Chapter 99: Chapter 99

¶¶ Back to our story ¶¶

Malone called for the police and Jardon is sent to prison.

We pray he never gets out of that prison.

While I'm being rushed into the hospital by Andrew. He watches me die in his arms.

.

.

In the hospital,

"Doctor she has lost a a lot of blood. Please save her life!."

Malone yells as he sees me dying in his arms.

Andrew is weak and above all devastated by the happenings. He is still struggling to comprehend what had just happened. He takes a seat, very lost in his thoughts.

While Malone phones the rest of the family as soon as I enter the emergency!.

.

.

In the emergency room,

"Pass me the scissors!."

The doctor opens my worm to get the baby out.

"She is barely breathing!."

The cardiovascular engine starts ticking, making a weird obstreperous sound.

"Doctor, we are losing her!."

The doctor starts sweating, one of his assistants wipe his face with some handkerchief.

"Pass me the cardioversion!."

the doctor says

She passes it to him.

"At the count of three, I will stroke!."

They just nod at the doctor, in fear and stress.

"1,2,3, then the doctor stokes my chest.1,2,3 he strokes my chest!."

He keeps doing it...

"We have lost her!.

A nurse exclaims

.

.

While out side,

My family barge into the hospital. They are practically running to Malone.

"What happened!."

They spontaneously ask, very worried and quivering.

Who can answer their questions, no one?. No one knows what actually happened and I am still in the emergency room.

If it happens that I don't survive in this emergency room, this will be all about it. No one will ever know the really version of the story.

Only fate can determine what is going to happen.

Malone explains the least he knows and how he found me.

"OMG, not this again!."

Andrew mum exclaims

"Again, how?."

My mum asks

His mum hesitates.

They keep insisting until she finally gives up.

"Andrew had finance years back. OMG, he was so much in love with her.

She fell pregnant with him being the father. He was so excited about the idea of having a baby and of being a good father.

I couldn't spend a quiet moment without Andrew telling me about the unborn baby or questioning me. After 9months of stress. Her pregnancy was due. She normally gave birth.

It was a bouncing baby boy. He was so cute, we all fell in love with him. Andrew couldn't get enough of him. He took him everywhere he went to. Then the child felt terribly sick. He was 13 months old by then. He seriously needed some blood transfusion. Nerisa, Andrew's fiancee couldn't donate because of her insufficiency.

Then Andrew was the only option and he was asked to donate to his son. He wants to the lab for the donation. That was when we discover that he wasn't the biological father of the child."

She bends her in dismay and gasp as she explains the story.

Then she gets nuts at her own words. With tears filled in her eyes.

"That wasn't easy for Andrew!. You all needed to see how devasted he was. He loved the child with all he got. Like his own flesh and blood. Andrew wasn't having the same blood group as the child and he couldn't donate. And in the hospital, there wasn't reserved blood. However not the child's blood group. We went in search of a donor, yet the child tied in the process!. Andrew was ready to adopt the child!."

She concluds with tears rushing down.

"Omg, that's terrible!."

they all cry and console her.

"I just pray nothing happens to Grace and the baby!. If not I don't think Andrew will be able to take it. He looks strong but he is very emotional vulnerable!."

Andrew's mum cries

.

••• Andrew POV ¶¶•••

We are impatiently waiting for the doctor to get out of the emergency room.

My breath isn't regular, it's defective. I can't remove the image of the little boy I lost year's back. Now it's Grace and our unborn baby.

"Why does it happen to me. Why do God always make me fall in love with the wrong girl?. Either I'm being cheated on or she gots a dirty past!. Why can't I have a normal life like anyone man out there?. Get normal women, have kids and build a family!."

I lament not more crying this time but thoughtful.

A couple of hours later,

The doctor finally gets out of the emergency room.

Bending his head in dismay.

This makes us panic.

"It wasn't easy, but we did all our best...!.".

he speaks... and gasp...

"Tell us what we want to hear and stop beating around the bush!.".

they yell at him

And that's how I feel, as to yell.

"Yet, we lost her!.".

He proceeds

"How?."

I hastily snatch him from his dress with so much furore in me.

They struggles to pull me off, him.

"But the mother is fine!."

the doctor struggles to speak as I tuggers him.

Joshua pulls me back!.

"Calm down!."

He yells

I step backwards hazardous at the doctor words.

"Another child is gone."

I tell myself.

Is strange how I got attached to this unborn baby, I'm already missing her.

"Can we se the mother?."

My mum begs

"Yess, she is out of the emergency room!. Please two at a time no crowding and no noise. She is very week!. We found out that she was poisoned some. The drugs caused her an abortion!."

Doctor explains

“OMG, Jordan!.”

Grace’s mum cries. Her husband holds her in his arms.

"I think it's better you both go!."

Grace's father points at me and his wife. Urging us to go ahead.

"Okay!."

Grace's mum nods with tears in filled in her eyes.

"I can't!."

I wipe my tears and I turn to leave the hospital.

My mum follow me

"Hey, Andrew, you are stronger than this and more to that, she needs you around to comfort her. You leaving now, is like putting the blame on her for what happened!."

My mum tries to plop some sense into my skull.

Yet, I don't give a damn. I won't be able to glance at Grace without wanting to blame her in some way!. I love her but it hurts!.

"Sorry, mum!."

with that, I leave the hospital

"Andrew you will regret this!."

Mum, yells as I leave

I don't answer her.

She moves back to the others

"Can I go for Andrew?."

She pleads

"Of course!."

Grace's mum agrees

With that, the moved into her room.

While I drive to the club!.

Grace POV ¶¶

I shudder from my sleep like I had a nightmare. In which I lost my baby!.

"Where is my baby!."

I scream as soon as I wake up. I get hostile with everyone.

"Calm down!."

My mum whispers holding on, her tears.

"No, I want to see my baby!."

I scream

"You will see you your baby but you have to calm down!."

Andrew's mum tries to move closer to me.

A nurse interrupts as she enters the room with a baby in her arms.

"Oh, that's my baby!."

I get excited as I see the nurse coming towards me with the baby in her arms.

My mum and Andrew's mum don't seem excited, I don't get it. However, I don't give a damn. I have my baby with me and it's all that matters.

"A girl!."

The nurse exclaims handing over the baby to me.

"She is so cute!."

I exclaim and a photographer takes a shot of the baby and I and leaves.

"Where is Andrew?."

I joyfully ask as I cuddle my baby.

No one answer

"Weird!."

I whisper

Anyway, I don't care about him either. I concentrate on my baby which I thought I had lost.

I notice something is wrong with the baby, which gets me really queasy.

"Nurse, my baby seems not to be breathing. Why is she not crying?. Please do something about this!."

I wildly pull, shaking her dress, in fury.

The nurse doesn't react!.

"What's wrong!."

I whimper like it's abnormal.

Andrew's mum takes the baby from my arms and my mum calms me.

"Show the baby to the other and I stay with Grace!."

Andrew's mum passes the baby to my mother and my mum moves out.

The others are standing not far from my door. My mum takes the baby to them and the nurse follows her. Just for them to say goodbye!. Andrew won't see his baby.

I'm inconsolable.

"What's wrong with my baby. What have I done to deserve this!"

I groan as I realise the obvious.

Andrews mum hugs me.

"I can't tell how you feel right now, but all I can say is that you need to be strong!. I went through this and the pain is more than what it seems!."

She shares in my pains.

I pause my whimpering at her words.

"Really?."

I dread with tears still streaming from my eyes.

"Yeah, but it wasn't caused by anyone. It was natural. I was just like you!. Don't worry you will get over this!. Just be strong."

She says.
