I've Forgotten - Part 3

“Think. Try to think back, Laurel. You know that house. You know the reason for your pain. Think!”
Tears were pouring from my eyes and my hands which were clutching the sheet shot up to clutch my head. “I don’t know!!! I don’t know!” I cried. “I can’t remember why! Please stop! It hurts!” It was true too. The pain that I remember swelling in my chest in my memory was swelling now. Flashes of the house, me sitting in my car on the driveway, inside on the couch, and brown eyes kept cycling through. I gave another cry, “Please make it stop!” I couldn’t see anything besides the constant flashes and the brown eyes. Everything was moving fast and becoming blurry: Everything but those brown eyes that just stared at me.
“Laurel!” It was the doctor’s voice. I felt someone grab my wrists prying my hands from my head. “Laurel! Snap out of it! Laurel!” I tried to focus on the voice but something else was getting in the way. Something that I needed to know was pushing itself to the forefront of my mind.
“I promised… I promised to remember… Always remember…” The heart monitor was going out of control and the doctor and nurse were screaming for help. I was pushed down till I was lying back on the bed. My arms were still pinned to my side and I just stared blankly forward. “I made a promise… and I forgot…”A tear slipped from the corner of my eye as everything shut off.
