"You are him. "

"I am not."

"You are his body but no longer have the memories. "

"Yes." Jona sighs, placing his head in his hands.

"Look. You got out of wherever you were being held. If it was me, if I had truly become that depraved and insane, there's no way in hell you'd have gotten out of there in that condition. You'd have been much worse."

"Well you did."

"Did what? Torture you? I'm saying, that wasn't me."

"Unless you have a twin, it was you. "

"Not me. I explained this. Memories make a person. I have no memory of what you're telling me. So I am not that person."

"You are that person memories or not. "

"So I can't change in your eyes? I am not allowed to be seen as anything but an enemy?" Jona says in disgust.

"I thought you, being a psychology major, would understand how flawed that is, but no, apparantly not."

"Things change, people, thoughts and opinions. "

Jona looks up.

"So then do you think that it is possible that I have changed? Do you think it is possible that I have no memory of any of the things I supposedly did to you?"

"It could be possible but I wouldn't know why. "

"Neither would I. If I was actually that type of person, I'm sure I would remember whatever it is I did to you."

"It depends on what happened to you too make you forget. "

"Yeah, well. . . not sure it's anything I can reverse. After all, if it can affect me, I sure as hell won't be able to get rid of it. I'm not that good."

"You can't reverse it. " she said coldly

Jona sighs and stands up, gathering air beneath him and then jumping so that he's floating in front of Eve.

"No, I can't." he says, his tone Arctic.

Eve yelped and jumped back "are you crazy?! "

"Maybe. I was locked up and tortured for years on end, and I watched a lot of my own family die." Jona replies.

"That…. I'm sorry. "

"Exactly. So could you blame if I was crazy? No matter how bad you had it, Eve, I had it worse. Even if I did snap and torture you, do you think you'd be alive to talk about it right now? No, you wouldn't. That's how I know it wasn't me as I am now. As I am now, I wouldn't even kill a spider."

"It's not my fault. "

Jona sighs and lands again, sitting down and bringing his knees to his chest.

"I know. . . I'm just. . . done. With being treated like I'm a weirdo, a freak."

"Well.. I just… I'm sorry. "

"Don't apologize. It's not something you have to apologize for." Jona replies.

"Anyways, I'll go now. I've said basically what I wanted to say. You'll know how to contact me if you want to, though I doubt you will."

He gets up and starts walking away.

"I- don't know how to contact you. "

Jona turns his head slightly.

"You will."

"What does that mean? "

Jona turns his head away and starts walking again.

That night, a letter appears in Eve's mail: unsigned, unmarked. It had a phone number, and nothing else.
