You Should Have Chosen me

Chapter 5

Hospitals. If you really thought about it, there were two outcomes from that visit. A huge place that certifies that you get to live or not, granting you pills that either tried to extend your life or cast you into a state of limbo.

My father apparently suffered a mild heart attack and was taking a while to wake up after a short procedure.His strong masculine face was now pale and lacked his usual alpha male features. I was still in my pajama's and was currently resting my head against his bed rest. 

My mother was on the other side of the bed chanting some verses from the bible. My brother was on the sofa lying down. Logan and his family were on the way cause they decided to let us go ahead to the hospital so they could bring out a change of clothes. When I had found my dad, I remember shouting so loudly and the first person to enter the room was Logan. He yelled for my brother to call 911 and he was holding me back when the ambulance finally arrived and he kept soothing me and telling me that it would be alright. 

At that point, it didn't occur to me that his perfectly sculpted body fit so gloriously against mine. As I was in my daydream, I felt my father's finger's beginning to move. I quickly pressed the button for the nurses to arrive and woke my brother up. My mother continued with her chants and before we knew it, my dad was awake. I began crying all over again so happy that he was awake. 

"Papa you're awake!" I hugged him lightly.

 "Of course I am honey. I can't leave you lot just yet. I'm still as strong as a stallion." 

 Just then, in came the Hendersons. Mrs. Henderson was carrying my duffel bag and she ordered us to change. I felt pretty naked actually cause I was in boxer shorts and a big t-shirt. Logan couldn't really keep his eyes off of me. 

I ran into the private toilet that was in my dad's room and quickly changed and washed my face, tied my hair and went back out. The doctor was already there reading his charts. "So, Mr.Fiori, you'll have to take it very slowly from now on. No taxing yourself out and of course, you have to go low on the Canolis that your wife makes. If it is possible, take a few months off from your work and let someone else run your company." "But--" "No buts sir. I am being serious." with that, the doctor left the room. 

"I can handle the company Mr.Fiori," Logan said quietly. Everyone turned and looked at him. I did too cause I knew he was probably capable of doing so. "Son, you have to remember, it is 2 companies in one. Now that I cut my load of work, it will be only you running the empire." Logan's father said. 

"Don't you think I'm capable dad--" "I know you are but there is a lot of work to be done. You won't have that social life you've been complaining that you lack off." he said again.

 " Tati could do it." my brother said out loud. The room was so quiet that we could hear the next room talking.

 "You have got to be kidding right?" Logan said. I felt like I was slapped. Did he really think all I did was pose in my underwear?

 " No, actually he's right. Tati graduated from Yale. She can do it." Logan's dad said again. 

I didn't have a reply for any of their questions cause I knew that if I opened my mouth, I would burst out in tears. I  grabbed my duffel bag and kissed my father's forehead and left the room. I could hear my brother having a go at Logan. I just prayed that my father wouldn't get another heart attack.
