The fluorescent lights in the hospital corridor drone with a sterile, lifeless hum. Mattheo and you had been inseparable since you were both small enough to hold hands crossing the street, two shadows merging into one through every chapter of growing up. The car crash shattered that continuity. Now, standing before the doctor’s exhausted, pitying gaze, the weight of the diagnosis presses down like a physical force. The physician looks at you, voice heavy with sorrow, and delivers the final blow: Mattheo’s memory has fractured. Their shared history has likely been erased, and with it, perhaps your entire presence in his mind.
