Until Adrian contacts me and tells me that, he no longer loves me , then I will refuse to give up hope that he will be back and that he does love me. I have not heard a thing from Katharine or Michael; I take that as a bad sign. I get Katharine’s problem, but as for Michael, I do not understand why he has not come to see me. After all, he did save my l ife, I rack my brain for a reason but I cannot find one. I don’t think that Michael was mad at me the last time that we spoke. H e was going back to London, but I knew that was bound to happen once Adrian came to New York. I fear that I have done something to upset him. I want to call him, but I do not want to anger Katharine. I did tell her that I would not stay away from Michael. However, if he is not showing interest in me does that mean he does not care anymore? So many things are swirling around in my head and I feel that it is about to explode. I close my eyes as I listen to the words of Adele,
I heard that you are settled down that you found a girl and you’re married now. I heard that your dreams came true, guess she gave you things I did not give to you. O ld friend why you so shy ain’t like you to hold back or hide from the light, I hate to turn up out the blue uninvited but I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it I hoped you’d see my face and that you’d be reminded that for me it isn’t over,
Never mind, I’ll find someone like you. I wish nothing but the best for you too. Don’t forget me I begged I remember you said sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead. Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes its hurts instead.
The tears are running down my face as I bask in her words. They are speaking to me on ano ther level and I can identify with her words . My eyes are stinging and the pain in my abdomen is sharp. I pull out one earphone as the music continues to play. I lift my phone from the table that is in front of me. I scroll through my images until I find the one of Adrian; I gaze at his picture as Adele belts out,
You know how the time flies; only yesterday was the time of our lives. We were born and raised in a summer haze bound by the surprise of our glory days . I hate to turn up out the blue uninvited but I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it I hoped you’d see my face and that you’d be reminded that for me it isn’t over,
Never mind, I’ll find someone like you. I wish nothing but the best for you too. Don’t forget me I begged I remember you said sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead. Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes its hurts instead.
With salty tears pouring from my eyes, I call Adrian, after about ten rings there is no answer. I hang up the phone and I ring him again. I do that repeatedly until I finally conclude that he is not going to answer. I look through my contacts as I wipe away some of my tears. I come across Michael’s name, and I wonder if he would answer me? I deliberate with myself for what seems like hours; until with one fluid motion, I hit send and wait as the phone rings. My heart is racing, I want to hear his voice, I want to thank him for saving me and I want him to know that I still care about him.
“Hello,” he says in his masculine British accent. His voice has me frozen and I cannot respond.
“Hello!” He almost shouts and I jump little. I open my mouth to speak but again no words come out. What is wrong with me? Why can I not just talk to him? What is stopping me? I take a very deep breath and then I force out words.
“Hello Michael.” I finally manage to say.
“Is there something that I can help you with Alanna?” He says rather sharply.
“I just wanted to talk to you, how are you?” I say feeling guilty again for him getting hurt.
“I am fine, what do you want to talk about?” He says again in a sharp tone. This reminds me of when we first met and things were very awkward between us, I was so sure that he hated me.
