“Doc, you are spilling bullshit, do you have any evidence that I did those things? I bet you don’t,”“Of course we do, we have your signature to prove it,”“That’s it? Signatures can be a forged, so that’s a huge lie,”He attacked, no way was the doctor pulling the signature card when his mom can easily copy his signature for that.“If you think we did things against your will Williams, then think about this, you were strongly against getting surgery,”“Exactly, that’s the point strongly against it,”He cut in, he had been against it so why do they think he was going to believe that he suddenly had a change of mind?“Let me finish, the thing is, you were against getting surgery right? Now think about it? Why will you agree to it? Did we force you to do it? The answer is no because we can’t do that, and also, how did you get into the hospital against your will, sat through all the diagnoses, and got into the operating room if you didn’t consent to it?”The doctor asked. He did make sen
ECHOES OF LOVE 164
Jordan couldn’t believe all that he was hearing, everything he had in mind driving to the hospital suddenly flew away, there was only one thought going through his head as he sat in the hallway, Liam didn’t remember who he was, Liam had no memory of what they shared, he just couldn’t get it out of his head, Liam almost collapsed while yelling at him and his mom, Liam told him to fuck off.Jordan tries hard not to dwell on anything negative as he waited for the doctor to come out of Liam’s room, the other doctors with him already left and assured him and Liam’s mom that he was fine and that he just needed to rest.Liam’s mom was talking on the phone probably with Liam’s dad who was out of the country for business, he would be back by the day after tomorrow or maybe he would return tomorrow just to see his son.The doctor to Liam’s room opened and the doctor walked out, Jordan stood up and walked up to him.“How is he doc?”He asked anxiously even though the other doctors already assure
ECHOES OF LOVE 165
“Okay then, do get some rest and I will see you tomorrow,”Liam’s mom said and walked off, Jordan walked down the hallway towards the exit of the hospital, it was late and he didn’t want to drive or go home so he called a cab to come to get him and take him to a nearby hotel.He sat on the chair outside the hospital complex and brought out his phone to tell his mom the update while waiting for the taxi to come. he knew she would want to know that he is awake and she would be excited too, he dialed her number and waited for her to answer the call.“Baby? How are you doing?”She asked when she picked them up, she has been babying him for the last couple of months and he wasn’t even complaining since he knew it was her way of cheering him up.“I don’t know how I am feeling right now mom,”He said truthfully, he didn’t know how he was feeling, he couldn’t even pinpoint it, all he knew was that he was happy Liam was finally awake but the fact that he couldn’t remember who he was made him s
ECHOES OF LOVE 166
Liam heard his hospital room doctor open and closed his eyes to pretend to be sleeping, he didn’t want to talk with anyone, not even his mom, he almost died a little while ago and it was by heaven’s grace that he was still here, he didn’t want to play with his health again, the questions the doctor had asked him, okay not a doctor, a bunch of scientist and technicians, he went through various scans and they drew his blood too and asked him dozens of questions before they finally let him go when he had asked the outcome of everything, they said they will get back to him and sent him back here, he had seen his mom and the strange guy when they wheeled him back to this room, he had pretended not to see them, right now he hoped the idiot man wasn’t here again, God helps him he would be so mad if he was.“Son? You are sleeping? You slept for so long yet you are sleeping again? I am so happy you made it back to us, I missed you so much Williams, it was hell but now that you are here with us
ECHOES OF LOVE 167
Exactly one week since he woke up and Liam decided it wasn't even worth it, why in heavens name did he agree to do the damn surgery? Did he forget for a moment why he had decided never to do the surgery? He couldn't figure out how his mom had been able to convince him to do something he had been strongly against, he didn't believe the doctor saying that he lost his memories, he was too smart for that, they were trying to pull a fast one on him but they need to think again if they think he will fall for it, they made him do something he didn't want, and he was going to make sure they regret it.Talk about them trying to pimp a man to him? How would he love someone and then forget about them? They really think he was that stupid, at least the low-class man was no longer showing up in his face every hour, he hadn't seen him for the last two days and he wanted it to remain like that, the fact that he was stuck in a wheelchair was depressing enough, and then his parents start treating him
ECHOES OF LOVE 168
Jordan watched him walk away, yeah, once again he failed, and once again Liam didn't know who he was, this was worst than being slapped, imagine waiting for him to wake up for two whole months only to be slapped in the face with the sad reality that he has lost all of his memories before he came to New York, like everything, Jordan had sat dumbfounded when the doctor had explained to them after the MRI done on Liam that he has forgotten everything that happened and could only recur things that happened when he was twenty-five, he was over two years behind and there was no memories of him, nothing, and to make it worst, he treated him coldly too, almost like he was punishing him for an unknown offense, it was depressing to experience, he didn't even know if he would ever remember.He sat down on the chair there and stared at the sky, his life became colorless the minute Liam had woken up and didn't remember him, it was hellish to live in.For the past week, he had tried not to think to
ECHOES OF LOVE 169
Jordan spent the rest of the week locked up in his apartment, he didn't feel like leaving the house anyway, it would only make him depressed seeing other people be happy when he couldn't be happy too, and he didn't want to feel like hell, staying in his room all day gave him some kind of coverage, but his mom thought it was a bad idea for him to stay holed up indoors, he didn't bother explaining to her, she knew better, the only thing he did was make sure he always answer he calls whenever she calls him so that she won't be worried that he did something stupid, not like he would do anything stupid, he was sad quiet alright but that didn't mean he would do anything that would make his family was, he just needed to get over this trying times on his own, he knew it will all be fine even if he ends up not being with Liam again, he knew he would eventually overcome the pain he was feeling now but that didn't make it any easier, his smile was stolen and it would take a while to get them bac
ECHOES OF LOVE 170
“How are you feeling now?”The doctor whom he hated to see asked as he walked into his room again“When can I leave? I am doing just fine and shouldn’t be confined to a hospital bed,”He responded.“I understand your need to be free from the hospital and everything associated with it but we can’t give you that, you are in the medical field too, what do you think will happen if a patient doesn’t finish the full dose of antibiotics given to them?”He asked and Liam rolled his eyes, he wasn’t making any sense, he has been in the hospital for more than two months already, it has already been two weeks and some days since he woke up and he just didn’t get why he was made to sit and do nothing when he was perfectly fine, okay not totally fine, he still couldn’t walk properly on his own,“Those are two different stances, first of all, I am fine and I can take my drugs at home, I don’t need to be here, you go home too but I am made to stay here, I know, you are going to say I am not yet ready
