Chapter 225
Nicol
I woke up the following morning with a huge headache, Nicolas wasn’t in bed anymore so I rolled to the bedside table grabbing my phone I needed to see what time was and if I had any messages from the hospital. Nicolas and I still didn’t have a plan for where Mia and Nicolene was going to stay. My headache is probable because of all the stress. When I looked at my phone it was past 9 am, it wasn’t that late but if I still have to go to the hospital, it was late. I got up and went looking for Nicolas to discuss our plans for the day. Nicolas and Nikki was sitting around the kitchen table laughing and making jokes the polar opposite of what happened last night but I’ll take it, any good moods from Nikki these days I see as a win. Clearly her teenage years is going to be hectic. “Morning sweetheart.” Nicolas said. “Morning Nicolas, Nikki.” Nikki actually got up and hugged me. “Sorry I was difficult last night.” She said. Fuck what did Nicolas promise her. But I didn’t say any of that. “It’s okay Nikki we all have our days.” I kissed Nicolas on the forehead then went looking for pain meds something I could drink. “What you looking for?” Nicolas asked behind me “Some pain meds my head is killing me.” “I’ll get it it’s on the top shelf.” He took the first aid kit off the top shelf and gave me some paracetamol. “Thank you.” “Is it only your head?” Nicolas asked me very concerned. “Yes, I think I’m just stressing about Mia, I mean she will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow and where will she go.” He pulled me towards him holding me and hugging me. “She’ll be fine Nicol, you where sleeping when I got back in the room last night but she said she will stay with Luther.” “You serious?” “Yes, I’m serious. Luther must have made a very good impression on her because she trusts him.” “That’s a relief but now we need to get cloths and stuff for her and the baby.” “Luther will get that don’t worry about that and I was thinking we should call the police and ask if we can go to her place and pack up her cloths and stuff.” “We can do that?” “Yes, Nicol why not.” “I would really appreciate it, Nicolas.” “Well then go eat your breakfast and I’ll make all the arrangements, but there is one thing you need to promise me.” “Anything.” “You are not going to be at the hospital for long, you need your rest.” “I’m not going to argue with that.”

I went to my office while Nicol was eating her breakfast and called the district where Anton, Mia’s husband was being held. I spoke to the captain and asked him if we could go and get some of Mia’s stuff, he was friendly enough and told me to come and get the house keys from the district then I called Luther. “Morning Nicolas.” “Hi Luther, just want to let you know we are going to Mia’s place to get some cloths and see if there is anything for the baby.” “Oh, that’s wonderful, I’m busy in my apartment to paint.” “Paint?” “Yes, I want Nicolene’s room to be nice.” “Oh.” What else could I say I mean they are only going to stay there for a few months but then on the other hand I did the exact same with Nikki and Nicol and they were also supposed to stay for only a few weeks. “So, we can bring whatever we can to your place?” “Yes, I would appreciate it.” “Okay Luther see you later.”
When that was sorted, I went looking for Nicol, she and Nikki was actually speaking to each other about Nikki’s birthday and how excited she was. When I walked in, they both looked at me “Okay the police said we can come to the station and fetch the keys and go to the house.” “Oh, that is wonderful, you want to come with us Nikki?” “No, I have homework I need to do and besides I don’t want to go to the hospital.” “You sure sweet pea?” I tried. “Yes, dad, I’m sure.” Nicol got up from the table and went straight to the bathroom to get ready. I followed her and both of us got ready.

I was so grateful for Nicolas organizing everything not to mention Luther, all my worries are slowly disappearing. We finished up and went straight to the police district. Nicolas asked me to stay in the SUV with Herman, he didn’t want me in the police station, which I appreciated, my headache wasn’t gone yet and it was killing me. I laid with my head back on the head rest waiting for Nicolas, it didn’t take him to long to get back in the SUV. He didn’t look very happy “Something wrong?” “Yes actually.” “What?” “Anton is being released later today.” “Why?” I asked shocked. “He got bail. We need to hurry at the house and then, can we make a plan to get Mia discharged I want her out of the hospital and at Luther’s by the end of the day.” “Yes, I’m sure I can organize that.” While I was on the phone with JP who was still at the hospital Nicolas was calling Luther and giving him the run down of what was happening. I just hope we can get Mia away from the hospital before Anton gets released because he will go to the hospital to look for her and it wouldn’t be a good thing not if Nicolas is there or even Luther, they will kill him with absolutely no regrets.

I immediately called Luther. “What’s wrong?” Luther answered. “Anton Mia’s husband is being released today on bail, we need to get Mia out of the hospital as soon as possible. Nicol and I are on the way to her house to get some of her stuff then we are going to the hospital. “Okay I’ll finished up here and go to the hospital maybe I can try and get her discharged sooner.” “JP is on it.” “Great I’ll let you know.” “Luther, you need a baby seat or the hospital won’t let you leave.” “It’s okay I already got one.” “Thanks Luther.” “I’ll keep you updated on where we are.”
