Chapter 105 - Decisions for Jean (2/2)

”Do you mean to say that he would forget about the talk we had last time... Or would he forget everything?” She asked in a trembling voice. ”Is this potion safe?”

”The potion is safe. The results of my experiments show that the person may lose their memory from the past few months to the past few years, depending on the dose. I have never given this to subjects just to erase their memories of a particular event. Hypnosis can be an effective way if we want the subject to forget about only one incident. But in this case, where the secret is big enough, we cannot take risks. It's better to use this memory potion.”

”Is it possible for Jean to forget me if he takes this medicine…?” Finland asked him urgingly.

If Jean could forget her, he wouldn't be sad when Finland disappeared.

Maybe this could be the best solution, Finland thought.

”How long have you known each other?” Aldebar asked.

”Around 4.5 years.”

”Hmm... give him one full bottle. That should be enough to erase his memory for the past four years. He won't remember ever knowing you. Maybe this will be better for the both of you.”

Caspar smiled, nodding. He agreed that this was the best solution for everyone. Jean would disappear from Finland's life and would have the girl erased from his memory. Then, he and Finland could start a new life with no baggage.

”I will give this potion to Jean.” Finland finally said. She took the bottle and placed it in her pocket. ”I'll spend the next two weeks with my only best friend... then I'll say goodbye. He'll forget me. Maybe that's the best.”

Finland would certainly never forget Jean for the rest of her life. If she lived forever, then forever Jean would have a special place in her heart.

He would forever be Finland's only friend and family for a wonderful 4.5 years of her life, while she would have to accept that Jean would forget her… for his own good…

That was the best way.
