Silas was reluctant to leave, but the officers seemed less than understanding now - it had been over eight hours, well past their work hours, and they just wanted to get home to their own families -- Silas sighed and nodded, giving Sidney one last powerful kiss "I love you, Sid... Make sure our daughter knows I wanted to be here for her..."

And, with that, the officers un-cuffed Silas from the bed rail, maneuvered his hands behind his back to re-cuff him and guided him out of the room. They took him all the way to the parking lot, loaded him up in the car and just like that - Silas went from having never been in the inside of a police cruiser, to being a criminal locked up inside of one.

He was pissed, at himself, for letting his anxiety get the best of him - he really did never mean to hit the nurse, and everything that followed just domino effected around him after that. The guards were stupid enough to try and touch him, even after seeing what doing that resulted in - They were lucky that Silas was less coherent and faltering at that point, or more pain would have been caused, and more charges would have mounted up on Silas' plate... Now he just had to wait three days before he could see his daughter properly, and his sons would be worried and missing him - his family was suffering now, because he had made a mistake.
