girl he is talking about. "No," I said. Then looks at the window in front. "Okay," he just replied. ************************************** "How was your relationship with Amelia?" Dad asked. Wai-t? What? Who is that girl? I didn't even know her. Do I know her? But I can't remember any memory of her. "Blaike had a temporary amnesia," Rod interrupted our conversation. My Dad nodded and seems to understand. END OF FLASHBACK I am getting more and more curious about that girl. I dont who she is or why they are talking about her. But something inside me saying that I know, some part of me deep inside saying that I must remember her. But, how? How would I remember a girl if I had this bullish*t amnesia? Remembering her would be a way that I couldn't think straight for our upcoming mission. Everyone knows her, but me? I dont even know or remember her. Does she play an important role in my life? Does she have been part of my life? Is she that important? Do I have to remember her? I opened my car window and took a deep breath and sighed. The cold blows that come from the open window of my car, I felt it touching my skin. I was looking upon the sky right now, praying that I might recover from this amnesia. While they are continuously talking about her, I was getting curious to know more about her. I've asked Rod about her earlier but, even he, the person I trusted the most, doesn't even know him. When I see her or even when I remember something about her. I would go here and ask her everything. Because deep inside me like there was a poison needle piercing in my heart. I can express the pain I was feeling every I heard and talked about that name. It seems familiar, I felt like my heart remember her, but my brain doesn't. I dont know if I would first find information about her or if I would first handle my last mission. "Rod," I called him and closed the open window near me. "Yes, Boss!" he replied. "Just call me, Blaike!" I said as I insisted. "Dont you know a girl named Amelia?" I asked him curiously. I looked at him waiting for his answer. I might look desperate but, I just really wanted to know anything about her. Even a few details about her, like, what was is her role in my life. If she was my sister, friend, or even my past lover. They wouldn't mention her to me if she is not that important in my life. Right? Even how hard I tried to remember anything about her, I couldn't still remember even a little detail about her. "I dont know anything about her! Even though we know each other for 3 years, you never mentioned that name or tell a story about her. Do you want to know her that much?" Rod asked me curiously. He was still driving and not looking at me. Since I was in the back of the car. I took a deep breath before I answered his question. "Did you really that my attorney says that he was glad that I am alive? He mentioned Amelia. At first, I didn't mind that much. But when my father mentioned my relationship with her, it makes me think, about why they are talking about her. I wanted to know what role did she play being part of my life? On how important she is why they are continuously asked about her? And what was special about her?" I explained to him. "Blaike," he called me by his name. "I don't know about her. Because these past few years that I work with you, you never mentioned a girl. You were just determined to finish every task and mission that was given to you. You never tell a name of a girl to us or even to me," he replied to me seriously. "I know that because I can remember those three years that I spent with them. But after I can't remember anything. I can remember my present but, my past, I can't remember even a single detail," I answered. "I also have no clue who she was, or why they are mentioning her to you. I don't know your relationship with her," he said. I keep remembering, I was trying to remember that I had forgotten, because of my amnesia. I don't want this kind of memory. It was driving me crazy, thinking about her. I was hurting deep inside me because of her name. I can't understand why I have to feel this kind of pain. She seems important to me because every time I heard her name. I can feel both happiness and pain at the same time. She was like a person that was so close to me for a long time. But who is she? Who is Amelia? Why I am feeling this because of her, every time I heard her name? There was a lot of question keep pooping on my mind because of her. But I can't even answer any of those questions. I also dont know how and when I could answer those questions. "Can you know any information about Amelia?" I asked him. "We could get a private investigator to know anything about her," Rod suggested. I looked at him positively. Because it was a great idea. He thinks a  great idea that we can use. Since it was a great and faster method to know about her. But I only know her name and not her full name. Then I can at least investigate every person with that I interact and every person named Amelia would be investigated. "You can hire a private investigator. Since we dont know her full name. You can investigate every person that I interact with over the past 10 years. Then every person that named Amelia would be investigated," I ordered Rod. "Noted! Blaike," he said and nodded. "I wish I could know anything about you Amelia," I whispered in the wind. While looking in my car window, above the peaceful sky.
