the lost of one week memories.

she woke up finding herself lock up in a room. she looked around and realise everything around her was dark and she could not see a thing. trying to get out, she uses her strength to stand up and look for a way to get out. suddenly, a voice spoke up. " there's no way we can get out." she was shocked and turned around. a 60 year old looking man was sitting behind her on the ground. " is you! why are we here?! where is this place?!" she shouted. The old man replied,"we got kidnapped."

Suddenly, a door open. 9 men were standing infront of them with guns on their hands. Jessica and Thisted stayed side by side with each other immediately after they saw the gun. "What do you all want from us?!" they remain silent and threw two bowls of rice into the room and locked it up after that. Jessica and Thisted recalled, one week ago, they came to Somalia for a volunteering work. They were about to leave and were on their way to the airport in Galkayo when suddenly, someone hit hard on their back of their head. And that's when they went into coma.

Galkayo is seperated into two different section. A northern section under the control of the semi autonomous region of Puntland, and a southern section under the control of the Galmudug clan. Jessica and Thisted were kidnapped when they crossed into the southern side of the town and were abducted there.

back to now, both of them were traumatize after recalling. They do not know if they can leave this place alive or not. however, they still need energy if one day they manage to escape. without hesitating, they picked up the bowl of rice and ate them immediately. after eating, there was nothing they can do. all they can do was to sit down in the dark room and pray, hoping someone will come for their rescue. eventually, both of them fell asleep due to tiredness.

not long later, they heard a loud bang and gun's shooting outside the room. they woke up immediately and tries to listen what's happening outside the room. in few minutes time, the sounds outside the room disappear. in the next moment, they heard loud bangs outside the room and people screaming," anyone inside!" after hearing this, they screamed back immediately. "YES! PLEASE SAVE US!"

in a split second, the door was bang opened. at that moment, they immediately recognized they are the US millitary rescue force. they are here for them!

few hours time, the both of them reached U.S and finally met up with their family.

things had changed ever since that day...

jess and lyn were always hanging out tgt.
they got to know each other thru a marathon run.
that day,
was a world wide marathon run competition.
jess came in first while Lyn was second.
after the run, there was a after dinner.
Jess and Lyn sat tgt and started chatting happily.
they realise, both of them have similar hobbies and interest.
both of them love running, mountain climbing and more.

soon,
they became best friends.
they even went to the same school for their university.

one day,
they decided to go for mountain climbing together.
before that night,
they both were so excited,
as this is their first time going for a climb together.
they went to stores and got their necessaries.

the next day,
they met up at the station and took the bus
to the bottom of the mountain.

after getting off the bus,
they started their journey up to the top of the mountain.
As both of them has good stamina,
climbing up wasn't a difficult task for them.
it took them 3 hours to reach the top of the mountain
when others need half of the day.

they found a good spot and sat down.
taking out the food that they bought the previous night,
they started eating.
they rested for an hour and decided to head home.
suddenly,
Jess suggested to walk from the other route which she thinks
is shorter.
Lyn tries to tell Jess not to, but Jess promised lyn that she will
get them back down the mountain before the night falls.
so they started their way down.

after walking for 1 hour, they realised that they are lost,
and the route seems harder to walk compared to the previous
route they had took.

Lyn starts to get tired and slowed down.
Jess was leading and did not realise that Lyn was at the back.
Lyn picked up her speed and manage to catch up with Jess.

who knows,
Jess did not realise Lyn was just right behind her and so she turned back
without looking carefully.

in just a split second,
Lyn was hanging on the side of the cliff.
Jess was shocked and tried to pull Lyn up,
but was not successful.

in just a moment,
jess was screaming for help at the top of her voice
and her pair of eyes staring fearfully at Lyn,
lying at the bottom of the cliff.

the next day, both of them was lying the hospital unconsciously.
Jess was the first to wake up.
immediately, she run to Lyn's room and take a look at her.

the sight was horrifying.

Lyn is still in a coma.
Jess slowly walked over to Lyn.

her family was standing around her waiting for her to wake up.
lyn's mother saw jess walking in.
immediately, she turns and pushed jess away.
"GET OUT!"
Jess was stummed.
she did not know what happen.
lyn's mother started crying.
Jess walked forward and hold on to lyn's mother
and asked what had happen.

Lyn's mum stood up, pushed jess away from her
and walked towards lyn's bed.
she pulled away the blanket that was covered on lyn.

Jess fell onto the ground immediately.
the sight shocked her.
Lyn is lying on the bed,
but with only one leg left.

Jess begged lyn's mother to tell her what happen.

lyn's mother stumbled and said," if you did not bring her for mountain climbing,
she will not fall. the doctor said that, when she fell, one of her legs was hit onto the ground. her bone was hit too hard and cant be healed. the blood is clot on the knee and below. if they dont dismembered her leg, they might have to cut off the thighs too."

after telling jess what had happen, lyn's mother sat down restlessly.
hearing all this, jess could not take it and ran out of the room.

for a few days, jess could not faced lyn at all.
not even stepping into her room.

one week later, jess is discharged from the hospital.
but until the last day, jess still did not went and take a look at lyn.
what she did was leaving a letter to the nurse and asked about lyn's condition.
the nurse told jess that lyn is alrgt.
her condition is stable but she refused to talk to anyone.

one year passed.
jess and lyn did not contact at all.

on a sunday,
jess was walking in a park that she and lyn always head down
almost everyday after class.
she sat down on a bench and stared in space.

suddenly, someone sat beside her but she did not really take a look at it.
for a while later,
jess stood up and took a glances at the person.
she stops.

it was lyn.
she gave jess a smile and stretch out her hand
to pulled jess back to the bench lightly.
she took out the letter that jess gave to her and started reading:

i know at this time, you will not want to see me.
i do not hav the courage to face you too.
i just wanna apologise for what happen,
maybe a sorry is useless now.
it cant get ur leg back.
if time can be turned back, i hope the person was me
that fall and not u.
im really sorry for not able to pulled u back.
i tried my best. i really did.
but i just lose the strength.
im really really sorry.
i will not forgive myself.
so from now on,
i will leave,
from ur life.
but u will always be my best friend and nobody else.

jess cries when hearing lyn reading out the letter.

the letter did not end here.

" i had already forgiven u. i know u tried. u tried hard to pull me back and i know it. i felt it." lyn told jess.

jess pulled lyn to her and hugged her tightly.
"thank you, really thank you!" jess cried and said.

the letter flown...


from now on,
i will be ur pair of legs, i will run for u, climb the mountain for u, ride for u.
no matter how hard it is, i will be there to bring ur faith along.
no matter are u there to support me or not,
i will still be there for u and be ur legs.
no matter how hard or difficult it is, promise me, u will stand up.
i know u can.
i will support u in my heart like how u will be supporting me.

and this is,
the last part of the letter.
