**** Amora ****
Two months, three weeks later.
I was the happiest girl alive. My husband was the best. He was sweet and gentle…
Since the day we left home … my mom never calls me and I'm cool with that.
London was a beautiful city and I'm glad Ryan doesn't go to work everyday…
He works online everyday and I study on net. I mean online schooling…
We sometimes chat with Kelvin and Emily…
They are really the best friends I have ever got…
I love cooking and Ryan has opened two big restaurants in London… only for me so I could be busy too…
I work everyday but comes home everyday to check on my husband..
I cooked his favourite meal as he was watching television.
I heard a knock on the door and ran towards it..
It was a man…
'Hi…. How can I help you '
'This is for you ma…",he said as he had me an envelope and I signed..
'Who is it…",Ryan asked.
'Its just a letter…",I said sitting close to him.. .
I opened it and it was that my dad had a cancer and died…
My heart pounded and I felt really bad but I couldn't cry.. he was always there for me and I knew that… I love him even though he wasn't there…
I checked the next sheet and it was his inheritance. I place it somewhere as Ryan looks at me…
The last thing I saw a sheet of paper saying:
L love you and your mom but your mom was the one who sacked me from your lives because she thought I was cheating on her.
I love you Amora
You are my Angel
That's it…. I want to know more..
'He is dead Ryan… My dad is dead",I said as he pulled me close to hug me…
'I'm sorry…",he said as I held him tighter….
I could smell the food aroma as I run to turn the fire off..
I set the table for dinner…
And when I returned Ryan was lying on the floor…
I started sobbing because I know the day has arrived…
'Ryan…..",I shook him but to no avail.
I was shaking as I called the ambulance.
I lost my dad but I can't lose Ryan…
I was at the hospital walking around… waiting for the doctor to tell me something.
'He is fine… Mrs Jones but it will be best if he gets a change of heart… His heart is really weak and he would die any moment from now…"
The doctor said as tears flows freely.
'Thanks so much…. Can I see him now"
I went in as I saw my husband so pale and sad….
'I'm sorry Amora…."
'I love you… please relax. You will get well soon…"
'I'm right here…", I held his hands in his as he slowly went to sleep…
I couldn't sleep. I was in tears all night.
Three days passed and he was better.
We both decide not to go to work…
He sat on the couch as I sat close to him.
'Ryan.. ."
'Yes love…."
'I was thinking if you could go for the ……"
'No Amora… I'm not going for any surgery and that's it…"
'Ryan Please listen to me…."
'I'm not listening to anything … and you know what mind your f—k—g own damn business",he walked out in me as he slammed the door…
This is difficult for me but l don't want to lose him.
It was getting late and he wasn't back.
I was so worried so I texted him…
I searched everywhere but he wasn't there.
I came back home as I decided to wait for him
It was 1pm and and I heard the door… He came him and I smelled alcohol everywhere…
Alcohol isn't good for his heart… it's only worsens it..
When did Ryan starts drinking.
'Ryan.. .where are coming from ?..."
His hair was a mess and his lips dry and hid face pale… and slowly he fell in the ground.
I called the ambulance again….
I prayed to God to save him .. I love him and I'm not ready to lose him
When he was discharged… none of us talked.
I drove him to the house as I prepared some chicken soup for him..
I left home and I went to work.. .
I'm mad at him right now…
**** Ryan ****
She prepared the meal as she hand to me…
'I'm going to work…",she didn't even look at me.
She walked out of the door. I know she is mad at me but I really regret what I did. I really scare her to death..
The tears alone make my heart swell…
And I can't see her crying all the time..
I texted her that I miss her but to no avail…
I waited and waited till it was 10pm.
She opened the door as she removed her coat…
'Amora….",I whispered and I knew she heard it…
'Please don't….I'm really tired", she walked to the bedroom..
I got her wrist…"Don't touch you me Ryan.. You wanna die.. go ahead but I will not shed a single tear over you and I promise you…"
'Please don't say that… ',I pulled her close to me as she was trying to resist my grip…
'Just leave me alone please…",she said through sobs and I just didn't mind..
'I'm sorry Amora."
'I need you Ryan…",she whispered…"We need you", and she pressed her hands on her belly…
What the hell … she is pregnant
I'm going to become a daddy.
This is amazing.
We are going to be parents soon.. she looked at me as she touched my cheeks.
I pulled her roughly to me as I kissed her hard.
Her fingers pulled in my hair as I groaned into her mouth..
'Please…. Go for the surgery.. '
'I will. I promise but unless…"
'Unless I.. .."
'I make love to you…",he said as he slowly captured my lips and slowly……
**** Amora ****
After our love making, we were both silence as he rubbed his hands on my belly… and slowly went down kissing it.
And slowly wrapped his arms around my belly before placing his head on it..
My hands played with his hair as I heard sobs…
What the….. is he crying?
I don't know what to do…
'Are you crying…",I asked but his sobs grew louder…
I wanted to see his face but all he could do was to hide his face in my belly.
'I'm scared Amora … of losing my life and losing you…and the baby"
'You won't lose us… you have to be strong for us…"
'I love you …. ',he hugged me tighter…
'I love you more Ryan", I said.
'I have some things to do…."
I nodded because I understand him.. maybe this is difficult for him…
Maybe I went too far with this issue… What if I lose him … what if I die too…
I slept thinking of what I should do …
I really love him..
The next morning it was a kiss on my neck which woke me up…
'Good morning…",he whispered while he kissed me…
'Good morning love…."
I checked the time and we were late…
'Ryan why didn't you wake me up…"
'I just wanted you to rest.. ',he pulled me close kissing me again…
'I'm not going to fall for touches. We are going to the hospital…".
'Oh really… I don't want to touch you… I want to hold you one last time before I go for that surgery…"
He hugged me tight…. As I breathed in his neck…. Suddenly emotions filled me as I started crying..
He just played with my hair as I cried more..
I think he understood why I'm crying…
I'm scared and I don't know why.

We were at the hospital… as the doctor checked on him to find out if he us healthy for the surgery. And he was healthy.
We paid the bills and everything and now he is set to go to the surgery room.
He held my hands as he kissed them.
'I love you.."
'I love you… more",and all I saw was the door closed.
I went to the chapel to pray to God to heal my husband..
I thought of calling Ryan's Dad and I did…
'Don't tell me you want money from me…", He said harshly.
'No we don't need your help.. I just want to tell you your son is on surgery…"
'What.. . ',he panicked, 'where are you…"
'I'm in the hospital at London…"
'okay… I will be right there… '
I hanged up and then looked through my contacts.. that's where I saw my mom's number… so I called…
'Hello mom…"
'What do you want…",she yelled.
'Nothing… I just want to check on you.."
'I don't want to hear from you…"
'What did I ever do to you…"
'Nothing…. I hate you.. .",and she hang… up.
I felt bad for all this. . I can't believe she hates me…
I was waiting… I just want to wait for my Ryan.
He is all I have now…
Ryan's parents and his sis came along… None of us talked..
We were waiting for the doctor. It been six hours and we were still waiting. I was tired and I dozed off.
About an hour the doctor came…
I rushed to him.
'How is Cole . . .",I asked.
He breath out my as we all wait anxiously.
'He made it… He is one of the most strong patients I have ever seen",he said as Ryan's sister hugged me along with his parents….
All I could do was cry….My Ryan made it…
He made it for us .
