He walks towards me and writes a note,
I don't open my eyes ,I don't move until he leaves
He drops it by the bed and watches for a second then he leaves,
I adjust the drip on my hand and pick the paper up
"I will be back soon"
Is soon an hour ?
A day ?
A month?
Is soon going to feel like an eternity, that I don't know,
I sit upright for the first time in like forever,
I miss sitting ,I miss date and rosa and car,
I call dante and he picks
Amber where are you?
I am safe I said,
I wince as I adjust on the bed,
He hears me groan ,I hear myself too
He says "really?
I said I am fine ,I will tell you all about it when I get to the house,
Okay he said not satisfied with the talk but he allows me have my space
He trust I am okay
And agrees
He says he and aunt rosa miss me , he tells me car called and he asked of me
He tells me about carl's roommates
He tells me he will like to see me soon.
I tell him okay
He hangs up and I heave a sigh of relief
I call carl and we talk for a while
He tells me about Hendrix , emilia and Ethan.
I don't tell him much I just listen to him.
I am happy he is making friends ,I am worried about Hendrix though, but I don't say anything.
I listen and my silence echo and he knows I miss him.
I miss his composure and strength but I mid his weirdness.
But I don't tell him
I just listen to him and then he said something
Have you got a boyfriend yet?
Yes I have you?
"Ewww-eewww,
I am not your boyfriend, he said laughing
He says" alright sis I have to go, later
He hung up before I say anything
I muster some energy to smile
I am really tired now and hungry but my legs are too week to leave the bed,
I am starting to feel abandoned, I feel alone
I want to eat something now ,I want to drink too juice and shakes,
Some meatballs ,I want to eat a whole lot of things.
But I can't order ,I will need to go open the door and pay on delivery,
I think calling Antonio will be a good choice but then I dismiss the thought
He will be too busy but why should I care I say dialling his cell.
When it starts to ring I realize it is a mistake,
But I don't hang up until he picks
I am hungry I said in a soft voice,
Okay he replies and hangs up.
I look at the cell my brow furrowed.
I can't invite anyone to his apartment ,I can't say where I am.
After a while the door opens and I see Antonio holding pizza
