Don’t ask me how or why I have them – or even if any of them are real – because I don’t know. I don’t know much of anything. All I know is those men want me dead. For reasons still unknown to me. So I’ll run. And I’ll keep running until I can piece my fractured mind back together. But how do you go about remembering the things that most people already know?
