Chapter 4
I'm now lying in the hospital feeling bored. I decide to look in the door's direction and see the cop's sitting outside. I've been thinking about Roy a lot and I'm real worried.
I'll be discharged in two days but it feels like forever. I'm just glad I'm off the IV bag and can move my hand and arm freely. I'm also glad to be wearing my own pyjamas now. I look up to see Beau making his way to my door. He came in and gave me a weak smile.
"How you doing?" he asked.
I sigh, "I'm bored as hell and nobody wanna tell me more about Roy's condition. I'm starting to feel that everyone is starting to piss on my leg."
"Well get up and go see for yourself." He suggested. "I'll go with ya."
I smile at him, "thanks Beau."
I sigh heavily and carefully get out of bed. I put on my night gown and slippers and we make our way to the door. I open it and hear someone clear their voice.
"Licia, you aint allowed to leave your room unattended." The officer says and I realise its Byron.
I glare at him, "Beau's coming with me."
He shakes his head, "I'm sorry. You still can't go."
I folded my arms "well, I aint gonna stay in this room the whole day."
"It don't matter." he replies.
"I wanna see Roy." I yell.
He sighs, "He's in ICU and no one's allowed in except for staff and you aint allowed to leave your room either. Wayne's orders."
I snort, "I know I aint allowed in and anyway since when is Wayne your senior?"
"He's always been my senior and he's a detective now so it's kinda obvious. So get back into the room." he orders.
I glare at him, "I know ya'll are colleagues and best mates but please forgive me for when I say this to you. Go screw yourself. I wanna see Roy and you aint gonna stop me."
He starts approaching me and Beau clears his voice. "Byron just let her go. I'm with her and she's worried about Roy."
Byron looks at him and then turns to glare at me. He looks back Beau, "you know very well I gotta follow order and after yesterday..."
Beau interrupted him "ah come on now. She wants to see Roy and like I said I'll be with her. If anything happens I'll take the blame."
"Wayne's my senior and my best friend. She's also his woman and you know how us cops are about our fellow mates' wives and girlfriends." Byron explained.
Beau nodded with understanding, "I get that but she'll be okay with me. Anyway she's been struck in this room and needs the exercise. Look at her."
Byron's eyes narrow but he then speaks, "okay but if something happens. I aint gonna go down for this."
"It'll be all on me." Beau replies and Byron nods his head.
I smile at Byron, "thank you Byron."
I walk with Beau and smile, "thank you cuz. I appreciate it. I'm really worried 'bout Roy. The doctor and nurse are ignoring me when I ask about him."
Beau rubs my shoulder, "don't worry Licia Roy's strong. You know that he's stubborn just like you, he'll make it."
I frown, "yeah but still."
We walk around and look for ICU. We see the sign and go turn at that corner. I see through the glass window and see Roy lying there with many pipes around him. My heart starts beating faster. I walk closer to the window and touch it.
