I rush to leave the hospital and get home hoping that I can make sense of what happened as I lie on the sofa. The alcohol is taking over my senses, and I try to go over everything that I experienced today. The day started out well, with me feeling determined to make things right with Ally, but now everything has gone to hell. My mind keeps replaying the scene of her and Michael, and the jealousy inside me is eating me up.
I try to remember why I'm so angry with Ally in the first place. Is it really just because she left without telling me? Or is it because I'm afraid of getting too close to her, afraid of being vulnerable and getting hurt? The more I think about it, the more I realize it's the latter.
I've built up these walls around myself, trying to protect myself from getting hurt. I know that my previous experiences with other women, especially Genevieve, have deeply hurt me. In the process of protecting myself, I've shut out the people who care about me. Ally is one of those people, and now I've pushed her away with my own insecurities and jealousy. I lay here for a while longer, feeling sorry for myself and wallowing in my own misery. Eventually, I'll pass out from the alcohol and emotional exhaustion.
When I wake up, it's dark outside, and I can hear the sound of rain hitting the windows. I sit up groggily, feeling the effects of the alcohol still lingering in my system. I look around the room and see that Alfred has cleaned up the mess I made earlier while drunk. I feel a twinge of guilt as I think about how I treated him lately. Iâve been drunk several times recently and with that Alfred has seen the not very nice side of me. He's always been there for me, through thick and thin, and I've pushed him away just like I pushed away Ally. I decide I need to make it up to him.
I get up from the sofa and stumble my way to the kitchen, where Alfred is cleaning up. He looks up at me, and I can see the concern in his eyes.
"Are you feeling better, sir?" he asks, his voice filled with worry.
"I'm sorry, Alfred," I say, my voice slurred from the alcohol. "I didn't mean to be so rude earlier. I was just upset."
"It's okay, sir," he says, his tone reassuring. "I understand."
I nod, feeling grateful for his understanding. "Thank you for cleaning up," I say. "I appreciate it."
He smiles at me. "Of course, sir. It's my job."
I nod, feeling a sense of gratitude wash over me. I know I have a lot to make up for, not just with Alfred, but with Ally as well. I have to find a way to make things right with her, to show her that I'm sorry and that I want to be with her. But for now, all I can do is rest and let the alcohol wear off.
