Thorns of the Heart Chapter 56
Madison’s POV.Gem was in a very critical condition, she was overdosed on cocaine. My heart sank as I heard the news. I knew that cocaine overdose could be deadly, and the thought of losing my sister was almost too much to bear. "What's her prognosis?I asked the nurse, my voice barely a whisper."It's too early to say, we're doing everything we can, but it's important to prepare for the worst.”My legs felt weak and I sank into a nearby chair. "I can't lose her," I said, tears streaming down my face. "I just can't."The nurse put a hand on my shoulder and gave me a sympathetic smile. "I know it's hard," she said. "But right now, the best thing you can do is to be there for your sister.Talk to her, even if she can't respond. And make sure you take care of yourself too. You can't help her if you're not taking care of yourself, your mum’s heart is not even strong enough to carry the weight of her state, just try to be strong for your family.Her words hit hard, and I knew she was right

Madison’s POV.I was pacing when I was in Gem’s ward I had to move outside and Tyler followed me, I was walking around the building, I was nervous, I don’t know what I would do if I lose my sister."You don’t have to follow me around Tyler, like I said you can go back toy our normal life, you do not have to continue acting like we were born to lie and die together."“Sometime I try to endure your loud mouth but sometimes it becomes unbearable, how can you say sure when you know what we have been through together, I am only here to help and support you."“But you do not have to do that, I feel like I am robbing you of your life and I do not want that, i feel like I am trapping you into my own work of problems, just take a look at you, you are wealthy and you have everything at your beck and call, you are only here with me cause you are trying to runaway from your reality."“Nonsense!

Madison’s POV.I moved away from Tyler and walked around the hospital. I was walking around the buildings and admiring nature. I took a deep breath, enjoying the fresh air. The sun was warm on my skin, and I could feel the stress of the day starting to melt away.I looked around, taking in the sights of the hospital grounds. There were trees and flowers everywhere, and I felt a sense of peace wash over me. I walked slowly, savoring the feeling of being outside, away from the hospital room, away from Tyler.The sound of birds singing filled the air, and I closed my eyes, listening to the music of nature. I felt like I was in a different world, far away from the troubles of my life. I felt my body relax, and I began to feel grateful for the simple things in life. The sun, the air, and the trees, all of these things were precious, and I was lucky to be able to enjoy them. I felt my spirits lift as I walked, and I knew that I would be okay.No matter what happened next, I would be able to

Madison’s POV.Hot tears rolled down my eyes as I listened to Tyler’s mom insult me over the phone.She sounded so mean and aggressive; she sounded as if she would have torn me apart if she were face-to-face with me.“Stay away from my son; you and your broke family are just looking for what to leverage on. I think I don’t know that he paid for your mother’s surgery. That is all you want him for; you want him to be by your side so he can spend all the money he makes on you.” “That is not true, ma; I didn’t even know he was.” “Shut up!!! I know you cajoled him into signing that marriage contract with you. I will come after your family if you do not let him have a peaceful relationship with Brenda.” The call dropped and I was so angry; my chest was heavy from the insult I received from Tyler’s mother, but I could still hear her voice in my head, ringing in my ears. “You’re nothing but a gold-digger! You’re just using my son for his money!” I felt a surge of anger rising within me, an
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 60
Madison’s POVThe elevator was taking a long time to get to Gem’s floor; it felt like the motion was slower than the time me and Tyler got in.Andy and Rose’s actions were both funny and weird, and it made me smile because I knew that something was definitely up with these two.“Are you guys going to tell me what is wrong with you too or do you want me to keep enjoying the awkward silence?”“What do you mean? Nothing is wrong; why do you think something is wrong? “ Rose asked me. “I don’t know; you tell me, Rose.” “Well, you are just assuming that something is wrong.” “So why are you both acting weird?”“Well, nothing is wrong from my end and I know that for sure but I can only speak for myself; I cannot speak for Andy. Maybe you should ask him if something was wrong with him; I think something is up with him.” The elevator opened at this point and Andy got out. It was almost as if his patience was running out; it was as if he couldn’t wait to be out of the same space as us.He wa
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 61
Madison’s POV.We all rushed towards Gem; she wasn't fully awake but her eyes were open and she could recognize her environment. Andy, who was having an emotional breakdown, cleaned his eyes and put up a fake smile.At that moment, all the anger I was feeling for Gem went away; it faded away and all I wanted at that point was for her to be okay.“Hey Gem!! How are you? We were worried and scared; we were all on our toes when they brought you in.” “I’m fine, mom. Where am i? Where are Ben and Kelly?”We all looked at ourselves; we didn't know who she was referring to. I had no idea who Ben or Kelly were, but I guess they were friends.“Sweeti, we do not know where Ben and Kelly are at this moment but I believe they are fine.”“ What happened, mummy? Why am I here, Why are you all looking at me like I am invalid?”“Quit saying nonsense, Gem; you were brought here as a result of the bad decision you took; you are lucky to be alive; you would have been far gone in the land of the dead.”
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 62
Madison’s POV. I got to Tyler’s house and rang the doorbell. I was ringing the doorbell for a little over one minute. I wondered why no one was responding to me. Why is no one responding to me? Could it be that Tyler is not around? But I doubt that. His car was parked outside, and I saw Mrs. Sophie come to the door to check who it was. She hesitated to open the door because she thought it was Brenda who was at the door. She quickly rushed to open the door when she saw that it was me who was knocking.“I’m sorry, Maddy; I didn’t know it was yours; I thought it was Brenda that was ringing the doorbell. You know, Sir Tyler asked me not to let her in.”“It’s alright, Mrs. Sophie. Is Tyler around?”“Yes, he is; he is in his room upstairs; he got back upset today and he hasn’t been downstairs since he got back; he even skipped dinner.”“That is pretty serious; are you sure he is alright?”“I have no idea; should I make you something for dinner? Are you spending the night here?”“You do no
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 63
Madison's POV I stood there, looking at his body. I was trying to control my thoughts; I couldn’t get my eyes off him; his lips were pink and succulent; his body was inviting; and I wished he would come touch me so I could get the memory of our last time together off my mind.My thoughts were spiraling out of control, and I knew I needed to stop them before they went too far. I was at a crossroads—either I could give in to my desires or I could fight them. I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down.“What are you thinking about?” His voice low. “Nothing.”I lied, feeling my cheeks heat up. He raised an eyebrow, clearly not believing me. He took a step toward me. “You can tell me.”I looked at him, my heart pounding in my chest. I knew what I wanted to say, but I didn’t know if I could bring myself to say it. I opened my mouth, but no words came out.“I’m listening.”His voice was gentle. I took a deep breath, gathering my courage. “I…I…” I stammered, my voice faltering. He
