Into The Sunset

Chapter 30

And the little prince said to the man, 'Grownups

never understand anything for themselves, and it is

tiresome for children to be always explaining things to them"

"You have a fighter on you're hands. Xzavier did attempt to kill his brother. I have no gurantees to give you. We lost him on the table but were able to bring him back."

"He is in a fragile state. I don't know what the outcome of the injuries will be. We've done all we can for Jack. But at this point. What happens next is up to Jack."

"Keep the visit short. Jack needs his rest. To save his energy." The doctor advised.

"We'll keep the visit short." Brooke replied.

The doctor then lead the way towards Jack's hospital room.

Once they were left alone in the hallway.

Lucas turned and looked to his wife.

"We have to go in there together. Jack needs to see us as united. He deserves all the support he can take." Lucas proclaimed.

Brooke glared at him. "I'm not playing pretend. But Jack doesn't need to know about our problems."

"I'm taking Sage and Alaska with me. When i leave." She stated matter of fact. Before going inside the hospital room.

...

Alaska kept a close eye on Sage. She was too young to really understand what was going on.

But he was old enough to fully understand what had happened.

He wouldn't be okay until he saw his brother.

He felt someone sit beside him.

"I heard about you're brother. I'm really sorry someone hurt him." A voice said.

"I'm not allowed to talk to strangers." Alaska replied.

"I'm not a stranger. Just ask you're dad." The voice stated matter of fact.

He's perfect. Her beautiful little boy. Taylor thought to herself.
