Peter's father

Although Peter's injuries did not count as serious, he produced strange symptoms after being released, at home. He didn't want to use one of his arms, he stumbled many times, he was more awkward. At first it was reported as trauma caused by the accident, but just on the day they underwent surgery, the doctor called in the parents.

„Based on the symptoms, there is a possibility that we are dealing with an inherited genetic disorder on a paternal branch."

He turned to Patrick.

"Was in your family a more serious illness?"

"My sister has Dawn's, but I don't know anything else."

"In any case, we have to take a sample from all of you."

„ Wait…"

Jules was completely frozen.

„Do you say it's possible that the father carried this disorder…?"

" If we are really dealing with that disease, then for sure, but as I mentioned earlier, it is possible that the child will produce these symptoms due to trauma caused by an accident, in which case you will need the help of a psychologist."

„Don't worry, everything will be fine. „

Patrick hugged Jules, but she couldn't calm down… since the father's identity was unknown, so he couldn't be examined…

The samples were evaluated exactly on the day of my release. The parents went to the doctor in vain, he was just with another patient so they came up to me to help pack up.

„How do you feel? „

Jules asked.

„I'm fine. The seam is still tight, but if I don't bounce it won't be a problem."

Our relationship has become pretty tight since the accident. After all, it was my fault. If we leave only a few minutes sooner or later, we wouldn't have suffered from this… I felt terrible about what the little angel went through… Jules was angry with me and not…

„ It wasn't your fault. You did everything and brought him home at the same time."

She said, but she couldn't think so wholeheartedly, since she had almost lost her child. I fully understood this… we both knew it was a matter of time and this wound in our relationship was healing.

„ Ah, Peter's parents!"

The doctor opened the room.

„I have great news! All three samples became negative, when you come down to my office, I hand over the papers and the number of a great psychologist!"

„ Wait, Doctor!"

Jules caught his cloak.

„ Could it be that this disease could be detected in my little boy later?"

"Ma'am, don't worry — neither you nor the father are carriers… so it's impossible for this disease to ever show up in your son."

„What if the father is different?"

„Then of course it can happen."

„Jules, enough. „

Patrick detached him from the doctor .

„Sorry, you just know she's very worried…"

I watched the events as a silent observer… since I knew exactly what Jules was afraid of.

"Wait, Doctor!"

Jules wanted to ask for further investigation, but Patrick restrained her.

„Stop!"

„ But we can't exclude the possibility… and if we don't catch the disease in the first stage…"

"Peter isn't sick, none of us are carriers."

„Where do you get this?"

„ The doctor said he would have inherited on the paternal branch… no one has ever had such a disease in my family."

„But you're not the father!"

She pushed her husband away from herself.

There was a rough family drama unfolding, I sat down on the bed and tried to disguise myself as a wall.

„What are you talking about? I am the father of your child and your husband."

„No! It is not you."

„ Of course I am."

"I don't know who the child's father is, you know? You were just a sucker who took him on his name… „

She held her head, tears were already gathering in her eyes… she couldn't think clearly, the anxiety completely overcame her.

„Jules, I'm Peter's father. "

Patrick didn't lose his cool for a moment. One would have expected him to skim Jules, or at least get out of the information he heard, but nothing.

„ No way… I gave you sleeping pills that night and pretended you raped me …nothing was between us… The next day, however, an unknown man got me pregnant, I only noticed too late… you came in handy… and I didn't want my child to grow up without a father ."

Her tears were already showering here and she could barely breathe as she explained.

„I know."

He finally sighed.

Bang! For that one word, we both got our heads up.

„How?"

The wife reacted in disbelief.

"I know you took me as completely stupid - but I'm not. I loved you Jules, from the first moment… but you looked down on me, because of my financial situation. Sophie was available, and since I knew you were going to be a family soon anyway, it was obvious for me to stay close to you through her."

Well, at this point I dropped my jaw…

„ When I got rich, I saw a chance to get closer to you, but when I saw the sleeping pill in your bag in the hotel room, and the disintegrating pill in my glass, I knew you would never be mine… so I poured to the sink the champagne… and I went into your game."

"Ah…,"

Jules sat down to the bed. We tried to process the absurd story… and it was far from over.

"The next day, however, I paid for a girl who was on a nice tray to hand you over with a… dating drug." I was thinking that, if you had already figured out the story that I raped you ... at least…this way it was real, but the drug was too good and completely knocked you out. You didn't even remember the incident. I tried to bury the thing as a nice memory and focus on my life together with Sophie, when a miracle happened and you got pregnant. I knew right away that it happend thanks to the fruit of the night together and with this miracle, you were dancing right into my arms on your own. I love you Jules, I have always loved you and I will always love you."

He closed the story with a romantic confession.

This "sucker" scammed us so much that we just looked around. He got me completely stupid… I went out with him for 7 years, so that Jules was chosen all the way and I didn't even notice… and he was even lucky enough to get this stupid bitch pregnant…

„Stop!"

I stood up.

"Am I understanding it correctly… if Jules hadn't been pregnant… would you have taken me just to stay close to her… for the rest of your life ?!"

"Of course I would have done my husband's job, but my heart can only belong to Jules."

He said like a sacred oath.

"You're sick!"

Jules was nearly fainting.

"Haha…"

I laughed.

"First of all… I never thought I'd say that…"

I looked at Jules.

„ but thank you!"

If she hadn't had greed, this psychopath would have made me emotionally crippled…

"Second time…,"

I stepped closer to Patrick and kicked him in his 'manhood' with a wide smile on my face.

„Ow!"

He collapsed in pain.

„Go to hell!"

I grabbed Jules' arm and my travel bag and we stormed out of the room.

„There's an injured man in room 402. „

I said at the nurse's desk, and we headed for the exit.

Jules spent the rest of the day like a zombie, unable to process the fact that she was practically pulling the rope around her own neck. Peter's sight finally made her feel better.

„ At least he's healthy. „

She comforted herself.

„What are you gonna do now?"

I asked her as I handed her a glass of whiskey cola.

" I have no idea… I would prefer to divorce immediately… completely shakes the cold from the thought too… the man is an obsessed psychopat."

„ Well… he is not normal for sure."

„But at the same time… he is Peter's father… and, I lied to get him in this marriage …"

„True…"

The gloomy dilemma atmosphere was finally broken by a phone call that said I managed to kick Patrick so nicely ,that he had to have surgery right away. We laughed at that big… and left the decision to tomorrow.
