Chapter Four: Angela ______
The phone rings at a quaint country cottage on Cape Cod. The lonely writer sitting at the table pounding on her typewriter ignores it. This book is too important to risk losing her chain of thought. She hopes that this book about how an accident in her Marine days caused her to become paralyzed from the waist down, confining her to a wheelchair for the rest of her life. This book is extremely painful for her to write, and tears slide down her face with every page she types. Once the book is done, she plans to put her past behind her and never think of it again. Her answering machine picks up the phone.
"Hi, you've reached Angela. Please leave a message and if I feel like talking to you, I'll call you back," her own voice says.
"Hi, um, Angela? This is Eric. Eric Mathews. Do you remember me? Anyway, I have to pass along some sad news. Last night, Mr. Feeny had a heart attack. The doctors don't think he'll make it. If you could get down here to Philadelphia soon, it would be excellent. Just head to the old Mathews house. I think my Mom is having everyone stay there.Gosh, its been a long time since I last talked to you. Well, um, bye." The phone clicks.
Angela wheels herself over to the telephone, and plays the message several times until it sinks in. She wheels to her room, and calls a taxi to take her to the airport. It doesn't hit her until she is in the taxi that they don't know about the accident. Then, she realizes that she will probably see Shwn at the funeral. Unless, of course, he drank one too many beers and forgets. A bitter feeling floods her heart as she thinks of that.
