Chapter 23

Mr Gregory's Pov:

I walked into the doctor's office with worry written all over my face.

"Doctor please don't keep me waiting.... Tell me what's wrong with my wife?" I asked without breathing at all.

"You have to calm down Minister Gregory" The doctor calmed me down as he took off the stethoscope.

"Calm down? You want me to calm down? How do you expect me to calm down?" I banged my fist on the table.

"Actually Sir your wife is not in a very critical condition" The doctor started.

"What do you mean by she's not in a very critical condition? Yet she does not speak or even blink her eyes?" I asked anxiously.

"Minister the truth is that she is in a trauma so for the meantime she might not be able to speak or even blink" the doctor replied.

"What??" I widened my eyes in shock.

"Yes Minister.... This is just the truth" The doctor said.

"You mean my wife is going to become like a statue" I almost screamed.

"Am sorry sir but that's the condition at hand" He managed to speak.

"Is there nothing we can do about this? There has to be something to help" I spoke up.

"Am sorry Minister but nothing can be medically done.... She will be given medicine but that doesn't mean she will go back to normal so it's a gradual process" The doctor said.

"Damn.... This is all Aliyah's fault! Even in her death she is still causing problems" I groaned as I walked out of the office.

I was so confused...

How will I get to live in such a big mansion like alone?

Pearl's Pov:

Tears circulated in my eyes and poured down gradually.

I looked at aunt Roselyn who was staring at me sitting like a statue.

She was looking at a place,,,, she didn't even blink or wink her eyes.

She have been like that for the past two hours after she regained consciousness.

My cell phone rang aloud.

"Hello Mom" I spoke into the phone as tears streamed down my face.

"Hello baby! What happened? Why is your voice like that? Are you crying?" Mom asked anxiously.

"Mom it's aunt Roselyn.... She's in the hospital and according to the doctor she is suffering from trauma" I cried.

"What? Which hospital is that?" Mom asked anxiously as I told her.

I hung up the call and continued sobbing.

I can't believe my friend Aliyah is actually dead.

This is so painful.

I really pity aunt Roselyn how is she ever going to cope?

Arthur's Pov:

Natasha was clinging to my mom who hugged her tightly.

I looked away,,, looking out of the window.

"What kind of a man have you become Arthur? How could you treat your pregnant wife in such a manner?" My dad fired.

I gulped hard as I rolled my eyes.

"Was that what I taught you? How to shout and speak harsh to a pregnant woman?" Mom added.

"Mom and dad please.... You should be cautioning Natasha and not interrogating me" I flared up.

"What have I done wrong? What did I even fo wrong Arthur? I only told them the truth so that they can let you be" She pretended to be so hurt.

I hate that lady.

"The truth? What truth? How did you know that she is dead? Did you kill her?" I screamed at her as she burst into tears.

How pathetic!

"Shut your mouth Arthur" dad yelled at me.

Natasha was still crying.

"I don't care what you guys think but Natasha here shouldn't have said what she said to Mrs Roselyn Dela Cruz" I ranted as I walked away.

They tried calling me back but I didn't even turn around.

I just hate the fact that am existing.

Aliyah's Pov:

Dora and I walked out of the doctor's office.

Dora was carrying Baby Arya and actually we have been discharged.

We were walking out of the hospital when a car drove in.

To my greatest surprise,,, it was Mr Leo.

He quickly got down from his car and rushed to us.

"Sir Leo....??" I called out in surprise.

"Hi Aliyah" He smiled at me.

Dora and I exchanged glances.

"What happened sir? Why are you in the hospital? Did something happen?" I asked.

"What do you mean by did something happen? I heard the baby is sick" He exclaimed.

I gasped in shock.

"Who told you sir?" Dora and I chorused.......

TBC.....
