Four Years After
Chris's Pov
"Chris!" I heard Aubrey yell over the phone and I groaned internally, She was getting more cranky and demanding everyday, Now I am out trying to get chocolates and Icecream at Two in the midnight "Yes Babe!" I replied and heard her sigh over the phone "You're tired of me, aren't you?" She says sadly and I groaned internally "I can never be tired of you babe" I tell her
"So you are getting my chocolate and Icecream?" She asks excitedly and I rolled my eyes "Yes, I am on my way back" I say and I heard her giggle, I cut the call and drove towards the house.
Since Aubrey got pregnant, I've been going out of my mind trying keep up with her midnight cravings, Well Aubrey and I got married here in NewYork about two years ago in a simple manner, well Aubrey wanted it that way and U couldn't object to it!
Having married her was and Is one of the best thing that has happened to me, also her getting pregnant, It still seemed
I walked as fast as my legs could take me , looking at my worn out watch for the time.Oh goodness Mr Billiemo would be so madI walked into the restaurant i am waitressing at and saw Mr Billiemo pacing around angrily"I'm really sorry sir, my younger sister fell ill and i had to run to the store to get drugs for her" i said while shivering"Save it for someone that care's Aubrey you're fired" he turns and leftI stood there for what seemed like eternity i am fired, my only hope of living and i just got firedI looked over searching for Mr Billiemo and i saw him, i ran over to him"Please sir,I'm really sorry please don't fire me i beg of you" i pleaded with him with tears running down my cheeksHe looks at me with disgust " see Aubrey i was only using you till i got a better waitress and now that i have one you can't work here anymore "I knelt down pleading and begging him
The next day i had my bath and changed my clothes, I couldn't hide my puffy eyes or even the eye-bags i woke up with, but all that didn't matter, i wore the best clothes *it shouldn't even be considered as someone's clothing * but it's the only thing i have to wear. I packed my hair into a ponytail and took my phone .I didn't have money for a cab or bus so i just walked down to the hospital*We
I walked into my room I dropped my phone on the bed and sat down i was worried about raising money for my sister and i also have to worry about a kidney that matches with her isn't this life unfairI stood up and tried to see if there was anything i could eat but there was none, i sighed and checked my purse but there was nothing there. I had no money to even eat, I went to my tiny kitchen and drank water to fill my stomach, i walked back to the bed. I picked my phone and tried to call that number again but it was unreachable .I dropped my phone and tried to sleep, but sleep wasn't coming through how would sleep come through, i have so many things on my mind and I can't do anything about it, only money can solve itI stayed up all night without sleeping and the next morning i woke up more determined to get a job and at least save my sister's life.I got up and wore an old dress that my mom had bought for me before she left, packed my hair into a po
I Looked at him as though he was sick, i started to laugh while he remained i expressionless,"wait you're joking right, you do know what surrogacy is right?" I asked him and he still remained expressionless"I know very well what surrogacy means and i want you to be my surrogate"I want a child and i want you to carry it for me, for whatever amount you want" he says as though we were talking about a toy, i look at him in the eye and saw that he was serious"Why did you choose me?,you have to be joking right" i say and he pulls out a card from his suit"Here take this, when you are ready for serious business you can call me" he says and handed me the cardI collected it from him and saw as he pulls out wad of cash from his wallet and placed it on my bed"Take this, i could hear your stomach rumbling from miles away so i know you haven't eaten in days, get something to eat" he attempted to le
I got back home and looked for the card i was given by Doctor White and i saw it, shakily I dialed the number, i heard his thick voice over the phone "Hello" i took a deep breathe"Hello Doctor White, this is Aubrey" i say and i could feel him smile over the phone"Are you ready" he asks me and i replied him"Yes i am" i tell him"Alright, meet me at Culla's Cafe" he says and hung upI looked at me phone and sighed well it's now or neverI walked out of my house and took a cab to the cafe, i got there and tried to locate him but when I didn't see him i took a sit and waited for himA waiter comes to meet me and asked if i wanted something but i said no, Ten minutes had passed and he hasn't gotten here yetMaybe he has changed his mind i sighed and looked down at the table. I heard a tap on the table and i looked up to see who it was and it was the almighty Doctor White, he sits opposite me and looks at me.
A few moments passed and my sister was wheeled out from the room into the hallway, They stopped at my front and i kissed her forehead "i love you Ju" I whispered and watched as they left, tears clouded my vision as i watched my sister being wheeled into the surgery theatre. I sat at the hallway praying and hoping everything turns out perfectlyI don't know how long i sat there for, being anxious and hopeful. My palms began to sweat so much, i had no control over it *This couple of days i have come to realize that whenever i was anxious or nervous my palms tend to sweat a lot. I sighed and walked towards the restroom, i washed my hands and went back to sit at the hallway, i wiped the sweat that was beginning to form on my forehead and i brough
"Good evening Doctor " i greeted him and sat down"Good evening Aubrey" he says and smiles at me "your sister is still under observation, but there is absolutely no need to worry, we would continue to observe her reactions throughout the night alright " he tells me"Thank you very much Doctor, I'll be on my way now" i say and stand up to leave, i walked out of the hospital. I went back to my favorite park and sat down, the last time i came here i had no means of paying my sister's surgery and now that i am here, i signed a contract to be someone's surrogate and my sister's surgery has been paid, the surgery was successful. I wiped the tears that had began to fall down my cheeksThis was actually tears of joy, these past few days has been horrible, I didn't even know how to get out of the loads of problems i was facing but here i am. I sighed and watched as the parents began to take their kids home as it was getting dark, I don't know how long i sat down th
I walked into June's room and saw exactly why it was a private room, it was so much bigger than the other rooms, very very nice.I walked over to June's bed side and held my hand still smiling *funny right* it's not as though she's awake, so why am i smiling? I don't know myself. I gently stroked her hair"JuJu it's Bre, I'm sorry I haven't been able to come here to see you till now, the doctor said I couldn't see you till today but just so you know. I kept my promise and i was waiting outside all through your surgery, the doctor says the surgery was successful and all that's needed is for you to wake up, so Ju please wake up. I want to hear your voice and also see you smile and i know that you want to see me too so i will be here patiently waiting for you"I kissed her forehead and took a sit on the chair beside her bed*would Mr obnoxious allow June to stay in his home as well, well he would he knows she is your sister and would obvi
