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

“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

“I didn’t want any of this, just leave me alone,”He finally said.“We will, Liam, I hope when we all let you have it that you won’t regret anything, you might think we have our shortcomings as your parents and I agree that we do but one thing we have always done is put your best thought at heart, we have always looked out for your best interest and in doing so we became people you don’t want to see thinking we always project what we want on you but that’s not the case I can tell you,”His dad said and paused, Liam didn’t want to interrupt him so he just kept quiet, let him say what he want, it doesn’t change anything for him.“We do our best but you think it is us not letting you have it your own way and I am not even disputing that fact, I once thought the same about my parents until we had you and you started thinking the same, I bet you will give birth and your children will also feel like you are not letting them decide their life but the truth is no parents want anything less fo
ECHOES OF LOVE 172
Jordan stared at the night sky wondering just when it got so dark, he had been so deep in thought that he hadn’t noticed it had gotten so dark, well, this was how his life was and has been since the day he had left the hospital after speaking to Liam’s mom, his life hadn’t gone back to normal, far from it, for the first five days he was a complete mess, crying and being a miserable man, he went through the different phase of heartbreak and he wasn’t still at the acceptance phase yet and it had been over two weeks now, he has given up on forgetting and just moving on because that was impossible.Of course, Lucas's visit helped him a little but he couldn't say it did much though because right after Lucas left he was back being a crying mess, men don't cry? That had to be the biggest joke that was said because all it takes was for the man to be heartbroken and he would reduce to nothing but a crying mess like him.There was nothing he could do that could cheer him up long-term, he took L
