Chapter 8

Joe drove like a deranged lunatic on the way to the hospital, lucky and thankful that he didn’t run into anyone or even worse, encounter the police. Soon his wife was admitted into one of the labor rooms and being a doctor himself, decided to handle the operations. It was his hospital after all. 

 Delivery process was hell. Trying as much as she could,there was no progress in the situation. After much efforts, she began to grow weaker  and her breathing was slowly depleting. Joe and the midwifes around knew what this meant.

“Doctor?” One of the midwives looked at him in fear.

‘This is not happening.’ Joe thought in fear as he held his wife’s slowly growing cold hand.

‘Esther, please stay with me. Please’  tears began to well around his eyes.

Then it hit him!! The serum!! It was his last shot at saving the life of the woman he loved. He stormed out of the room, running into Luke along the way.

“What’s going on?” Luke asked.
