Chapter Ten
William Anderson was coming around fully with his wife Alexis by his side. His doctor was just in to check him out with a report telling his wife that he should be coming around anytime soon.
After checking the lab report on his blood work. He was quite pleased that he was going to be fine. Even though they need to catch the one responsible for giving him the drug. New York City already has enough drug addicts on the streets.
Alexis was watching his eyes when he finally opened them with seeing his wife with tears falling down her face. "Do I look that bad, babe?" He says in a low tone with his tongue and mouth dry as hell.
She had to laugh a little. However she was glad he would be all right and no doubt wanting to get back to work under cover at the halfway house. But of course it will be up to his doctor with leaving the hospital. "Earlier you did sweetie, however your looking so much better after the doctor was able to clean out blood stream to be normal again." She said with kissing him on the cheek and grabbing the pitcher to fill his cup with water and help with the dryness.
"Where is my partner Lt. Alverez?" He asked being a cop that he is and wanting answers.
"Working on the case with trying to figure out who did this to you, sweetie. I believe he even had gotten my father involved as well with helping him. I don't know the rest of the details, however I do know that the man that injected the drug into you name Mouse is being protected by the Witness Protection Program and heading out west somewhere."
"So he decided to talk to the authorities after all with the mistake he made?" He replies with Alexis helping him to sit up in bed with pushing the remote. She was able to tell that he was feeling so much better and acting more like himself.
"I would assume so sweetie. Now do me a favor and take it easy. I need to go home and check up on our daughter and than some sleep. I believe your doctor will be back at some point to check up on you. I will make the point they bring in food for you since your doctor did mention it that you might be hungry when you wake up." She says with a smile and a kiss onto his lips quickly before leaving.
"Alexis, I love you. Thank you for being here with me in the hospital. I can't wait to get back onto my feet again and work the case."
"I love you too. However I suggest you don't worry about the case with my father, Lt. Alerez and others trying to catch a drug dealer. I need to go now." She puts on her jacket with the chill in the air outside, it's no sense for her to get sick as well.
