Chapter 26: Chapter 26

Kyle Greenwood’s POV

"Oh no! Shit! Shit!" I exclaimed and cursed the moment I opened my eyes and saw the time on my wristwatch.

"How did I sleep this long?" I asked myself, and on the floor for that matter, I got up quickly from the floor "How do I make it to the office in time, It's already past 6:30 am this morning," I asked myself again. Brian said to be in the office by 7 am, Dad is going to be mad at me if he finds out that I got to the office late today, I shouldn’t be going late today at least not after what happened last night.

I quickly threw off my clothes from my body not minding where it landed, whether, on the floor or the bed, I need to quickly take a bath and run along... besides, I need to find a way to see that kid...

How do I intend to make dad change his mind about letting me see Alex and the love of my life, I thought. "Shit!" I cursed again, I wished somehow that all this is only a dream, but unfortunately for me, it's not.

Come to think of it, how in the world did Paul find out about a video of me knocking Alex down and who even took that video in the first place?" I asked within me getting very frustrated, standing under the running water.

Who could it be? I never wanted dad to find out about this...

This one of the reasons I hate my life, this is the disadvantage of been rich and popular, nothing that goes on in my life can ever be hidden, even those that tend to be hidden, some people for some reason either for money or for fame too would want to dig them up, and they just won't stop until your dead and if not dead, they ruin your image and reputation.

I rushed out of the bathroom again, put on my clothes, scrambled through my things, some of which are on the floor, I'm thankful that my laptop and my cell phone wasn't on the table when I pushed the things on the table down, because there are some of dad's business documents in it, and dad would have made a big issue out of it, and my phone is a must-have for me right now, as I need to call Doctor Sam on my way to the office, I just need to know about the boy's condition.

"Why hasn't he called me yet?" I asked within me, tapping on the phone to turn it on, "Oh mine!" I exclaimed as I found that my phone is switched off, and I think the battery is flat since it's not coming on.

I quickly picked up the remaining things I think I need into my bag, took a peek at myself in the mirror to save myself the embarrassment dad would give me if I were to look unkempt, if not for that, looking in the mirror wouldn't have been a concern to me.

As it is though, I think I am good to go, I'll just take care of the mess I made in my room later as that is the least of my problems right now, I only need to make sure dad or mum don't see it, with that, I locked up the door to my room before leaving for the office.

"What is she doing here?" I asked stopping the car abruptly the moment I sighted my love.

I didn't see her quick enough and I almost missed her... "what's going on here?" I asked the security man on duty, the moment I walked up to them.

"So you are at home," she snapped, "you are at home having a good time, while my son is lying in the hospital fighting for his life," she said to me furiously...

"Excuse me, Mrs Brown..." I tried to say pleadingly to her but she snapped at me again.

"Excuse you? Excuse you, you b*stard, what makes you think that you can put my son in the condition he is in and stay back home relaxing?" She said, I could see how angry she is and how she yells at me, but that's not my concern right now, what I want to know is what brought her to my house this early, I wanted to know if the boy is alright.

"What's wrong Mrs Brown? Why are you here?" I asked feeling nervous, dreading her answer, even though am trying to hide it.

"What's wrong?" She brawled sounding very furious, "What am I doing here You ask? I have come to wake you up, and you are coming with me right now," she said authoritatively. "You are coming with me to the hospital this minute," she said again in that authoritative manner, glaring at me.

"Mrs Brown I hope..." I tried to speak again but was cut short immediately.

"What's with all this Mrs Brown... Mrs Brown, it's Kimberly, my name is Kimberly for God's sakes, and I'm here to take you with me to the hospital," she shouted or rather commanded, I didn’t know she has this much fire in her, but this fire is scary to me now because I do not know if the boy lives or not.

"Okay, okay, I'll go with you," I replied to her immediately,

"Let her through," I told the security man who had refused to let her through the gate before, Thank goodness I was the one who saw her, this would have brought another trouble for me if someone else had seen her, especially dad.

"Oh, dad!" I exclaimed, he had told me not to go to the hospital, "I'm sorry dad, but I have to go with Kimberly," I said within me.

"What happened to Alex?" I asked her the moment we sat in my car, I know she wouldn't be here if everything is alright with her son.

"Drive." She commanded furiously, glaring at me.

"To the hospital?" I asked her again, to be sure.

"To the hospital, where else, your hotel?" she snapped at me.

"Sorry," I apologized, and drove off immediately I started the car.

I have never been so tense driving before in my entire life, not even when I was learning how to drive did I feel this tensed.

I peaked at her from time to time wondering what the problem is, and I am afraid to ask giving her mood right now, I just hope Alex is still alive.

"Step on it," she said.

"What?" I asked not comprehending fast what she meant...

"I said, step on the car, drive faster," she yelled, "you weren't driving this slow when you knocked my son down," she yelled again, I couldn't help it so I had to drive faster, I think I am driving faster than the way I drove before I knocked her son down, the only difference is that my eyes are fully focused on the road.

I have always pictured my love to be a cool, sweet, calm girl, it never did cross my mind once that she would have this side of her, I guess it's because of her situation, or she may hate me so much for what I did to her in the past, I only hope for Alex to get better so that I can apologize to her properly...
