Excerpt
“I want you
to remember, Faith,” he said softly. “I want you to remember all the good times
and leave out the bad ones.”
“I don’t
think I get to pick and choose.”
“We both
did things we weren’t proud of. Things that I’d be happy for you to forget. But
if it comes back to you, I want you to know that I’m sorry. It was my fault.”
I wanted to
ask him what we’d done, what awful things we’d put each other through. But I
was afraid to know. Maybe, in some ways, my memory loss was a blessing. All the
bad things had been wiped clean while for Will, he had to live with them each
day, had to remember every word, every hurtful action.
I leant in
closer and rested my head on his chest. At first his body stiffened, then he
relaxed, put his arm around me and held me close.
We laid
like that for a time while something skimmed the sky high above us.
“Look a
shooting star,” he said.
“The
International Space Station.”
“Show off.”
I giggled.
Then he bent his head, put his lips on mine and kissed me.
