Chapter 50
Writer's POV
At the hospital...!
A female nurse is inside Lucas's ward, fixing the drip and doing some random check up on him.
His eyes suddenly snaps open.. he quickly sits up which makes him groan painfully as he felt pains all over his face. "You're finally awake!" The nurse chirps with a smile.
Lucas looks at her strangely.. wondering why she's on a nurse attire. He glance around and frown.
"I'm in a hospital?" He asked like it's not obvious with the nurse standing next to him.
"Yes, sir" she replies.
"Why?" He asked again.
The nurse frowns as she's confused by his question.
"Why what?"
"Why am I hospitalized?"
"Oh! You had a fight and was badly wounded"
He paused and tilts his head like he's trying to remember something... what happened in Spain comes crashing in his memory. He closes his eyes and sigh.
"Fuck!" He exclaimed.
"Sir, if you don't mind.. I wanna take off the bandages"
Lucas nods quietly and lets the nurse take off the bandages slowly... when the bandages are finally off, Lucas released a sigh. The nurse adjust his pillows and he rests his back against them.
"Why is no one beside me? Where are my friends?" He asked.
He's indirectly asking about Debby though... not seeing Debby besides him makes him a little bit sad.
"They were here but left to do something!"
She opens his eyes and studies them for a few minutes.. she quickly jots something on her clipboard.
"Mr Craig, are you feeling pain anywhere?"
He shakes his head.
"Can you blink your eyes?"
Lucas blinks his eyes.
"Do you feel any pain?"
"No!"
The nurse smiles and jots on her clipboard.
"Alright, Mr Craig... doctor said you're good to go but...."
Lucas doesn't lets her complete her statement as he sprints from the bed.
He rushed towards the front desk to sign his discharge papers... the nurse rushes behind him.
"Mr Craig, you can't leave yet...."
"Why?" He cuts her off. "You just said I'm fine!"
"Yes, but..."
"No but.. I'm leaving!" He ignores the nurse and rushes off.
The nurse quickly head for the doctor's office to information doctor.
She knocks on the doctor's door and was invited in.
"Doctor... Mr Craig left"
"What do you mean left?"

"I mean he signed the discharge papers and left the hospital in a hurry"
Doctor Antonio sighs.
"He's fine, don't worry... I'll call Miss Cruz and tell her about the situation"
She nurses and leaves the office.
*******
Anna is just a few minutes away from the hospital when she receives the doctor's call. "Hello, doc?"
"Miss Cruz, Mr Craig discharged himself.. though he's fine but I have to let you know!"
"Alright, doctor.. thanks!"
"it's alright!" The call ended.
Anna frowns and wonders why Lucas left without waiting for her to come help him get discharged.
She quickly dialed his number but it went straight to voicemail... then she remembers his phone is actually powered off and it's with her.
She takes a detour and decides to go back home.... later she'll go check on him in his apay.
******
Grant hospital.....!
Lucas enters grant hospital and heads straight for his mother's ward..
He met doctor Antonio in the ward.. he and a few male nurses are trying to hold his mother down.
"Doc! What's going on?" He asked.
Fear grip him as he sees doctor Antonio injecting his mother.
"What happened?" He asked again.

But doctor Antonio ignores him until he's done injecting her... his mother falls back on the bed and slowly closes her eyes.
"Mr Craig.. you're here!"
Doctor Antonio and Lucas shook hands... the nurses excused themselves.
"I heard you were involved in an accident, how are you now?"
"I'm fine.. forget about me, how is my Mom doing?"
Antonio sighs and hands some papers to Lucas... Lucas stares at them with a frown.
"What are these?" He asked.
"Your mom's test results..." He paused. "Mr Craig, I'd advice we transfer your mom to a psychiatrist hospital... her condition is getting worse" "Worse? How come her condition suddenly become worse?"
"Your Mom is depressed and it's causing her more harm than good... we had to sedate her recently to make her sleep for a few hours!"
Lucas frown deepens, he glanced through the results and faced his mother.
Antonio taps his shoulder.
"Sorry, we can't help her more than this!" He said. "Oh, there's a mail for you on the table.. I guess it was sent to the wrong address!" He added. Lucas simply nod and Antonio leaves the ward... Lucas drags out a chair and sits down next to his Mom.
He stares at her thoughtlessly for a few minutes before he reaches for the mail.
He opens it and saw some pictures.... his jaw clenched... his hands balled as his teeth grinding against each other.
"Bastard!" He growls glaring at the pictures. "So.. it's you! You destroyed my family... I'm gonna do same to you!" He grits out angrily.
His eyes held promise and hatred.
