Bleeding obsession
66) One valid reason!

Authors pov

Xavier was waiting in the corridor impatiently while his doctor friend was checking on Sarah. He didn't wanted to risk anything so he took her to the hospital immediately. Sudden nose bleeding didn't set well with him, he was scared.

It's been two hours he is waiting outside. He left Skyler with Ace thinking poor child will get scared he he learns about his mother's health.

The doctor finally came out and Xavier quickly approached him.

"What happened to her?"

"She is sleeping... Let's talk in my office..."

He said sighing.

"Ash, is it serious..."

Xavier asked as they walked towards his office.

Xavier sat in front of him impatiently as Ash started examining Sarah's reports.

"Her medical history is very bad and concerning... They have literally fucked up with her mind. These medicines are worst than poison, it doesn't help with the healing but it makes the condition more worst..."

Ash Said madly.

Xavier rubbed his forehead frustratingly.

"What's the condition now..."

Ash released a defeated sigh.

"I don't want to give you false hope. The way Sarah is consuming these shit is insane. This drug is running in her body like blood. And if it continues then she has very little time left, it's been 10 years she is consuming this and it has done long term damage..."

Xavier's heart sank in his chest as he heard that. He can't lose her again, this time he can't survive.

Ash noticed the panic on his face.

"But we still have a hope... We can help her..."

Xavier looked at him hopefully.

"I am ready to do anything... Don't care about money. I just want her back..."

"It's not about money... Sarah has traumatized childhood, her blood phobia explain it. She is not in this state just because of her accident but because of her childhood too. She is getting temporary comfort by these medicines and has become addicted to it... It will hard to bring her back..."

Ash Warned.

"I am ready to do anything..."

Xavier replied desperately.

"Okay then... You have to make sure she is happy and not just smile, she should feel it from inside. Stress, anxiety, overthinking and depression are her biggest enemies, you have to protect her from that..."

Ash suggested.

"I am the main reason behind that... It's all my fault. I should tell her Everything, this might help..."

Xavier said.

"It's not a time to cry over past... I know your past was not good but as a doctor I suggest you that don't tell Sarah about your past..."

He said.

Xavier frowned.

"Why?... She is hating me for that ash, she needs to know otherwise she will never forgive me..."

"I understand Xavier... But just think about it, if you told her that then she will feel guilty. She doesn't remember anything and your confession might create pressure on her mind which is not safe at this moment You have seen what happened in the morning, her nose started bleeding with little pressure you put on her. And that thing will be a huge blow up. It will definitely affect her mental health..."

Ash tried to make him understand.

"Then what should I do..."

Xavier asked defeated.

"First of all we need to stop her from taking those medicines and let me tell you it's going to be difficult, very difficult..."

He warned.

"She is addicted now... She will get angry, scream and yell at you but you have to be patient with her. She will also show other symptoms like shaking hands and red eyes, nose bleeding, vomiting but you don't have to worry about it, it's normal. She will become irritated and aggressive, how you are going to handle her is your problem..."

"Is it going to work... I mean I am ready but will she be fine..."

Xavier questioned.

"Once we stopped these medicines and Start our treatment, she will recover... but It will take time, you won't get overnight results. You need to be patient... Make her feel loved, she is searching that love and comfort in other things, give her that and she won't be needing that anymore. The most effective medicine for depressed people are love and comfort... It's going to be very difficult Xavier, are you ready for this?"

Ash asked.

"I can do anything to make her like before..."

Xavier replied.

"Very good. Just do your part well and I'll take care of the rest... I promise you that Sarah will be fine... It will take time but she will remember everything..."

Ash assured.

They heard knock on the door and nurse came in.

"Doctor, She has woke up and can you please come with me. It's getting hard for us to control her..."

As soon as Xavier heard that he quickly stood up and ran towards Sarah, Ash followed him.

"Leave me... Let me go..."

Sarah was screaming at nurse who was trying to made her sit.

"Ma'am please... Doctor is coming, just wait. You are not well..."

She requested.

"Fuck you..."

Sarah pushed her away but nurses tried to hold her back. She was struggling to leave.

"Leave her..."

Xavier growled and they quickly stepped back.

"Sarah, baby... Please calm down... Listen to me please..."

Xavier tried to held her but she pushed him back.

"Don't you dare fucking baby me... I don't want to see your face. Why don't you just leave me alone. Get out..."

She yelled at him.

"I want my Skyler back and we are leaving from here... We don't need you..."

She was way too much agressive and it was excepted as she has missed the dose of her medicine.

"Sarah..."

Ash called.

"Do you remember me... We met when Xavier was injured. You were here all night..."

She looked at Ash and nodded with frown.

"Ash?"

"Yes, that's me... I am your doctor for today, can we sit and talk like a professional people. I need your few minutes, please..."

He requested.

"I need my medicines first..."

She countered. They can see her shaking like a drug addict.

"Okay sure, why don't you tell me about it... Let's sit down first..."

Ash's gentle tone and experience of handling patients was helping him to control Sarah.

He acted like he doesn't know about medicines and hear her out as she told him everything.

"You know that it's harmful for your health, still you are taking it?"

He questioned.

"I have no choice, I can't control it anymore... It makes me feel good"

She confessed.

Ash questioned her few more minutes, trying to know her side and he understood how damaged she is. Xavier was listening everything standing aside and regretted every moment where he hurt her.

"That's it for today... You can go home now..."

Ash smiled.

Everyone left leaving Xavier and Sarah alone.

"Let's go home..."

Sarah glared at him hatefully.

"I don't want to stay in that house..."

"I won't let you go Sarah, it's better you make your mind. Because you are mine..."

He stated firmly.

"Why should I go with you... I have no reason. Give me a reason, tell me one valid reason for your behavior, tell me why you did that and why you want me back. I swear I'll forget everything and will come back without any complaints. Just one valid reason Xavier... Tell me why you did that?"

She questioned.

Xavier looked at her defeated.

'that's what I can't tell you, baby... I am sorry...'

He thought.
