❝Mr Arden! It's so good to finally meet you.❞

❝Good to see you too.❞

❝I will walk you through the first level. Please follow me.❞

❝Actually, I have someone in mind.❞

❝Who may that be?❞

❝Kim Whitton. I understand that she works in the help center. I'd prefer if she was the one who walked me through.❞

❝Sure, hold on a minute while I contact her. Ms Whitton, could you make your way to level one immediately? Thank you.❞

❝Good afternoon, Mr Miller.❞

❝Good afternoon, Ms Whitton. We have a VIP here who has specifically asked for you. He's over there.❞

❝VIP? But why me?❞

❝You'd have to ask him that, Ms Whitton. Please head there now.❞

❝Good afternoon.❞

❝Good afternoon.❞

❝How are you?❞

❝Oh? I... I'm fine. Please follow me.❞

❝What happened to you?❞

❝I don't understand what you're talking about.❞

❝You're gonna act like you don't know me now?❞

❝I don't... Are you Trev?❞

❝You don't remember me?❞

❝Why are you here?❞

❝Because you wouldn't answer my calls! Did you even listen to my voicemails?❞

❝...❞

❝You didn't?❞

❝...❞

❝Perfect.❞

❝...❞

❝Look, I don't want to pressure you into saying what you don't want to, but I ought to have an explanation, don't I? You just looked at me and ran away! What was I supposed to do? Forget about everything?❞

❝...❞

❝You have to say something, Kim.❞

❝I thought...❞

❝Yeah?❞

❝I just... I'm sorry.❞

❝For what? You need to say something! I've been guessing for a whole week and I just don't understand.❞

❝I thought that you were this person, but when I saw you just now and didn't recognise you, I realised that I had mistaken you for someone else. I'm sorry, okay?❞

❝I don't understand. This whole thing was just because you mistook me for someone else?❞

❝I'm sorry, okay? I have prosopagnosia!❞

❝What's that?❞

❝I- I can't recognise faces.❞
