Everything seems to be back to normal. Everyone was acting like themselves, especially Sue. Even though Sue didn’t think of Dan anymore, she still loves him a lot. She wouldn’t forget the day he left her all alone in the winter cold. She swears to herself that she’ll get an answer from him no matter what.
“Hey, bro” said Dan’s sister “You want to call her?” she asked. “No….. No….” Dan said angrily. “Can I make a phone call” he asked her. She hands him her cell and called Prio “Hey, it’s Dan” he asserts. “Hey, Danny boy. Wassup?” he asked, “Prio, can you come to the following address. I got something to tell you” Dan begged. “Ok, no problem” answered Prio.
The next morning, Prio walked to the address that was given to him. When he arrived he looked shocked and surprised. “What, Downtown Hospital?” he said in a puzzled way. “Rom 120, Room 124, 125, Oh here it is room 126” he said to himself. When he opens the door, he saw Dan lying on his bed like he was disabled. “Is that you, Dan?” asked Prio. Holding his tears Dan answered “Yes” “What happened?” asked Prio. Dan didn’t answer for a long time. He then gathered up all hid courage and said “Sit down, it’s a long story” Dan talked for a long time and explained everything that happened to him.
“Christmas! Christmas!” shouted Sue with excitement. As Prio approaches Sue with a present, Sue turned around and saw that Prio brought her a present and was very happy. She snatched it from him and said “Thanks a lot” When she opened the letter she saw it was a present from Dan, not Prio.
Dear Sue,
I’m sorry for everything I’ve done. I’m sorry I didn’t show up that day, which meant a lot to you. I…. I’m moving away. If you’re waiting for me, don’t. I’m going to move very far. I’ve forgotten about you and so should you. What have happen had happened. We have no future together. Bye bye.
When Sue finished reading this unforgiving letter, she shed tears. She really wants to see him and talk to him. He begged Prio to tell her where is Dan but no matter how hard Sue tried Prio didn’t tell her anything.” Prio, if you’re a friend of Dan then tell me where he is” said Sue. Prio promised Dan not to tell her anything no matter what. Prio had begun to weaken. He told Sue that there is this guy who knows where he is. “Who who” she demanded. “Just go here” writing her Dan’s location on a piece of paper and handing it to Sue.
After school Sue went alone. She didn’t walk, she ran as fast as she could. When she got there she rushed to room 126 and knocked “May I come in” Dan recognized her voice and said in a deep voice “No” Sue ignored him and charged in. “Where can I find Dan?” she asked. Dan answered “He left this morning” Sue’s heart shattered into pieces. She decided to leave but she felt dizzy so she lies down next to Dan. Dan was really afraid that she would find out that he was the guy she’s been searching for. “So are you leaving?” he asked. She answered “Yes” as she got up from his bed she saw a name. That name looked so familiar. “Dan!, is this guy really him? If not then why his name tag is is the bed?” she thought to herself. “Danny, what happen to you?” she asked Dan was too afraid to answer that question. As she pulled Dan’s blanket Sue saw it was really him. Dan was still trying to hide his face. “What happened Dan? Tell me!” she ordered. “I was hit by a car. I cant move my legs no more.” answered Dan. There was a long pause. “Now you know why I didn’t show up that day. You can leave now. Leave!! Leave me alone. Get out” he said with rage. Sue was just stunned. She didn’t know what to say or do. She left the room and the hospital.
Sue went home having one question in mind, do I still love him. There was two inner voice in her, one saying that yes I love him, another told her to wake up he’s cripple he’s disable; you might have to take care of him for the rest of your life. She was so confused that she had a headache. She didn’t want to think no more, so she went to sleep.
The next morning, Sue rushed to the hospital early in the morning hoping to tell Dan that she’ll stay with him no matter what. When she pushes open the door it was empty. Dan had moved out last night. She felt very sad and didn’t know what to do now. She really wants to be with Dan and that was the reason why Dan moved out. He didn’t want Sue to waste her time on him. Dan had moved far away like he wrote on the letter. Where? I don’t know neither he wouldn’t tell me. All I know is that he moved to a place that no one can find him.
