He should have been confident, believing I wouldn't forget anything about him. But now, doubt flickered across his face. If someone truly wanted to forget, how could they possibly remember?

Nicholas realized that if what I said was true, the only explanation was that I had chosen to forget him, and that hurt more than the idea of me simply forgetting with time.

He remembered every little detail about me, down to the baby hairs on my forehead. He had even instructed a tattoo artist to ink my portrait onto his skin. So, how could I not even remember his phone number?

He wanted to ask me these questions, but he swallowed them all down. He had already made too many mistakes in front of me today, losing his composure too often.
