ALEXANDER'S POV "Josh Wolfe, bullet injury," I explained to a nurse."A minute, let me check the records."I nodded in response and stepped outside to allow her to do her work.Minutes later she returned with a file. "Josh Wolfe, but not bullet injury. Who are you to him?"I was tempted to ask what injury it was classified under, but decided against it, It was unprofessional for a nurse to give me such details, so I would rather not ask."His brother. Alexander Wolfe," I showed her my complimentary card."This way.""Brother indeed," I scoffed."I will take it from here, thank you," I said to the nurse smiling.She bowed slightly and left. Now left alone, I took a deep breath before pushing open the door.The sight I met ruined my day and the days that were to come. Rubby sat very close to him and was running her hand through his hair. What's worse was that she was smiling.I cracked my throat to announce my presence. They turned in unison, and Josh's face changed instantly, the wide

RUBBY'S POV My Jaw dropped and my whole body stiffened. I watched in horror as Nolan's body dropped slowly."Nolan, Nolan," I called yet no response. I turned quickly to see the sniper walking away quickly. I swear I knew that walking step, but I waved it away; I was probably imagining things."Somebody help get an ambulance," I shouted. I dialled the 911 number immediately, and soon an ambulance arrived. While I watched them wheel him into the van, I Suddenly felt cursed. Why does something lead Everybody to the hospital? First, Dad, then Josh, and now Nolan.I stared at the lady one more time; she acted as though she had not seen what happened or even heard me scream.I was tempted to go after her, but I decided to follow the van carrying Nolan's almost lifeless body.He was about to say something, and it looked as though he was shot because he was about to expose something tangible.I followed them till we entered a ward. "Please wait here," the main nurse said to me, but I saw

RUBBY'S POV My nose flared in anger. How dare he ask him not to show remorse? Does he even care?"Why are you kneeling!" Alex shouted again, even the driver was confused.The veins in his head had all popped out now, he was more annoyed than he had been the entire week.The driver muttered a please and stood up."Get in the car, we aren't home yet."Before he could enter the car, too, I held him back. "What's this supposed to mean? Have you no conscience? How dare you? He tried to kill my father, and even if he was coerced, have I no right to know about such decisions before you take such drastic actions? Is there no better approach to this? It's on the news; it's everywhere; think of my mother, how deeply she's hurt, think of my father who now lives in constant fear for his life; what about me?" My voice broke as I spoke.Alex took a few steps forward and made sure he stood very close to me. I used that opportunity to take in his features. He had suddenly become so rough, his beard

RUBBY'S POV Alex shook his head, but I didn't want to believe him; there was a nurse and a doctor; I could swear on that."Is this the room?" The nurse said pointing to the door."Yes, yes, it is.""It's always out of bounds because only people shot and are on the verge of death are wheeled into this compartment; it's confidential, but since you insist..." She pushed open the door, and my jaw fell.Did I hallucinate or something? Nolan had been wheeled into this room."Is your doctor around, I want to speak with him," my voice shook."Him?" The nurse asked."Yes, him. Blonde hair, tiny eyes, gap tooth.""What time?""About three hours ago."She shook her head. "No male doctor was assigned this compartment as of that time. Well, the hospital has more female doctors, so we only have one male doctor in this compartment, and he's been on leave for a week now. Aside from that, no nurse, auxiliary nurse or even a worker matches your description.""What! Nolan, he was also watched.""Were t

RUBBY'S POV I stood there for half an hour reflecting on what Dad had said. Truth was, Trisha wasn't the only person Nolan cheated with, I caught him each time and forgave him, though he always had an excuse. When he did the same with Trisha, I felt really stupid, and I couldn't stand it anymore.But now, thinking of Alex, that lady was completely unclad. Was there any other thing to prove he didn't do anything?I shook my head; well, I was so done with him regardless, till I found out if he was innocent or not; for the time being, I would be gentle on myself.Though it was cold, I couldn't sleep. My mind kept drifting back to Annie's words, "Your mother sent me." Why? What's the desperation all about. I turned to the other side of the bed; another thought came in: how Alex had shielded me from Annie's disgusting hand.Why was I even thinking about it? Morning took an eternity before it came; I kissed both parents goodbye and headed for Josh's hospital.His face brightened the mome
