Chapter 1

Andy Flynn ran down the stairs after the suspect. Suddenly he lost control and fell on icy stairs. He hit his head and fell unconscious. Detective Amy Sykes immediately come to the rescue. She bent over him and immediately checked his pulse. His head was bleeding. Amy immediately sent a message to Provenza and Sanchez to be able to engage with catching the suspect. She was so worried about Flynn, her hands trembled, and she didn't know what to do. She finally took the phone from her pocket and called 911.

Andy opened his eyes in the ER, but he had no idea why he was there. He tried to get up in bed, but suddenly felt a severe headache, and his ribs hurt too. He saw two people in front of his door. A woman, about 35 years old and an elderly man about 60 years old. He rubbed his eyes slightly to clarify his vision. He saw it as fog. He could hear their voices unclear. Suddenly he saw the nurse who approached them and the three went into his room.

"Andy, I ..." started Provenza.

"Who are you? I don't know you." said Andy confused and tried to keep away from the man.

"Andy, how can you not know your friend? '"

"I asked you a question. Who are you?" repeated again Andy. "Who are you? Who's Andy? '"

"Oh my God! He hit his head harder than I expected." Provenza said with sad look looking at his friend. Andy began to wonder even more. Everything was fog in his head.

"Who are you? And who is Andy?" Provenza left the room to call the doctor.

"This is Lieutenant Provenza." Amy said. "He's your best friend too. Your name is Andrew Flynn, Andy for short. You work in Major Crimes's department. This is your ID. It's you." Amy said, handing the ID to him. Andy took the ID, and examine it carefully for a long time. His headache was still in full force and he felt that his whole body hurt. He wanted nothing more than to sleep. He looked at Sykes, but she didn't return his memories.

"This is me?" Andy asked innocently. Amy nodded slightly.

"Yes, Lieutenant, it's you. '"

"What happened to me? '"

"You fall on icy stairs while tracing a suspect. You lost consciousness and you hit your head." Amy explained, hoping that Andy can remember anything. At that time, Andy's doctor and Lieutenant Provenza entered the room.

"Lieutenant Flynn, I'm Dr. Taylor, your doctor." said the doctor with a smile. "How do you feel?" Andy sighed wearily and clenched his teeth in pain.

"It hurts everywhere. ''

"I guess you've suffered a bad accident." Dr. Taylor approached his patient and began to examine his head.

"It seems, however, that all is well now. We'll give you some medicament for the pain but we'll keep you under observation for a few days." said the doctor. Andy nodded, still confused. The doctor came out to talk with Provenza and Sykes.

"I worry about Andy doctor, he doesn't remember anything." said Provenza concerned.

"Calm down. It is caused by a concussion. We should be thankful that he is awake. Yes, he doesn't remember anything, but for now. Don't worry, over time, he'll recover. ''

"He'll really remember it?" asked Sykes.

"Of course. But he need some time. The injury was bad, so we need to take care very well for him. Try to talk to him about some past events, this can help his recovery." said the doctor. Provenza nodded and sighed with relief somewhat. He turned and looked at Andy's room. The nurse gave his drugs.

"Lieutenant Provenza, Lieutenant Flynn suffered a head injury. It will take some time to return to normal. It will take some time to remember everything." added the doctor. Provenza nodded and took his phone. He had to call Sharon to let her know. Sharon was sitting in her office when her phone rang.

"Hello, Lieutenant Provenza. ''

"Captain, you should come to the hospital. ''

"What's happening?" she asked nervously.

"Andy ..." When Sharon heard Andy's name, as if her heart would stop for a moment.

"What about Andy? What happened? '"

"Captain, he suffered an accident while caught a suspect." Sharon took off her glasses and took her purse.

"I'll come right there. He's okay?"

"Don't worry, now he's fine. Please come quickly." Sharon hung up the phone and immediately went to the hospital.

After half an hour, Sharon arrived at the hospital breathlessly and anxiously. She immediately went to Provenza and Sykes.

"What's going on? Where's Andy? '"

"Captain, calm down. Andy is in the room. ''

"Well, what happened? '"

"Captain, he fell on icy stairs and hit his head. We immediately brought him to hospital. At the moment Julio is about to catch the suspect." Amy explained.

"I understand, but I need to see Andy." Provenza escorted her to Andy's room. They went inside. Andy lay on the bed. Sharon approached him with tears in her eyes. He looked confused, he couldn't even remember Sharon. She took his hand gently.

"Andy, what happened? How are you feeling?" Andy was silent. For him, she was completely unknown.

"I'm sorry, but who are you? I don't know you." At this point, Sharon froze.

"Don't you remember me? I'm Sharon, Andy." Andy thought for a moment. He wanted to remember something, but it wasn't possible.

"I'm sorry, ma'am, but I don't remember you." Sharon's heart was filled with pain. She looked sadly at Andy and wept loudly. Provenza put his hand on her shoulder.

"He remembers nothing. Absolutely nothing. The doctor said it was the result of trauma. ''

"Captain, I'll inform the team." Sykes said and walked out. Sharon sat next to Andy, in her eyes only sadness and pain.

"I should call Nicole. She should know." said Sharon. Sharon walked out while Andy slept. She notifies Nicole on the phone. She sat in the waiting room. She couldn't believe that Andy doesn't remember anything. He didn't remember her. He didn't told her "Sharon" or "honey" as always. He told her "ma'am." It really hurt Sharon, deeply. Provenza came from Andy's room and sat beside her.

"Captain, I know it's a big pain, I suffer for my friend too, but I'm convinced that he'll soon regain his memory." Sharon nodded with a slight sad smile.

"I hope lieutenant." Sharon sighed wearily and closed her eyes. The pain that she felt was enormous.
