In the hospital room, Zev lay motionless, trapped in his bed. His injuries were far too severe for him to move. The catheter that had been inserted was a constant reminder of his helplessness. For a man used to being in control, it was a humiliation he couldn't bear. His temper flared as he demanded that the doctors remove it.

"Zev, you need to calm down!" Kelly's voice was firm as she entered the room. The two doctors were struggling to keep him still.

But the moment Zev saw Kelly, something in him seemed to shift. His angry posture softened, and he looked at her like a wild animal that had just been tamed.

"Honey... it hurts," he whispered, his voice full of frustration and helplessness.

His body was broken-his legs were shattered, and his arms were wrapped in bandages, leaving him unable to help himself.

The reality of being confined to a hospital bed, unable to do even the simplest things, weighed heavily on him.

-And then there was the catheter. For a man of his pride, it was more than just an inconvenience-it was a

deep blow to his dignity.

"Zev, you've been seriously hurt," Kelly said, her voice soft but insistent. "You have an infection. You can't just ignore it. Do you want to make things worse, or will you cooperate?" She tried to soothe him.

His ears turned crimson, and he turned his head away, furious at his predicament.

He had never felt so small in his life.

"I might as well be dead," Zev muttered, barely above a whisper.

Kelly's eyes went wide, her heart aching as she fought back the sting of his words. She stood beside his bed, her voice trembling with emotion.

"Zev, don't you ever say something like that again."
