Blood And Bridges
Chapter 62
"As much as some of us fight it, our parents have a mystical hold over us. The power to affect our thoughts and emotions, the only way they can.
Brooke recalled the doctor saying the visits needed to be short.
So she kissed him goodbye and told looked to him.
"Remember when you were little and I would bring you along with me and you would follow me everywhere."
"Taking in everything around you. You my shadow."
"Lowen and Sage look to you in that way now."
"If you can't fight this and are tired and don't want to do this anymore. Then i want you to let go. It's okay."
"I love you my sweet boy." Brooke said. As she quietly left the hospital room.
Brooke expected to see Lucas there. And he was.
I went back into the waiting room and was surprised to see that Jake was there.
The two hadn't seen or spoken to each other in awhile.
"I didn't think you would show up." Brooke said.
"Nothing could keep me away." Jake her into a hug.

Lucas sat down at the end of the bed.
"I'm so sorry son." Lucas said. With emotion in his voice.
What example had he set over the years.? Despite that Simon loved him and wanted to help.
He hadn't deserved such a loving supportive boy.
What put Simon in this bed fighting for his life were the sins of his father.
"I love you. Please forgive me." Lucas said.
Lucas couldn't bare the sight of this son in this state and left the hospital room.
When he made his way back into the waiting room.
Haley had joined them. Admitting she had turned Taylor in to the police.
But all Lucas could see or focus on is Jake with his wife.
And all he saw was red.
"You don't belong here! This is my wife! Our family!"
"Get out of here and gain a life of you're own!" Lucas exclaimed.
