Annika hasn’t been the same since her accident. She’s missing memories. Losing time. Remembering things that never happened. She’s lucky to have her devoted husband Hugh to take care of her. So lucky.
Sure, he keeps threatening to replace her with one of those new companion bots. But it’s just a joke. He loves her too much to trade her in for a cold, soulless robot, who would never have a thought of its own and never question him. And he definitely wasn’t involved in her accident—how could she even think such a thing?
If she’s noticed him acting strangely, it’s because her brain is still damaged from the accident. And Hugh is there to help her get better. He’s always right there…
