Love For Hire
Chapter 32: 32
His family had come by a few times through the next few days to see him, but Nicholas had left orders with the medical staff to send them away. He did not want to speak to anyone. He had spent a lot of his time thinking. The nurses told him he needed to get up out of bed, so at least once a day, they put him in a wheelchair and wheeled him out to the hospital atrium so he could get some air. When they brought him back to his room, Nicholas asked them to park his wheelchair by the window and to open it so he could hear the birds.
He had been sitting by the window for a while when he heard footsteps come into the room. They were too heavy to be female, and since he was not taking visitors, they had to be Dr. Horton’s. “Hello, Doctor.”
He heard Dr. Horton chuckle. “How did you know it was me?”
“Lucky guess,” he lied. He did not feel like explaining his process.
“My nurses told me you asked to see me when I came on duty.”
“Yes, thank you for coming.”
“How could I say no to my favourite patient?” He could hear Dr. Horton pull up a chair and sit down. “So, you wanted to talk.”
“How is your research coming?”
Dr. Horton sighed. “Honestly, I am getting nowhere. I do not know how to help you.”
His heart sunk, but it was what he had expected to hear. “Be honest with me, doctor… I am at the end, are not I? I am failing fast.”
“Nicholas, there is always hope.”
“No, there’s not. You know it as well as I do. I am about two steps away from the grave,” Nicholas held a hand out. “I want to sign a DNR.”
Horton gasp. “Nicholas,
