Eight years had passed since my fiancé, Daniel, vanished on our wedding day. I never expected to cross paths with him again, especially not as a homeless man on the streets of New York.
During a nostalgic trip to the city, I reunited with old friend Eric and indulged in the vibrant energy of New York. However, my past caught up with me when I stumbled upon Daniel, now unkempt and begging.
His explanation left me reeling: two men, allegedly sent by my father, abducted and beat him, erasing his memory. Daniel’s eyes begged me to believe him.
We shared a meal, and his words painted a picture of a shattered life. Forces beyond his control had reduced the man I once loved to this.
I struggled to process the truth, unsure what to believe. Our encounter ended with unanswered questions.
Upon returning to Eric’s apartment, I revealed the shocking encounter. Eric’s concern and offer to stay another day were tempting, but I needed to confront my father.
The conversation with my father exposed his involvement in Daniel’s disappearance. He claimed he paid Daniel to leave, but his defensive tone betrayed him.
Feeling betrayed, I ended the call. My thoughts swirled, and I decided to extend my stay in New York to uncover more truth.
But fate dealt another blow: my purse, left on the bench during our conversation, was gone. Had Daniel stolen it? His words now seemed like a fabrication.
A bystander’s concern broke my trance. I rose, determined to move forward despite the past’s ugly head rearing up.
