Nicholas's POV

The words were like lightning striking my chest. Cancer? Leukemia? Aggressive phase? I felt the whole world stop for a moment, trying to process what the doctor had just said.

“Cancer?” I mumbled almost inaudibly. “She never… she never told me.”

The doctor nodded slowly. “That happens often. Many patients choose to keep their condition a secret, even from those closest to them.”

He continued in a more assertive tone. “Sabrina has also missed her last two chemotherapy appointments, which should be crucial to her condition. Skipping such treatments could speed up the progression of the disease.”

I closed my eyes, trying to calm the turmoil that was roiling inside me. “Will she be okay now?” I asked, almost pleading.

“We’ve given her initial treatment to control the infection and stabilize her condition. But this is not a long-term solution. Sabrina must continue her chemotherapy, and it must be done immediately. If she

    Nicholas' POV“I was so stupid,” I muttered, mostly to myself. “I was too wrapped up in myself, in my job, in... Hazel. I was blind, Sabrina. I was blind to all the pain you were going through.”I closed my eyes, trying to hold back the tears that were finally falling uncontrollably. “I should have been the first person you trusted. But I didn’t even know you were fighting something this big. I didn’t know how hard it was for you to walk every day. Instead, I blamed you, made you feel worthless...”I took a deep breath, but my chest felt tight. “I’m sorry, Sabrina. I’m sorry for everything I’ve done or not done. If I had known, I wouldn’t have left you alone like this. I would never have let you fight alone.” The sound of the medical equipment kept ticking as if a constant reminder that time was ticking. I rubbed her hand slowly, begging her to wake up, so I could fix everything. I don't know if she heard me or not. But I swore to mysel

    Nicholas's POV I loved her more than anything in this world, and that would never change. I felt her faint heartbeat, trying to reconnect with the strength that once was. Gently, I held her hand tighter, hoping that my touch would bring a little warmth and hope amidst this darkness. “Sabrina,” I whispered, “I’m here. We’ll get through this together.” I stared at her pale face, trying to find any sign that she was listening. Deep in my heart, I believed that little by little, she would come back to me. Together, we will face all these fears, and our love will be the bridge to cross every obstacle.I held her hand again, my rough fingers touching her cold skin.“Sabrina, please wake up,” I whispered, almost like a prayer. “Charlie needs you. I… I need you too.”The silence in the room was oppressive. Only the thrumming of the medical machines could be heard, as if time had stopped between each faltering breath. My heart pounded, fighting

    Sabrina's POV Nicholas looked surprised when his phone suddenly vibrated. From where I lay, I saw him staring at his phone screen with an expression that was hard to decipher. There was a mix of worry and confusion on his face. My mind wandered. What was happening outside this room? Was there bad news? I hoped it wasn’t news that would stress Nicholas out even more. He had already endured so much, and I didn’t want him to feel even more burdened. I noticed that Nicholas didn’t pick up his phone. Deep in my heart, I hoped he could find the strength to stay strong like he always did for me. “Why didn’t you pick up?” I asked, my voice weak, but enough to make him turn to me. He shook his head slowly. “It’s nothing important,” he said simply, trying to hide something behind his tone. But I knew there was something wrong. “Just pick up,” I insisted, even though my body was still weak. “It might be important.” Nicholas

    Sabrina's POV Nicholas looked at me immediately, as if he was just waiting for his name to come back to my side. “What? Do you need something?” he asked quickly. I shook my head slowly. “No. I just…” I paused for a moment, trying to find the right words. “I never thought you’d be this worried.” He looked surprised, then took a deep breath. “How could I not be worried, Sabrina?” he replied in a low but emotional tone. “You were so sick, and I didn’t know anything. You even missed your medication. How could you think I wouldn’t care?” His words were like a slap to me. I knew he was right. All this time, I had always thought that our marriage was just a formality, something that didn't involve deep feelings. But seeing Nicholas like this, I realized that I had underestimated him. He wasn't just my husband on paper; he was someone who loved and fought for me. Every beat of his heart, every worried look, showed how deep our bond was, even tho

    Sabrina’s POVNicholas pulled his chair closer to my bed. His face was serious, but there was no sign of anger or irritation. There was only sadness in his eyes. He raised his hand as if he wanted to take mine but hesitated.“I just want to know how you feel,” he said softly. His voice was soft as if he was afraid of hurting.I stared at him, trying to absorb every word that came out of his mouth. “I… don’t know,” I answered honestly. “There’s so much going on.”Nicholas sighed, nodding slowly. “We can talk about it. I’m here for you.”His words warmed my heart, and though the pain I felt was still there, his presence provided some comfort.“Sabrina, listen to me,” he said in a soft but firm tone. “I know I’m not perfect. I know I haven’t been paying attention to you as much as I should have. But don’t ever think that I’m here because I have to. I choose to be here. For you.”His words brought tears to my eyes again.

    Sabrina’s POV“Every day, I woke up alone. I made breakfast that you often didn’t have time to eat. I waited until late at night for you to come home, only to hear your footsteps enter the room without a word. I tried to hold on, Nicholas. Because I knew you were Charlie’s father and I loved him more than anything.” My voice cracked as I said Charlie’s name. Nicholas looked surprised, but he didn’t say anything. “Charlie was the reason I held on,” I continued, my voice shaking. “He was my happiness. Seeing his smile and hearing his laugh made all the loneliness lessen. But then… Hazel came along.” Nicholas looked tense as I said the name, but I didn’t care. I had to say it all. “When Hazel came along, everything changed. You’re growing apart, Nicholas. And the worst part is that Charlie is slowly drifting away from me. I feel like I’m losing everything. You’re busy with Hazel, with your job, and Charlie… he spends more time with her

    Nicholas's POV I remembered the little moments I had missed—the times when she needed someone to listen, to share a story, or even just to sit with her in silence. Why hadn’t I seen that before? One by one, the memories came flooding back. Sabrina’s cheerful laugh, her smile that always made me feel at ease—it all felt gone now. I wanted to run back to her room, hug her, and apologize. But I knew I had to do more than that.With renewed determination, I took a deep breath. ‘I have to fix this,’ I thought. Maybe the first step would be to reach out to her sincerely, ask her how she felt, and really listen.I had to show her that I was there for her, not just as a provider, but as a loyal friend and listener. If not now, when?The image of Sabrina’s face as she cried came back to me. I had never seen her so broken before. The Sabrina I had always known to be strong, always patient, turned out to have so many wounds that I had ignored.

    Nicholas's POV My head leaned back against the wall, the phone still clutched tightly in my hand. It felt like two worlds were colliding in my life. On one hand, there was Sabrina who needed me more than ever, struggling with grief and uncertainty. On the other, there was Hazel, who continued to demand attention and support for herself and Charlie. Every second felt heavy, like a choice between two hearts that loved each other. I knew that Sabrina was my top priority; she was my wife. But on the other hand, Hazel was struggling too, and I felt responsible for being there for her because of Charlie. “This isn’t fair,” I whispered to myself, feeling the weight on my shoulders grow heavier. I closed my eyes for a moment, trying to find clarity amidst the chaos. What should I do? How do I deal with the guilt that was gripping me? I knew that I had to choose wisely, but my heart and mind seemed to be fighting silently. This decision wasn’t just abo

"Second," Rudi continued, "the stability of the environment. If the biological mother suddenly reappears and wants to take custody, she must prove that the change will not harm the child." I sighed. "But Hazel might use the fact that she is the biological mother." "True." Rudi looked at me intently. "But you can prove that for five years, it has been Sabrina who has cared for him. And if Charlie is old enough to speak, the court may consider his wishes." I fell silent, processing all this information. "So, what do you want to do, Nicholas?" Rudi asked quietly. I raised my face and looked at him. "I want to know, if I take this to legal proceedings, is there a significant chance that Charlie will stay with Sabrina?" Rudi nodded. "There is a possibility, if you have sufficient evidence." I breathe

She seemed to smile, but there was a hint of fatigue on her face.I could feel how exhausting yesterday had been for both of us.

    Sabrina's POV Upon entering the room, I immediately sat on the edge of the bed, exhaling slowly. Nicholas grabbed a glass of water and took medication from the drawer, then handed it to me. "Drink this, and then you can go straight to sleep."I accepted it without much protest. After swallowing the medication, I looked back at Nicholas, who was still standing in front of me with a worried expression."I'll take care of Charlie," he said, as if answering a question I hadn't asked. "You don’t need to worry. Sleep, I promise everything will be alright."I nodded slowly. "Thank you, Nicholas."Nicholas smiled slightly, then pulled the blanket over me. "Rest. I’ll wake you up later for lunch."I merely murmured a quiet response.

Look, there's Timezone!" he said, pointing to the arcade area in the corner of the mall. I glanced at Nicholas, seeking his approval. Nicholas just smiled slightly and shrugged. "Why not? We still have time." Charlie immediately cheered and pulled us both toward the arcade. I laughed at his enthusiasm, while Nicholas just shook his head, smiling.

It feels like the entire world around me is collapsing in an instant. I can’t breathe. I can’t think. I’ve lost Charlie. My hands grip my chest, which feels painful, my head spinning with terrible thoughts.
