Memories Faded {Open}

Since that day that I woke up under the tree at the top of the hill with no memory of anything but my name, I've felt lost. Sure, I have a friend named Wilbur who claimed to remember me from before, but he only knew my first name. Regardless, I am really quite appreciative that he was willing to take me in and give me somewhere to stay. Some days, though, I still wanted to get to know the world, thinking that maybe, it would bring back memories from before, when I used to know who I was. Unfortunately, that hadn't happened yet. Perhaps another day of wandering the District would do it, though. Maybe I'd just get back a memory or two.

Walking about on the streets of Five, not quite sure where I was going, as I couldn't remember my way around, was an interesting feat. I often crashed into people when walking, as I was admiring my surroundings, and usually, when I did that, I received a dirty look from whomever the person was. Eventually, it ended up with the constant collisions causing me irritation, so I decided that I'd find somewhere to rest. Sitting on a bench on the sidewalk, I watched the people passing by. Maybe, just maybe, if I saw a face that should have seemed familiar, it would trigger some memories for me.

I sat there for quite some time, before eventually jolting upright and grabbing a person by the shoulder that I had spotted. I realized that this probably wasn't the most socially acceptable way to get someone's attention, but they looked familiar to me, I didn't know there name, and I thought that maybe, just maybe, they could help me out in figuring out at least one little thing more about myself.

"Excuse me? Can you help me?" I asked, my voice a bit more frantic sounding than I had originally intended for it to be. I likely sounded concerned or scared, as I didn't really know how to properly talk to people aside form Wilbur anymore. It made me wonder if I ever knew how to talk to people properly before I lost my memory. Boy, did it make me wish I could remember my life from before.
