Chapter 3
Mike and Jess shared a worried look as they approached the Giddings house; Jess shifted awkwardly before speaking.
"Um, Mike, I...What are we going to say, I mean…?" She began.
Mike sighed. "I know what you're thinking Jess; I don't know either; this will be difficult, but we have to be there, we have to help Sam."
She nodded and together they made their way up the driveway. Jess knocked on the door and after only a short pause the door opened, Penny was the one who answered.
She smiled widely. "Hi, Sam's friends right?"
"Yeah, hi..." Jess replied.
"C'mon in." She replied, stepping back.
They entered the house and Penny shut the door before turning to them.
Jess pondered for a moment before asking. "How's Sam?"
Penny bit her lip and looked down at the floor. "She's...very quiet."
"C-can we see her?" Jess asked; sharing a nervous glance with Mike.
Penny nodded and began leading them to Sam's new room on the ground floor. Knocking on the door they head Sam's reply, she sounded almost lifeless.
"Yes?"
"It's us, Sam." Mike replied.
She agreed to let them come in and they entered. Sam was sitting in her wheelchair, looking out the window but she turned her head towards them as they came in and nodded in greeting. They joined her and shared an awkward look, unsure what to say.
Some time later, the others finally arrived and knocked on the door, this time it was Andy who answered.
"Hi there." He greeted them warmly. "Come to see Sam?"
They nodded and were guided through to Sam's room, they entered and saw Sam, along with Mike and Jess.
"Oh hey guys." Sam said softly.
The others all nodded; Matt vocalizing their reply. "Hi..."
"Thanks for coming?"
Emily replied at once. "No trouble."
"So, are you okay?" Ashley asked awkwardly.
Sam nodded, smiling lightly. "Yeah, I'm fine."
Her voice however still sounded distant, worrying them. Nevertheless they settled in and soon began passing time; chatting and trying to avoid talk about the Blackwood incident. The others were awkwardly trying to avoid talking about walking or anything like that, hoping to avoid upsetting Sam. Sam on the other hand was noticing this and began to grow frustrated.
'Honestly guys this is not what I want, why are you being so…?' She thought angrily. 'Urgh, what is wrong with you all. The worst thing you can do is treat me like a baby, yet here you are, doing just that...'
She fought to control herself, trying to not let her frustrations get the better of her.
However as time passed, it became harder and harder and the others were beginning to notice.
"Sam?" Emily began, cautiously. "Is everything alright?"
Sam sighed and shook her head. "I'm the one who should be asking that. What's with all the...awkward pauses you guys keep doing."
"Whoa, whoa." Ashley replied quickly. "Sam, relax."
"I am." She snapped.
The others looked worried again, suddenly unsure; they couldn't understand it. They were trying to be sensitive, worried about hurting her. Yet still Sam seemed upset. The more time passed, the more they talked, the worse it seemed to get, she remained calm outwardly, but they could see her temper was building, she was seething.
'This is getting out of hand.' She pondered furiously. "Guys, what is going on?"
"Huh, what are you..." Chris began.
Sam growled and finally stopped holding back. "Don't play fucking dumb, okay? Do you think I can't see what you've been doing, I'm still a person guys, not some fragile doll!"
Matt quickly tried to calm her down. "Sam..."
"No, seriously guys, I'm not blind, I see what you're doing!" She yelled angrily. "I don't need you all treating me like I'm broken, I'm not, okay?!"'
"Sam-" Emily tried again.
Sam wasn't having it however she had got her point across, still angry, she wheeled away leaving them alone, looking at each other awkwardly.
End of chapter, oh dear, things aren't looking good, read and review please.
