Nicholas's POV

The atmosphere grew tenser, and more people began to notice us closely. I felt my heart racing, struggling to contain the overflowing emotions. Charlie in my arms looked bewildered, and I wanted to shield him from this confrontation.

Hazel looked taken aback by my words, but the anger on her face didn't wane. "You have no right to control my life or judge me," she said, her voice trembling.

"This isn't about you or me," I replied, trying to maintain my tone. "This is about Charlie and Sabrina. We should unite for them, not fight.”

Hazel's expression changed, but she quickly covered her anxiety with a defensive stance. "I don't care. All I know is that I am Charlie's biological mother, and I have rights to him."

Charlie, who seemed to start understanding the tension between us, clung to my neck tighter. "Daddy, don't be mad at Mommy Hazel," he said in a small voice.

    Nicholas's POVI watched Charlie, who was now tightly clinging to Hazel's side, holding her hand as if he didn't want to let go. I was at a loss for words. Seeing them like that made my heart feel heavy.There was no point in pushing this argument in front of our child. Whatever happened, it was already confusing and hurting him. I recalled the happy moments when we were all together and how difficult it was to see this rift.“Charlie, sweetheart, everything will be alright,” I said gently, trying to ease the atmosphere.Hazel looked at me with hopeful eyes, as if asking us to resolve this without adding to Charlie's burden. I knew we had to find a way to talk and resolve our issues without involving our child.Hazel hugged Charlie and said softly, “Come on, sweetheart, let’s go home. Mama will make your favorite food at home.”Charlie nodded slightly and then turned to me. “Papa, I want to go home with Mama Hazel,” he said quiet

Amidst the chaos, I tried to remain calm, hoping that everything would improve soon."This is all because you're so stubborn!" she complained, pushing my wheelchair towards the ER."Look at what happened now!

    Nicholas's POV As I looked at her, I hoped to convey my support without words, wishing she could feel it. "What everything?" She narrowed her eyes, her tone full of suspicion. "Charlie, you, Sabrina... everything." I swallowed, trying to choose the right words. "I just feel... all of this is too heavy to bear.”Hazel snorted softly, but I caught a glimpse of a change in her expression. She looked a bit softer. "You just realized that now? Life has always been heavy, Nicholas. But we have to keep moving, no matter what happens."I looked deeply into her eyes. "And that's what you're doing, Hazel? Just keep moving?"She fell silent, as if my question stunned her. Then she turned her gaze back to the window, her voice softening. "I have no other choice. I have Charlie. I have to be strong for him."Her words silenced me. For the first time in a long while, I could see Hazel not as an enemy or someone always cha

    Nicholas's POVI stared at her intently, trying to find answers in her face. But Hazel seemed confident in what she was saying.I knew Hazel always had her way of steering situations to her liking, but this time I couldn't fully accuse her. After all, I wasn't there when all this happened.There was something in her demeanor that made me hesitant to argue further. Maybe she was right; perhaps there were things I didn't know, reasons behind her actions that had frustrated me. In this silence, I felt the vulnerability between us, and for the first time, I wanted to listen—not just to judge, but to understand."I'm not accusing you, Hazel," I finally said. "But I still find this strange. Charlie loves Sabrina so much. Why would he think that Sabrina doesn't love him anymore?"My mind circled around that question. Confusion and worry enveloped my heart. Charlie always seemed happy when he was with Sabrina, and I couldn't imagine him feeling n

    Nicholas's POV Hazel might have a different way of thinking, but I knew she loved Charlie in her own way. Although sometimes, I wasn’t sure if that love always brought goodness. The pain and complexity we faced made me wonder if love could be a burden or rather a strength that bound us.I took a deep breath, feeling heavy in my chest. As I walked back into the hospital, I was determined to find a way for our love to be a source of support, not conflict. We needed to learn to understand each other, even if the journey might not be easy.I sighed deeply and then walked back to my room. In my mind, images of Hazel and Charlie kept playing along with thoughts of Sabrina, who still lay weak in the ICU.I felt as if I were being pulled in two conflicting directions: the desire to stay with Sabrina and the guilt that lingered in my heart for not being able to fully attend to Charlie.Eventually, I decided to go to the ICU instead of returning t

    Nicholas's POVMorning came too quickly. The sunlight pierced through the hospital room curtains, marking the start of a heavy day. I had just finished speaking with the doctor, who told me I was allowed to go home. His words still echoed in my ears, but instead of feeling relieved, I was enveloped in overwhelming fatigue. I truly hadn’t slept well last night.I sat on the edge of the bed, taking a deep breath. My phone lay on the side table, vibrating silently as if waiting for my attention. I reached for it and was greeted with a screen full of missed call notifications and unread messages. Most were from the office, some from numbers I didn’t recognize. There were also messages from coworkers asking when I could return.I rubbed my temples, trying to soothe the slight throb that had begun in my forehead. "I should have slept longer," I muttered softly, realizing that even the pain in my head hadn’t completely subsided.However, there was no tim

    Nicholas's POVI imagined Sabrina in her bed, fighting pain and uncertainty every day. Have I been present enough for her? Or have I been too busy with my work and other problems, forgetting how valuable our time together is? And what about Charlie? The child might be too young to understand what is really happening, but I know he also has the right to know the truth. But Hazel… she definitely won’t let me talk about this to Charlie.I sipped my coffee, which was almost cold, trying to gather my thoughts. The man in front of me looked at me with understanding in his eyes."You know, Nicholas," he said softly, "sometimes we focus too much on how we can fix something, that we forget to truly be present in the moment. Don’t let that happen to you."His words struck a chord with me. I thought of Sabrina, struggling against pain every day. How often have I been caught up in routine, letting time pass without giving her the attention she needs?

"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. The happy moments with Charlie had indeed drained our energy, but seeing his smile made it all worthwhile. Sabrina took a deep breath, trying to shake off the weariness that was evident on her face.We walked slowly away from the school, enjoying the morning silence.

"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.

    Sabrina's POV I run toward the yard, flinging open the front door, hoping to find her standing there. But there is no one. My chest tightens further. My eyes begin to burn. No. This can’t be happening. “Charlie!” I scream at the top of my lungs, my voice rising in panic. Tears are falling before I can hold them back. I bite my lip, my body beginning to shake violently. 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.

I cry uncontrollably, feeling a fear I’ve never experienced before. I’m still sobbing on the floor, my body trembling uncontrollably. My breath is ragged, my chest feels so tight.
