I couldn't talk, I could hardly breathe, all I did was walk aimlessly in the hospital hallway. Cristo. How had my whole world fallen apart.
"Mr Rossi-Duepont, both the children are doing fine, you can take the home tomorrow if you please." said the nurse from earlier.
"And my wife." I asked with a shaking voice.
"I can say. You will have to wait for the doctor operationing on her.For what it's worth, may God bless you." she said ever so softly.
" Thank you. You have no idea how much your words mean to me right now."
"I've had stories of you, you know. The man I see now is different. I had you are ruthless and unforgiving. But I guess you can't ride on rumors now can you. If you don't mind my prying, why is the rest of your family not here with you?". I stayed silent. " Its a stupid question, I know."
"I told them to go. I don't want then to see me like this." I replied. Then suddenly, the operation room flew open. I rushed to the doctors. But one look from him was enough to tell me all I needed to know.
"I'm so sorry sir. We did all we could." in a flash, I was on top of him,punching the living light out of him. I could not stop.
"Sir please. His a father too" that stopped me. What have I done. I have two children now. I can't do this. I need to start acting like the father they need. The father they deserve.
