Ethan's P.O.V
I don't want to see him, but at the same time I kind of want to. I walk to where he is being kept in RESUS. My father spots me the minute I enter.
"Ah, look who we have here. Scardy Ethan." I hear your father call me the name he used to call me when I was little.
"Cal, told me you'd changed. I see you're a doctor now. Not a good one I imagine."
"You can't hurt me now. You can never hurt me, not ever again." I tell him bravely as I edge closer to the bed.
My father just chuckles.
"We'll see about that!"
Before I have time to react he grabs me by the collar bringing me closer to his face.
"I should have finished this when I had the chance." He whispers in my face.

Cal's P.O.V
I walk up to the doors of RESUS and immediately my eye catches what's going on in there. I see our father grab Ethan by the collar.
"LET GO OF MY BROTHER!" I shout.
My father doesn't listen to me. It's a good thing the test results came back all clear because it seems your father is feeling a lot better than when he did when he was brought in. He ignores me and holds Ethan in a headlock. Picking up a scalpel and holding it against Ethan's neck our father backs away towards the other side of the room.
"You know, Cal I should have done this a long time ago." Our father spits out.
I'm too busy focusing on the scene in front of me that I don't notice Zoe and Lofty are in the room too.
"Cal, can you please tell me what is happening here?" Zoe asks trying to calm the situation down.
"This is my father. He left me and Ethan when we kids and hasn't seen us since." I explain to her.
"Okay. But, why is he holding Ethan with a scalpel to his neck."
"Because he's here to finish what he started." I reply, my voice cracking as I speak. I turn back to my father and try to reason with him.
"Why? Why are you doing this? Please, just let him go." I plead as I see Ethan start to tremble in our father's grip.
"Now, why would I do that? I should have killed you and him a long time ago. I NEVER WANTED YOU!" Our father tells you. "But, the only reason why I put up with you was because of your mother. I loved her."
"You never loved her!" Ethan says.
"Yes, I did! Then you come along and spoil everything!"
"WELL, THAT'S BECAUSE SHE WAS OUR MOTHER! AND THAT'S WHAT MOTHERS DO! THEY LOVE THEIR CHILDREN, SO SHOULD FATHERS!" I yell back at him.
"Cal, calm down. Shouting is not going to help this situation." Zoe tells me, trying to calm me down.
"He needs to understand what he did to our family!" I reply.
"Why do hate us?" I pause. "Why do you hate Ethan?"
I know our father hates Ethan more than me but, I never understood why. Whenever we were kids our father would praise me on a regular basis but, never Ethan.
"You don't understand it do you? You could have been something, Cal."
"I am something. I'm a doctor."
"Yeah, but you still aren't progressing up the ladder are you. You're stuck behind him!" Our father says, indicating to Ethan.
"He happens to be your son, my brother! So what if I'm stuck behind him? So what if he's a lot smarter than me. HE STILL YOUR SON! AND SO AM I! And just so you know, if it will make you happy Ethan isn't progressing either. We both failed our exams!"
"I would expect it from Ethan, but not from you. You're the oldest, Cal! You should be smarter than him!"
"HOW DARE YOU! ETHAN IS A LOT SMARTER THAN ME... AND YOU! HE WOULD HAVE MADE A GREAT CONSULTANT!" I reply.
"See that's why I don't like you. You always stick up for your brother. You've always protected him."
"Well, that's because he's my brother, my little brother! It's my job to protect him. It's my job to protect him from people like you! Now, let my brother go, or I swear I will kill you!" I threaten.
"Not if I kill him first."
In a flash I charge at him grabbing the hand that's holding scalpel. There is a struggle between the three of us. I knock our father to the floor and keep punching him until I feel two pairs of arms dragging me away as security come and take our father.
"LET ME GO!" I shout, struggling to free myself from Max and Lofty.
"Mate, you need to calm down." Max tells me.
I am led outside of RESUS where Zoe and the security guards are with my father. I look around.
"Where's Ethan?" I ask, a knot tightening in my stomach.
