forgotten but still loved...BOOK 1#WATTY'S2016)

chapter 32

hey my lovely readers. hope it enjoy this chapter. yeah yeah its a bit late but please forgive me. 

The results of the scan came back the next day. Its wasn't exactly what I was hoping for; Apparently when the body has been in the same position for such a long time, the muscle involuntary twitches as a result of stiffness. So nope, no increase in brain activity since the last time he had a scan.

I ended up sulking again for the whole week. Janet tried getting me out even sally tried but I was glued to my Anne frank novel and tub of magnum ice cream. I just needed to sort through my emotions. I felt like I was like taking two steps forward and ten back. I was lost in a story that was never going to reach the happy ending I was hoping for.

Adam.

It's been a few weeks now that I have last spoken to Maggie. I wasn't exactly her favorite person in the world. So I couldn't call her up and chat as though we were old friends.

Maybe I should just call; if she doesn't answer then maybe she is avoiding me; if she answers then well that's good isn't it? God I was starting to sound like a complete mad man, having conversations with myself.

I picked the cell phone up from the coffee table. I was due to leave Johannesburg tomorrow evening but I wanted something to look forward to. Hopefully she will agree to see me, which would really be great. To hell I thought let me call.

I dialed the number and waited for the ring. It rang a few times; to say I was nervous was an understatement. I held my breath and waited to hear if she would answer. My spirit was on fire. This was one more chance, me trying to prove to her that I was worth the forgiveness. I needed to get close to her again.

""Hello" she answered. I could tell she was a bit weary.

"Maggie? Is that you?" I softly breathed into the receiver. Hoping she wasn't going to put it down on me. I waited but she didn't, it wasn't until she said my name twice that actually responded.

"Adam?" she spoke again.

I was afraid of breathing. I held my breath until I felt like I was going to pass out.

"Adam is that you?" once again I didn't say a word. It wasn't until I could hear her splutter, her voice clearly laced with anger.

"Look I don't have time for games." She was about to end the call I think, when I finally found my voice.

"Can I see you? I just want to make sure that your fine. I have been thinking a lot about you lately. Well I always do." I half muttered breathlessly.

"Um I'm not sure that's a good idea. I'm fine really, no need to see me". She answered nervously.

I could listen to her voice all the time; it really was the voice of an angel.

"Okay Maggs. Remember if you needed anything I'm just a phone call away. Anything Maggs I mean it. Friends are there for each other." I should really try and win her over soon even I have to admit that the friends thing was getting pretty lame.

I hung up without saying to goodbye. This conversation was getting uncomfortable I didn't want to say things I was going to regret or upset her. So I just cut it. I also didn't want to come across ad creepy. I wanted her to know that I still cared but wasn't pushing her into anything. I wanted her and she had to come willingly. This was one exception I wasn't going to force on her.

I relaxed back against the sofa. I wonder if I sent her stupid fiancé flowers, if she would accept that as me being friendly and moving on with what happened between us.
