CHAPTER 22

Is that photo familiar to you Sir?" asked Seth.

"Yes I am, even though this photo is blurred and almost ruined. My grandson possessed a similar photo to this. The little boy in this photo is my grandson Atif. So how the old lady has this photo?" asked Haris with curiosity in his voice.

"Well, when the old lady found Haya, she carried a small bag on her hand which the zipper is open and probably the things which are inside was dropped and only a wallet left inside. The wallet have photo slots made of plastic and fortunately some of the photos which are these photo given to me by the old woman was saved from being soaked in water. “Seth explained.

"If they got a wallet from Haya's bag why don't they even read any information about Haya?" asked Haris.

"Sir, unfortunately the wallet is intended only to hold some photos and Haya used it to keep these photos and her money. They found nothing inside her wallet aside from these photos and some money bills. No name, no address or even a telephone number." Seth answered.

"Okay, but why didn't they remind Haya with these photos? Maybe her memory comes back if they show these photos to her." Haris asked.

"They tried but it is better not to mention it again to Haya for some reasons.” Seth said.

Seth tell the reasons why the old woman don’t want to remind Haya again with these things.

Here is the reasons why the old woman stop reminding Haya about the photos she found on the wallet inside the bag that Haya is carrying when she found Haya on the seashore:

Haya got a trauma. She developed phobia.

The old woman, Elsa is afraid to show the photos, the wallet and the bag to Haya. She is afraid that Haya will suffer again the phobia she had before if she see these things that will remind her of what happened to her long ago.

So the old woman just waited the time when Haya will regain her memory and will tell them who really she is.

But many years had passed it never happened.

Phobia is an extreme or irrational fear of or aversion to something.

She had a phobia about being under water.

She is afraid to go to the sea shore.

She fear anything related to water.

She felt she is drowning whenever she touched water.

Because later she partially remember what had happen to her on the ocean.

She recall the sinking ship, what had happened to her when she jumped into the ocean before the ship totally wrecked by the big waves.

She recalled what had happen to the sinking ship but not the place where it happened.

She recalled what had happen to her when the ship is sinking but not her name and where she came from.

For she don’t know her name Elsa called her by name Aliyah.

Haya developed an amnesia according to the doctor that’s why she cannot remember who she is and where she came from.

From that day, Haya became part of their family.

Elsa helped Haya to recover from trauma.

They guessed that Haya is came from a sunken ship somewhere.
