His Ultimate Love[ Published]

Chapter 3.

"What the fuck was that?"I shrug out Nate's grip. Joe might be Olivia's father, but he has no right to tell me to stay away from my own wife.

"Calm down," Andrew says and I glare at him. How can they expect me to calm down when am being forbidden to see my own wife.

"Don't tell me to calm down"I snap. Am tired of people telling me what to do.

"We are not the enemies here Tay. We are just trying to help." Nate says softly seating on the plastic chair in the hallway of the hospital.

I sigh and seat down, "I know."I run my hand over my hair. I look outside, and it's already dark and still raining.

"Do you think she will end things between us?" I ask my brothers the question that has been in the back of my mind but refused to think about it until now.

"Why would she end things? You are not guilty. "Nate state.

"She can't blame you for something you had nothing to do with or had any control over." this time Andrew says.

"But Donald is my cousin and when she sees me she will see him. All of us."I let out my fears.

"That's ridiculous and you know it."

"Is it though?"I ask Nate. Even he doesn't have an answer to my question.

"Olivia loves you and am sure you guys will get through this too. You might not know the love you have for each other, but we do. We have seen it with our eyes. Day in and day out of arguments, lies, and betrayals but you always found each other. If that isn't love then I don't know what it is because I have never seen anything like it." Andrew says confidently and Nate nods in agreement.

"We have been through so much that I don't think love is enough to keep us together, not anymore." my heart torns at the bitter truth that the reality has hit me with. No matter how hard I try to convince myself that everything will be okay, I know deep down that things will never be okay again. Maybe it's better if I stay away from her as Joe requested. Give her a chance to heal, to think about what she wants without me clouding her judgment.

"I think It's better if I stay away from her for a little while, "I tell Andrew and Nate, and they look at me like I have lost my mind.

"Why the fuck would you do that?"Nate asks.

"I don't think I can face her after witnessing Donald did to her" I state. The video is imprinted in my mind playing over and over and over again. Olivia painful sobs as she lays still in her own pool of blood unable to move. Donald's moans, grunts, and groans as he takes pleasure from her pain.

"Tay, Olivia needs you. She needs you to be strong for both of you."Andrew says.

"Olivia needs people who won't remind her of Donald around her. Us being close to her will make her hate us." a dig an even bigger hole in my heart. I honestly don't know what to do anymore. A part of me wants to stay here with Olivia, but another part of me keeps telling to go away. That when Olivia wakes up she will not want me anymore and I will instantly become blind without her.

"Don't do it" Andrew plead as I stand up. I ignore him and walk back in the direction where Joe and Nora are at.

"Tay!"a voice yells after me causing Joe and Nora to look up.

"I need a favor from you?"I tell Joe. He stands up with Nora by his side.

"You are no condition to ask me for a favor after what your cousin did to my daughter," he glares at me.

"Joe!" Nora says softly and he sighs in defeat.

"What is it?"

"I need you to take care of her for me please?"I request and he scoffs.
