Sam's POV

I let out a stressful sigh when Colby just hang up on me, it angered me that Caleb was back and that I wasn't home with Colby.

I sighed before going on my contact list and calling someone that I know might know the answers.

"Hey! This is Mrs. Bridget, what can I help you with?" She said as I rested my hand on my temples.

"Hey Bridget, I'm Sam Goldbach...I want to ask you something." I said and twisted my wedding ring that was on my finger.

"Oh okay..is it about Caleb?" She asked as I clenched my jaw just from hearing his name.

"Yeah..you knew about it?" I asked as I heard her humming.

"Yes, I got told not too long ago, I was just about to call you." She said as I nodded slowly.

"Okay..do you know the reason why he's Out?" I asked and clenched my fists slightly.

"Yeah...this reason is so dumb...the reason why he's out of jail is because of good behavior." She said as I groaned and hit my hand on the desk.

"The h*ll?! That's so dumb-oh my God, did they forget what he did?!" I said as my voice raised slightly.

"No they didn't...they say that he has a change of heart and learned from his lesson." She said as I rubbed my temples.

Why would they let him free knowing what he has done?

"That's so stupid, even if he has 'changed' he still f*cking deserves to stay in jail forever," I said with a groan.

"True, we can still put him back in jail, that is to go to court." She said as I nodded.

"..and we need Colby to come with us?" I asked as she hummed.

"Yes...he doesn't have to but it's recommended, he's the victim that experiences worse in this situation and he got all the answers." She said as I nodded and chewed my lip.

"It's his choice to come or not, I'll talk to him..but, I don't want him to stress so much right now. He's pregnant with twins." I said nervously and she sighed.

"I understand, we can always wait. But it's his choice when to do it or not, I don't want anything bad to happen to him or the baby because of this. I'll make sure that some police officers will keep a good eye on Caleb. I promise." She said as I nodded.

"Thank you," I said quietly.

"Of course, anytime. I'll call you if I have any news." She said as I nodded before hanging up.

I sigh slightly before going on Colby's contact and calling him.

It ranged for a few seconds before Colby popped up on the screen.

"Hey Colby, I got some news about...The situation." I said being careful of my words and he slowly nodded.

I could tell he just got done crying.

The way his eyes were puffy I could tell.

"Okay...tell me." He said as I nodded with a sigh.

"The reason why he is out of jail is because of good behavior," I said as his face turned pale and chewed his lip.

"That's bull sh*t." He muttered and I nodded.

"I know...we have to go to court to take this care of," I said as I saw him tencing up.

"But it's your choice to come or not, we ain't forcing you to, love," I said calmly and he nodded with a shaky sigh.

"I-I'll think about it." He said quietly and I nodded.

He set his phone against something before wrapping his arms around himself. I could tell that he was feeling disgusted about himself.

"It's not your fault," I said softly and he looked away from the camera.

"I-I know...but, I can still feel him." He said and looked back at the camera.

"And it feels like it's my f-fault that it happened." He said and I shook my head.

"I know you feel like that but it ain't your fault at all. Caleb is all responsible for this, he's the one to be blamed." I said as I saw tears brimming in his eyes.

Even though it happened years ago, I knew it still bothered him.

At this moment I wanted nothing but more to hold him and tell him comforting words.

I saw Colby looking around our room uncomfortable, I remember what he was doing.

He was paranoid all over again.

"I-I know...I'm gonna take a bath, I'll talk to you later." He said quietly when he started to fiddle with his fingers.

"Okay, call me anytime love," I said as he smiled softly with a nod before ending the call.

I sighed before putting my phone back into my pocket before getting out of the chair that I was sitting at.

I was staying in a small hotel room that was in New York, it was a good decent room just for one person.

I had a bed that looked like it was a two-person type of bed, on the side of my bed was a nightstand with a lamp. I also had a small table.

I laid down on my bed with a tired sigh, this felt so weird to me because I was so used to Colby being everywhere I go.

I wanted him to be in my arms so bad right now, wanting him to feel safe as possible.

I notice how he acts towards me, it's like all his worries were gone when he's near me.

It kills me that something had to happen when I'm gone, it kills me that Caleb is out of jail and he could hurt Colby again, or the kids.

Those thoughts made my blood boil.

I was going to protect my family.

Colby was going to get the justice he needed.
