Hating Desire (M×M)

15 years old

"Don't worry, he's out of danger, it was not that serious anyway. Usually Appendicitis operations are not risky so don't worry" the doctor informs my uncle

"Thank you so much Dr. " My uncle replies and the Dr. Nods and leaves us alone

I tug at my uncle's shirt so that he looks at me and I ask "So he's alright then?"

"Yeah he is, do you want to meet him?" He asks

"Let him rest for a while and then we'll go meet him, also let's grab some lunch or else we'll be the ones being admitted to this hospital " I reply and my uncle chuckles.

I pass by my father's room and stare at him for a few seconds from the small circular window of his door. He looks pale but better then what he was yesterday, he was in so much pain but he didn't even tell me. Thank god I found him near the bathroom, I was terrified at first to find him curled up on the floor.

It's good that I'm not very weak and have some strength so that I could get him up and bring him to the hospital and then my uncle handled everything.

My uncle starts to walk away but I stop.

"Is Mr. Morgan alright?" I hear a lady's voice from the storage room that is right next to my father's ward .

"Yes he is ma'am, there's no need to worry, it was a very small complication" the other lady replies

I lean my ear towards the door as the door has no see through window.

"Nothing is ever small about Mr. Morgan, keep that in mind " the better sounding lady says

"Y..yes ma'am , also the payment?" the other asks

"Now what payment do you want?" The lady asks

"You know very well the payment I'm talking about, you want me to say it out loud? The one where you asked me to kill Mrs. Mor-- mhmm" the other lady stops abruptly

"Shut up you piece of shit, I've paid you enough, the amount has already been paid and I've paid more just because I took pity on you, so I'm not paying anymore then I already have" the lady says

"You didn't pity me, you just wanted me to keep my mouth shut and I've done that for so many years, and I need more to keep my mouth shut in the future too" she replies

"You-- , okay I'll send you the money but that'll be the last payment" the lady says

"One should never be so sure" other replies

I stand still in shock when the words and the conversation register in my brain, death...Mrs.Morgan that is my mom...money, oh my god what is happening. Is what I heard real or am I just hallucinating? When my father said that my mother died due to complications, I never for once thought that there might be another reason, after listening to this I'm shocked to my bones, what did my mother ever do to earn something like this. I'm so blank that I don't even realise I am crying. With tears falling down my face I think about what I heard is something that should be told to my father or not, should I go to the police? Should I just open the door and confront them? But I'm not even sure that they were talking about my mom as the lady's voice was muffled at the end &  what would I ,a 15 year old teenager could possibly do to threaten them? They would just laugh at my face and if I tell this to someone without any proof they'll think I've gone mad or worse I'm depressed, I don't want that. I'm still stuck in my thoughts but sober up the moment I hear the footsteps approaching the door, I slide in my father's ward at the speed of lightning, but because of thoughts of revenge and curiosity, I take a  peek through the circular window.
