There was a reason for this. He remembered that much. He didn’t know why he had to do it, just that it had to be done. He had his girl and that was what mattered. She had her job to do too. He did his job and she did hers and the only light and joy he remembered came from her little songs.
He didn’t remember fear very well either, but he was afraid he might lose his girl. He had his job and he had his girl, and if there was a reason that that should change, she might be taken from him. He didn’t tell her that. He couldn’t tell her that, and she went on skipping and singing.
It all fit somehow. All the metal pieces inside and out, like a giant puzzle box that he was part of. If he could solve it, the pieces might fall away and he would walk out of his suit and he might remember. If he remembered, it might turn out that she wasn’t his girl, and that he wouldn’t be able to protect her anymore and that could not be allowed.
