I was in shock.
Utter shock.
Callumâs story could not end this way. It was perfectly obvious that Callum and Angel Rainâs friendship must continue, for everyoneâs sake.
âWhen was the last time you saw Angel Rain?â I asked.
âNearly a month ago,â said Callum. âAll this happened just before you started interviewing me.â
âYou must see your friend,â I said. âNot just for my continued research, but for your continued happiness. And Angel Rainâs too.â
âBut thereâs no way,â said Callum. âHer dad wonât let me see her.â
âHave you tried talking to her father?â I asked.
âNo,â said Callum. âHeâll just tell me to get lost, wonât he?â
âItâs still worth a try,â I said. âHe might have calmed down by now. Tell him youâre sorry. Throw yourself at his mercy. Beg if you have to.â
âAlright,â said Callum. âItâs worth a try. Will you come to the hospital with me? And then you can apologise to Nurse Kolawole at the same time.â
I let out something like a splutter. âPardon me?â
âThatâs where weâll do the apology, right?â said Callum. âAt the hospital. Because Sir Gus goes there every day to see Angel Rain, and he canât close the door on me like he would if we called round his house. And you can help me say sorry with your big university words. Sir Gus will like that.â
I thought for a moment. âI suppose visiting the hospital would count as field research. And if I were able to observe your interactions with Angel Rain and her family, it would go down very well with Bethany Balls. She believes in observing first-hand where possibleâ
âYeah,â said Callum. âAnd you could talk to Nurse Kolawole too. And make your own apology. You know, for not marrying her and that.â
âLetâs not get our purposes crossed over,â I said. âI will help you make your apology. But if I see Ifeoma on the childrenâs ward, it is best I avoid her. Because she is not part of this research.â
And I was 90% sure I would avoid Ifeoma if I saw her. Probably at high speed.
âWill your university be okay with interviewing me outside of school, Mr Lamb?â Callum asked.
âYes,â I said. âMy tutor, Bethany Balls, is okay with everything. Even intravenous drug use, at one point in time. As long as safeguarding is observed, Bethany will have no problem.â
Callum left then, promising to discuss the hospital visit with his family. We need a safeguarding parent or guardian on the visit â of that I was quite insistent.
âIâll text you when I find out whoâs going to take me,â said Callum. âIâve got my own phone.â
I told Callum that, under absolutely no circumstances, should he text me.
âWe must follow safe-guarding protocol,â I said. âI am an unfamiliar adult. Have your parent or guardian call me.â
âBut youâre not unfamiliar,â Callum insisted. âWeâve talked for weeks, now. Youâre a mate. Well, pretty much. Iâm not loving the socks and sandals, but I can sort you out with some trainers. Just say the word.â
I must say, Callumâs gentle acceptance felt very nice.
