Meet Me In The Hallway.
28.
"Hi.
"Hi." We whisper in unison, wait I'm angry again. Looking in his green orbs I am reminder of the beauty and purity he carries, but now that's distorted. I remove myself from his presence and walk away.
"Dainna, wait." He calls. I make my way over to Anthony and Kylie. "Hey lovers." I hug Kylie.
"Did you like our dance?" She smirks. "Yea didn't know you were a secret directioner."
"I can't hide it any longer. Oh hey Harry." Kylie speaks. I shut my eyes and swallow my annoyance.
"Can we talk?" He asks. "Of course you can." Kylie says. "Come on husband." She drags Anthony away. "Thanks again mate." Anthony shakes his hand. "Congratulations." Harry smiles.
"Oh your gift dad and I."
"It can wait." Anthony says. Kylie mouths 'good luck.'
"Dianna, please.." I turn to face him with my hand on my hip. "First of all you look beautiful."
Get to the point Harry. "How you been?" Asking like were long lost pals. "Really? Three months Harry, three fucking months." I raise my voice.
"I know, I know. And I wanted to be there but I just had my reasons." I stand here gaping not knowing what to think.
"And?" I question. "They were just reasons."
"Ok well if you don't want to tell me. It's none of my business."
I begin to walk away again. "Wait." He takes my arm gently. "WHAT FOR?" I rage.
"I wanna know how you are, hows your new life. You look amazing."
"I'm not engaging in a conversation with you." I fold my arms. "There are some people I want you to meet." He ushers me to the table apparently reserved for him. Along the walk to the table I take a sandwich, he is smirking at me as I devour the pickles and corn beef goodness.
"Dianna, this is Liam, Louis and Niall." They all individually give me a hug. "Nice meeting you. And thank you for doing this for my brother."
"Anything for love." Louis grins.
I take another sandwich. Harry looks at Louis smirking. "What?" I ask while munching.
"Nothing love." Harry rubs my lower back. Someone then taps my shoulder. "Hey they need us for photos." Chad tells me.
"Well it was nice meeting you boys. Harry." I go off with Chad to take some photos.
I have agreed to meet Harry for lunch.

I walk along the Southbank and see him smiling. I am not making any promises about the day though, who knows how I'll feel about at the end of this encounter. But I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.
"Yea they just left for their honeymoon on the Amalfi Coast." I refer to Anthony and Kylie. "Beautiful." That was dad and I gift to them, all expense honeymoon paid for.
"So seriously how you been?" He asks. I know with Harry I can be honest.
"umm,well umm. I uhh." No don't cry Dianna. "Hey you can tell me." He takes my hand.
"It's just. Everyone thinks once your healthy and better that your supposed to automatically feel and be happy, but I'm not quite content yet. I know it seems weird and selfish but I just can't seem to get my life in order. Will I get a job? Do I want a job? then there is a sense of guilt. Someone that I do not know did something so selfless for someone they've never met by donating to me." I huff.
He shuffles his chair closer toward me. "Look. This is your life, your experiences, your journey no one can tell nor should then how to handle things except yourself. Go your own pace and this is the time to enjoy your life. And for the person who donated they did it for their own reasons so live this life you were once deprived of."
I can't help but shed a few tears. "Come here" He hugs me tightly. Releasing I notice him wince a little. "You ok."
"I'm ok love." Ahh I missed that word.
"You really love those sandwiches don't you?" Harry grins and I nod happily. We walk along the bank and catch up on life. He has not told me his reason for being distant slowly I'll get it out of him.
I reach for my phone and have a new message. SHIT Fionn? I do the right thing and text him back. This won't be easy.
So far, this is interesting. And I like it
Well done
