Finding Maddy

Mistaken

Maddy

Mikey comes into my room and sits down on my bed. “why are you torturing the kid? He is completely head of heels for you Maddy. And you love him. I know you can’t remember right now, but you guys are connected. I am always on your side, but I think that you will regret this.”

“It's not real. None of it was.” He looks at me with confusion. I sigh and sit next to him. Explaining what I know. Everything that woman told me. I want as his face goes from doubtful to angry. “ARE YOU SERIOUS! Maddy. You are taking her word as gospel and denying what you have seen yourself over these past few weeks. All that time in the hospital , he never left your side. His parents thought at one point that he would collapse and join you in the ward. Do you think I would be ok with someone I didn’t believe love you check you out of the hospital and bring you home? Oh Maddy. What have you done?”

I want him shake his head as he stands and starts to walk out of my room. I reach out and grab his arm. “have I made a mistake?” a sinking feeling fills my stomach. He just looks at me and then walks out the door. I bury my head in my hands. What have I done? This whole time, I tried to tell myself I was doing the right thing. But somewhere inside, it just felt wrong. I stroke the mark on my neck. I don't know where it came from, all I know is that when I see it in the mirror or touch it, I feel warm inside. I feel this connection that I don’t understand. Was it him? Was the feeling the mark gave me about Dom?

I fall back onto my bed and cry. Giant sobs shake my body. I cry myself to sleep. The pain diminishing as darkness overtakes me
