Chapter 0239
“Dad, where is mom? I asked Cal why he was picking me up instead of mom, but he said, You’ll explain everything,” he says, a mask of concern firmly on his face.
Damn this was hard. I had time to come up with a way of delivering the news, but words fail me.
“Is she having the baby? Is that why we are at the hospital?” he pushes.
I take a calming breath before opening my mouth to speak.
“Your mom was hurt really badly, Buddy. The doctors are with her right now and they’re doing everything
to make sure that she’ll be fine.”
My heart breaks at seeing the tears that fill his eyes. He shouldn’t be going through this. He shouldn’t be
here worrying about his beloved mother.
“What about the baby?” His voice is hoarse when she asks that.
I smile at him. “You have a baby sister, Noah. Just like you wanted.”
His eyes widen, and wonder fills his face, right before a smile takes over his features.
“Can I see her?”
“Not yet. Not until the doctors are done checking her out to make sure she’s fine”
The smile stays in place for a while until it starts slowly slipping. The tears that he had controlled, start. falling down his cheek. He doesn’t make a sound though. He silently cries.
“Will she die like grandpa? I don’t want her to leave me, dad.” His voices catches at the end and I pull him
into my arms.
I hug him to my chest while fighting my emotions and trying to be strong for him.

Whoever did this to Ava was going to pay dearly. He or she messed with the wrong person. For the pain
they have caused they are going to feel it tenfold.
“No, she won’t. Your mom is strong. I’m very sure that she’ll pull through” I murmur in his ear.
chest and holds me tightly. Noah is a strong boy, and the fact that he’s behaving this way shows just how
We continue waiting. I stand up, pace, and then sit down over and over again. Noah never leaves my side, even for a moment. Every minute that passed without a word, I slowly die inside. I was afraid that the delay meant that things weren’t going as was expected
the risk of losing her for good.
Before anyone can answer, the door opens, and a doctor comes out. The look on his face tells me everything I need to know. He didn’t have good news.
I turn to my mom. “Could you take Noah and Gunner to get some snacks, I’m sure they’re hungry.”
