Chapter Two
"I know what a spoon is..."
"So I'm a lawyer..." he confirmed. Maya nodded. "Yes. And you don't remember ANY of the previous cases?" she asked. He shook his head. "And my name is Phoenix Wright..." he repeated. The name sounded weird on his tongue. "It doesn't sound like my name..." he said stubbornly. Phoenix touched his hair for the billionth time. "My hair is so weird..." Maya laughed. But she knew this was wrong. It felt wrong. "How did I propose?" he asked suddenly. Maya was confused. "What do you mean?" Phoenix shrugged. "Well, if we're getting married, that means I proposed. How did I propose?" Maya fiddled with a strand of her hair nervously. "Um... well... we were under a gazebo... and... um... you said you had always loved me," she said. This was becoming a bit easier. "And that you wanted to spend the rest of your life with me. So you got on one knee and you asked me to marry you." She liked the sound of that.
"And you slipped the ring on my finger as I said yes." Yeah, that was perfect. "Oh." Phoenix sounded a bit disappointed. Maya sat up. "You don't like how you proposed?" she asked. "No... but it's just... so... boring and... typical." Maya wasn't sure she liked Nick without his memories.
"This feels weird..." Phoenix said. "It's like... I know what a spoon is and I know what a fork is, but I can't remember who taught me how to use them..." Maya held his hand. "We'll go see some old friends... maybe that will renew your memory." Of course, Maya really didn't want him to regain his memories, but if he did, it's not like she would lose anything... right?
Miles opened the door and shut it two seconds after seeing Phoenix's confused, stupid-looking face staring at him blankly. "Mr. Edgeworth!" Maya banged on the door again. "I do not want to spend my Saturday afternoon with you and I do not plan on opening the door for such rude individuals," he responded a few moments later. Maya kicked the door down. "You have a pretty weak door, considering how luxurious your house is..." she said, and invited herself and Nick inside. Edgeworth stood, paralyzed. "Y-you can't just... breaking and entering... you..." he struggled to find the correct words, and Maya wasn't very patient for an answer. "Nick, do you remember him?" she finally asked. "What do you mean does he rememberme? Of course he remembers me! We only met two days ago!" Miles was not only confused, but horrified and frightened at the sight of his broken door.
"This is a complete violation of the law!" he shouted, finally. "The law..." Nick repeated. "What is wrong with you? Other than the usual things that are wrong with you..." Phoenix struggled to say something. "Do I know you...?" Edgeworth stood for a moment in the hallway, studying the face of the man he thought he knew. For once, he wasn't actually sure of who he was talking to. "Yes..." Maya knew she had to do something. "Phoenix and I are getting married!" she blurted. "But he doesn't remember because he's got amnesia..." Edgeworth didn't exactly know what to say. That was a lot to take in. And although he didn't exactly want to spend his afternoon free-time with the two, he figured he would find this quite amusing. So, he offered his afternoon, and little did he know he was offering his houseas well when he said, "Tea, anyone?"
