"It's been 10 days... 10 days since the last time I saw Brian, and my life has being miserable since. I came back from the mall with Janet expecting to see him, since it was the weekend but he wasn't around.
The worst thing was, I didn't know who to ask since all the people who might know Brian's whereabouts were people I couldn't directly speak to.
I tried gathering enough confidence to ask Lisa but I kept thinking about everything that could go wrong if I asked her. I mean, no one knew we were a thing and Lisa and Thelma were best friends so my guess is she hates me too. She hasn't directly been rude to me but she plain out ignores my very existence so I wasn't taking any chances.

The drive home from the supermarket was a surprisingly long one due to the lunch break rush hour traffic.We arrived home, with my poor feet crying out from exhaustion.

Chapter 17The baby is coming!!That’s all I heard.Nothing else made sense after that. Basically, everything was in a blur.Grace met us down the stairs, I think she heard mum’s initial scream. I felt them both gently drag me outside towards the car where Simon was already waiting.And that’s when it hit me.My very first painful contraction.I screamed from the intensity of the pain, ignoring the soothing voices of my mum and Grace. When the pain had subsided, I burst into tears.“I can’t do this anymore mum.” I wailed.I felt her hold unto my shoulders, her voice so very far away. I was already starting to sweat in bucketfuls. “Listen to me Cindy, you can do this.

I mean, my sight may be bad but my hearing is quite impeccable.We both stood there looking at each other in surprise, the shock on both our faces pretty evident especially when I realized that all that Mariam had told me was about Cindy.I started to panic a little. “Grace, have you heard anything from the doctors yet?”She shook her head in the negative.I squared my shoulders and gave them both nod. “I’m going in.”Cindy’s mother grabbed me by the arm, halting me in my tracks. “Are you sure they’ll let you in?”I smirked. “I’m a doctor, remember? They’ll need all the help they can get.”I barged into the ward. “God, Cindy!”There she was, my little. All color had drained from her face, and she seemed to be in so much pai
