- Chapter
- One:
- Who
- Am
- I?The
- bitter
- bite
- of
- smoke
- filled
- his
- lungs
- as
- flashing
- lights
- danced
- across
- the
- shattered
- windshield.
- Gasping
- for
- air,
- the
- middle-aged
- man
- clawed
- at
- his
- seatbelt,
- desperate
- to
- escape
- the
- crumpled
- remains
- of
- his
- vehicle.
- His
- head
- throbbed,
- blood
- trickled
- down
- his
- face,
- and
- a
- searing
- pain
- shot
- through
- his
- leg
- -
- clearly
- broken
- from
- the
- violent
- impact.
- As
- he
- tumbled
- onto
- the
- rain-soaked
- asphalt,
- the
- wailing
- sirens
- grew
- louder,
- but
- his
- mind
- could
- grasp
- only
- one
- harsh
- reality:
- He
- had
- no
- idea
- who
- he
- was.Chapter
- Two:
- The
- Search
- for
- IdentityAs
- paramedics
- hovered
- over
- him,
- their
- voices
- a
- distant
- hum,
- he
- struggled
- to
- piece
- together
- any
- fragment
- of
- his
- past.
- All
- he
- had
- were
- the
- echoes
- of
- a
- life
- he
- couldn't
- recall.
- His
- gaze
- drifted
- to
- the
- driver's
- seat,
- where
- he
- saw
- the
- glint
- of
- a
- small,
- battered
- notebook.
- With
- trembling
- hands,
- he
- reached
- out
- and
- snatched
- it
- up
- before
- they
- could
- whisk
- him
- away
- to
- the
- hospital.After
- he
- was
- patched
- up,
- he
- found
- the
- rain
- pelting
- across
- his
- face
- as
- he
- stumbled
- across
- the
- darkened
- intersection,
- blood
- loss
- causing
- his
- vision
- to
- blur
- with
- each
- passing
- moment.
- He
- knew
- he
- had
- to
- find
- shelter,
- and
- soon.
- Spotting
- an
- open
- door
- to
- a
- nearby
- diner,
- he
- pushed
- through
- it
- gratefully,
- grateful
- for
- the
- warmth
- and
- safety
- it provided.
