Part 1

The road is quiet,the sky is dark and filled with clouds,the rain is pouring for what seems like

eternity, the sound almost hypnotic, a distant roar slowly getting closer splitting the water like

a boat in the ocean ,the phone rings an unknown number. Thomas driving at 200/mph answers

the call, 20 seconds later the call is cut, Thomas speeds up, the ambience feels different like

seeing nothing but black, he speeds up some more as a bend approaches and within a matter

of seconds the car crashes and everything turns black.

A light begins to appear as Thomas sees something beautiful, an incomplete picture of a

woman and begins to fade as he tries to catch it until it vanishes

"Hello Mr Thomas you are at a hospital can you hear me" Thomas weakly asks for water like a

reflex or thought but where did it come from. Then the thought hospital comes to mind as he

starts sipping the water and he thinks who he is, as his head starts pounding he slowly reaches

for his head and feels bandages .The Doctor who introduced herself as Doctor Kim Rogers

repeats herself by saying "hello Mr Thomas you are in a hospital ,can you understand me?"

3 months later and still no memories but a lot has happened since Thomas woke up from a

month long coma after being in an accident, the accident occurred due to the road being wet

and extreme speeding which he's being told is something he did frequently, the doctors say

he's lucky to be alive. He has also learned of his age ,where he was born ,his parents and life story.

A woman rushes into his room, "sorry I'm late honey" she says. Thomas politely greets her,

her name is Jane Carter ,Thomas' wife to whom he has been married to for 7 years and has a

child named mike with ,who is currently living with Jane's sister overseas. "I brought your

favorite" says Jane as she opens the pack of food, Jane then begins talking about work and

how things are going ,Thomas thinks to himself whilst listening to Jane, he thinks of who he is

and how he feels as though a stranger is sitting in front him and talking about things that he

has no interest in. Thomas' hard life began at an early age of 14 when both his parents had

passed away in a plane crash leaving him to fend for himself with a hefty inheritance. At the

age of 16 he was arrested for drunk driving ,but he always got off without any charges. From

the age of 16 till he was 21 his life was a elevator ride of drugs, alcohol and women.

When he turned 22 he founded a company that develops and tests technology from which he

made his own fortune but he didn't stop there, he also bought properties all around the world

and did business with royal families as well as presidents, he settled down at 25 after he met

his wife Jane, who became his right hand women, as a wedding gift he gave her the position of

CEO in his company along with shares with whom he has a son mike who lives abroad and is 6

"today is the day I am leaving" Thomas says to himself "3 months and nothing ,my body seems

healed but my mind still hides its identity from me" ,Doctor Kim Rogers walks in and asks "how

are you doing today Mr Thomas" ,Thomas responds politely with a smile ,Doctor Kim walks

him and examines Thomas head the says "the scars are barely visible"

she jots down something on her pad and asks "still no memories"and looks at Thomas as he

nods no, she then jots down again and then closes the pad and places it on the desk

"Mr Thomas" she says "I still have hopes that you will get back your memories but maybe you

should consider starting anew ,not many people have the opportunity to start over"suddenly

Thomas head starts ringing Doctor Kim asks him if he is okay and he says that he is fine and

that its just a headache then tells him to make sure he takes his medication

Jane walks in while talking on the phone ,Thomas thinks to himself and questions why doesn't

he feel anything towards his wife or his life he feels as though something other than his

memories are is missing,something precious but what could it be he wonders

Jane cuts the call and asks him if he is ready to leave, he stands up and they leave together.

Thomas exits the hospital as the sun touches his skin and he feels the warmth and gets Thomas

small grin ,he feels a familiarity then the sound comes rushing in as reporters start asking

questions and crowding them ,they then enter the car Thomas begins to feel the pain in his

head increasing ten fold Thomas reaches in his pocket and takes some pills ,Jane sitting next

to him asks "are you okay" he answers politely with a smile then rests his head on her shoulder

he notices how she seems shocked he thinks to himself and wonders about what kind of

relationship they have as he falls asleep . "I'm dreaming" Thomas says "its all a dream" as he

sits in the center of endless blackness with light flashes all around every time he tries to touch

it and his brain feels like exploding in pain ,he opens his eyes and is back resting his head on

his wife's shoulder ,he glances left to see her typing excessively he smirks for a second

admiring how hard she works ,the current relationship he has with his wife to him seems

distant and awkward . Thomas sits up and looks out the window as they

are approach house Thomas thinks that it is exactly like the pictures and feels nothing else

which is weird and makes him wonder what kind of person is he who feels absolutely nothing.

The day is bleak and the sun is hiding behind great waves of clouds as Thomas sits in his home

office staring at the outside he oddly finds comfort by seeing the outside being as bleak and

grey as he feels inside, its been 5 months since he had been in an accident that wiped his

memory clean, for the past month he has been searching his house for clues as to who he was

with the help of his butler Freddy who has been working for Thomas for 4 years and has always

looked after him ,Freddy had a rough past until he crossed paths with Thomas one night, since

then Freddy has been looking after Thomas and managing all things related to his house

according to Freddy, Thomas had a lot of secrets and always disappeared to no one knows

where he also spend most of his time in his study which no one was allowed except for Freddy

occasionally when it needed to be cleaned.

Thomas found it weird that not his wife nor his butler much information of who he was it

seems as though he trusted nobody and spent most of his time alone ,according to Freddy he

didn't even leave the house the night of the accident which Thomas found odd.

Freddy knocks on the door "Mr Thomas" he says "your lunch guest is here" Thomas stands up

and walks out slightly with haste ,he sits at his chair at the dining table and signals Freddy to

call his guest ,as his guest enters he tells Freddy to bring them something to drink ,

"hello Mr Brock I trust you are keeping well" Thomas says ,Mr Brock Thomas long time private

detective who Thomas hired a month after he had woken up from his coma, "so good to see

you after just talking on the phone so tell me" Thomas says , "what have you found"

Mr Brock answers that he is well and straight to the point he starts answering he starts with the

beginning by saying where Thomas was born then pauses and says "I couldn't find much"

Thomas tells him to continue then signals Freddy to bring the drinks and pour it Mr Brock takes

a sip then continues with not much information about Thomas past ,his school life ,his public

life and his public records along with associates and friends he then apologizes and tells him

that most of the information about him seems to have disappeared into thin air.

Thomas sitting quietly for a minute calls Freddy and writes down something then gives it to

him Freddy rushes to get something, Thomas then asks Mr Brock about the car Mr Brock takes

out another envelope and passes it to Thomas then says that "there was no sign of tampering"

Thomas takes the envelope and places it on the table Freddy comes next to Thomas and hands

him a envelope ,Thomas then gives Mr Brock the envelope ,Mr Brock gulps down his drink

stands up and takes the envelope he then turns to Mr Thomas and says "I am sorry for not

finding out more Mr Thomas" to which Thomas smiles and says "thank for your hard work".

Thomas now sitting in his study stares at the envelopes for about 10 minutes then picks up his

phone and calls his wife the phone rings then gets cut with Thomas message saying she's in a

meeting he stares at the envelope again then opens it,he stands up and walks out of his study

then turns around and goes back in.

Thomas gets a call back from his wife and plans a lunch date ,he gets ready to leave after

taking the envelope and heads out.

The restaurant was empty ,it seems like the entire restaurant was bought out for a private

lunch ,Thomas thinks to himself what should he do the words of Doctor Kim Rogers echoing in

his head ,what if he regrets what he learns about himself even to him he was already a

complicated and eccentric person and definitely not the best human and even though he feels

empty maybe he can fill that hole by doing good things ,by being good to his wife and forget

about the past like the Doctor said people wish for a fresh start and he got his slate wiped

clean. Shortly after his wife shows up and he gets up to seat her ,she sits and they order after

she asks how he has been doing ,a lot of things came as a shock to Thomas among them the

biggest was the fact that his wife does not live with him instead she lives in one of the hotels

that they own ,Thomas asks how she has been since its been days since he had spoken or seen

her ,she replies swiftly and well spoken everything she says is direct to the point and

informative almost like speaking to advanced robot or someone who didn't want to talk about

anything other than what was relevant ,they sit in silence for the remainder of the meal until

she gets a phone call and excuses herself.

Thomas looks at her as speaks on the phone wondering what could be so important he feels as

though work means more to her than him and this upsets him a bit, he contemplates whether

he should pursue his past or work on their relationship he also thinks about asking her why

their son wasn't staying with them but decides that now might not be the best time to bring

that up as she comes back to him, she tells him that she has to run for work and that it was fun

and they should meet again soon he controls telling her what was on his mind then greets and

she leaves. Thomas sits at the table for a while running through his thoughts until he is

interrupted by a waitress who comes to the table, he looks up and sees the waitresses red

lipstick his eyes are fixated on it to a point until she looks slightly uncomfortable his head

starts pounding and he feels light headed then closes his eyes ,when he opens his eyes he sees

the waitress and like a flash before his eyes he sees something or someone but it fills his heart

with pain and love until his chest feels heavy, the waitress still standing there and asks him if

his okay and if she should call someone. Thomas stands up and says "I am fine" then picks up

a glass of water and takes some painkillers after which he then walks out, he heads outside

and looks around then jumps into the car . Thomas starts wondering what was that he says to

himself "could it have been memory, well whatever it was it was definitely triggered by that

waitress" this made him sure that he had to find out about his past he wouldn't be able to rest

if he didn't he had to know who he keeps seeing glimpses of what if there was someone who

he had to remember ,someone who means something to him.

Thomas tells his driver John to take him to a cellphone repair shop then calls Freddy and tells

him to find the girl he saw at the restaurant the girl with the red lipstick who triggered a piece

of is memory and bring her to the house the car stops outside a mini mall, Thomas climbs out

and tells John that he wouldn't be long and heads inside,he finds a phone technician and

takes out the envelope he then takes out a completely smashed phone and hands it to the guy

,the technician slowly observes it the plugs it into a computer the technician waits for a few

minutes then says the phone is irreparable

Thomas then asks about the data on the phone the technician says that he cant do anything

since its not connecting but if Thomas would leave the phone there he could try to access its

memory but he cant guarantee anything ,Thomas feeling slightly disappointed decides to take

the phone and says "thank you but I think ill keep it" then leaves ,Thomas gets back in the car

and tells John to take him home as they drive he keeps looking at the broken phone he thinks

of the phone as himself he then says to himself "all the answers stuck inside with little to no

way of getting out". Thomas once again finds himself in the darkness of his mind trying to

catch the flashes of his memories when he awakes by hearing "excuse me Mr Thomas" the

driver John tells him "but we have reached home" Thomas opens his eyes and exits the car

then tells John to wait for another hour to take back the waitress that was waiting for him back

and says "you can take the rest of the day off after that" ,he walks in the house where he sees

Freddy waiting for him at the entrance and tells him that the woman from the restaurant is

there they walk to the lounge where Freddy told the woman to wait as Thomas enters the

room he notices that she had wiped of her lipstick he wonders why but seems to already know

that its probably because she felt uncomfortable .

Thomas walks up to the waitress who introduces herself as Alex she reminded him of

something he has lost or he never had once again he had too many questions but no answers

he walks over and sits next to her and looks at her for a moment then asks her if she knows him

Alex looking slightly flustered answers soft tone says "aren't you the owner of the restaurant"

he looks at her and sees clearly that she had never met him before today he then stands up

walks then turns around and says "would you like to work for me Alex"

she looks up at him then down again Thomas then calls Freddy and says "this is Alex and she

will be working for me from now"Freddy looks for Thomas second baffled then says "yes sir"

Thomas then tells Freddy to make sure she is looked after and leaves to go to his study.

Thomas sits down at his desks closes his eyes and tries to look for answers he then opens it

and looks around as if to find a secret that he has hidden, he looks around a couple of times

then looks again another few times and sees nothing that that looks completely out of place ,

he then takes out the phone and begins observing it ,he puts it down on the desk then picks up

a piece of paper and a pen and starts to write down what he knows after a few minutes he

picks up the paper and looks at it then squashes it in frustration, he then picks up the phone

again then does a search on his computer and starts to write down a list of items to get ,he calls

Freddy and hands him the paper then tells him to get the items as soon as possible.

Thomas feeling frustrated starts taking apart everything in his office looking searching for

some answers until Freddy knocks on the door and enters Thomas looks at him then asks him

if he got the items and to bring it to him

Freddy looks around at the mess Thomas looks at Freddy then tells him "that's all" Freddy says

"yes sir and if you need help ill be happy help you look for whatever you need" Thomas looks

at Freddy then says "I am hungry get me a sandwich" Freddy heads out

Thomas walks to the bags Freddy brought in then takes out what the tools to fix a phone, he

empties the items onto his desk and begins working on fixing the phone ,he knows that this

could give him the answers he could be looking for .

Thomas once again sitting in the darkness of his mind trying to catch memories and open the

doors of his mind but unable to unlock his memories when suddenly he hears knock on his

door and Freddy enters slowly he picks up the tray with the food from yesterday as Thomas

opens his eyes and asks Freddy "what is the time" Freddy replies saying "its midday sir"

Thomas then stretches and stands up ,he then asks Freddy to get his clothes ready Freddy

heads out Thomas takes some of his medication and heads out of his office and to his room

Thomas tells Freddy not to clean his office then gets done and heads out to the car where John

is waiting for him as he exits he notices someone in the corner of his eye he looks at Freddy

then asks "how is Alex doing" Freddy says "well sir" Thomas then jumps in and leaves.

John has been driving for almost an hour with no destination Thomas looks out the window as

the scenery passes he closes his eyes and focuses on the ever fleeting memory of that beautiful

someone that keeps flashing before his eyes but he can never see properly

he opens his eyes to the view of a air plane passing by then turns his head and tells John to get

the jet ready to leave . Thomas arrives at his private hanger with his private plane ready to

leave he exits the car and walks to the stairs where he is greeted by the pilot Rob who seems to

know Thomas well and says"how are you doing Mr Thomas its been long" Thomas smiles and

goes with it he enters the jet and sits down the pilot Rob comes and sits next to him Thomas

thinks that either this pilot is someone who is very comfortable around people or the more

likely scenario which is that Rob must have been a friend of his past self.

Rob starts speaking about all kinds of things like his wife and where his been since he last saw

Mr Thomas ,Thomas thinks how irrelevant theses conversations are but stays considerate and

listens until Rob says "so where to Mr Thomas are we going to paradise again" this struck

Thomas as odd because in all his flight rosters and plans he never came across a place called

paradise ,Thomas answers no then says "we are going to see my son" the pilot Rob enters the

cockpit and starts the engine this made one thing clear to Thomas that Rob really knew him or

the old him. Thomas once again in the darkness of his mind starts searching until once again is

woken by slight turbulence ,the air hostesses walk up to Thomas and asks if he would like

something to drink ,he answers by saying water, he then takes out his medication and drinks

the water he then stands up and heads to the front of the plane ,Rob turns to look at Thomas

as he sits down in the empty co pilot seat Rob then says "are you flying today" Thomas looks

with a puzzled look then answers "not today" its clear Thomas thinks to himself as he looks at

the horizon its full of nothingness ,completely beautiful nothingness then turns to Rob and

asks "how often did we go to paradise" Rob looks at Thomas and says "you joking" and laughs

Thomas is expressionless quickly Rob says "often very often" Thomas says "its just since the

accident things have been a bit fuzzy" Rob then says "yeah I heard about that" and seems

sympathetic they then sit in silence for a minute until Thomas says "so paradise" to which Rob

quickly answers "yes well paradise is what we call your island and we used to travel there for

weeks at a time" Thomas then asks "did we go by ourselves" Rob looks at Thomas puzzled

once more then says "yes sir always alone" Thomas looks at his pilot who cant make eye

contact then says "well how long until we reach" Rob once again with a smile says 5 hours then

says "why don't you go rest ill send the hostess to wake you before we reach".

Thomas heads to the back of the plane to the plane room and lays down until he starts drifting

once again into the darkness when he hears a knock he says come in he looks up and the air

hostesses enter while wearing red lipstick he looks for a moment then says "what is it?" the air

hostesses say the pilot sent them to ask if he needs anything Thomas politely refuses and they

leave ,Thomas thinks to himself again with the red lipstick he distinctly remembers them not

wearing red lipstick earlier Thomas falls asleep thinking of the red lipstick and what is its

significance ,at least for the first time he has a lead and all he has to do now is find out

everything the pilot Rob knows . Thomas wakes up a few hours later and calls for the air

hostess to no response he exits the room and sees no one he looks out the window and sees

that they are still in the air, he then rushes to the cockpit and sees no pilot, no Rob he thinks

for a moment then closes his eyes thinking he must still be dreaming ,he then opens them

again he is now sure this is not a dream but what could have happened he jumps into the pilots

seat but having no idea what to do he quickly tries the radio and notices that the wire been cut

sabotage Thomas thinks to himself he looks around to find a parachute and finds nothing

except a note written "sorry Mr Thomas" he takes moment to breathe it seems like this is the

end for him then ,he rushes back to the cockpit with no other option he looks for a manual but

finds nothing as the plane seems to be running out of fuel ,he quickly determines his location

and the closest place he can land lucky for him he still is over water which he thinks is still not

great and like a muscle memory he grabs the joystick and starts to pilot the plane as he slowly

descends the plane starts shaking and vibrating and splash straight into the water the plane

flips an the wing breaks of everything goes dark, Thomas is once more inside the darkness of

his mind only this time a door appears with a light and possibly the answers to all his

questions unfortunately this was not the time for self discovery it was time of self survival after

all he had a wife and kid to get back to so he cant die Thomas thinks to himself "I cant die" and

with all his might he wakes up to the plane sinking to the bottom of the ocean and filling up

with water he quickly finds himself acting without thinking and finds a way to exit just barely

making it to the surface to catch his breath. Thomas starts laughing uncontrollably everything

starts to hit him at once the fact that he almost died and that the only person he has seen that

had known the past him just tried to kill him, he also found it hilarious that this was probably

how he was going to die and that he should have chosen different and that maybe this was his

punishment for a crime he had no knowledge of or for choosing to find himself maybe he was a

bad person and bad people should not be alive he then screams looking at the sky as if to

scream at his creator he screams "why me"then begins to cry. Thomas was now drifting on a

piece of plane debris for a couple of hours thinking death would be better and wondering what

comes after, he finds it odd that he didn't think about what comes after since he woke up and

now it is his only thought, while feeling dehydrated ,hungry and weak he wonders who up

there is watching him ,who up there would he finally get to meet once he meets his imminent

end which right about now would be easy ,"oh how easy it would be to drift into the darkness

and let it consume me" ,death cannot be answer not yet Thomas thinks ,if nothing else he

needs to see his son , he says "that's it my sun" as he looks at the sun setting ... Thomas falls

unconscious. The sound of helicopter blades wake him up as he opens his eyes he sees men in

an army uniform then slowly drifts into a unconscious slumber

Thomas is back in his fortress of darkness only now he cant see no flashes no matter how

much he searches he cant see anything just darkness ,Thomas wonders is this death "could I

finally be dead" he says to himself "maybe death is all I wanted, maybe I tried to kill myself in

that car crash" Thomas sits down in his darkness almost like giving up ,finally resting his heavy

head when suddenly a shadow appears, he wonders for a second then just ignores it after all

what would a shadow be doing in nothingness the thought was too crazy to even think about

,when out of nowhere a mirror appears Thomas stands up and walks towards it ,every time he

gets close the mirror seems to drift further away, Thomas begins getting frustrated and starts

chasing after it when finally he gets a glimpse, what he sees is himself his other self that looks

at him then smirks taunting him as if he were a joke.

Thomas opens his eyes and sees two paddles on his chest which feels like tons of weight on his

chest ,he is greeted by a general who addresses him by his name

one thing is clear from this is that the other him was powerful and had many powerful friends

Thomas is then escorted from the private base to a army plane that is sent back to his home on

the plane he manages to make a phone call to his wife who seems to have no knowledge and

in fact thinks he is home, she even asks if he wants her to stop by which he says "there's no

need" Thomas contemplated whether he should let his wife know everything that has

happened, at first he didn't want to worry her but now it seems after recent events that he cant

trust anyone not until he finds out why he was almost killed

Thomas finally back home retreats to his office,before he can continue to find himself he must

find the pilot Rob a task that should have been easy enough and yet was somehow impossible

since there was no pilot named Rob on any flight schedule ,in fact the pilot that was supposed

to take him was found dead shortly after Thomas had left ,he also found nothing regarding this

mysterious paradise it seems the more he dug into this matter the less made sense ,he

wondered who could be powerful enough to wipe someone off the face of the earth like he

never existed ,Thomas mind was in shambles he hasn't slept or eaten for days and his

questions seemed to have more questions and he had made no progress on the

phone ,he even stopped trying all he did was lay on the floor and stared at the ceiling which

had a beautiful mural painted of life and death hanging on a scale tipping slightly in favor life

as he wondered what the old Thomas saw as he looked at the mural did he see the beauty or

the imperfection or if he saw it as perfection, even now he feels like it all doesn't belong to him

he feels like a thief who has stolen entirely someone's life and that someone is who he'll see

when he closes his eyes that someone who can threaten his very existence that someone who

can see right through him, he looks up and sees life and death ,him and himself without one

the other does not exist .

Thomas stands up and heads out of his office he calls for Freddy and tells him to call the Doctor

he notices how happy Freddy looks that he has finally come out and wonders where does

Freddy's loyalties lie what would Freddy do for him after all he has no history with Freddy in

fact he has no history with anyone everything all belongs to the other him

he gets done around the same time the Doctor comes "Doctor Kim Rogers welcome" Thomas

says and he heads over to greet her "so good to see you ,please have Thomas seat" Thomas

says Doctor Kim Rogers takes a seat and Thomas lays down Doctor Kim Rogers smiles and says

"I am not that kind of Doctor Mr Thomas" Thomas smiles then starts to talk telling her of the

mirror he saw and how he feels like he is taking the place of the other him ,the other him who

would not be happy to see him take over his life ,he goes on to say how he feels worried of

what would happen to him if he gets his memories back and if he would just disappear surely

after everything they cant be the same person.

Doctor Kim Rogers with a smile says "again I am not that kind of Doctor but from what I heard

it seems like you need to get some rest if you continue like this you could start having

delusions and that could be potentially dangerous for you and everyone around you" she also

says "it sounds like you might be scared of yourself ,your other self scared that he might hurt if

you go back to your mind palace ,which is absurd because you are yourself there aren't two of

you just simply a you that doesn't remember yourself to put it simply hypothetically even if

you get back your memories, everything that has happened since the accident wont simply

disappear or be overwritten it would simply just be ,however while you cant change the past

but you can block it out" she then takes out her prescription pad and hands him a piece of

paper then says "take these twice a day and the chances of you remembering the past reduce

drastically". Thomas sits up and looks somewhat relieved he then thanks Doctor Kim Rogers

and walks her out he looks at the piece of paper Doctor Kim Rogers gave him then heads inside

he calls for Freddy and tells him to send dinner to his study and hands him the paper and tells

him to get his medication then heads to his study ,everything Doctor Kim Rogers told made

more sense that what was going through his head and of course he had nothing to fear in fact

he thought to himself how absurd it was being scared of a idea of fiction ,he comes to the

conclusion it was just paranoia of the incident and that once he found the pilot Rob who does

not exist he would feel better ,Thomas once again sitting in his office starts to work on the

phone which to his surprise is coming along well almost as if someone else had been

fixing it while he was away .Thomas calls for Freddy and asks him if anyone else came in the

office while he had not been around Freddy answers "no one sir" Thomas decides that he once

again is just being paranoid .

Alex enters the office with a dinner platter Thomas tells Freddy give them a moment and

Freddy leaves, Alex puts down the platter on the side table and slowly walks out Thomas looks

at her then tells her to sit ,Alex sits Thomas asks her if she is finding the work okay she quietly

nods her head, Thomas notices her look around at the mess he created then says " I am just

searching for something from before I lost my memories" she softly says " oh okay" while

looking down Thomas then asks her if she would help him clean up once again she nods

quietly he then tells her to come back to see him tomorrow.

Thomas is starting to get tired but is stubborn about sleeping he still harbors some fear about

seeing the other him he looks over to the tablets Doctor Kim Rogers prescribed and

contemplates whether or not he should take it ,he finally decides not to, his memories still hold

the answers to most of his questions.

Thomas continues to work on the phone and finally makes some progress he looks at the time

and sees its almost morning ,the file transfer will still take a few hours he takes this time to take

a walk to get fresh he finds himself in the kitchen with the fridge open and looks at the light

which starts to get blurry he closes his eyes for a second and drifts off to sleep.

Thomas wakes up in his room on his bed and stares at the ceiling he quickly jumps up

confused about how he got there the last thing he remembers was the phone he quickly rushes

to his study to find Alex cleaning the room, he gets startled but moves past that and heads

straight to his computer which shows the file transfer complete ,he sighs with relief then greets

Alex and politely asks her to give him a moment alone ,Alex leaves the room.

Thomas sits down and holds his head wondering what happened how did he get to his room

and more importantly why didn't he see himself when he was asleep he looks at the time and

sees its already afternoon ,how could he have gotten to his bed when he has no memory of it.

He decides to call Doctor Kim Rogers and explains the events leading from the night before,

Doctor Kim Rogers tells him that its probably due to his sudden onset of insomnia then tells

him how sometimes the mind goes onto autopilot due to exhaustion and that it was probably

that ,she also tells him that a common side effect of the medication she prescribed may cause

sleepwalking. Thomas feeling slightly relieved hangs up the call and looks around for the

medication bottle but cant seem to find it he calls Freddy to ask him if he had seen the bottle of

medication and Freddy brings it to him and says "it was in the kitchen" Thomas now

remembers he was in the kitchen looking at the fridge light but that's all he remembers in fact

he doesn't even remember picking up the bottle much less taking a pill Thomas then tells

Freddy to bring him water then says "send Alex with the water and tell her not enter the office if

I'm not here and don't be harsh" Freddy responds with "yes sir".

Thomas looks at the computer to start looking at the files he clicks on it and a pop-up saying

enter password appears , "another obstacle" Thomas mutters to himself "and of course, why

would anything ever be easy with you" he says speaking to himself as Alex walks in looking at

him weirdly he looks at her and smiles then says softly "I'm not crazy" Alex looks defensive

then says that she never thought that Thomas smiles again and says "don't worry sometimes I

think I'm crazy" he then says I see you started cleaning she quickly apologizes saying she

thought Thomas stops her then says "its fine" Alex then starts cleaning, Thomas stands up to

help her and he asks her what does she think of him she grudgingly says nothing he sees this

and says "its fine speak freely" she then says "you are nicer than the papers say" Thomas then

says "I see you've done some research on me" she quickly retracts and he says "no its fine its a

good thing" then asks her "what else" she says that he was known for being a ruthless and

fearless power monger he looks at her a bit shocked and asks "where did she hear this" she

then says "mostly rumors from the restaurant where I worked" she then says "you were known

to have different women everyday" he smirks she then continues to say " it must have been

false because I haven't seen any women around since I started working for you" he smiles she

then goes further to say " I haven't even seen your wife since I started working for you"

Thomas gets slightly defensive by saying "she's always working and its hard to manage a big

company" then stops and just continues to help her clean up the mess.

Alex continues to clean and Thomas helps her then looks at her and says "my wife is busy

running a company and she does not have the time" he then stops and says "never mind" Alex

smiles softly which leads Thomas to smile ,they continue packing the the things all through

lunch.

Thomas calls for Freddy then asks Alex what would she like to eat she politely says that she is

okay, Freddy comes and Thomas tells him to bring some burgers and fries for him and Alex

,Freddy brings the food then leaves he tells Alex to stop working and to take have a seat, they

then eat ,after the work they did ,they both seem pretty hungry Thomas thinks to himself how

he this is the first meal he is enjoying since the coma which leads him to smile. Alex clumsily

drops the drink and they both head down to clean the mess as the drink starts spreading

underneath the desk so Thomas starts to push it unknowingly it reveals a hidden safe, he

stands up quickly and tells Alex to leave ,he then sits down and holds his head and starts

beating himself up for not working harder on finding answers he thinks of Alex and justifies his

feeling by stating that the reason he has taken well to her is because there was no history

before him Alex only knows the new him , if his wife,Freddy and John belong to the other him

then Alex belongs to him or at least knows only this version of him and that is enough he feels

like he is going crazy. Thomas after spending weeks trying to open the safe by trying every

combination he can and even bringing in a safe expert has had no luck getting it open

the frustration was starting to get to him and if it wasn't for seeing Alex everyday he would

have lost his mind.

Thomas acknowledges that he might have feelings for Alex but hasn't acted upon it ,he decides

if he was going to do anything he would first have to discuss with his wife and get permission

from his son. Alex also started developing feelings for Thomas and this started to worry Freddy

unfortunately Freddy couldn't do anything without betraying Thomas.
