"No one did. No one in the pens knew what was going on. We'd all been taken from somewhere. I don't know what they did to Alex and Joseph, but neither of them recognized me. Or each other. They sat in the corners and drooled."

"i wish i could have helped, but i had Talia, people were disappearing in to no where, i couldn't leave her." she said " i looked for you but couldn't find you"

"I know. I wouldn't have wanted you too. I didn't want you anywhere near that place. Even when they made me forget everything, I knew there was someone out there that was safe. I just couldn't remember who."

Joanna looked at him in shock.

"but i feel like I've let you down." she said " that i shouldn't love you, but i still do just as much as i did when we first met" she turned away from him.

"maybe if i had looked harder or for longer" she said sounding like she was blaming herself for what happened to him.

I 'port in front of her. "You did nothing wrong. You did exactly what you should have done. You and Talia are ten times more important than I'll ever be."

Joanna hear those words and her heart skipped a beat as both her hands moved to cup his face.

"I love you Kurt Wagner" she said as a second tear found its way onto her cheek as she kissed him again.

"Oh, my... she's gotten so big! Ist dies wirklich das neugeborene, das ich nicht so vor langer Zeit gehalten habe?" (Is this really the newborn I held not so long ago?)

Joanna moved to him and held her out to him.

"Talia this is your father" she said and smiled as she held out her arms to him gurgling happily.

I take Talia in my arms and hold her. "Das beseitigt es. Dies ist ein Traum. Nichts stellt sich diesen Brunnen heraus." (That settles it. This is a dream. Nothing turns out this well.)
