As Adam focused on his studies, the atmosphere in the study room grew tense. His father. grandfather and grandmother were gather around the table having video conference withAtlas and his Mother. The skin flickered as they were connected, the dicussion they were going to happen is somethings they can't prevent.
Adam's Father began updating aout the Adam health to every one, his voice was heavy and worrieness was written on his face."The doctor has informed me that Adam had developed a way to protect himself by selectively forgetting certain memories. It's not just a temporary mechanism; if this continues then Adam health will be in problem, it could have severe consequence on his life.
And I am shocked to hear that Adam had erased his second set of memories and the Doctor told that that Atlas has known about this about Adam removing his second set of memories. Atlas why you didn't mention is to me before. What is it that you know?"
Even the Atlas Mother herself had no idea regarding this incident . and there was a moment of silent across all the room. as everyone was waiting for Atlas response.
Atlas , finally spoke, his voice was low and not in hurried as he want to explain all the things in a which they can handle."I didn't want to burden you all with this earlier, but yes, I noticed that Adam started to forget certain memories , especially after the second incident. It was like he was shutting some parts of memories that he couldn't handle.I didn't realize this until the doctor told me about this.
"Atlas, what happend in the second incident " Father asked, his voice was low.
Atlas took a deep breath, then continued,"Father, in the second incident, Adam was in seriouss trouble. He was in problem due to someone and later that person only intervened and saved him, but when i tried to talk to Adam afterward, he had no memories of what happened , or the person who saved him. The doctor said that his Brain is filtering out these memories as a defense mechanism, which could be dangerous if this continues.
Atlas, paused then began,"I came here in country B to speak with the person who saved him, hopping to learn more about what had happened. But even they said we couldn't understand untill Adam recover his memories. For now we all are in dark.
Atlas, then countinued again, "Father , did the doctor update you more about this and I think we need to tell Adam about his condition,if not then someone with malicious intent may harm our little brother"
Adam's father sighed deeply before respondinf, his voice filled with worry,"Nothing could be done more in Adam case and doctor told that we should contact a hypnotherapist who could help us in Adam case.
He paused, gathering his thoughts."You are right Atlas. We need to tell Adam about all of this. If he remains unaware, someone could manipulate these gaps in his memories, potentially causing him even more harm.But how do we approach this? We need to be careful not to overwhelm him."
As the conversation about Adam's condition was getting tense, a soft knock on the door interrupted the moment. Adam stood there, his usual curiosity in his eyes. "Can I come in?" he asked.
His father quickly got up and opened the door, trying to keep the atmosphere light. "Of course, come in, Adam. We were just talking."
sensing the need to change the atmosphere there in home, his mother voice chimmed in through the video call , with cheerful and warm."Adam, my dear, how are you feeling? How's everything going?"Her tone was perfect distraction, and Adam face lit up at the sound of her voice.
I'm doing fine,"Adam replied smiling."And Adam what do you want this year at your birthday party , tell me about it okay, asked his mother?
Mother you can give me whatever you like, I know your all gifts are top knotch.replied Adam
"Okay baby , then I will give you a surprised gift at your birthday." replied his Mother.
As the family conversation continued, the butler gently knocked on the door, addressing Adam's father. "Sir, should I set the table for dinner?"
His father glanced at the clock, realizing it was already time for the evening meal. With a nod, he replied, "Yes, please do."
The family members on the video call bade their goodbyes, promising to continue their discussion later. "We'll talk more soon," Atlas said with a reassuring smile. "Take care, Adam."
Adam waved at the screen, and with that, they ended the call. His father placed a hand on Adam's shoulder, guiding him toward the door. "Let's go downstairs and eat."
Together, they made their way to the dining room, where the table was already set, and the delicious aroma of a home-cooked meal filled the air. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, a perfect end to a long day.
Next Day
As the classes ended, Adam, Sam and Theodore's feiends continued their study session at Mike's house. The first day of their exam also happened to be Adam's birthday on 25th April. To celebrate, all his friends gave him gifts, but the that stood out the most was from the Theodore, a customized watch that Adam had been longing to buy. It's wasn't that his family couldn't afford it;his mother had promised to buy it for him if he maintained his current ranking in the upcoming exams.
When Adam opened the gift, his eyes lit up in surprised."Theo, how did you know I wanted this watch?"
Theodore, smriked, his eyes narrowing down with mischief."Why should I tell you?Will I get something in return?"
Adam determined to find out, made his best pleading face, his eyes open making it look very innocent, a look Theodore found hard to resist. Finally , Theodore gave in, I'll tell you later. But when are you going to give us a party?"
Adam grinned,"How about after the exam?"I will tell you then.
"Fine," Theodore agreed, "but now go, and enjoy your birthday."
Adam left for home, his heart light and happy, while Mike observed the interaction between Theodore and Adam, noticing something more behind Theodore's seemingly casual expressions.
