It was a terrible present to give Glow, plain and simple. She could still remember the christmas past, which was remarkable, and at least one of the gifts she had been given. It seemed like a present that would have been better given to a cat or dog, where the bells on the necklace could serve some use, jingling to keep track of a loved pet's location.
Glow was not a pet- she didn't think- and was not the type of girl to wear frivilous bells around her neck like some slave for the calling, some silly girl who would also wear her name, Gloria Belle, better than glow could. She didn't even remember who gave them to her- a secret santa? Whoever they were either didn't know her very well or was playing a joke of some kind on her (a pun on her name, for instance), Glow was sure.
The thought anoyed her, that the bells weren't some heartfelt gift from someone who loved her- probably- thinking back Glow would have prefered to have a picture of someone, anyone she held dear to look at. Not that she would remember. of course, but it pained her to think that one of her only three possessions which told her anything about herself had meant so very little to her before the Event.
The Event, as Glow like to think of it, somehow had left her alone on a decidedly fresh start, it's difficult start anyway else without memories. Bits and pieces of her past had come to mind, a few of which made sense. The whole Event of loosing her memories made no sense at all.
Glow, reading a book (the old man and the sea), had decided it was time to go home. She asked for the check only to find out she had already paid, and left the shop realising she had no idea where "home" was. A few hours after the melt-down over the loss of her memory she took stock of her possessions: a V-neck light blue shirt, a pair of faded jeans, a pair flip-flops, $23.75 cash (found in the jeans), the book she had been reading "The Old Man And the Sea," her name (Gloria Belle), her identity (Glow), and a jingle bell necklace.
