The hospital was bustling with activity just like any other ordinary day with doctor, nurses, patients and visitors all minding their own business and fulfilling whatever purpose they were there for. But for one girl visitor this was the day she was made to make a life changing decision in her life.
It had all started with her beloved grandpa now 85 years old, getting sick and being admitted into the hospital. Then came the tragic news of him having cancer and soon to die in the following weeks to come. To everyone in the family this was not unexpected news as after all he was too old now and could die any day.
But for the girl named Purity, this was devastating news as her grandad George had always been an important person in her life. He was after all the only grandparent she had left as all the other ones had died and gone to be with the Lord.
Who was going to tell her interesting stories of the good old days? Spoil her with gifts and sweets or call her my favorite beloved granddaughter? She felt as if part of her world was ending and did not know how to stop it. She felt helpless as she now stood in the hospital room seeing her grandpa looking weak and frail while lying on the sick bed no longer that vibrant old man who was always making her laugh with funny jokes.
“My dear purity please don’t waste those beautiful tears and sorrow on an old man such as me whose time has come after living a long wonderful life for 85 years. Be happy as I’m finally going be with your grandma my beloved wife.” George then said in a small voice to his granddaughter had tears flowing endlessly for him. He was also trying to be strong and not show any pain so as to not worry her even though his whole body was aching and pain everywhere as if something was feasting on his flesh on the inside. “It’s just that I’m going to surely miss you.” She then replied him while taking tissues to wipe away her tears.
She was the only visitor in there to comfort him as everyone was busy from her dad busy talking to the doctor at the doctor`s office to her mother who went out to go buy some food for them to eat.
He then motioned for her to come sit closer there on the bed with him as he could not talk loud with his voice now weak. She moved from her chair and sat on the bed next to him. “Whenever you miss me just remind yourself that your grandpa will be up there in heaven watching over you.” He then said giving her a small hug. After sitting in some silence, George then decided this was the right time to tell his granddaughter what had been weighing on his mind with regards to her.
“My granddaughter i have always loved your beautiful name Purity and after all im the one who suggested it to your father Walter, my son.” He then and stopped to cough and drink some water.
“I realized that all the females in my legacy from my daughter, your aunty Martha to my other granddaughters were all ruining their lives and not living the life i meant for them to live. They could have first successfully finished their educations, gotten good jobs but instead they dated too early, had pregnancies and depended on the baby fathers for money.” George then said remembering the hurt he had felt because of his daughter Martha.
In the past, 65 years ago, he had once been poor but wanted a better life for all his kids. So he had worked double shifts as a park ranger to pay school fees for his first born child Martha to get an education, so she could get a good job and uplift the family. While they struggled at home sometimes sleeping without eating supper to pay for her fees teenager Martha had been busy giving the school fees money to her boyfriend to make him love her.
She pretended to be going to class to study but would instead change direction the boyfriend`s house and eat the money with him. One day George became suspicious and decided to go the school about her progress and got the devastating news that his daughter had not been attending the course and had outstanding debt of fees.
“Wow Alex, i can’t believe you did this for me,” Purity then said rushing up to him and throwing her hands around his neck to embrace him. “Well love, only the best for my Princess,” he then replied intertwining his own hands around her waist. He then led her to sit with him on the picnic mat where he served her the delicious food which they ate while talking and laughing enjoying each other`s company. Alex enjoyed the moment where he took some of the food like strawberries and fed them to her. After eating, they then lay gazing at the stars with Purity placing her head on his chest in his arms. Purity then decided it was time for him to know about what he would be getting into if he really got serious with her. Part of her was afraid that upon hearing this this whole fairytale would end as he rejected her. “I am finally ready to tell you the main reason of why i rejected you in High school.” Purity then started knowing Alex was paying full attention
After receiving Alex`s message about another date, Purity then decided to change into something nicer. She also put the flowers that he had given her earlies into a Vase on her bedside table. When Alex arrived to pick her up as it was getting dark, he could not take his eyes of her as she looked breathtaking in a body hugging red dress and sexy heels which she wore. He felt like the luckiest man alive to be here with her. He had also changed and wore something fancy too causing Purity to also admire how handsome he looked. They then drove to the place that Alex had set up for them. He first told her to close her eyes, covered them with his hands and started leading her to the area. Purity was no just filled with curiosity wondering where he was taking her. He even carried her bridal style into his arms as they had to walk a little bit to reach the area and he told her to keep her eyes closed while he did so. While he walked carrying her to the place,
Marcus was tired of seeing his brother broken hearted from girls misleading him, cheating on him or only pursuing him for his money. Heck Marcus knew it would have been worse if they knew Alex`s true identity and title which he kept as a tightly hidden secret. Marcus was going to see what kind of woman Purity was and look for any warning signs so he could warn his brother this early in their relationship. Purity was surprised to finally actually meet someone related Alex and did not mind a bit that Marcus joined their date as he seemed friendly. Alex then started the car and as they drove to the mall Purity also enjoyed chatting to Marcus who was goofy and playful like his older brother. Marcus was impressed by how Purity also knew about video games and was into I.T like him so they had more in common to chat about. Alex was happy that Purity was getting along with his brother, he had though that she would be mad at him for bringing him along. They arrived at
After the Museum still wanting to spend more time together, Alex rode his motorbike while Purity drove to the nearby diner in her car, were they enjoyed delicious food while catching up. Purity enjoyed that too as Alex was a perfect gentlemen, not letting her pay for anything, pulling out the chair for her as she sat and listening attentively to her as he wanted to learn more about her. He even ignored this supermodel looking waitress who was being rude, flirting and trying to get his number while getting their orders. Purity also got to learn more about him as they asked each other silly questions from what’s your favorite color to serious things like what they were doing right now with their lives. She learned that Alex graduated with an accounting degree in England, and came back to Netherland where he was now studying his MBA. He was also 4 years older than year now 27 years old. But Purity also felt like there were parts of his life he was withholding from her, li
Just as she was climbing the steps to enter into the building, she stopped as this shiny black and sleek looking Motorcycle with this strong roaring sound arrived and stopped in front of the entrance. But what made her keep standing still and looking was the driver of that motorcycle as he took of his helmet to reveal this familiar gorgeous golden brown hair cut short, those intense blue eyes and handsome face. She could not believe it, was that actually him? After all those years which had passed leaving him to just be a ghost of her past but yet here he was and in the flesh. He was still good looking and looked like a supermodel dressed in that black leather jacket, muscle hugging shirt, dark blue jeans and black boots. He then got of his motorbike leaving his helmet and started coming in the same direction as her looking like he was looking for someone. As for Purity she was busy thinking about how she was going to pay attention to her blind date who

And don’t want make her kick me out from the noise we will be making, if you know what im talking about. I cant wait to kiss those lips of yours and explore that body of yours.

She looked at him shocked and angry by his audacity to say that after being such a horrible date and he was still expecting something from her. She wanted to slap him but decided to just make a quick exit and ditch him. She sent a quick text to her friends to meet her by the car as she was leaving. “I’m going to the ladies room.” Purity then told Trey and quickly stood up. Instead of the ladies room, she headed for the exit to her car by the car park. In the car she told Betty and Susan what had happened and felt fine as they had a good laugh.
