The secret life

The secret life chapter 9 The return of the Doctor

         It was the end of another lonely ordinary everyday routine. I got home and was on my tablet. I texted my friend Alex wishing I could talk to the Doctor.  Though being her friend I didn't want to just use her. The way she talked to the Doctor was through telepathy sharing the same mind as the Doctor temporarily but that also meant he would just be talkign through her. I felt down. I talked with her a little. But felt empty inside. What was my life full of anymore? . Just boring and with out color? I finally mentioned in my text that I missed my dad and wanted to talk with him. Then I just sat there, mad, lonely and empty inside.

       With that text my friend Alex decided that she would let me talk to him. I saw the text, i was surprised, and filled with joy. It was the Doctor.  My dad texting me. After three months.  He had finally came.

      Just having him talk to me was enough to stop my empty feeling. The night before I had talked to him with telpathy or I thought i had. He had promised to text me. But when I said in greeting "you kept your promise" he was confused" I told him that I had given him a telpathic message to text me, but it turns out that he hasn't been able to do telepathy with me. Since two weeks. But for him it felt like years. When he said that it was sweet. He had missed me. A lot. Perhaps just as much as I have him. I felt guilty for doubting him and being mad at him. But he's here now.
    I thought about the past weeks and how the master had been acting strangely, entering our dreams taunting us and watching me. I realized that the night of the dream with the master in it was exactly two weeks. That mind control stuff must of been what he used to cut off our telpathic.  But what for why was he so Interested in me? Me and the Doctor were both working together to figure out The Master Mystery.

      I told him about my Friend Emily I had met. Then was suprised to know that The Doctor had actually known her. Turns out she was his companion at one point. Which was really cool to know. Though he said she wasn't a timelord.  So I dismissed that thought I previously thought about her being one.

    It was close to Halloween I had planned to dress up like my dad for Halloween.  I had the costume and everything. I decided to have a little laugh and proceeded telling him of me not being able to find a bowtie wishing I could borrow one of his. We both laughed. It was so nice talking to him. I had so missed it. And just being able to talk to him again was enough to lift my hearts.

       I told him of the letter I wrote a bit afraid to show him it. But I agreed to do it. As it was me pouring out my feelings into it. It was  written a good balance between how I missed him and how I know he had a reason for not being able to see him. As I posted it and he read it i had hoped he wasn't mad at me. He had said after reading it it had pulled a few strings in his heart. But I saw that he understood how I was feeling at the time.

    He said one thing that confirmed my proof that he didn't forget me. "I guess if it's my last chance to say it crystal-I" The same thing he said to rose. Hearing that my eyes filled with tears.   He does love me. I don't know why I doubted him, but as down as I was I guess it's natural. 

    He had left but before I knew it he was back which made me even more happy I had more time to talk with my true father. We caught up on things and had more laughs. Then I decided it was time to get some answers.  I asked him the questions that I had longed to have answers to from a long time. My biggest one. Why do I never get to see him. On earth. Texting him but never getting to see him. He gave me a virtual hug but I wished I could actually hug him.

     Then he finally revealed it. He said if I saw him I would die. Turns out he had been cursed by Medusa.  The curse lasting until his next regeneration.  It was the first hope that I would someday see him again. Because now. It wasn't forever. This was one answer but I didn't know if it was the truth after all the Doctor lies.

     We kept talking though the night. Near the end of the conversation I found out that the Doctor had left without saying goodbye.  Someone else was replying and I had no way of knowing who. Since It was getting late I decided to get to bed. Not knowing who was texting me. And not knowing that I would soon find out.
