A nurse woke me up. She asked if I thought I could wake up and eat. I said, yes. Thankyou. I was tired being up a lot last night taking care of the babies. The nurse said, the doctor would like you to take a shower so I put a new gown and other things in the bathroom. Let me know when you are ready and I will come and help you. She leaned over and quietly said, The doctor wanted me to remind you to keep your nipples clean and I put somethings on the table for that. I said, thankyou. Matthew had the two baby beds by his bed. He was sitting on his bed with his legs crossed meditating. When he would hear a noise he would open one or both eyes and look at the babies. He had been helping during the night with handing the babies to Angel to be fed, burping and diaper changing. This gave Angel a chance to get a little more sleep. After breakfast a man came in and gave Matthew a large yellow envelope with two birth certificates. Matthew look at them and still couldn’t believe that he had 2 new children. He looked down at the babies and thought they are so precious. He felt so blessed. The nurse took Angel in the bathroom and when she came out she said, she felt really good. Matthew had texted his mom and asked her to get his some more daddy shirts. Mom said, she had two that had not been opened. She would send them over and order more. A while later a nurse came in with the two shirts saying someone left these at the front desk for Matthew. Matthew thanked her and put them on the bed for later. Angel got a text from Scott asking how she was. She texted back that she had the babies and Josh was bringing everyone over at 4pm to see the babies. Conner texted wanting to know how she was doing. She told him she had the babies. He said, to let him know when he could come and visit. She said, she would let him know. Around 4pm Matthew said, I am going down the hall to see how Jean is doing while everyone is here. I am not ready to let Mom see me yet until more bruises disappear. Angel said, ok. Matthew left. A few minutes later everyone showed up and Josh had the dog following him. Angel who had a robe on. She tied it tightly and got out of bed. She told mom which one was the girl and which one was the boy. Angel picked up the girl for mom to hold. Daniela with her two boys were coming in the door with the youngest saying he needed a drink of water. Daniela said, go back to the desk at the front and ask the nurse for a bottle of water. She will give it to you. He ran to the front. Daniela asked her oldest to sit with her on Matthew’s bed until mom could show them the babies. The boy asked the nurse for a bottle of water. She opened the fridge behind her and it was empty. The nurse said, I will have to go in back and get you one. Just stay right there. The boy was play around the desk and at the other end of the desk was another hall. He looked down the hall just as Matthew walked across at the end of the hall. His eyes got really big. He said, A jedi. A real live jedi. The nurse leaned over the desk and said, here is the water. He just looked at her for a minute. Then took the water and ran to Angel’s room. Jack was just going in followed by Scott. The boy ran up to Daniela all excited and said, mom, mom, there is a jedi. Can we go see the jedi. Daniela said, sit here quietly we are are going to see the babies. The boy said, then can we go see the jedi. The older boy leaned over to him and said, stupid. Jedi’s are in movies. The young boy started arguing with his brother. He said, I saw one down the hall. A really one. Angel was going to pick up and hand the baby boy to Daniela. Scott heard the boy and looked puzzled. He looked at the boy and the bed with the daddy shirts on it. He looked at Angel and she wasn’t wearing his ring. She was wearing Matthew’s ring. Hurt, rage and hate came over him. Scott wanted to scream. Scott knew Matthew was back. That is why she didn’t have him come to the the birth of the babies. Angel looked up and saw the hurt on his face. She rolled her lips in to keep from crying. She knew he was hurting. She felt the same pain go threw her. She became sick to her stomach from the pain. The room started spinning. She said to Daniela, could you pick up the baby I have to sit down. Daniela looked at Angel and she was white as a sheet. Daniela knew she was headed for the floor. Daniela said to Jack, could you help her back into bed. She looks very ill. Scott stormed out of the room. Jack helped Angel back into bed and Daniela pushed the nurse call button. The nurse call immediately. She was very upset. The nurse said, oh no. You people can not be in here and with a dog. Please take the children and the dog out. The nurse knew mom and said, let me help you put the baby in its bed. Then I will get you a gown and mask so you can see the babies. Jack, Daniela and the kids left. Josh and the dog waited outside for mom. The nurse had called for a doctor and more help. Medical people started entering the room. The doctor on call started checking out Angel. Angel said, she was sick and going to pass out. The nurse who had first come into the room had got a mask and hospital gown for mom. Mom said, since Angel is sick maybe I should come back tomorrow. The nurse said, ok but just you. Then you will need a mask and gown. Mom thanked her and Josh took her home. The doctor checking out Angel was asking what was wrong. Angel could only whisper it hurts so much and shut her eyes. The doctor could not find anything wrong and told the nurse to have a nurse take care of the babies. The doctor said to Angel, I am going to have this nurse check your vitals every 15 minutes. I can’t find anything wrong so if you can tell the nurse anything she will call me. Angel opened her eyes and said, ok. It’s just my stomach. I am sick to my stomach. The doctor left and Angel asked the nurse for some ice for her head. After awhile Angel started feeling better. Angel said, to the nurse could you text Dr. Walton for me. The nurse said, sure. Angel said, I am going to try and sleep.
Scott went to his room and slammed the door. He threw open some cabinets until he found a large bottle of Everclear. He sat in his chair, opened it and started drinking it. He was talking to himself out loud. He can’t just walk in here and claim her, she is mine. He is supposed to be dead. Those are my children now, not his. I will have to kill him. After a few minutes he went outside with the bottle in hand and looked at the mountain side. The sun was starting to go down. He started up the hill, drinking and talking loudly. Matthew showed after a while to find the two nurses. Angel’s nurse said, she was there because Angel was sick. Matthew took Angel’s hand and she pulled it away under the sheet. She said, I need to sleep. She said, to the nurse I think I am going to throw up could you get me something to throw up in? The nurse gave her a small dish and put it near her head. Angel put the ice pack back on her head, shut her eyes and tried to sleep. Just then one of Carlson’s men came in and said, there was a problem Matthew needed to see to. Matthew followed him out the front door. It was dark but everything was well lit up partly due to a full moon. The man pointed at Scott at the top of the mountain. He said, Scott is going to jump. Matthew said, thankyou my brother. Matthew went up the hill side like there were steps and in a matter of a few minutes Matthew was at the top. The man at the bottom was amazed. It took most people at least an hour to reach the top. Scott was totally drunk and turned to Matthew saying, You are supposed to be dead so I have to kill you and fell down. Matthew just looked at him. Scott stood up with the bottle in his left hand and he took a swing at Matthew will his right. Matthew stepped back. Scott said, you are supposed to be dead so I have to kill you. Scott tried to take another swing and Matthew moved but had to grab Scott by the back of shirt so he didn’t go over the edge. When he pulled him back Scott sat down and passed out. Matthew picked him up and carried him in a matter of minutes down the hill. Matthew took him down stairs to where Serena was. He had the guard open one of the rooms. He put him on a bed with restraints. Matthew told the guard to call Carlson and have Scott put on suicide watch with restraints. Also if you value your life you will not take those restraints off no matter what Scott says. The guard said, yes sir. The guard locked the door and called Carlson. Matthew went back to Angel’s room to help take care of the babies.
Angel whispered to Matthew that his mom loved the babies and was going to try and come over again tomorrow. Mom also said, My new bedroom was ready when the doctor released her and the babies. She again tried to sleep but the pain hurt so bad. Later Matthew took his hand out of the sleeves of the robe leaving it to hang down at the waist where it was tied. He turned with his back to Angel to put on the daddy shirt. Angel saw his back. He had a large tattoo. Angel thought I don’t think I have every seen a tattoo that big or that nice before. The shirt hung on Matthew. He was not as muscular as he was when he left. Angel looked at Matthew thinking Matthew is back and that is Matthew but that is not my Matthew. My Matthew left wearing a black cowboy hat, boots and a black shirt. He had this happiness and love about him that this person who is supposed to be my Matthew doesn’t have. Matthew seemed to be in there some where. She thought Matthew had returned but not my Matthew.
