HARD WORK

HARD_WORK_98

It's killing me, swear I never cried so much
'Cause I never knew love would hurt this fucking bad
The worst pain that I ever had
Oh woah, never knew love, oh woah
Would hurt this fucking bad...

' Rai-rai I said come pick your toys off the floor. How do you play with all these toys. Most importantly how does your mother keep this house clean. I cannot even keep this living room clean.'

He sighed onto the couch and dropped everything he had meant to take it's rightful place onto the couch. Raina walked up to him and starred at him.

' I want my mommy.'

' Riri I've explained to you time and again this past two weeks that mommy is gone away to get better. You know mommy is sick right?'

' I want mommy!'

' Raina please!'

Aalam sighed closing his eyes hoping thattho was all a dream and as soon as he opened his eyes but that was not the case. Instead his daughter started screaming and crying for her mother. Due to the noise his older sister was making little Aj began crying too and Aalam did not know what to do.

' Raina just shut up! Where the hell am I supposed to get your mother?! She's on her d-'

' Aalam what the hell?! Why are you screaming at her like that? She's still a child and cannot understand why her mom hasn't been around.'

Gabriella said walking into the living room area. He did not hear her and her husband walk in. They were soon followed by his brothers and mother. Gabriella took Raina while his mother took the baby and left him with the other men.

' Great! I just might have ruined my daughters whole childhood.'

' You didn't get that far lol bro.'

His oldest brother Ethan said as they all walked into his home office.

' I don't know what came over me. I'm under a lot of stress. I need my wife, she would know how to deal with everything. I can't even manage to get out of bed. It's a struggle every morning. '

The listened quietly, not sure what To say they bad never been in the situation he was in and the way Aalam was so emotional these days,they did not want me say the wrong thing.

' So I managed to convince our son to go back to school and continue with his exams, atleast he understands. That's the least I can say about Raina. I almost said something horrible to her earlier today. Thank heaven's Gabby and them walked in when they did.'

Aalam spoke to his unconscious wife. He had left his family and friends at home two hours ago to come see her. He had not seen her in two days due to being busy with work and taking care of his children. Roxanne had been in a coma for two weeks. The doctor had assured him she would wake up soon but it seems to take too long for him.

' Roxanne babe. I need you to wake up. It's hard for me without you by my side. I really don't know how you do it and run your business on top of it all. We never want for anything and I promise never to take for granted your importance and presence in my and my children's life ever again.'

Aalam said wiping the tears from his face. He had never cried so much in less than two weeks and never felt so powerless and hopeless. Which changed as soon as Roxanne squeezed the hand that held hers.
