#61 SILENCE
Ian only realised how used to hearing his phone ring he was when it was left in complete silence. There were no calls every hour, on the hour, from Mickey trying to get hold of him. Even if he’d been in that constant stage of doubt and confusion since Mickey didn’t turn up to pick him up from the psych hospital, that phone ringing had been a reminder that Mickey was still there. Somewhere.
It didn’t ring. There would be no call anymore that illuminated the screen with Mickey’s picture. It was over, and right now, it felt very final.
