Nora and the nurse gasp. While the rest of us just look at her in shock. I knew that things were bad, but Ididn’t think that they would be this bad.
Her eyes scan our faces. “Why do I feel like that’s not the answer you were expecting?”
“Ava, we are in twenty, twenty–three” I gently tell her.
“Holy shit”
Exactly. Meaning that Ava didn’t remember the last four years of her life.
The doctor takes a note book and scribbles something on it. “I need to arrange some things. We need todo some scans. These kind of things happen, but we have to get our diagnosis right.
He rushes out of the room. Rosa follows
We are left staring at each other. No one knows how to react or what to think. This is something that
none of us were prepared for. We also didn’t see this coming. It is a shock.
“So you really don’t remember us?” Nora asks after a while.
I feel so fucking sorry for them. They have been through enough without adding this to their list.
“I’m sorry, but no, the last thing I remember is crying myself to sleep.”
Theo hugs his wife. I see how this hurts them. It’s painful for them to know that Ava doesn’t remember
them.
We stay in silence until the nurse comes back with a wheel chair. Nora and Theo decide to stay andmake calls to deliver the news. I chose to go with Ava and Rosa.
We go to a bunch of rooms mostly seeing specialist. They conduct a bunch of tests including scans. Bythe time we are done, Ava looks exhausted. I wheel her back to her room. The doctor is supposed tocome and see us once they have a clear diagnosis.
We get into her room and find it crowded. Everyone, except for my parents, Kate, Travis, and Emma, arethere. Surprisingly, Noah is present too.

we will never be buddies, but we put our differences aside for Ava’s and the children’s sake.
Ava looks overwhelmed as she stares at those in the room. Damn it. She doesn’t remember them of
course she would be nervous.
“Mom, you’re awake!” Noah screams in happiness.
Her eyes turn to him and widen. “Oh my god, Noah?”
I help her on the bed. Once she’s settled, Noah gives her a hug that lasts a couple of minutes.
I’ve missed you so much, mom.”
Man you’re grown. I
“I’ve missed you too” she pulls away a little and stares at him with wide eyes. in are you this tall? The lasttime I saw you, you weren’t this big”
Letty, Calvin and Corrine give each other weird looks. I guess no one had told them of the new
development.
“You last saw me three months ago. I haven’t changed much” he laughs. “Anyway, have you seen Irisyet?”
Shit. I completely forgot about Iris.
“Who’s Iris?”
“Are you trying to be funny, Mom?” Noah chuckles. “Iris is my sister. We named her together.”
Her shocked eyes turned to me. “Holy shit! We have a daughter?”
She’s so surprised that she doesn’t even realize that she cursed in front of Noah. Noah looks at herfunny
while I try to come up with an answer.
How the hell am I supposed to tell her that Iris wasn’t mine, but Ethan’s, when she doesn’t evenremembernovelbin
him?
Before I can say anything, the door opens and the specialist walks in.
“I’ve got the results of the tests back, and I’m sorry to say it isn’t all good news,” he begins.
My heart thumps in my chest, afraid of their findings. I already knew what’s wrong with her; I was justfucking scared of it being voiced out.
I’m sorry, but Ava seems to have selective amnesia.”
