“And who are you here to see?” the nurse asked him in the waiting room.“Mary,” he responded. “She’s in room 87.”She nodded, going through her list on the computer before shaking her head.“I’m sorry sir, but there is no Mary in room 87.”“What do you mean there is no Mary in room 87?” he asked bewildered. “I was in there last night with her.”“The only one there is an amnesiac who…”“That is Mary!” he exclaimed, getting a nurse to shush him from a room. “Hush it!” the woman hushed with a whisper. “This is a hospital.”“I’m sorry,” he apologized with a whisper turning to the receptionist. “That is Mary.”“Alright, you can go and see her then.”He nodded, going to the room with clasped hands. He breathed in and out before knocking on the door.“Hey, are you in there?” he smiled when he heard heavy sounds of someone running around in the room. “Are you trying to play hide and seek with me? You definitely know I will find you.”With a swift move he opened the door entering inside to se

“Please let me go,” begged Mary, still holding her cheek with the crowd sneering at her. She could feel the tears leaving her eyes while they rolled down her cheeks to gather at her chin.“So you would leave with what you’ve stolen?” the attendant said with hatred in her voice as she slapped the lady again, this time louder than before.Mary fell back, tearing down the clothes which hung on the wardrobes.“Oh shit!” someone gasped as a whole section of exotic clothes broke out of their glass hangers, falling to the ground in numbers.Everyone watched in shock at the mess which laid before them and in the middle of the mess, Mary sobbed with her hands on her cheeks.She stood to her feet to look around, seeing broken glasses around the floor. It had not been her fault but she knew she would be blamed for it anyway.The attendant had slapped her with so much force she had fallen into the clothes. Since her weight was much, she had broken through the glass hangers, tearing everything dow

“How do you like your new clothes?” Richardson asked immediately he exited the store. Mary jumped around in excitement at all the new things she had acquired.“Minus the hits I got, I love this shopping experience,” she said with a huge smile on her face. She looked at Richardson with a different light in her eyes. He had saved her from further embarrassment at the store. It would have been easy to abandon her and leave until the cops arrived to pick her up, but he hadn’t done that, instead he had defended her, slapping the guards who had tried manhandling her. He was more than a friend; he had acted like a god to her, saving her from the clutches of the evil store attendants.“Alright,” he sighed, tapping on the key to open the car. “Let’s pack this into the car and get out of here.”She nodded to what had been said, carrying some of the bags which were littered on the ground into the car with his help. After a few minutes of continuous packing, they finally finished, standing bac

Jennie paced around the hospital ward where she was having her break impatiently as she had a lot on her mind.It had all been because of Richardson’s new behavior. He had been keeping his distance from her lately and she couldn’t help but wonder if their last date had gone horribly wrong for him to behave in such a manner.She had seen him frequently around the hospital but not once had he come to see her. He had always shown up at the hospital for that amnesia girl, Mary, and it angered her to her bones.Was she not equally important to him? she thought to herself as she paced around the room. Was she just a waste of time to him?For days since Mary’s discharge, he had not shown up at the hospital anymore. She was starting to feel like the only reason he had ever shown up at the hospital was to visit the accident prone girl whom she was beginning to dislike for taking his attention away from her.She liked when she was the center of his attraction. She liked the walks, dinner dates

She watched him with interest as they walked out of the club. She was very certain that he was going to take her to his home. It was right, for he had taken Mary, a complete stranger, to his home, why would he not do the same to her?They entered his car and he roared it to life, swerving through the dark alleyway to join the traffic. From time to time, she would steal glances at him while admiring his face and body. He was an attractive man, there was no doubt about it. The confidence he exuded was something which she wanted around her.Within minutes, they arrived at the gate of a hotel which she had passed by a couple of times.“Why are we here?” she asked, looking around to see cars leaving the hotel grounds.He looked at her briefly before turning away. The silent treatment, she thought to herself. She had expected him to take her to his house for the night but instead he had taken her to a hotel. Jennie would have preferred accompanying him home to see where he lived but she
