When Memory Fails, Who Will You Become?
Imagine waking up in a hospital bed surrounded by strangers claiming to be your family. Your name is Chase Ambrose, and according to everyone around you, you're a thirteen-year-old football star. But you remember nothing - not your mother's worried face, not your little brother's cautious distance, not even the reason you're in the hospital. A fall from your roof has erased thirteen years of personal history while leaving your basic knowledge intact. This is the fascinating premise that drives "Restart," a story about identity, redemption, and the question we all occasionally wonder: if you could start over completely, who would you choose to become? Chase returns home to a bedroom filled with sports trophies and newspaper clippings celebrating athletic achievements he doesn't remember earning. His phone reveals disturbing selfies - including one where he's grinning while holding a smashed pumpkin on a baseball bat. More troubling are the reactions of those around him: his father treats him like a returning champion, his stepmother and half-sister seem oddly afraid of him, and a girl at an ice cream shop dumps frozen yogurt on his head when he smiles at her. The contrast between who everyone says he was and who he feels himself to be creates an immediate identity crisis. Without memories to anchor his sense of self, Chase must piece together his identity through others' reactions - and what he sees disturbs him deeply. This clean slate offers both opportunity and burden: the chance to redefine himself, but also the weight of a past he must either embrace or reject without fully understanding it.
