1:60 – Your back!

After the commotion of his return had slowly settled down, the broadcast was done, and everyone had left, Markus and Liam looked at the empty chairs.

“Come on old friend, I’ll help you get home.”

He had told them the short version of his return to life, the hardest part had been relearning how to walk and move his body. Even with the tweaks, the differences between his old and this new model made it very hard to accomplish.

When they got home, he tried catching up with all that had happened while he was gone. Madison was so worn out she had fallen asleep on the way home, so he used his time with his kids.

“So?”
“What?”
“Who’s the girl who has my wife’s ring on her finger?”
“Oh.. ehm.. I.. eh…”
“Fiance? Wife?”
“Fiance… You aren’t angry with mom.. or us?”
“No… I think she did the right thing giving you that ring. Besides, it gives me a reason to give her a new one, wouldn’t you say?”
“Yeah.”

He could see his son relax. They had all thought he was gone, so giving that ring to Hank made perfect sense to him.

“It’s good to have you back dad.”
“It’s good to be back.”

He had a similar talk with Luna and Ben, who also told him that they were engaged, and how they had slowly planned their wedding, and perhaps to get a place of their own soon. They had even talked about the serum, both wanting to use it if he still knew how to make it.

Carl was the one to fill him in on what had happened at his job while he was gone, and how they planned to still let people adopt those children who were without homes. Several of them had been taken back by their parents, but there were several that were homeless. He also told him about North’s version of the serum, which gave them the idea that if he could combine the two, it might become a fully safe version.

“So exercise is a good way to integrate you?”
“Yeah… And with much less falling over than walking.”
“Ahh, yes I’d say that is an added bonus.”
“Any suggestions to how I make Kaya understand I am me..?”

Kaya often walked around the house with him, as if keeping an eye on this stranger they had brought home.

“Just give her time, she’ll grasp the idea sooner or later.”
“Sooner would be good..”

You know.. I think it worked.”
“Oh?”
Yeah.. there has been no riots, no violence.. I think maybe were finally on the right path.
“All thanks to you and Markus.”
No.. all thanks to you.

“Me?”
Yeah.. you are the reason I am here. You are the reason everyone found out, it’s all you Liam.

“I think you are giving me way to much credit there.”
I don’t.

As he pulled her a bit closer he noticed that look again. She had given it to him a ever since he had returned.

“What?”
I’m still not quite used to the new look… I eh…
“Miss the old look?”
A little…? And I feel so horrible for feeling that way…
“Well.. I can change may hair, and we can find new clothing would that help?”
Maybe?

Can I ask you something?
“Of course?”
Your memory… I mean..
“What did I forget?”
Yeah..
Honestly I don’t know. I remembered you, the kids, our friends.
“My parents?”
“No, should I?”

They discovered that he had forgotten her parents, what happened to them as well as Hank and Sumo. She honestly wasn’t quite sure she should tell him an off it, or if he was simply better off not knowing.

How about.. if you want to, I’ll tell you their story?
“Sounds good to me, now.. let me show you something I do remember.”

“You remembered our dance.”

“I remembered you.”
