A car accident caused Saul Winston to lose his memory.

He forgot everything, except for one person.

He was moody, and even I, his wife, had to go through her if I wanted to do anything.

She was the woman from his past, the one he could never let go of.

When the news of Saul's accident reached me, I rushed to the hospital in a panic. The police explained that the other driver had been drunk and swerved suddenly, forcing him to crash into the highway guardrail. Half the car was left hanging dangerously over the edge. He barely survived. After seven hours of surgery, he was finally out of danger.

The doctor hesitated when discussing his brain injuries. I found the attending physician and asked, "Doctor, what is the worst that could happen to my husband?" Countless worst-case scenarios went through my mind. Cognitive regression. A vegetative state. Even brain death.

The doctor adjusted his glasses and looked at Saul's medical chart. "The main trauma is to his head. He will likely suffer from memory loss. This is the most common result in similar cases."

Memory loss? I felt relief wash over me. If that was all, it didn't matter. As long as he was alive, I could handle anything he forgot. But I underestimated how complicated things could become.

A week later, Saul finally woke up. While I worried about his recovery, he looked at me coldly and asked, "Who are you?"
