Guest: Thank you for the review.
The Secret Life Of Casualty.
Chapter 503
Adam had booked the morning off work, so he could spent the afternoon at the prison. He drove to the prison and found himself being searched by an officer as he ticked his name off a clipboard.
Jessica was back in the visiting room, her arms were folded on the desk. Adam walked towards the table that his wife was sitting on.
"Hey, Jess" Adam said as the two shared a brief hug, before the guard, overseeing the visiting room, snapped at them.
"No touching"
"I hate this " Jessica whispered.
"I know, Jess, but you've got to stay positive. " Adam said as they sat down oppisite each other.
"Amelia drew you this, " Adam said, pulling out a drawing from his wallet, it was folded up small.
"How is she?" Jess asked after her 12 year old.
"Her and Lucas are missing you, " Adam told her truthfully.
Jessica nodded. "I miss them. "
Adam nodded. "Yep, I know"
A bell rang then, signiling time was up for the visitors. Adam hugged her once again as he drove away, ready to head to work. Jessica headed back to her cell, and lying back on the bed, she looked at the picture Amelia had drawn. It was a picture of herself, her daughter and Lucas, saying they missed her.
"I miss you too kids" She whispered.
Adam parked in his spot at the ED, only to see Ruby walking in, to start her shift.
As Adam walked in to the ED, he could hear the whispers about Jess.
"It wasn't her fault" He eventually snapped, fed up of people judging her.
"She deserved it, mate" Iain sneered.
Adam saw red. "I'm not your, mate, Iain" He yelled, taking a swing at Iain. Iain fought back as the two wrestled on the floor. Iain pulled Adam's hair, the older man put his hands around Iain's throat as he began to choke, but as he tried to get Adam's hands off him, Iain accidentally smacked his head on the floor, blood spreading on the tails.
"Stop it" Zoe yelled.
Zoe and Ruby manged to pull Iain and Adam off each other, and Ruby knelt down next to her husband.
"Iain, can you hear me?" She asked, squeezing his hand.
Iain was unconcious and unnmoving.
"Get him in RESUS" Zoe ordered. Jacob and Charlie rushed a trolley over to her and together they lifted Iain on to the stretcher, before rushing him in to RESUS.
"Let's order a CT scan" said Zoe as she and Robyn fitted him with a ventilator to help him breath.
"On it. " Robyn said as she picked up the phone. "CT is clear"
Zoe nodded as she and new porter, Rosa wheeled Iain to the lifts
"Ruby, the CT shows Iain is bleeding on his brain. " Zoe said as she studied Iain's CT.
Ruby let out a small whimper. She needed Iain, their kids needed him.
"We'll put him in a coma to help him heal comfortably" Zoe said as they got ready to wheel Iain to ITU.
"That was unprofesinal Adam" Zoe said as the two friends stood in her office.
Adam didn't care. "So?"
"Iain could die" Zoe replied.
"Good" Adam said, he felt angry.
Zoe sighed. "Adam I know you miss Jess, but you can't go around punching people" Zoe was the only person who knew how much Adam loved Jess.
"It was hard, Zoe" Adam admitted. "Seeing her like that"
Zoe nodded, she herself had been arrested after being accussed of being responsible for a hit and run but her charges were eventually dropped.
The nurses had finished settling Iain in ITU, making sure the ventilator was in place, the drips giving him fluids and blood.
Zoe walked in to the side room, a plastic cup in her hand which she handed to Ruby. "Looks like you could do with this, "
Ruby looked at Zoe. "Thanks. " She then realised Zoe was holding her ipad.
"We are going to perform brain surgery" Zoe informed her, as Ruby's face whitened.
Ruby had to put her husbands life in a bunch of surgeons hands, as she hoped they would be able to save her.
