Mary didn’t like the fact that the local hospital in Addison was the only place in the world she knew in absolute detail. Four long months of it being her home, and having no memories of her past meant that she had a lot of time to learn every turn, every corridor, even a lot of the patients. Now, she was living in the house they had found in her name, and she had to get used to everything all over again. It was a tiring process, and she felt so lost during it all. She couldn’t remember people, events, she couldn’t even remember her own parents, or her horses, though the latter definitely remembered Mary. Visiting the barn had been hard, it was frustrating, seeing their recognition but having no recollection of them in the slightest.

Now she was back, she had to check in weekly for a few months, then gradually ease off depending on how well they thought she was doing. Wandering unconsciously up to the ward she was meant to be in, letting her feet take her there, not really paying too much attention to where she was going, she could probably walk there in her sleep, if she tried.

Eventually she found herself sitting on a row of empty chairs, outside where her appointment was meant to take place. It didn’t actually start for a while yet, she had just arrived early, not wanting to be late, and not wanting to get lost. She had ended up walking to the hospital, finding out that it wasn’t too far from her home, and she tried to avoid having to call a cab when she could, since she hadn’t been given the all clear to drive on her own yet, plus, automobiles made her nervous now, the mechanical contraption had taken away her memories, put her in a coma and had pretty much caused her to have to restart her life all over again. Of course she didn’t like them much now.

Biting her bottom lip softly, she stared at the opposite wall, feeling boredom slowly begin to creep its way in.
