An Old Flame

Sleep in

Ollie's POV

I'm frustrated with myself. I need to be there for Zosia. Bless her, she has been here every single day even if she is working or not.
It has been a few months since Guy Self punched me. Zosia hates him, it's sweet how she talks to me.
"Morning Ollie! It's my last day working at Holby. Starting for tomorrow I'm on maternity leave. Jacob is getting big now, I think he is going to be a footballer like his brothers because he kicks so hard!"
She brought my hand up to her bump and I felt the kick on my lifeless hand.
"Just move Ollie. Wake up. I know you like to sleep in but this is having a laugh isn't it?"
I laughed inside. It's true! This is my longest sleep in ever.
"I love you Ollie but I better get to work, I will come back on my break" she said. She kissed me and then I heard the door close.
Come on Ollie! Wake up I thought, I need to be there for my family, for Zosia.

Zosia came in to the side room for her break and she was talking to me again.
"The boys won their football tournament yesterday. They both scored a goal and they said they did it for you."
I felt like crying but I can't!
"I love you Ollie"
I love you too Zosia.
