Chapter 15: Chapter 15

Kimberly Brown’s POV

I slowly turned my head, awoken by the sound of my phone ringing, and then ran my arms on the table beside my bed in search of the phone.

“Hello, Vicky...” I said sitting up slowly on the bed when I saw that it was Vicky calling, I have slept a little thanks to her, it wouldn't have been possible if the kids were here.

“Slow down Vicky...” I said as I am not able to hear her properly.

“There has been an accident,” Vicky said over the phone, sounding really terrified.

“What! An accident?” I exclaimed.

“What happened? I mean are you and the kids okay?” I asked feeling nervous myself.

“Kim, you need to come to the hospital, we are here at the hospital.” She replied and I can sense that something is not right.

“What happened Vicky? Where are Alex and Sandra?” I asked now feeling very nervous and scared at the same time.

“Come to the hospital Kim, I’ll text you the address,” Vicky said and hung up, leaving me feeling very confused and nervous.

A few seconds later, I got a beep on my phone, it's the address of the hospital she tested on my phone.

I quickly throw on some clothes not minding or caring about what I am wearing or how I looked and then ran out to catch a taxi that can take me to the hospital address Vicky had sent to me.

“Excuse me, sir, can you take me to this hospital?” I asked the taxi driver that I stopped, showing him the name of the hospital and the address on my phone.

“Yes, Miss.” The taxi drive replied, and I entered the car almost immediately.

Inside the taxi, on my way to the hospital, I dialed Vicky’s number a couple of times but she is no longer picking up.

I am wondering why she isn't picking up.

“Please sir, can you go a little faster?” I asked the taxi driver because to me he is moving slow.

“Sorry Miss, this is the much I can go.” The taxi driver replied.

I dialed Vicky’s number again and yet she isn't picking up.

“What is really going on and why is she no longer answering my calls?” I asked within me feeling frustrated, I hope my kids are okay.

“Here we go Miss, you have arrived at your destination.” The driver said to me, when the car came to a stop, after what seemed to me like hours.

I quickly paid the taxi fare and then walked into the hospital or rather ran into the hospital.

“Excuse me, nurse, I am looking for a Vicky Millar,” I asked a nurse I found in the lobby.

“Vicky Millar..., hold on a second.” The nurse said and then ran a quick check on their logbook.

“Am sorry Miss, but there is no Vicky Millar here on my list, do you know what time she arrived please?” the nurse asked me instead.

“I don't know, but she called me a few minutes ago to come here and then she texted me this address, look.” I replied and then showed her the text on my phone which Vicky had sent some minutes ago, feeling really confused as I do not know what else to say.

“Am afraid Miss, but I can't find a Vicky Millar here on my list.” The nurse said to me again after going through the list a second time.

“Are you sure she gave you the right address because I have been on duty here all morning or Is she the one that got admitted?” The nurse said and asked, that's when I remembered that I forgot to mention my kids.

“Sorry nurse, I forgot to tell you that there are two kids with her, a boy and a girl about this tall.” I said to the nurse describing to her with my hands.

“What are their names miss?” The nurse asked again.

“Alex and Sandra Brown.” I replied, holding my palms over my chest as she looked through her logbook again, it's obvious now to me that it is not Vicky, something must have happened to my kids.

“Miss, there's a boy admitted here in about an hour ago, an Alex Brown it says here, but there's no Sandra Brown here.” The nurse said in reply, looking up from the logbook in her hands.

“That's my son nurse.” I said almost immediately.

“Your son?” the nurse asked looking at me again, as if she is accessing me or something.

“Please where is he?, How is he?” I asked, feeling really agitated and nervous at the same time.

“Come with me this way please.” The nurse said to me, I followed her immediately.

“How is my son?” I asked again, walking closely behind her.

“He is undergoing surgery right now Miss.” The nurse said turning to look at me, still on the move.

“What!” I exclaimed but before I could say any other thing to her, I spotted Vicky and Sandra who started running to me immediately she saw me as well...
