CHAPTER 9: GAB

CALLIX

When I wake up, I’m already at the hospital. I think about what happened and l saved a man from being stab, I hold my side was bandaged.

“ ahh, what time is it,” I said to myself so I took my phone but it was turned off so I opened it and I was surprised because it was 9 o’clock at night. I got up even though I was struggling and remove one pointing at my the hand then slowly walking away. I need to go to Trisha maybe she’s waiting for me.

“ sir where are you going ?” a man is sitting outside the room, waiting room? What is a hospital VIP?

“ I have to go, my wife needs me” I walked down the hallway.

“ sir you cant, your wound is not yet healed” I looked at him.

“ I forgot to pay my hospital bill” he frowned.

“ sir the hospital bill has been paid but you can’t go home dressed like that, “the man said, so I look at it, and oh I’m still wearing a hospital dress.

“ where are my clothes,” I asked the man.

“ ah sir within your room, at the drawer,” he said, I went back to my room and he followed.

“ sir here it is” he’s the one who took it out from the drawer and handed it to me.

“ thank you” I took it then went to the bathroom even though it was hard, I had to hurry because my wife is waiting for me.

I went out of the bathroom and the man is still there but I ignored him and went straight outside like the guy said the hospital bill had been so paid so I could go home.

“ Sir do you want me to take you where you’re going?” he still following me.

“it’s okay you can go home and rest, it looks like you haven’t slept yet” I saw under his eyes were black maybe because he was watching over me. Wait, why I am being watched?

“it’s all right sir, it looks like your in a hurry “ I looked at him, it doesn’t look like a bad person so I nodded.

“ Okay, let’s go to DE GUZMAN hospital” he nodded and went to a black car so I just followed and he opens the door for me.

“ come inside sir” I frowned at him, he doesn’t need to open the door for me.

I entered and he followed next but it didn’t look like the car had a driver so that makes me curious.

“ DE GUZMAN hospital,” the man said and the car started.

“ can I ask who paid my bill?” I also wonder how I got into a hospital and got a VIP room.

“ sir the one you helped, he also took to the hospital and he also said that I will watch you until your wound heal” I wondered the last thing he said.

“ What is your name?” I asked.

“ gab sir” he salutes me like he is a soldier.

“ gab please say thank you to the man who paid my bill and you don’t have to watched me because I can take care of my self” I smiled at him but look at me seriously.

“ I can’t sir, I said that your wound must be healed before I can go” I frowned again at what he said.

“ you don’t have to follow his orders, I can do it,” I said but when he was going to talk the driver cut it off.

“ de Guzman hospital” gab came out and open a door for me, I just shook my head.

I hurriedly walked inside to the hospital even though my wound is hurting while gab still following me. I opened the door and I came across Trisha’s mom’s dark face and her dad sitting next to Alex.

“it’s good that you thought you were still married” I ignored Trisha’s mom ad went to my wife who is sleeping.

“ you’re a worthless guy, looked at her you’re making her worried GOSH! She’s sick DAMN it!” I looked at her.

“ I’m sorry” rather I explained I just apologized.

“ can’t you do the right thing? You cant a give a good life to my daughter and still, you can’t even act like a good husband to her. What a useless like you” my heart pierced to what Trisha’s mom said.

“ ma’am even if you don’t believe I’m doing everything to your daughter” she stood up and cross her arm.

“ really? Seriously? Is this all you got? A great break? Let me remind you that your wife is from a rich family and Trisha choose you over us. She could not talk and see us because of you! She chooses to forget whatever she was because of you! It’s ALL over because of you! And still, this is all you can give to your wife?  To suffer and be contented with only what you can give?!! Shit!” still my wife’s mom looked at me like trash.

I’m trembling with anger because it’s too much to insult me but I can’t be angry with them because I still have respect for them.

“ look at my daughter, her condition is getting worse and she will not have a hard time if you’re giving her all that she needs! And looked you came here with all your empty pockets! You didn’t even bring food! GOSH!  Don’t you have anything to give to your wife but hardship and burden to her life?! YOU ARE SO WORTHLESS!” she was screaming because of her anger but I couldn’t hold back anymore.

“ is too much for you to insult, I know I’m not like you who is rich but it’s not right for you to step up my dignity”, I said with a grimace but was still calm.

“that’s! that’s how you fight? For your worthless dignity! Do you think that your dignity will save my daughter’s life!?  No! because you only think to yourself and if you love her then divorced her!”
