Worst Behavior

XXVI

Tavi

I waited for an available elevator to stop at the hospital floor that I was on so that I could go home.

I’ve spent the entire day here with Addison and I was tired out.

Looking down at my phone I realized that it was 11 o’clock and I had to get up early in the morning for Micheal’s funeral.

The elevator doors opened and Shayne walked out.

He smirked at me but I just ignored him and got on the elevator.

A little piece inside of me was happy to see that he wants to actually be in Addison’s life.

It’s almost hard to believe, but another part of me wishes he would see how fucked up our relationship is.

I know we’ll probably never be together, but we’re parents and we hardly talk to each other without arguing.

I made it out the hospital and to my car.

I put the key in the ignition and turned it but when I did the car didn’t start.

I tried it several times but the car still didn’t start.

I placed my head on the stirring wheel and sighed.

My mom was at work, and Rasia was busy.

The only person that I could call was Marco.

After getting Marco’s voicemail for the third time I gave up.

There’s only one person that could help me right now and that’s Shayne.

After making it back up to the NICU and washing my hands, I walked towards Addison’s private section.

I stood in the doorway of the room watching Shayne on his phone and Addison sleep.

“So is this what you do when you come and see her?” I asked, catching him off guard.

He sighed. “She’s sleep, I don’t wanna wake her”

I shook my head and walked into the room standing near Addison’s incubator.

“She’s sleep all day, I’m sure waking her up won’t hurt her” I said.

I looked down at Addison and saw her sleeping peacefully under the purple light that helped her skin grow its pigmentation.

Shayne didn’t reply back to me, instead he went back to his phone.
