Grant me a divorce

​ “Audrey!”Felicia called out. The nurse rushed over to her, lifting Audrey’s head off the floor. Moments later,her eyes fluttered open. “Let me call a doctor for you.”

​ “No, no, I’m fine. It’s fine.” Audrey struggled to get up, but felt weak. “I’m just tired.”

​ “Ma’am…”

​ “Can you start the discharge process for my father? I’d like to take him home today.”

​

Felicia smiled.

​ “He has been doing well. I think it’ll do both of you a world of good to get out of here. That poor man has been in a hospital for months. Are you sure you’re okay?” she asked, helping Audrey up.

​ “Absolutely. I’m fine,” she repeated.

Felicia dashed out of the room, and Audrey called to reserve a cab. She was thankful for the bonus Damian had given her. It was more than enough to secure the apartment and furnish it.He even helped her get a hospital bed for her father’s room. Everything was working out.

​ “This is for the best,” she said, trying to convince herself. “This is what we need.”
