Owen POV

I went home to sleep, but couldn't really sleep, I waited until Carlos' text saying TK was out of surgery and the doctor had say everything went well, so I head back to the hospital, Tommy who was "taking care of me" drives me there, we where arriving to the recovery room when nurses and doctors comes out of the room with Carlos in a gurney, he looked pale, and so out of it.

What was going on?

"What?—- Carlos?" I say getting closer but nurses pushing me back "what's going on with him?"

"He just collapsed, we're taking him to the ER" says a nurse

I don't know what to do, how is that posible

Just collapsed?

What?

When I decide to follow the nurses I hear what just makes my heart beat faster and the feeling of confusion intensifying

TK's scream

"AAAAAHHHHH" i can hear it like I'm by his side so I just run to his room.

Tommy going behind me

When I enter the room I can see TK crying, sweating, nurses and doctors around him, but I don't care I run to his side, he sees me

"Dad?" He says gritting his teeth "Dad, it hurts, Help"

"Hey TK, I— I ... wh- what hurts?"

"Please help, make it stop" I can see he's almost going unconscious

I look to the doctor "What's wrong?"

"HELP!"

"We are waiting on the results but there might be an infection"

"AAAAAAHHHH"

"Tk, I'm here try to relax, breathe with me" I try to make him relax but I'm shaking, I'm terrified, I don't know what's going on

"Dad, please make it stop!, STOP, MAKE IT STOP, Stop, please" he begs to me but im useless I can't do anything for him

And then he just throws up, they put him on his side, he's dry heaving, nothing coming out of his mouth. The effort is to much so he losses consciousness.

"Is he, I , Is he okay?" I asked the doctor trying to take a breath

"We are sedating him, we are taking him to surgery, we have to see what cause the infection, we'll be updating you" the doctor explains while they prepare TK

I'm still not able to catch my breath.

Everything just went so bad so fast.

What about Carlos, what if the infection is really strong, what if I lose him for real this time.

My vision gets blurry now and I can feel tears falling in my hands, I'm on the floor, how did I get here, oh god, I can't breathe, I'm alone, I'll end up alone.

Gwyn will never forgive me, I'm sorry, I couldn't save our baby boy, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry.

Something suddenly shakes me and Tommy is in front of me, her face full of concern.
"Owen!, Owen! can you hear me?"

I nod

The room is alone, where's TK?

"I , TK.... I'm sorry" I say but there's no air in my lungs

"Hey hey hey, look at me!" She shakes me again

But I can't really focus, it doesn't matter anymore, TK's  dying, my boy. I can't breath, I'm gonna die too, I'm sorry I'm sorry
