As soon as that patient and her insensitive sister left today, I rushed to my office and listened to the saved message on repeat. I’ve listened to it so many times, I know his words by heart. Maeve. It’s me. Ledger. Hi. I’ve debated contacting you since leaving the hospital, but I kept talking myself out of it. Maybe I shouldn’t be calling, I know I shouldn’t, but I needed to hear your voice, to hear you’re okay. You were in my dream last night and I… I just miss you, Goldie. All right. Bye.
