Amnesiac

By Trisana McGraw

John sighed, gazing at the serene water. "I woke up alone, not knowing what had happened to me. I didn't know my name or my origin; I virtually had to start a new life. I even made some friends, though I always wondered what things were like before. Then bits of my past came back to ruin everything. I lost people I cared about, and I was even betrayed by someone I had come to call my friend."

They shared a comfortable silence until Colin smiled his first real smile in weeks and said, "Glad I'm not the only one."
