Amnesia
for Life
Chapter Two
Ring. Ring. Ring. Ring. Ring. Ring.
"Hello, Granger residence," an older version of Max's voice answers the phone.
"Max?" I question, unable to block the pain from coming through in my voice.
"Who is this?"
"Is Grandpa there?" I ask, only wanting to talk to the old man himself.
"Tyson, is that you?"
"Just get Grandpa."
"All right. Hey, G-man, telephone," Max calls out.
"Yo, what's up, Dawg?" Grandpa Granger's voice rings through the voice.
"Grandpa, I need your help."
"Kai, my main man, what's up?" he asks, noticing my voice immediately.
"It's Tyson, he…" I can't bring myself to say it as I sit against the wall with my knees held to my chest just outside of Tyson's room.
"What's wrong?"
"He doesn't remember me at all. I don't know what to do," I respond, my heart breaking even more than it already was, not that I thought it was even possible.
"Hold on, Dawg, I'll be there as soon as I can," he promises.
I tell him what hospital I'm at and hang up the phone, leaving me alone with her broken heart. I can't go back into Tyson's room because every time I look at that confused look on his face I just feel so helpless and want to cry.
Tyson's POV:
I sneak out of my bed with a goofy grin on my face as I sneak over to the door.
"Max?...Is Grandpa there?" Kai asks into his cell phone.
I hold in a laugh. It's working.
"Just get Grandpa…Grandpa, I need your help…It's Tyson, he…. He doesn't remember me at all. I don't know what to do…" Kai speaks with a broken tone.
This is the first time that I've ever heard so much emotion in his voice. I sneak back to my bed and fall asleep comfortably, knowing that my plan is in progress.
