Thank you for those who are still reading this, it means a lot to me. Major thanks to Osas1234 for reviewing every chapter of all of my works, you rock.
Madge didn't respond after what Gale had just said to her. She understands why he had sex with Enobaria but she couldn't comprehend why he did it with Clove.
"Madge please say something."
"You're kidding right. You really didn't have sex with Clove, right?"
"Madge, I did." Gale said in a whisper.
"Why? Did the two of you also dated?"
"No, we never dated."
"Then why?"
"It was after I found out that Enobaria was with Brutus. I was upset and I didn't know what I should do. I am so angry when I found out that Enobaria was cheating on me."
"You had sex with her because you're upset?"
"Madge I'm sorry, but it's all in the past. I will never do something like that again."
"Gale can you please leave, I need to be alone. I just found out that I have Alzheimer's and now you are bombarding with your past, I think I need to process all this."
"Fine Madge. I'll see you tomorrow.
Gale left Madge alone and she started crying. It's hard for her to accept everything, one day Gale and she are happy and the next day everything seems to fall apart. She knows that Gale's relationship with Clove is in the past but she can't help but feel jealous. She feels trapped in her room so she decided to leave the house. Madge just kept walking with no destination in mind, her mind is filled with her problems, and suddenly she stopped. She started to look around her and get confused; she couldn't remember why she is outside.
"Miss, are you okay?" A boy who is passing saw her.
"Yes."
"Are you sure? You look really pale."
"Am I?
"Yes, come on, where is your house I'll help you get home."
"I don't know."
"What?"
"Excuse me, what is going on? Madge, is that you?"
"Cato! You're here."
"You know her?" The boy asked.
"Yes, don't worry I'll take her, thank you for your concern."
"You're welcome."
"Cato, I'm so glad you're here."
"Really?"
"Of course."
"Madge I want to apologize for what I did to you. Can we go back to the way we were two years ago?"
"Cato I don't understand you, why are you apologizing to me? And two years ago? What are you talking about? We haven't even met two years ago."
"Madge what are you talking about?"
"Madge is that you? Cato, what the hell are you doing with Madge?"
"Katniss, why are you yelling at my boyfriend?"
"Boyfriend? Madge what are you talking about?"
"Come on, I told you last week that Cato and I started dating."
"What? Cato what did you do to her?"
"I didn't do anything. I just helped her and then she started talking like this, it's as if she only remembers what happened last year."
"Guys what are you talking about?"
"Madge come on, let's get you home."
"Okay, bye Cato."
Katniss literally drag Madge away from Cato, she doesn't understand why Madge is acting this way. She also saw that Cato seemed confuse by Madge's behavior. She then remembers Madge's tendency to forget things, but this is too much. And then while they are walking Madge suddenly stopped.
"Katniss? Why are you here? Since when did you got here?"
"Huh? Madge I've been here for quite some time, don't you remember? I dragged you away from Cato."
"Cato? Why will I be with Cato?"
"Madge are you okay?"
"Yeah, well not so much."
"What happened?"
"Well, Gale and I were having a conversation and he told me about his previous relationships and then I told him to go."
"Madge I think it's better if you go home, you must be stressed. You should rest."
"Okay."
Katniss called Peeta, Gale, Delly and Thoms and asked them to meet at her house. She is really worried about Madge and she knows Gale knows about something. As her friend she wants to help Madge in any way possible.
"Hey Katniss, why did call us?" Thom asked.
"Wait, are we all here?" Katniss said instead of answering Thom's question.
"Well Madge is the only one missing." Delly answered.
"She's not going to be here because I didn't call her."
"Why is that?" Peeta asked.
"Are we going to plan a surprise for Madge?" Thom asked.
"No, this is something that concerns Madge but it is a serious matter and I know for a fact that Gale knows something."
All four of them looked at Gale, Peeta, Thom and Delly are confused, they don't know what is happening. Katniss is always serious but she was never this serious before.
Gale sighed. "What do you want to know?"
"Do you know what happened after you leave Madge's house?"
"Hey how did you know about our conversation? Did Madge tell you?"
"We both know that Madge will never do that. To answer your question, I saw Madge near the park and do you know who she with?"
"Who?"
"Cato!"
"What is that bastard doing talking with Madge?" Peeta asked. He, Delly and Thom are confused on what is happening but once Katniss mentioned Cato's name he became furious.
"Calm down Peeta, just listen okay. So I saw her with Cato and when I started yelling at Cato, do you know what Madge said? She asked me why I was yelling to her boyfriend. And then she told me that she and Cato just started dating last week. Cato told me that Madge is talking as if her mind is when we were in middle school. For the past few weeks Delly and I noticed that Madge is getting forgetful but what happened a while ago was something serious, so tell us Gale what is going on?"
"I don't think I should be the one telling you guys this."
"We are her friends we deserve to know what is happening on Madge."
"She has Alzheimer's Disease. I talked to her doctor and he told me that she has a rare case of Alzheimer's."
"That is not true." Katniss said in a whisper, she couldn't believe that her friend, sweet, kind Madge is dealing with such a disease.
Okay what do you guys think? Next chapter will be another confrontation between Clove and Madge. Also, someone will celebrate his/her birthday and Madge's parents will find out about her condition. Please Review!
