Amanda was not looking at anyone, she had her eyes, fixated on the doctor, that just came out, she could feel their eyes on her, they were probably wondering if she was okay, for someone, whose secret have been exposed, to still have the guts to ask questions.Nobody believed she could be bold to even utter such word, how could she call him her husband, when she was carrying another man's child.She could read their minds, but she didn't care. She asked the doctor again."How is my husband?"This girl, sure have some guts Mrs Brown thought, as she turned to look at her, even Josh turned as though he was about to pounce on her, when MR Jones Brown asked the doctor the same question differently."Doctor, how is my son?Once again everyone faced the doctor and was expectant. Since he seemed to be more interested in adjusting himself, and trying to get some air, with his mouth. He also se like he wants to get out of what he was wearing, one could only imagine, what he had to do, in the t
While she was looking at the woman that was walking towards them, she noticed, that she was not really coming to her, she was walking towards the door.Amanda traced where she was looking at, and saw that she was staring at a figure, that was standing by the entrance, she had a model kind of figure, and she wore glasses, that suit her so well, her red lipstick was visible, and having gotten the attention of almost every one in the hospital hall, she walked majestically towards Mrs Brown, her smile remained, never leaving her pretty face. Amanda thought she was the most beautiful lady.It was as if they were on slow motion, as Mrs Brown walked towards the lady, Amanda could also see that her mother inlaw, whom she seldom sees, was indeed a beauty, she also, never leave her house unattended, she must attend to her face, and her skin, she sure, knows how to keep her man, a woman like that, would never allow any girl, take her husband away from her, because, she would keep herself young a
When they got back to the hospital, they notice Mr Jones Brown quarrelling with his wife."You are being a nuisance, with what you are doing with that girl, you don't have to shout or make a show everywhere you go". He sounded so angry, that his wife was fuming with anger and replying him with the same anger."Don't come and act like a saint here, did you not see that she is pregnant for another man, while she is still married to your son? She retorted, and Amanda hearing what they were quarelling about, could tell, that her troubles have only begun, because, there was no way, she would be free from them.One could tell that they were angry with eachother but when they noticed they had company, they stopped and sat quietly but one could see how angry they looked. Mrs Brown didn't want to let it slide, so she hissed and said."Where you are supposed to talk, you will not talk, it is where you are not supposed to talk that you will be talking". Mr Jones Brown heard her, and adjusted, h
Amanda wanted to get home as soon as possible, her head still bent low while her brother took her away, he was too engrossed in ensuring she was okay, her head was spinning, she could faint anytime soon, if she doesn't find a place to rest her head.She knows that it would be too much to ask, that she rest her head, on his shoulder, or for him to carry her, that was the sort of comfort, she needed.Maxwell was busy running his hands on her head, in a bit to straighten her rough and shabby looking hair, That he didn't know know they were already at the exit, as they were about to open, it opened itself, and they almost bumped into the person entering.Amanda's face was still low, she thanked her stars that her brother was around, even though she wished it was for real, and he wouldn't change later to taunt her. She still couldn't believe how sweet her brother was acting, she thought it was weird, but she was enjoying it anyway.Her eyes were wet, but she could see clearly, looking dow
"Hello Maxwell. Is Amanda close, I would like to hear from her". He finally spoke up, one could tell he was angry, he didn't want to speak to him, but he just had no choice at the time.His voice was strong and devoid of any emotions, he wasn't scared if Maxwell, thought the same as others, that he raped Amanda, he didn't care, he just wanted to be there for her, and save her from all the dramas, he also saw how cruelly her mother inlaw was handling the situation and could only imagine what Amanda must have passed through all in the name of marriage. But he was sure of one thing. If Amanda was pregnant for about three month now and words were only getting out now, it means Dave, her husband did care about her, but could probably not take it anymore.Not all men, will keep quiet, after discovering that their wife, had slept with another man."Dave is not such a bad person". He thought to himself." She is asleep"Maxwell wanted to say so much to his ex bestfriend, but funny enough, was
Two hours later, Amanda woke up looking better, Joy rushed to her to help her get to the dinner, she hadn't said much since her arrival, she was probably contemplating if she was to be on Amanda's side or not, but she knew she had no choice about that, she need not know if Amanda was at fault or not, all she was there to do was to give her support and that was what she was going to do."Come and eat something, I made you fried rice, hope you don't mind I used your kitchen"She was been all modest, and both Maxwell and Amanda liked it though it was obvious she was itching to hear the story behind her mystery pregnancy."Oh dear, I don't mind at all, soon it would be another woman's kitchen so do not worry"Joy and Maxwell exchanged glances, and moved to the dinning table, and took their seats looking at her curiously."What do you mean by that Amanda, did Dave say something to you at the hospital?Amanda looked at her friend, and smiles bitterly with tears in her eyes, she was indeed t
Amanda wasn't expecting her brother to be so calm.He was really acting strange.firstly he had been very supportive at the hospital, he had defended her against her mother inlaw, he had brought her home, took care of her, and had pampered her till she fell at sleep and now he was calmly telling her Goodluck called?She stared at him, not sure of what to think of him, he must have taken something.The same Goodluck he almost killed without blinking or thinking, because he found out he was dating his sister?Amanda was surprised, but somehow, she was enjoying the change in her brother.She took another look at him, before she collected the phone from him.When She took the phone, she looked away, she didn't bother to look at her brother, she wanted to call him back, but she couldn't do that with her brother looking at her with so much care." Well, won't you call him back? he sounded really worried over the phone"Now something was surely wrong with her brother, he must be high on som
Amanda moved from the dinning to have some privacy before calling Good luckWhen the phone started ringing, her heart started beating, as if she had not called him before."Hey! She said as soon as he picked the call, and he responded using the same time."Hey!She smiles, as she got the same response and they both became silent again, both enjoying just hearing the unspoken words from the sound their breathe was making."How is Dave? He asked, pretending not to know anything, but he already got all the Information in needs from what happened at the hospital, to those at the hospital." He is fine, he is with his family now, they will take good care of him". She replied, trying to hold herself from crying.Even though Goodluck could hear a different sound from her.She sounded like she was going to cry, but she was trying very hard to suppress the urge to cry and throwup at the same time. Pregnancy was indeed the hardest job ever."Are you okay?His question killed her, she wasn't fa
