A few days later and Zosia had had her cast fitted and was free to be sent home. Mr t had discussed what she could do about the growth in her stomach but she had decided to postpone any other surgery until her leg had recovered.
"OK Dr March, you're free to be sent home if you agree to take some paracetamol for the pain. I know you don't like to take it..." A doctor on orthopaedics began.
"It's not that I don't want to take the pain relief, it's that I can't with my medication for my bipolar." Zosia said.
The doctor nodded understanding.
"Well, seeing as Mr Valentine is your husband, I'll let you go, just this once."
"Thanks." Zosia smiled.
The doctor let her go and as she left Ollie walked through the doors carrying her bags.
"They've discharged me." Zosia said smiling as she kissed Ollie softly on the cheek.
"That's great!" Ollie smiled.
"James and Cara are in the car. I asked Dom to wait with them until we got down there. He was on a break anyway. "
The couple took the lift( with Zosia having crutches) and slowly hobbled to the car.
"Mummy! Mummy! " Cara squealed as she spotted her mother coming down to the car. She tried to jump out of the car but Dom stopped her just in time. Zosia let out a giggle. She loved seeing Dom trying to tame her toddler because she knew he didn't particularly like children. Despite the accident, Zosia felt like the luckiest person on the planet.
Once Zosia reached the car, Dom allowed Cara out of the mobile to hug her mum.
"Hello sweetie! How are you?" Zosia asked trying to hug Cara without toppling over.
"Good mummy! How are you?" Cara asked. Ollie observed as Zosia cuddled their daughter.
"Good sweetie. How shot we get in the car?" Zosia replied. They both got in. Ollie thanked Dom for stating and gave him some money for a coffee.
"Bye and thanks!" Dom thanked as he said goodbye.

Ollie's POV:
I love having children. After Tara, I thought I would never say that. I have a secret and I desperately want to tell Zosia but I don't want to hurt her. If she knew that Tara was pregnant when she had the brain op, then I don't think she'll trust me. When we got married, I was supposed to tel Zosh everything all secrets. Why didn't I tell her? Should I tell her? Is it important? I feel like I've reached this far in our relationship, that I should be truthful. And with Zosia and the whole membrane thing, maybe if I empathise with her she'll feel better.
End of POV

Ollie pulled into the drive and carefully took James out of the car along with Cara. Then he went back to help Zosia out of the car.
Once everyone was unpacked Ollie said," we need to sort out the lottery thing. On Monday I'll call a meeting with Jac and Elliot." Zosia smiled sadly.
"Zosh? Are you alright?" He asked. He knew it was a stupid question as evidently she wasn't.
"Yeah..."she huffed.
"Look Zosh. I know you're not and there's something I need to tell you..." Ollie said and gulped.

Left it on bit of a cliff hanger. I'm sorry for spelling mistakes and I hope you enjoy.
