Gawd, its been ages since I updated! Really sorry; school kinda got in the way a lot.
"Good news Marissa; the doctors reckon that you're well enough to go home this afternoon." Julie smiled.
Great. I get out of here at last. Except…going home means that there's a high chance I'll end up seeing Ryan…and I don't really want to do that at the moment. Not with the way things are between us; it'll be a long time before I'm ready to speak to him again.
Julie checked the time. Middle of the morning; Ryan will be in school at the moment. So it'll be okay to leave Marissa here by herself.
"So, honey, I'm gonna go home for a little while, sort the house out ready for your return. I'll only be a couple of hours, okay?"
"Yeah mom, that'll be fine."
------------------------------------
Ryan sat in class, bored out of his mind and unable to concentrate. How am I supposed to learn anything when all I can think about is her.
Twiddling his pen around in his fingers, Ryan sat and thought. Slowly, his pen lowered down to his paper, and he began to write vigorously on it.
By the time the bell went for lunch, Ryan had written several sheets of paper, and knew exactly what he was going to do.
---------------------------------
The drive to the hospital had become second nature to Ryan. He knew the way like the back of his hand. Please. Please. Let me get through to her. Give me a chance to apologise, for whatever it is I did that made her…end things.
---------------------------------
Marissa stared blankly at the ceiling, her mind pounding with the conflicting thoughts she had in it. Don't think of him. Don't go there. Block him out; forget him like he forgot about you. He's not worth it.
Marissa scrunched her eyes tightly shut. But he is worth it. He's everything to me.
A single tear trickled down Marissa's cheek.
Clearly, you mean nothing to him though. So there's no point in bothering about him; let him go. He managed to do it so easily; therefore you can too.
Marissa wiped the tears from her face. No point in crying; he means nothing to me now.
Well, I have the next bit written out to post soon.
And I promise I'm going to start posting more regularly now; settled back into the school routine so I have more time on my hands.
Review please!
