Chapter 33: Carey X Maxi II
Unknown
Left him on the path.
Alone.
__
It's Been taugh to breath one more air. Two days earlier maybe he picked up phone and asked me if I was okay. Two days later, he's been Unknown.
Ignoring each messages even when heart wants to read. Not matter what, he's not gonna look over his phone's screen, neither he wants to unseen it.
BBL 13,
'Glenn Maxwell stands down from Melbourne Star's Captaincy.' The caption from fox sports news gave a 440 volt shock. Why even he decided that?
Days later, 'Glenn Maxwell hospitalised, recovering after night out in Adelaide' again a sort of news popped up. "Jesus!"
Don't know why he done that? Relationship stayed more than a 10 years Remember, we're younger, giving all the shits together cause ewe hold each-other. Remember, how we started battling and chasing us. So easy to break one's heart even it's more easier to fall in love.
Again.

Though Maxwell didn't perform well at BBL 13, it was okay standing down from Captaincy. He gave Melbourne Stars a lot. Maybe it wasn't their season. They positioned lower at the end of the season. But as a Captain, he performed well on the field. Whatsoever, As new captains each of them showed their ability all alone. Nathan Ellis, was one of them. He won the last match against Melbourne Stars and give Hurricanes the position 5. Which was a great start for him as junior Captain. Not everyone's cup of tea. Nathan McSweeney, Matt Short, Will Sutherland, Aaron Hardie were also involved in that journey TOO. As Maxwell was experienced and lost against a new Captain would nothing but somehow a proud of whoever done it. Praised Ellis.
Again.
"I just wanna know why you did break up? It's make no sense how things turn in that way. I just wondering can't you forgive me again. And yeah I'm sorry. I know it's not changing a thing but I suppose if I were you I'd have done a lot more harm to myself. At least, talk to me and can't we clear this out? Long story, I'd describe in short. But trust me, Carey I still not over you." Fingers were trembling while hitting the send button. But did at last. Who cares who when they weren't them? Who even trust whom who broke it? No other issues where created. But seeing your loved one loving another hurts the most. That's how quickly one changed. That's how easily trust broke.
"At least one minute." Again Maxi failed convincing Carey. At the end of every breath, one issue was born. Maybe not by fault. Not by each powers. Maxi's fall down started week earlier. Both professional and personal. Sorrow wasn't lasted but few feets later, it was broken like a heart. Done more than enough things with Ellis. Tried to kiss even. It was Ellis's luck to get rid off but how longer could he look at himself, his own self. He doesn't have any feelings for Maxi, normal he has Meredith all the way since college. Relationship stayed as long as Carey and Maxi. But Carey couldn't be the luckiest like Ellis. Maxi liked him more than he did Carey. Maybe Ellis didn't care but Maxi didn't give up trying. Yeah it was Maxi all the way. Whatever it wasn't over limit. But he tried Kissing Ellis after calling him alone on garden. Ellis slapped him and left the place, crying. Which is normal, Meredith was injured. Nobody knows the situation what Ellis faced by a senior. When Carey heard the news he broke up with Maxi. He knows somehow how it feels. He feels each things after hearing. Maxi didn't even care he was playing Test alongside. Nor he does love anymore. On give excuses to extend the matter when one done the mistake and isn't ready to pay. Carey knows already what would Maxi do, apologies, drama, sympathy, harm, and what? That's how love come?! Nope.
Living in the same house more than four years. Carey decided to stay in hotel for busy schedule. This year till September, each international players would remain busy. If Maxi goes for cricket out he can go back to his house and stay there for few days. No hesitation for him from now. He goes for his Cricket stuffs at home earlier. Didn't know whether Maxi was there or nah. He was thinking and no sooner had he jumped off the car he saw Maxi standing infront of his door. His face got faded by seeing it. He keeps walking after ignoring him. After getting his stuffs Carey comes outside and Maxi is still there. He handed it to his driver and manages his bag over his shoulder. He didn't look at him at first. "Carey.: heard Maxi called. He didn't stop, keeps walking. "Wait. Can we talk for a minute before enough slam the car door." Nope still Carey walking. He keeps walking and walking... he didn't look back. Not one time Maxi did it with him. Several time Carey survived forgiving him. He didn't wait. Nor listens. Like Maxi did. He gets inside of his car and yes slam the door. He noticed his cheeks got wet. It's not become easier for anyone to forget your loved one. Left Maxi on the path alone when engine started rolling. Carey looks at the looking glass, Maxi is staring too. "Why you become unknown?" Only thing Carey can yell. It's not the Maxi he known. It's not his lover he loved.
Once.
