Waking up, he looked at the lady standing before him. He looked around to recall his environment."What did you say?" He asked the lady again."It's time for the operation, you may leave the ward," She repeated.He got up, looked at the woman on the bed and walked to the door. "Don't let her die, please," He said to Fern before walking out of the room. Smiling, Fern patted his shoulder.Giselle was moved from a normal ward to a theatre room.Greg watched them shut the door, he smiled and walked away from the hospital to be back in a few hours.In hours, he returned to see Giselle's oxygen pipe removed."What happened?" He asked Fern."Congrats, man. Your woman is strong," Fern said, patting him."Is… she a..live?" He asked, running to the bed where she was laid."Shhhh!" Fern cautioned, "she's resting."Smiling with tears in his eyes, he ran back to the doctor, hugging him, "thank you!" He almost screamed, gripping the doctor."Heyyy!" Fern said, laughing. "God did.""Thank you," Gr
She slept at the hospital for a few more days, under Greg's watch. He watched her closely ensuring she didn't miss a dose. "When will I be discharged?" She asked that morning. "Soon," He answered, handing capsules to her."How soon?" She asked, receiving the capsules. "Very soon, although I don't know 'how soon' .""You deserve a kick, Greg," She said, lifting her leg from the bed."I know you will be discharged very soon, baby," He laughed, adjusting his chair."Okay," She answered, smiling. "We shall return back to your house after you are discharged," He said, looking at her."Immediately?" She asked, gulping water after the capsules."Yes, immediately.""That's better," She said."We'll go home to get your stuff and return to the city that same day, better?" He asked."Yes, better," She answered, smiling. "Dad will be here to see you often before we leave.""He was here throughout till you woke up," He said."I know what he can do," She smiled. "I'm glad too. Poor man, I'll mi
Giselle's health increased positively."Hello?" She answered a call that came into her phone. "Miss, good morning," The caller greeted."Good morning," She greeted back."How are you?" The caller asked. "I'm fine, Greg?" She asked, looking at the number."Yes, me," He laughed, happy she recognized his voice. "Did you lose your phone?" She asked.Laughing over the phone, he answered, "no, this is my private line.""Ohhhh, how are you?" She asked, relief she knows the caller."Stronger than I was," She answered, smiling."I miss you," She heard him say on the phone.Unsure of a good response, she nodded her head saying nothing."How free are you today?" He asked, changing topics."I don't know, I don't have plans either," She answered."Fair enough, we could hang out by evening then," He said. "You don't mind?""I..I don't mind. Yeah," She said, smiling."I'll be at your place by 4, get ready," He said, bringing the call to an end.Thomas walked into her room, smiling. "How are you?"
She stayed awake all night, crying and refusing to come out to see Thomas. "How can he say that?" She asked herself, crying."Open the door, Giselle," Thomas begged."Go away!" She screamed, throwing an object at the door."I'm sorry, can we just talk?" He asked."No!" She cried, searching for her phone."I didn't mean to, Gis," He said, knocking at her door again."You didn't mean to? Go away!" She screamed again, throwing another object.He left her door, and walked back to his room.She continued sobbing, getting a hold on her phone. She dialled a number. "Hello, Helen?" She called on her friend's name. "Hi, baby. Still awake?" Helen asked. "Yes," She answered, sobbing quietly."Are you okay?!" Helen asked again."Can I stay with you at your place?" She asked. "What? Do you have problems?" She asked. "I'll be there right away.""No, not tonight. Send me the address, I'll be there by morning," Giselle said, sobbing quietly.By morning, she left the house after Thomas left for h
A woman paced up and down in the office where she works uttering expletives."How can he do this?!" Erica ranted.It was a day after Greg's engagement with Giselle, the workers at Rock company resumed work in the morning. "How dare he?" She cried again, looking at her phone.On the screen of her phone was an update from a source showing pictures and videos of Giselle and Greg sitted in the private place he took her to."I thought he'd come back to beg me!" Erica said, walking to Greg's office. "How dare he?!"He opened his door with force, causing him to look up."What's this about?!" He looked up to see her fuming with anger."What's this about?" She asked, throwing her phone at him."Hey!" He screamed, catching the phone to look at the screen.Seeing the display on the screen of her phone, he smiled. "What a memorable day!""You bastard!" Erica said, walking to him. "How dare you?""Don't come close, Miss. I don't want to squeeze your pretty neck this day," He said, smiling. "Don't
"Good morning!" Giselle greeted other workers, walking into her office."Congratulations, Miss," Janet greeted when she saw her enter her office."Good morning, Janet," Giselle greeted, smiling. "Miss," Janet smiled again. "Congratulations to you on your engagement.""Thank you, Janet!" Giselle laughed, hugging her."I'll see you around," She muttered, walking away hurriedly.She sat on the chair meant to be hers, switching on her system.In minutes, the rest of the workers walked into the office, exchanging greetings. "Hello," Greg's voice thundered in the small office."Good morning, sir," Everyone greeted, standing on their feets. "Good morning, have a good day," He greeted, walking to the stairs that led to his office. "Have a good day, sir," They said after him. ** ** **"Are you still seeing him today?" Helen asked when they sat at the eatery."I guess so," Giselle answered. "You have no reason why he called?" Helen asked again."Noo," Giselle said
She lay in his arms, sleeping. He watched her eyelids move. He watched her, smiling. Happy with himself she was happy.She turned and stirred in the bed to see him watching her, "good morning.""How are you?" He asked her, smiling.Sitting up on the bed, she saw blood! "God!" She said, looking at him."What?""Bl..ood," She said, adjusting on the bed. "I'm sorry," He said, moving to see. "I'm sorry, too.""You were a virgin, not anymore," He said, smiling.Smiling, she nodded her head. He got up, carried her to the big bathroom located in the room. She held him on the neck, looking at his face. "Here," He said, placing her in the tub. "Thank you," She said, looking away."Don't be shy," He said, smiling. "I'm yours too.""I know," She smiled back, watching him undress.He joined her in the tub, smiling.They washed themselves, touching each other."Here," He said, handing a big towel to her."Thank you," She said, cleaning herself."Can you walk?" He asked, looking at her legs.
They drove home in silence, Giselle recovering from her nightmares."Are you okay?" Thomas asked, watching her closely."Yes," She answered, smiling.He nodded his head, turning to continue his drive back home. "I will avenge your death, mom," She whispered, smiling."I will find your killers, dad!" She said again, gnashing her teeth."Here," Thomas's voice invaded her thoughts. They had arrived at their house already."Thank you," She greeted, hopping down from the car to open the gate. "Anytime," He answered, guiding the car into the big compound."I should take a leave from work as soon as possible, Tom," She said, walking inside the house."Ohhh, yeah. Talk to your boyfriend as soon as possible." ** ** **"How was it?" Helen was seen at Giselle's phone screen."Fine," She answered. "You think I'd be granted a leave?" She asked. "He will. But, he'd want to know why you want to leave.""I'd come up with an excuse, Helen.""Greg is smart!" Helen screamed.
