Jax brings Brenda back from Europe.

She has lost her memory. She doesn’t

remember anything before this past

year. She had been living with a rich

socialite in Paris, but he has passed

away. It took a lot of convincing on

Jax’s part to get Brenda to come back.

He told her that if she came back,

maybe she would remember more. All

Brenda really wanted was to remember

who she was before her accident.

As they arrive in Port Charles

a flood of feelings come back to Brenda.

She actually feels at home and at peace

here. Jax takes Brenda back to his

penthouse. She decides that she wants

to take a walk around, he told her to

be careful. Brenda walks passed Kelly’s

dinner because it had already closed

for the night. She then came to Luke’s

Club. Brenda goes in and sits down at

the bar. Luke comes out from his office

and is totally shocked to see her there.

Luke - Brenda, what happened to you?

Everyone thought that you had died.

Brenda - Do I know you?

Luke - Well, I kinda hoped you remember

your old pal Luke.

Brenda - Oh, you must know me from before

the accident. I can’t remember anything or

anyone from before then. Jax found me in Paris.

He told me that I used to live here. I only came

back with him in hope that my memory will return.

Luke - Well, I would happy to tell you anything

you needed to know.

Brenda - Thanks, well you said that we were

friends before my accident and I hope that we

could be friends now. I could use all the friends

I can get. Besides, the music here is great and it

never hurts to have an in with the bartender.

Luke - (laughs and thinks the same old Brenda)

Of course, Babydoll, anytime.

Brenda then leaves to finish her walk. Luke

immediately calls Sonny.

Sonny - Corinthos.

Luke - Hey man, Luke here. You’ll never believe

what just happened to me.

Sonny - Well, I guess you’re gonna tell me whether

I like it or not.

Luke - I just talked to an old acquaintance of

yours.

Sonny - Who?

Luke - A Miss Brenda Barrett.

Sonny - Have you gone crazy old man, you

know as well I do, she died in

the car accident.

Luke - Yeah, that’s what I thought too, but she

was sitting at the bar. How could I forget a face

as beautiful as hers?

Sonny - Listen Luke, if what you say is true,

I’ll be right over.

Chapter 2

Sonny rushes to Luke’s. They speak quickly and

Luke tells him about Brenda’s memory loss. Sonny

goes to look for her and he has a pretty good idea

where he’ll find her.

Brenda goes to the docks. She sits down

on the bench, watching the way the moonlight reflects

on the water. She can’t believe that it’s so peaceful

there. All of a sudden, she feels like she’s being

watched. Brenda turns around and sees a man staring

at her. She wonders if he knows who she is.

Sonny - Hello, do you mind if I sit?

Brenda - No, go right ahead, it’s not my bench.

Sonny - (laughs and thinks - well at least she didn’t

lose her sense of humor) Thanks. It’s a beautiful

night, isn’t it?

Brenda - Yes, it is. It’s so peaceful.

Sonny - Are you new in town? I don’t think

we’ve met before.

Brenda - I guess you could say I’m new here.

I have lived in Paris for the past few years. I wound

up there after I was in a car accident. I used to live her

before that, but I can’t remember ever being here

before. So, I feel like I’m new here.

Sonny - Well, it’s very nice meeting you.

Brenda - Thanks, but I think I better be getting back

now, Jax is probably waiting for me.

Sonny - (cringes as she mentions that she is

staying with Jax) It was my pleasure, miss...?

Brenda - Barrett, Brenda Barrett.

Sonny - Brenda, well maybe we can talk again

sometime, so I’ll see you

around. (he walks away)

Chapter 3

As Brenda walks back, all she can think of is

the man she met at the docks. She hadn’t even asked

him his name. He had the greatest smile. She couldn’t

understand why she felt some kind of connection with

him. She was visited by the man from the docks in her

dreams that night. She woke up smiling, just knowing

that she would see him again.

Jax had an early meeting so she was by herself.

She was hungry so she thought she would go back

to the diner she had passed the night before; hopefully

it would be opened now. She walked in and

everyone turned and was staring at her. She felt

really uncomfortable. Then she saw the man from

the docks. He came over to her and led her back

to his table.

Sonny - Hi, I knew I would see you again.

Brenda - Thanks for the save, I thought maybe I had

forgotten to get dressed this morning, the way they

were staring.

Sonny - I’d do anything for you, always.

Brenda - (a little unsure of him) Ok, thanks again,

I guess.

Liz approaches to ask for her order.

Liz - Hi, I’m Liz, you must be Brenda, I have

heard a lot about you from Lucky. It’s very nice

to meet you. Can I take your order?

Brenda - Sure I’ll just take some pancakes and

a cup of coffee, black. It’s nice meeting you also.

Liz - Ok, Sonny would you like anything?

Sonny - No, thanks I’m fine. (Liz leaves)

Brenda - Do you know who Lucky is and how

does he know me?

Sonny - Lucky is Liz’s boyfriend and his aunt

owns this dinner, and I’m guessing that Lucky

must know you from before your accident.

Brenda - I guess that must be it.

Just then Jason, Robin, Ned and Lois walk

in together and sit at a near by table. They all notice

Sonny sitting at a table with a woman. (They can’t

tell that is Brenda because her back is facing them).

Sonny sees them and prays that they don’t come

over. He doesn’t think that Brenda can handle so

much attention in one day. Plus he doesn’t want

Brenda to find out that they were lovers.

Sonny - I’ll be right back, my business partner just

walked in and I need to speak to him for a second.

Sonny goes over and speaks with Jason. He

tells Jason Brenda’s story and how he didn’t want her

to know who he really was. He tells Jason to explain

everything to Ned, Lois and Robin and to tell them that

he would call them all later to fully explain everything.

Then Sonny walks over to the table to find Brenda gone.

Chapter 4

Just as he is beginning to worry she comes over and sits back down.

Brenda - Sorry, I had to go make a phone call. I need to

see if Jax was back from his meeting, and I wanted

to let him know where I was. He wasn’t back yet.

Sonny - Well, I just want to be upfront with you, Jax

and I don’t get along very well. In fact, he can’t stand

me and I can’s stand him and believe me that’s putting

it lightly.

Brenda - Sorry to hear that, he seems nice enough to me.

Sonny - Yeah, so what are you doing this afternoon?

Do you want to do something together?

Brenda - Sorry, but I already made plans with Jax for

this afternoon. We are going to go the park and he is

going to try and help me remember my past. Maybe

we could do something another time? I would really like to.

Sonny - Yeah, that’s sounds good.

Brenda - Well, I should be going now, thanks again for the breakfast.

She walks out and Sonny sits there, hating the

fact that Jax is controlling her again. He’s not going to

let Jax hurt her again, when he knows that he is her only

true love. But how would he be able to explain that to

her. Will she feel the same about him as he still does for

her? He had so many questions that he prayed for

answers to.

The next day

Sonny has talked to Jason, Robin and Lois.

He told them about how he had got the call from

Luke, to where he sat with her on the docks. Also

that he didn’t tell her who he really was, but he

would, he just wanted to give her time. He knew her

so well. If she had known that they were lovers, she

wouldn’t have talked to him so openly. She most likely

would have avoided him. She needed a friend and

that is what he wanted to be to her.

Lois called Jax’s PH

Lois - Hello, is Brenda there?

Jax - Who is this?

Lois - It’s Lois. I wanted to see how she was. I

know that she is going to need some friends

and I want to be there for her. I miss her and I

have some old photo albums, from when we were

younger, that I would like to show her. Would it

be okay if I were to stop over later?

Jax - I don’t see why not. I told her about you and

Robin and Jason yesterday while we were at the park

and she smiled. I was hoping that maybe if you

talked to her she would remember something. She

even mentioned that she was thinking of calling you

this afternoon. She’s asleep right now, but I’ll tell

her to call you later.

Lois - Thanks Jax, I really appreciate it. I can’t

believe she’s actually back in our lives.

Jax - Yeah, neither can I. I didn’t tell her about our

relationship and I didn’t mention Sonny either. I

thought I would let you explain it to her.

Lois - Ok, I’ll be waiting for her call.

Chapter 5

Jax has just stepped out for another meeting and

Brenda decides that she is going to call Lois and

ask her to come over. Lois tells her that she will

be right over and that she will brings some old photo

albums with her.

Lois arrives at Jax’s penthouse and she sees Brenda.

Lois smiled, happy with the fact that Brenda looks so well.

Lois - I know you might not remember me, but it is

great to see you again. I know you must have so

many questions and I will be so happy to help you

with them. We were best friends and hopefully

we still will be. I’ll always be here for you.

Brenda - I would really like that. I could use all

the friends that I can get. When I was in Paris I

didn’t have very many friends. I ran my own

clothing store displaying the clothes that I designed.

I was wondering if I always had a natural ability

for style?

Lois - Yeah you were great with keeping up with

the trends. You were a model for Deception and Jax

Cosmetics.

Lois and Brenda talk for the whole afternoon.

Lois tells Brenda everything about herself from the

day they met until the day of the car accident. Lois

can tell that Brenda is a different person. She notices

that Brenda is more self-assured and independent.

Lois is happy with the change. Lois asks Brenda to

become a partner in L & B with her again. Brenda

accepts and Lois takes Brenda to the offices. When

the get there they bump into Ned.

Ned - Brenda it’s great that you are back, for

good I hope?

Brenda - All I can say for now is that I hope to

be here for a long time.

It’s nice to meet you. Lois has told me all about

you again.

Lois - Brenda and I have spent all afternoon

looking at photos from the old

days. We are best friends again. I asked her to

be my partner and she accepted.

It looks that we will be spending more time with

each other again.

Brenda - I’m so happy to have such great friends.

Lois - Well, I’m starving, how about we all go

out for dinner? Luke’s club okay?

Brenda - Great.

Sonny is sitting at the bar talking with

Luke when he notices Ned, Lois and Brenda

walk through the door. He sees Brenda and

smiles. He can’t get over how beautiful she

looks. Then Jax walks in the door and goes

to sit down with them. Sonny starts to feel that

same jealous feeling entrap him again. Jax and

Brenda are dancing and Sonny can’t help but

to go to her and step in.

Brenda - It’s nice to see you again Sonny.

Sonny - Yeah, I have been thinking about you

a lot lately.

Brenda - It’s no use fooling me anymore. I had

a long talk with Lois this afternoon and she

told me all about us.

Sonny - Sorry, I just didn’t want to push you

when you seemed so uncomfortable.

Brenda - Thanks for the consideration, but in

the future I would appreciate if you didn’t keep

the truth from me. I have every right to know.

It was my past too.

Sonny is hurt that she considers him her past.

Sonny - Yeah well I’ll keep that in mind.

They just hold each other for the rest

of the song. Sonny is content to just have her

in his arms again. Brenda is starting to feel that

there was more of a connections between them

then Lois had mentioned.
