The hallucination not that much.

~~~~~~~~~~Is it over now?~~~~~~~~~

"Come in." Says Stevie after she heard a knock on the door of her room.

"Hi good morning." Says Andrew walking in.

"Hey." Says Stevie getting up from bed and sitting up straight , taking the wall behind her as support.

"No , no, it's fine lie down." Says Andrew stopping Stevie from getting up. She listened and put her back , to rest on her bed.

"Um here i bought you these." says Andrew showing her the flowers and box of chocolates.

"Oh my god chocolates. You really read my mind didn't you. I was craving these so bad , today . I was just going to tell one of the nurse or Max to get me some today." Says Stevie.

"I guess I did read your mind." Says Andrew keeping the chocolates near her and the flowers in the vase near her bed.

Andrew then takes a seat on the corner of her bed.

He then slowly caught her hand to support her. Stevie smiled , which only made Andrew more in awe of her.

"Okay Stevie i got you your-" Said Max walking in , but before he could finish his sentence he stopped and looked at Andrew and Stevie very awkwardly.

"I am so sorry...Ummm...I will be outside if you need me or anything. Just pretend that i never even came in." Says max and almost immediately ran , literally ran outside through the door and closed it , like it was before .

"Pretend.....Classic Max.. Classic." Says Stevie rolling her eyes which did end up making Andrew laugh a little.

Andrew and Stevie then continued to talk and make random jokes that some would consider lame , but to them were actually quite funny and quirky.

Before leaving Andrew planted a kiss on Stevie's forehead. But then instantly regretted  and was practically  bashing himself up in his brain or mind. What did he just do. He gave Stevie a peck on her forehead. He is a priest isn't he? Is he? He hasn't taken his vows yet , so is that unofficially? Stevie didn't make a big deal of it and just smiled at him before he left.

After he went back to church, he saw that mass was going on. So since Andrew did not have any work to do or any thing to do he got dress formally and attended mass that afternoon.

The saddening part of it was that even though he was in church and now there was no excuse, everyone knew he was a priest in this very church, that still did not stop people , or women to look at him. Of course looking is completely fine, but they were starring. He tried mot to look at anyone , which was way easier said than done. He was reading all and later on was also conducting the mass himself, and when you are presenting or reading something, people making eye contact and starring at you in an inappropriate way can be both distracting and disturbing. Andrew felt that. He tried to read but it was all so awkward in his eyes. After an hour when Mass was over, Andrew went to out to eat some lunch.

He went to the same pizza joint that he had gone to when he first came here, to Italy. The man just loved their pizza, and it was said to be one of the oldest in Rome , not to mention it was one of the best to exist.  He ordered , payed and then went to his table to relax for a bit.

Right then that very second he saw someone , a woman. She was Judy. Judy as in his ex. He, like i mentioned earlier was in a very toxic relationship with him, that was when he realized that he wanted to commit to god and surrender. She was at the counter ordering and since his table was right near the counter he could easily spot her there.  She quickly paid and when on her way to get a table , she also saw Andrew.
