Chapter 45 Pick up

"Am worried" my Mom said
"About what?" Doc asked
"My husband, he was the person who was worried about me coming here, still, he was the same person that brought us here" my Mom said while doc smiled
"There is more about Mr Paul that you are yet to know, I will see you people later" doc Henry said and left
"At least, am happy that I didn t loose you all at last" my Mom said looking at Jason and back to me
"Mom" Jason called
He tried forcing himself out of the bed
"Don t try that" my Mom said and rushed to him
Jason held her tight
"That s why I felt different being with you" Jason said
"I doubted my beginning, you really look like your father" my Mom said
I remembered my Dad of so many years, he really looks like Jason
"So who is the senior among me and him?" Jason asked while my Mom released him
With smile
"I don t know, I couldn t remember who came out first" my Mom replied
"David, I have something very important to ask" Faith said, calling my attention
"My mother, Lucy" she added
I remembered that the demon was Lucy
"Wait, you mean Lucy is your mother?" I asked
"Yes" she replied
"Who is Lucy?" My Mom asked
As she returned to her position
"That demon that was disturbing me" I replied while she turned to look at Faith
"She gave birth to her before turning into a demon?" She asked
"Not really" I replied
I took my time to explain to them just like the demon did
From the beginning to the end
Excluding Mr Luke, taking out what belonged to my father
"How come she is here like human when she was casted out at the dead land?" My Mom asked
"My Uncle gave me something that would bring her to the living, since she wasn t dead" Dorothy replied
"So, this same Luke, is your father?" My Mom asked
."yes" Faith replied
"Too bad"
??????
….. Mr Luke POV ??
I have been checking out on Jason through COP Kelly but he said that they were still at the journey
It was keeping long and I was worried
One afternoon, I was in the balcony reading some news paper when Officer Dan drove in
He parked and came into the balcony
I gestured him to sit which he did
"So, have you gotten any useful information?" I asked him
"You know very well that policemen are always smart" he said
"COP Kelly isn t that easy to find out his secret" he added
"So, is it useless for asking you in?" I asked
"It can never be, I was able to discover that there is a new DOC at the oldest hospital"
"He is working with" he replied
"So any further information about how they do?" I asked
"Actually, I haven t seen the doctor because I thought it will be better if you go by yourself since COP Kelly is your brother" he replied
"He might misunderstand me" he added
That would be another thing
??????
….. Jason POV ??
I was almost perfect and it was time to get discharged and Faith was present
Faith never failed to visit me
It was just like every minute
Doc Henry came in and tested me
"You are good to go, it is just left for the wound to heal" he said
"Okay doctor, thank you" I appreciated
My Mom was already home because David was back
He had to be running things for her since she doesn t suppose to go out again
I went out with Faith and I saw David in his car looking at our direction
"What are you doing here?" I asked when I got to the car
"Have you ever thought about how you will go?" He asked back
I smiled
I even forgot about the plan on how to go home from the hospital
"Sounding so caring" I said as I meant to open the door but Faith was already holding the handle
"You are still not fine" she said and opened it
I had to smile
Since the doctor said that he wanted to tell me how I got to live with Mr Luke, when Mr Luke was present
I had to look for a way to get him
"Let s visit Faith s house" I said
"Huh?" Faith asked
"Yes, Mrs Luke s house" I replied
"As you said" David said and drove off
We got to the house and he parked
Mr Luke was in the balcony with a gentleman
Just as I stepped out of the car
My Dad gasped
"Jason!" He shouted and rushed to meet me
"How have you been my son?" He asked
I felt for him but I still had to tell him the truth
"Sorry, am not your son, you only have daughter" I said
"How do you mean,? What are you talking about?" He asked
"If you want to know more about this, visit Doc Henry at the oldest hospital, by tomorrow morning" I replied
"He had the secret you must be willing to hear" I added and turned to the car
I got in and David drove off
"This my junior brother don t have respect" David said
Of course I knew that he was referring to me
I had to smile
"In case if you don t know, am your senior and I still have problem with you" I replied
"Maybe you should get down from my car then" he said while we laughed
…..
…… Jason POV ??
We were almost close to my supposed house when something ran into my mind
"We are making a mistake" I said
"How?" David and Faith asked at the same time
"I want to make it in a shocking way"
"I don t want him to know that am not his rightful son until the very last time" I suggested
I knew that we still got a long way to go after discovering the truth
The best way was just to get the truth from the doctor, without getting either COP Kelly or Mr Luke involve
"But you have already told him" David said
"Let s go back" I suggested
David revised and headed to back to Mr Luke s house
I won t refer him as my Dad again
"What s the plan?" David asked
"Just comply with the move" I replied
We arrived at his residence and horned as usual
The gateman opened the gate and we drove in
But I asked him to stop at the middle of the gate when
My eyes caught the parking spot which shows that Mr Luke s favorite car wasn t there
"Am sure he must have gone to the hospital" I said
"Lucy said that he doesn t hesitate to take a chance" David added
"We must look for a way to contact doc Henry now" I suggested
"He don t need to tell him the truth now" I added
"Do you have his number?" David asked
"My mistake" I responded
"We don t have time" David said as he revised immediately and drove off
He was really good in driving
??????
….. Dorothy POV ??
I was in my room, going through my book
Since the exam wasn t far, I had to read
At least, things were better
I heard my Uncle s voice, calling me from outside
I dropped my books and went to answer him
He looked so serious
As if he was thinking
"Sit" he said while I sat down on a chair, close to him
"When are you resuming school?" He asked
"There is no point in that because we are only waiting for the exam" I replied
"Don t you know that being absent in school might be a problem because they will think that you have changed school" he said
"I have done the necessary payment, and am studying in the house, I have taken my permission from the school authority during that time the demon was disturbing" I replied
"That s by the way, I want you to meet David personally" he said
I was forced to look at him, wondering what could be the reason
"Am very sure that he do communicate with the demon, right?" He asked
I remembered when I lost my gift
He was the one who told me that she was in our midst then
"Yes" I replied
"Then, she must have told him everything" he said
"Which everything?" I asked
"About David s father" he replied
Still, I was confused
"Just tell him to meet me when he will be chanced free"
"So that we could talk about his father" he added
I was really lost but I still had to do as he said
??????
….Mr Luke POV ??
I didn t understand what Jason was trying to say
My hope of so many years was getting weak
I wouldn t stand what was trying to happen
I had to go straight to the hospital
That was the same hospital that Officer Dan told me about
I had to go with him
When we got there, we met with the nurses but they said that the doc wasn t around
It was disappointing
"Oh Mr Luke!" One of the nurses shouted
Even though I was popular and well respected, people hardly recognize me
"Don t be annoyed sir, I will call him for you" she added
She made the call immediately and reported that the doctor would be there in some minutes
I had to look for somewhere to wait for him
??????
….. Jason POV ??
We arrived at the hospital and David parked
"Don t rush, unless he won t believe you" David said while I nodded holding my chest
I had to calm down because I was already breathing heavily
"I just hope they haven t met him" I responded
I opened the door and got down
David did
"Are you going with me?" I asked
"We have to make it look real because we were there together" he replied
I smiled
I can t even explain how I felt
"Yes" Faith said as she opened the other door and got down
"We don t have time" David said
I remembered that we were up to something
"Let s go" I responded
David locked the car before following me
Meanwhile I was already walking with Faith
Mr Luke was almost coming out from the hospital when we gets in
I looked from him to that same gentleman I saw him with
In their house
I wouldn t want to think about him
"Dad" I said laughing
He was totally confused
He looked at me and then to the man beside him
"I was only joking Dad" I added
"He wanted to see your move if he is in danger" David supported
"What do you mean? You are creating scene here" he said
"Actually, this is the hospital I was admitted, after getting shot some days ago, I guess you are not aware of it" I said
"Shot? When?" He asked
He sounds so caring
"Just after the journey" I replied
"By who? You know am not aware of what you went to do" he asked
"It was just criminals that was been chased by police, but am good now" I lied
I still felt some pains
"So why the prank because the doctor is coming?" He asked
I even forgot about that
"Let s go first" I said while he just looked at me again before looking at David and Faith
"Who are they?" He asked
"My friends, they were those that I went with" I replied
??????
….. Officer Dan POV ??
Figuring out something was never hard for me
Checking out what was happening and what happened, it shows that there was something behind Mr Luke s son action
I didn t believe in the so called prank he claimed
And I was ready to look into it
??????
…. Bonny POV ??
Being in the land of dead was the most boring things in living
Just walking around with no destination
The worst part was that there was no much human there
Only me, Jenny and one other girl
Sometimes, an old woman who Jenny refered to as the queen mother do visit us
She narrated to us the reason we found ourselves there
She said that if I had lived, I will surely be worst on earth
She said that David and Dorothy might end up being together
And that s what I won t be able to stand if I lived
She added, saying that she took me out of the world because she want only her to be in charge of wickedness
That was greedy tho
According to her, she said that I would be useful to her in the future
That she loves my planning method
I wondered what planning would be doing in the land of dead
The final hope was that she said that there was still a chance for us to go back to the earth
??????
….. David POV ??
Jason had to go with his father, just to make everything real
While I went home with Faith
That evening, he messaged me for a location that we could meet up for more planning
I would have called Dorothy but unfortunately, she wasn t with phone
I drove with Faith, straight to the location
Jason was already present
The hug he had with Faith was
Hmmmm
I even felt jealous
I wished I had gotten one
"It is enough please" I said as I sat down on a chair that was in the table, Jason was sitting
"Maybe you haven t missed someone before" Jason said while I smiled
"It was just few hours ago mehn" I responded
"Still" Faith responded
I had to keep calm
I couldn t face both of them
It was a restaurant, so we ordered for something
"So why did you suddenly changed your mind?" I asked
I wanted to know if he was already aware that Mr Luke wasn t in his rightful position
"I believe that there is something else behind my story and I need to find a way to get it out" he replied
"Do you think doc Henry is aware of it?" I asked
"How can I be sure when he haven t tried telling me anything about my own life" he replied
It was clear that he wasn t aware of it but his instinct couldn t let him be
"So what is the plan now?" I asked
"We need to look for a way to convince him, so that he will tell us that secret" he said
"I think it is really important" he added
Maybe after that, I will tell him the main secret
Thanks to Lucy
I wouldn t have known
That s what I will be thanking her for
??????
….. Doc Henry POV ??
I came back almost immediately after when the nurse called me about Mr Luke looking for me
But before I could get to the hospital, he was gone
I knew him as a serious man but I couldn t tell what was his mind
I was in my office that evening when I was called that Jason and David were there
I asked them in
"Am loving this team" I said smiling
They greeted me before sitting down
"The other ladies?" I asked
"Already home, this is our business not theirs" David replied
He sounds to be the senior
Even though it was hard to figure out
Due to the early separation
"We are actually here for me" Jason said
"What about you?" I asked
"I want to know how I got separated, I believe there is something else on top of that" he replied while I smiled
Smart
"Of course there s, but I don t really know about it" I replied
"Let me know first about my separation" he said
"Are you aware that your father was here?" I asked
"Not my father, and you know" he responded
"Actually, we were the one who interrupted his visiting because Jason thinks that it wasn t yet time for him to know the truth" David replied
"We almost made a mistake" Jason supported
I guessed, it was true
Mr Luke needs to go through a lot, even from whom he thinks that was his son
"I think you are right, I only have to tell you about how you get separated but no other information" I said
"I accept" Jason responded
…..
#FlashBack
Just one week after when COP Kelly was satisfied about the killing of Mrs Florida Paul and her kids
He rewarded doc Henry in additional
He didn t expect it the way doc Henry did it
======}{?? COP Kelly ??}{======
Peace of mind was what I believe was the best gift of life after air
I knew that evil was one thing that you could do, and it will be backfiring you
Instead of letting it get you down, you just have to push further
I was now left with no other option than to protect my reputation
Since I was born
It was Sunday afternoon
I was in my house
Sully visited me earlier with her pregnancy, her seven months pregnant
It was really getting to time and I was yet to see her parents for marriage
I had to contact Luke for it
Since he was my only family
He assured me that he was right beside me in anytime
Just as Sully left, an unknown number called
It was a foreign line
I didn t pick it at first until it called again
I had to pick it
"This is Ella"; her voice sounded
I wished I could hang up
Her trouble was another thing
But I wouldn t try that
"Ella" I said
"Yes, this is my Dubai line" she replied
"What do you want?" I asked
"Checking on a friend isn t a bad thing, or do you want three rounds?" She asked and laughed
"You are married for crying out loud" I responded
"That s why am calling" she said
"How do you mean?" I asked
"I have been in Dubai for some months now, looking for solution" she replied
"Which solution?" I asked
"Doctor said that I won t be able to conceive again" she replied
"Why?"
"He said that my womb has been damaged" she replied
"If that s so, why then are you looking for solution? It can t be possible again" I said
"Anyway, I called you, so that you can make a plan on this" she said
"You got to be kidding, what plan?"
"I want to have a male baby for my husband, no matter what" she replied
I just hoped that it wasn t what I was thinking
"Then do it your way!" I shouted as if I was angry
"Don t shout at me, I can change my mind, I still have the video, remember" she said
The real devil
Always threatening
"Okay calm down, what do you want me to do?" I asked
"Good, I want you to make anything possible for me to show my husband, his son" she replied
"If not, just know that your child and Sully are in trouble" she added
That s another ugly threat
"Give me some days to think please" I said
"No problem but you need to be fast because my husband is worried, as in he wants to see me" she said
She thought but Luke was just having his time with different bitches
"I will call you by tomorrow" I replied and hung up before she could say anything
I needed to think for a way out
======}{ ?? Ella ??}{======
In this life, you don t have to loose opportunity
Lustful life was the sweetest but ugliest life
It comes out with lots of things
Gain and Lost
I almost lost my life in such thing
Being with someone you just met
Sleeping in one house with him
We use what we have to get what we want
That was my mother s word
But since I became a married woman, I decided to drop it
As for Tessy, I had to let her live at London where she was schooling while I left to Dubai for any tip
That was then I remembered COP Kelly
I believed that policemen has the fastest thinking
That was why I called him directly
I didn t need to bother myself that much because I still held him with a vital point
The following day, COP Kelly called as promised
"I have the plan" he said while I smiled
I trusted him, since he was able to get me married to Luke
Then he could do a lot
"That s good, what s the plan?" I asked
"First of all, how many months have you been outside, as in without Luke?" He asked
"Almost ten months" I replied
"I think that is good" he said
"I want to arrange something from here and you need to make a plan on how to come down to Paris" he added
"Just tell me when, and see me there" I replied
"I want it to look like a surprise for him, I will arrange a baby of one week or two, years old"
"Then I will tell you when to come back but you don t need to let him know about your coming back" he added
"So what is the main plan?" I asked because he haven t said it
"We will tell him that you were pregnant but you discovered it some weeks after when you travelled, but you decided to keep it a secret, for you to surprise him" he replied
"And that was why you stayed up to this month" he added
"Wow That is really smart, that why I trust you" I said
"Just be expecting my call" he said and hung up
That was too fast
His plan was really perfect
======}{?? Doc Henry ??}{======
It was a week and a day after the incident,
I was busy with my patients when I was informed that someone was looking for me
I thought for a while who could that be but I couldn t figure it out
After attending to the supposed patient, I went to meet the person
It was no other person but COP Kelly
I just wished that he didn t find out the truth
I asked him to come with me to my office
We got in and I gestured him to sit
"You must be wondering why am here?" He asked
"Seriously, but I hope all this well?" I returned the question
"Not really"
"What happened?" I asked
"I don t how you will do it but I want you to arrange a baby boy for me, even if they just gave birth to him now or one week ago" he replied
"How do you mean?" I asked because I wasn t getting what he was talking about
"A friend of mine is barren and she needs to show her husband a baby after some months" he replied
"She has already told him that she is pregnant" he added
"Even if you are going to lie to the mother that the baby died"
"Just anyhow" he kept saying
"How can you claim that, what if the parents request for the dead body?" I asked because I needed to play hard first
COP Kelly was really smart
He might think about it if I had jumped into conclusion on helping them
"You have to make it possible, within your power" he said
At least, there are so many things that happened for so many reasons
I thought it was the time
"I will think about it" I said
"We don t have time" he responded
"Okay, I will do that, so when will you be coming for the baby?" I asked
"In two days time" he replied
======}{?? COP Kelly ??}{======
Ella arrived at the airport at the exact date we agreed on
Luke was supposed to be at home at that time
I went to the airport to pick her up
"Welcome" I said without smiling
"Thanks, but at least smile" she said
"We don t have time, someone might see us on time" I responded
"That is really smart" she said as we walked to my car
We got in and I drove off
Straight to the hospital
We met with the doctor and asked him about it
Of course, the baby was ready
"Don t forget, one week and three days" he said
"Also, this suppose to be a secret" I said looking at the doctor
"Sure" he replied
"I will see you later" I said referring to the doctor, concerning his reward
We walked out of the hospital and straight to my car
"The baby is beautiful" Ella said
"We need to leave here" I said instead as I opened the door for her
"I guess" she responded and got inside the car
======}{??Mr Luke ??}{======
Having a good time with my drink and some fresh air coming left and right of the balcony
The gate got opened by the gateman and COP Kelly drove in
I wondered why he was in my house at that moment
He was carrying someone at the back side but the tinted window wouldn t allow me to see the person well
He got down and opened the door
