Ric walked through the ward and past the nurse's station where Kath was
standing.
KATH: Ric, Diane called.again.
Ric carried on walking
KATH: Ric?
Ric stopped but didn't turn back
RIC: What?
KATH: Diane called again.Don't you think you should call her.see what she has to say.That's the 5th time this week she has rung. Don't you think you should return her calls? It's probably important
Ric walked back towards Kath and took the post-it note from her finger without saying anything but just rolled his eyes, before walking into his office and closing the door behind him. He sat at his desk for a while just staring and the number on the post-it note. 'What does she want?' he thought, 'I don't know if I can talk to her. I don't think I can forgive her for what she did to me'. He eventually picked up the phone and began dialling the number but he stopped and put the phone back down before he had finished dialling. He put his head in his hands. 'I don't know if I can do this' he thought. He stared at the white phone on his desk a while longer before finally managing to dial the whole number. Diane quickly answered, hoping that it was Ric.
DIANE: Ric?
RIC: What do you want? I'd appreciate it if you stopped calling
DIANE: I'm so glad you called.Ric.We need to talk
RIC: I've got nothing to say to you
DIANE: Ric please.we need to talk about what I'm going to do with the baby.
RIC: Don't you think you're having this conversation with the wrong person? After all, Adams is the father, remember?
DIANE: Ric please, you're my husband
RIC: I'm surprised you remember! You didn't think about that when you slept with him did you?
DIANE: Please Ric.
RIC: Look Diane, I'm very busy
DIANE: I just want to talk. I've got to come to Holby today to pick up the rest of my things. Please.can I meet you?
Ric didn't reply
DIANE: Ric?
Ric sighed
RIC: I'll be free about 12.
He put down the phone before waiting for Diane to answer.
KATH: Ric, Diane called.again.
Ric carried on walking
