Billion dollar stalker

Eradella is found

"Noooo" screaming out into the darkness off my bedroom. I sit up drenched in sweat same dream I have had for the past 3 years since I was found at the edge of Misty Creek here in the catskill mountains New York. No memory, no clue how I got there, all I have is these dreams. A fight with a man who I never see his face its dark he hits me we are standing on a bridge and I try to run away I get to the edge of the railing he backhands me and the railing gives way I fall screaming towards the cold dark water below all I see is his arm reaching out to try and grab me but I fall deeper and deeper and I wake up as soon as I hit the water every time. I get out of bed the cold floor feels amazing on my bare feet I stumble tward the balcony door open it up and gasp as the cold brisk air flows over my body. For three years I have been without a single memory and been stuck wondering I'm starting to wonder if the therapist Dr. Fields is right perhaps it's time to move on. Jeremy won't be happy with my decision if I choose to leave but I feel like I can't hold on anymore maybe if I leave this nightmare will end and I can move on. Having enough of the cold I walk back inside and look at the clock 4am I'm meeting Jeremy at 8am for breakfast I have time to go back to sleep so I lay back down and drift off.

I look at my watch again for the sixth time 8:45 she is late again I smile knowing that she is always late but worth the wait today is a special day. I think back to the day I met Eradella, Duke my curious chocolate lab kept pulling the leash and as luck would have it the clip broke and off he went tward the edge of the river I run after him and try to keep him from going in the water last thing I want is a muddy wet dog in the fall after all. I stop suddenly and see the reason he has been frantic to get to the river. I run over and pull a petite red head in cocktail dress off the bank I check to see if she is still alive. Her shallow breath and pulse are enough I wrap her in my coat and walk back to my Jeep. When she awoke in the hospital with no memories and no one claimed her . I felt compelled to take responsibility for her an orphan myself I've did what I could to help including giving her a job in my general store I fell in love with her after only two years this today marks three years since I found her.

"Hey sorry I'm late" I can see I interrupted his thoughts but he just smiles up at me with award winning smile like always. My stomach is in knots he has always been so kind since day one and I do love him but I'm going to go away. "That was an intense look you had when I was walking up, what's on your mind?"

His look softened and he said " I was thinking about the day I found you, how lucky it was that Duke got loose." My eyes well up with tears as I know that I'm about to hurt him but I've made up my mind." Jeremy, I'm moving away, Dr Field's suggested that I get away and start over the nightmares haven't stopped and , and he feels that by getting out of my comfortable surroundings I may have a better chance to remember, I'm sorry. I appreciate everything you have done and I love you but I need to know who I am." He just looked at me he didn't say anything he modded his head and walked away that isn't the response I expected not from him but maybe it's for the best. I sat there for another min then I decide to get up and walk away to my car all my belongings are packed up inside. Mrs. Laura stops me and says " if you ever want to come back you will always be welcome " I smile and hug my landlady bye and thank her.
