The Peacock 1919
"In Duncan, just one door after another started to open for me. And that was all thanks to Kim, who became my business partner. Kim and I first met... No I can't remember. But I was in Duncan in a coffee shop and she was a friend of the owner and we had been talking for a while then her friend, Steve the owner of the café, starts telling us about a florist shop up for sale and since we both had lots of experience and Kim, thanks to a recent inheritance, had the capital. It was a walk in the park. My mother was also living in the area, in fact, that same afternoon, I called on her to inform her that her son, Kenny, was indeed alive though living under a new identity."
"That must have been quite a shock."
"I couldn't tell her anything, because I didn't know anything, just that from what I could recall. And I still don't know how I remember this, someone in a boat rescued me when I fell in the water."
According to what we were told in the mansion", says Carl, "you were brought there and remained for some weeks in a comatose state..."
"I only remember sitting in that coffee shop with Kim."
"And the rest of us here happen to remember", insists Carl.
"Let's not go there." And it is clear that for now Kenny no longer remembers and there is no point traumatizing him further...
