Chapter 5: Should I Stay Or Should I Go?
Thye drove away from the hospital and continued their search for Jude. They got lost and had been driving for about an hour when they finally came across a beautiful villa. "This is the place," Said Kwest, surprised. "Wow. She managed to find a pretty good house."
"If she's even there," Tommy added in. Kwest glared at him. They walked up to the house and knocked on the front door. After a minute, they heard shuffling and finally the door opened slowly.
"Hello?" The door opened wider and they saw her standing there. She looked different; her long firey red hair had been cut, and she wasn't as pale as she was before. Tommy smiled.
"Jude? Is that you?" She gave him a weird look.
"Of course it's me. Why? Who are you?" Tommy felt like he had just been ripped to shreds. His worst fear had come true. She didn't remember him.
"It's me, Tommy. You mean to say that you have no idea who I am?" She shook her head.
"No. You look kinda familiar, but I don't-- I don't remember you." Seeing the pained look in Tommy's eyes, she quickly added. "I'm so sorry." He shrugged.
"It's-- It's ok." He looked away from her. Even though she didn't know who he was, she decided she wanted to help him.
"This happens alot to me," She said while coming to his side and putting a hand on his shoulder. "Maybe you can help me remember." He looked up.
"How?" She shrugged.
"Beats me. Nobody ever tries. But I want to help you. Do you have any ideas?" He did. He and Kwest took her to a pier that resembled the one he had taken her when he first met her and he played a song he had written for her. He showed her pictures, played her cds for her, and told her about her old life. Nothing worked. Tommy was devastated. He decided he needed to think more, and left Kwest and Jude sitting at the dock. Jude went up to Kwest. "He's sweet. I just wish I could remember him. I looks like he wants that." Kwest nodded.
"He does. More than anything."
"Why?"
"Because before any of this happened everything was going perfect. Then after the accident, he thought you'd died and just seeing you but you not remembering him is torturing the guy. He's in love with you, Jude." She smiled.
"I'd like to remember." There was silence as Jude tried to think. Tommy came back.
"Hey, girl." Jude looked confused.
"Why are you always calling me girl?" Tommy was surprised at the question.
"I've always called you girl."
"Why?" He shrugged.
"I guess it's cause you'd never let me say 'hey, Jude' and it just kinda--stuck. I'll stop if you want." She shook her head.
"That's ok. I kinda like it, actually." An idea came to Tommy.
"Jude?"
"Yeah?"
"Can you do me a favor?" She nodded. "Look at the ring finger on your left hand." She looked down at her hand.
"What about it? It's just my ring." She held up her hand. "I've always had it. Ever since I can remember."
"Do you remember who gave you that ring?" He asked desperately. She shook her head again.
"Who?" Tommy frowned.
"You're looking at him." A wave of familiar images hit Jude when she heard that, so many it made her head hurt. She rubbed her temples. "What's wrong?"
"Huh? Nothing really. Just a headache." He nodded and she continued trying to identify the mixed images. All her memories came flooding back to her. She looked up at him. "I remember now. Everything."
