May include potential spoilers for anyone who hasn't seen the episode, I'm not sure though, so it's better to be safe than sorry.
The Secret Life Of Casualty
Chapter 119.
"Emile's not just a patient, Ethan.. she's our mum " Cal told him.
"What?" He whispered, half angrily, and confused.
"She's our mum " Cal repeated, standing up and walking over to him.
He took a step away from him.
"Matilda's our mum " Ethan told him, as the two were in the staff room, Cal had asked Robyn to take over Emile's care.
Cal shook his head. "She's not, we were adopted "
"But why didn't she tell us?" Ethan asked, he was angry, but while he was angry at Matilda for not telling them before she died, the person he was most angry at was Cal.
"I don't know " Cal knew his excuse was pathetic, but it was all he had, but he wasn't prepared for what come next.
"But you must have known Caleb!" Ethan exploded, in anger.
The anger had shocked Cal, Ethan was usually so mild - mannered.
He walked out of the staff room to get some air. Cal followed him, concerned, but he knew at this moment, his concern would not be welcome.
Ethan did the one thing he thought he'd never thought he would do. He punched Cal, remembering when he'd punched him for kissing Lily.
"Ethan, let me explain. " Cal begged him, as he wiped his nose with his sleeve.
Ethan scoffed, he had, had plenty of opportunities to do that, but he had waited until the last minute.
"She's dying Ethan" Cal said, leaning against the wall.
Oh, so now Ethan was guilt tripping him.
"She's called you Michael " Cal was desperate for him to see this clearly. "I was called Steven "
"What?" Ethan hissed.
"Cal and Ethan are our adoptive names " Cal sighed.
It was too much for Ethan, who walked off in to the night, needing to clear his head.
Sorry, this was short, but I felt it needed it, thanks for reading.
I've probably exhausted every aspect of this coming out but I had this idea. I can't wait to see how Ethan reacts next Saturday. I have another chapter planned, it's Adam and Jess, using the fairground storyline that played out during tonight's episode.
