Chapter 38: Another Way for Dave

Dave had thought about what to do while he waited for Patricia to come back. He wondered whether or not she would find Jake's house in the first place. She had never let him down before so he was confident that she would get there. Also, since she was a doctor, she would be able to get into his place without question and see her. Dave sighed to himself as he slowly made his way to the kitchen to get something to drink. It was a nerve racking wait for Dave.

He just wants to know if she was alright. After checking the clock for about the hundredth time, he realized that only had few minutes had passed. To Dave, it seemed longer. The wait was just excruciating. He looked inside the fridge to see if there was something he could eat. He moved things around, but he couldn't find anything that would remotely satisfy his hungry. He was not too happy to admit it but the breakfast that he had earlier was probably the best thing he had every eaten.

He would have loved to continue waking up to that type of gourmet breakfast every morning. He wouldn't have forced her to do it if she didn't want to. He was angry because he wanted to tell her a few things but backed out at the last minute. He wouldn't say he was afraid; it was something else that he couldn't figure out at the moment. He decided on just making himself a sandwich which should take away time from the waiting that he was still doing.

He was halfway done with his meal when he heard the front door open. "Dave, I'm back." He dropped his food and rushed over to Patricia, wanting to know what happened. "Now hold on, big guy. You may want to sit on the couch. This is going to be a long story." He decided to take her advice and the two made their way to the living room. Patricia took a seat in the armchair, Dave plopped on the couch. "Now where would you like me to start?"

Dave thought about what he thought he wanted to know first. "Tell me how she's doing." Patricia nodded her head. "She seems to be doing well in terms of her condition. She told me that she found something that could help her memory." Dave sighed in relief. "That's good. Maybe she can finally get her life back together with Jake." He almost felt like throwing a fit, wanting himself to help her get her like together. "I don't think that's the case Dave."

Dave's face scrunched up in confusion. "I don't know what this guy told you when he was here but he obviously lied to you. From the way he is treating her, he sure doesn't seem like the boyfriend type." Dave got worried. "I figured as much by the way he treated her when she stood up to him."

"It's probably worse than that. When I went to see her, she was in a uniform that is usually given to female maids. Dave, she works for him as his maid. She is not his girlfriend. From the look of things, she's the only one that works there. She has really terrible living condition and is barely being fed. She sounded so unhappy." Patricia didn't want to tell him, but eventually Dave would have figured out that there was more to the story. He was too smart despite what most women thought.

"That motherfucker hits her too doesn't he?" Patricia regrettably nodded her head, trying to calm Dave down as the animal inside of him began to show. "Dave calm down. There's another thing I have to tell you." Dave began to calm down, hoping that this next bit of news would be better than what she just told him. "Gwendolyn wanted me to give something to you." Reaching into her pocket, Patricia pulled out the small piece of paper that she gave her. "For some odd reason, Gwendolyn knew I was coming and wrote something here. She wanted me to give it to you. I didn't look at it. I figured that it was something that only you should read."

She walked over to Dave and placed the folded piece of paper in his hands. She sat back down as he looked over the paper, without opening it yet. He was worried about what the note would say. Would it tell him to forget about her? Would she tell him to move on? The curiosity finally got the best of him as he opened the paper. The writing was small, so that more could be written in the space. He still was able to read it, despite the size. Patricia told Dave that she was going to get something to eat in the kitchen while he read it. He nodded his head, his mind focused on the note.

Dave,

In a way, I think this is just a figment of my imagination, but something told me to write this. I hope that you get this soon. If not then I guess I should just end it here. If you somehow get this, I just want you to know that I still think of you and I still have the key that you gave me. Maybe I am hoping that I can somehow get out of here and go back to your house. Anyways I just want you to know that I want to hear from you somehow. If you can't see me, then just write to me. Still I don't know how this is going to reach you. Maybe this is just a waste of my time. Either way, I just wanted to say that I am so sorry for everything that has happened to you because of me. Please forgive me.

Gwendolyn (I will keep that name no matter what happens)

He read over it a few more times, trying to understand that she wanted to still hear from him. If there is a God, then there had to be some way that they could still talk to each other. He called Patricia back over to the living room and asked her when the next time she would visit Jake's home was. "I told Jake that I would have to come over there often and he gave me permission to head over there when he was at work. The two other goons don't usually leave the house, but they do hang out in front of the television to watch their sports.

I see her in her room so that no one suspects a thing." Dave asked her to come see him first thing tomorrow so that he could give her something to give to Gwendolyn. Patricia smiled, knowing that she was going to be playing a real life cupid. She made plans to come back at around eleven and left Dave alone with the note from the very interesting woman that stole his heart.
