Chapter 3
Back at the hospital:
"You know Triple H has been asking everybody when you're coming back to work, what gives?"
"Edge, I'm not talking to you right now okay?"
"Well look, if Lita disappeared because I put the phone down on her, maybe writing her a letter will bring her back?"
"Edge that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard,"
"Well I don't know about this stuff it's your stupid spell,"
"It's not mine you'd think I'd do something like this and have Maria disappear? You on the other hand I don't think I'd have a problem with,"
"Come on Trish, how did you hear about this in the first place?"
"Because it happened to a friend of mine okay,"
"Details,"
"I was seeing this guy for a real long time and just as things started to get serious I found out he had a wife and a little girl, I got mad and put the phone down on him and never saw him again. His wife called me asking where he was and I said I didn't know. A few days later she called me back and said that she found out about the two of us and that she wished he would go somewhere and never come back and he never did. Only problem was her little girl was with him at the time and she disappeared along with her father. The mother's been trying to find them ever since,"
"That's terrible, oh Lita!"
"Yes poor Lita, nevermind Maria. Edge we've got to get them back here but how?"
"I know how,"
"What on Earth are you doing here?"
Back at Abbeyville:
"How long have you been here?"
"Almost three years now, I've kind of made this place a home for me and Annabel,"
"Wouldn't you rather be in your real home?"
"That's never gonna happen Maria,"
"But you can't be happy here,"
"Yes I can, I have to be. I deserve it after what I did,"
"What did you do?"
"I cheated on my wife with another woman,"
"Lita?"
"Hey!"
"No but I probably would have if our paths had crossed, I used to be a real player,"
"What happened after your wife found out?"
"What do you think she hung up on me,"
"And then you came here?"
"Yeah, she said she never wanted to see me again and she never will,"
"That's so sad,"
"But it's reality okay? Sometimes people just shouldn't be together,"
"Lita listen to me, Edge loves you, he's crazy about you he didn't mean it he doesn't want you to go away,"
"Oh yeah, how do you know that?"
"He came to see Trish and told her that you went missing and we told him about the telephone rule,"
"He was worried about me?"
"Lita he's been looking for you for a week,"
"Even after what I said to him?"
"Especially after what you said to him, you think he wants to lose you to another man?"
"I just thought that I'd try a new relationship, me and Edge you know it's so 2005,"
"Lita notice how far back my eyes are rolling into the back of my head,"
"Hey Carl you're no saint either,"
"Exactly and look where we are, both of us looking to destroy something we've spend ages taking for granted, let me tell you Lita it won't take long before you end up alone like me. Take it from me sister don't throw your love away, I'm sure this guy Edge is far from perfect but look in the mirror honey, nobody is,"
"Yeah leave Cena alone okay? I know someone who's pretty keen on him,"
"Keen enough to risk a life wondering aimlessly in the unknown to prevent him from getting with a certain red-haired diva?"
"Who could she be talking about Maria?"
"I have no idea Carl, some crazy totally caught-up chick,"
"Yeah I think she lives at 122 Maria Drive on Maria Avenue,"
"Hey honey where's Torrie?"
"She's gone,"
"What?"
"She disappeared,"
