Re: Losing My Memory

ea,

Quote:
I passed a young woman standing by a taxi cab. She had her pump heel in her left hand and was pulling her hair so that her head flopped backward. A couple of old ladies were passing her and they commented on how goofy she looked. Rubes! I snorted. The young woman was obviously taking an international call on her implanted phone. Those old ladies had no idea how silly they sounded!
Absolutely loved this foreshadowing.

I smiled at the memory. Off to my right, there used to be a stand where, as a kid, I bought ice cream and sodas with my lunch money. I stopped where I was and stared. The old stone facing was still there. Ivy still grew up the wooden wickerwork at the front. The rusting, old-time waterpump still stood off to the side. The wet cement at it's base brought back hot summer days, ice-cream, and water balloon fights.
This is a great story, I love how after loosing his chip he gets his real memory back. Wonder which one of your peices I'm gonning to find next? I'm sure It will be a treat!
