Robbins twin

chapter 52

AJ's pov

We had spent the last few weeks organising our weddings. We decided we would have a joint wedding. With our dad walking us both down the aise. We had decided on a winter wedding as both of our other weddings were earlier in the year also that would mean by that time the baby would be here and could be a part of our special day. Dad and I ended up having a heart to heart the weekend of Sofia's birthday, and we both apologised for what happened in the past. Now, I was just starting my last week of work before I was due to start my maternity. I was starting to struggle with the size of my bump. 4 more weeks, and they will be here. It's a scary thought but so worth it. I was working on the private ward this week as it was less of a workload. Most of the people on this ward were VIPs or hospital staff. There was a lovely scrub nurse on the ward who normally worked alongside Zona. She took great pleasure in hearing about when we were younger and all the trouble we would get into together.

Nurse Tia. You know your sister and I had a thing once.

AJ. I did not need to know anymore of this conversation. I already have the trauma of living with her and Torres, and hearing them is enough that anybody, especially me, can handle.

Nurse Tia. I wouldn't mind walking in on that. They are both hot.

AJ. Eww, now I'm having visions.

Nurse Tia. Not long left, huh?

AJ. About 4 weeks depending on when they choose to arrive. Its brother was late, and I ended up having a c-section with him.

Nurse Tia. You have another child?

AJ. Had another child. He died 5 years ago .

Nurse Tia. Shit, sorry to hear that.

AJ. It's fine. It was hard when he passed, but I'm getting there.

Nurse Tia. I bet you were an amazing mom to him, and no doubt you will be to this little one.

AJ. Thanks. So that's you all sorted. Do you need anything else?

Nurse Tia. Nope. Im perfectly fine for now. Thank you, AJ.

I didn't want to go into everything from the past, so i avoided her questioning. Either way, I had work to do and could hang about in her room all day. I noticed a few police officers standing outside of the next room on my list. It was a prisoner brought in last night after he was attacked, apparently. I showed them my ID so they would allow me into the room. I collected his file to see what he would need from me. According to the form, I only had to check and empty his catheter bag along with making sure he had fluids to had as he wasn't on an IV. I carefully bent down to check his catheter bag, but it was empty. I looked up to tell the man he needed to be drinking more, but when i saw his eyes and he saw me, my whole body went cold.

Peter. Robbins. It's you. You've come back to me.

AJ. No... no... no

I backed up to get to the door as quickly as I could.

Peter. Please, stay with me, Robbins.

I shook my head and walked out of the room quickly. I could feel my chest getting tighter and tighter. I couldn't breathe. I was having a panic attack. I headed to the stairwell and slid down the wall, so i was sitting with my knees up as much as the baby bump would let me. I tried hard to regulate my breathing, but it wasn't working. Thankfully, Callie came up the stairs and found me.

Callie. AJ. Shit are you okay.

AJ. That... that...

Callie breathe AJ. Take a deep breath with me.
