NICK
I just discharged myself <b>again </b>from the hospital when I woke up. I was mad at my body and my heart for giving up on me. it was not the time for me to be sleeping in hospital beds. A lot was at stake. Sandra was still out there<b>, </b>and I knew if she could convince me to turn against my wife and send her to <b>jail</b>.
Then she would not stop until she was dead. She already tried and falled when she shot up her <b>house </b>and burned it down. She was going to try <b>again </b><b>until </b>she seeds. I didn’t know <b>what </b>she wanted anymore. I knew she <b>Was </b>obsessed with me and wanted me for herself.
What I didn’t understand is how she thought we <b>could </b>be together after everything she did. I couldn’t stand her<b>, </b>I was separated from my wife because of all her lies, and I might lose her to another man, all because of what she did. Also, because I was stupid enough to believe her.
I went to Marcus’s ward to see if Olivia was there, I still wanted to talk to her. tell her that I didn’t <b>care </b>if Samuel was mine or not. That I still wanted her, I wanted them both and I wanted us to be a family. I wanted to exin to her what my intentions were and ask her to give me time to resolve things.
Ask her not to give up on me just yet. But, when I got to Marcus’s ward, she was not there, and I went to check on her nanny’s grandmother’s <b>ward</b>, but she wasn’t there either. I gave up thinking <b>that </b>she had left the hospital.
I walked towards the elevator and that was when I saw my best friend kissing her. Rage surged <b>within </b>me. I rushed to them and pulled Ethan away then punched him on the jaw. “You bastard!” I punched him again and again.
“I knew you wanted her, but I didn’t think you would act on it since you are my fucking best friend!” I hit him again. He was trying to stop me and not hitting me back. That just made me <b>angrier</b>. “Nick stop, you are still weak! and overexerting yourself for no reason.”

That just sent me over the edge, so, the reason he was kissing my wife was because he thought I was fucking weak. “I will show you who is weak then Ethan.” I gathered all the little strength I <b>had</b>.
“That is not what I am saying, and you know that!” I punched him hard on the face sending him to the ground. I <b>was </b>mad, so mad that he of all people would do me like that. “Stop it!” Olivia screamed on the side. I paid her no mind as I went and kicked my friend while he was down.
I was seeing red; I was busy worried that my wife will be taken by Marcus and not focusing on Ethan, and he took that as an opportunity to make a fucking move! “Nick, if you don’t stop, I will forget that you are sick and fight back.” He said covering his face as I kept kicking him.
“Do whatever you want, you piece of shit! How can you betray me like <b>that</b>?” I was angry but more than that. I was hurt. Ethan was my best friend, I thought even if he had feelings for Olivia, he would not act on them out of respect for me. but I was wrong.
I should have been keeping an eye on him and not Marcus. The man was bold to try something like that. “Nick. Jones! Stop what you are doing, right now!” <b>Olivia </b>yelled on the side. I stopped and looked at her. I wanted her back so bad but now two men were after her.
She was my fucking wife! Didn’t they get that? “How could you let this happen? Am out there risking my life to get things…” I stopped myself before saying more. I looked at Ethan then back at her. I couldn’t believe <b>she </b>would go for my best friend.
Wasn’t being separated from her enough punishment for me, why did she have to let him kiss her! my heart raced. I ced my <b>hand </b>on my chest as if that was going to stop it from racing. I bent down feeling like I couldn’t breathe.
I didn’t know when Ethan got to my side. “Nick, are you alright, should I call a doctor?” he tried to touch me, but I
pped his hand away. “Don’t you touch me! you are dead to me Ethan.” He threw his hands in the air.
“Oh, stop being fucking dramatic, I kissed your ex–wife. Deal with it!” the smug bastard. I tried throwing a punch at him, but he dodged, and I didn’t know what <b>happened</b>, but I found myself falling. He was right, I was weak. Fuck!
“Look at you,e on man.” He said sounding frustrated. By this time Olivia was already calling for help. She sounded scared or like she cared. Maybe I heard what I wanted to hear. I don’t know. Soon I was on a stretcher and being wheeled into a ward.
Fuck! I cursed feeling angry that my body was so weak. The stab wound that Luke gave me was also throbbing. Fucking unbelievable. “Give him something strong to <b>knock </b>him out and next time. Don’t let him fucking leave the hospital!” Ethan yelled at the doctor.
“Mother fucker, you are not my mother. You don’t get to tell me what to do. If I want to leave, then I will.” I tried sitting up on the bed<b>, </b>but I was so weak than I fell back feeling tired just by doing that I hated what was happening.
“Yeah right, then get up since you are so strong and fine. Get up and leave.” Ethan mocked and I wanted nothing more than to punch him again. The smug bastard! “Get out, get the fuck out of my ward. I don’t ever want to see you.” I yelled.
“With pleasure.” Ethan said leaving the room. Olivia was about to leave as well when I stopped her. I wanted her by my side. “Please, stay.” She stopped then looked at me. Please, my heart. Stay with me just this once.” I begged.
It was unlike me, Nick Jones begged no one but I did. I begged my wife to stay with me. I missed being near her, I missed everything about her, and I was not above begging to get it.
