EPISODE 62; EXCERPT (B)
“Stop!” She wailed at the cab driver immediately they came before a huge hospital and the driver at the voice of her order matched the brake pedal abruptly making a rough screeching sound of the tires echo all over the arena. She opened the door quickly, paid the cab driver, and scurried off heading towards the entrance of the hospital.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“I want you to take this thing in my womb out cause I don’t need it” the lady who was standing before a doctor after refusing his offer to sit muttered pointing at her belly with a deep scowl on her face.
The handsome blue-eyed doctor shook his head and ruffled his hair while thumping his right-hand fingers on the table before him causing a little thumbing sound to blaze all over his office.
“You ain’t saying anything Michael!” She barked and slammed her hand on the table. “Are you fucking deaf and also dumb now?”
Michael as she called him sighed, ruffled his hair once more, and gazed into her eyes.
“You’ve been a good friend to me, Pamela. We’ve been friends right from childhood and my conscience won’t let me do anything bad to you. W…,”
“You’re not doing anything bad to me, Michael. I think I’ve grown up to the extent of knowing what I want and this is what I want so just fucking do my request and leave all these long talks” she muttered interrupting him.
Michael shook his head and held her hands.
“We don’t do what you’re asking me to do in this hospital Pamela and you already know that.”
“You own this hospital Michael. You give the damn rules. So why can’t you do it for me? I want you to get this bastard thing off me. Don’t you get it?” Urgh!”
“I’m sorry but I can’t. I don’t want to know how you got pregnant since you refused to tell me but all I got to say to you is that pregnancy is a blessing to mankind and you should cherish, love, and care for what is in your womb until you have it and even after you have it.”
Violet yanked away her hands from his hold and stood up her eyes glaring daggers at him.
“I came to you cause I trust you so damn much Michael. I came to you cause I know how much you love and cherish me. I came to you cause we’ve been friends for so long and I don’t feel shame if you see my nakedness anymore…,” She paused, wiped the beads of sweat on her forehead, breathed in and out, and stared back at him after she cleared her throat. “I came to you cause you are so good at what you do. I came to you cause you alone can do this and I’ll be so relaxed without having any worries. But I guess I thought wrong. I guess I missed my way. Bye Michael and I don’t ever wanna see you anywhere close to me. Our friendship and everything is off!”
Michael tried to hold her so that he could make her see reasons with him but she jerked away from him and stomped out.
On her way out she bumped into Xavier who was walking in with a young beautiful lady by his side. Both had their hands entwined that all the image screamed out was ‘couple.’
Xavier pretended not to know her and she not being in the mood for such pretended not to know him too. She said sorry to him cause she disrupted his hold on the other lady and without waiting for his reply left.
The lady standing beside Xavier watched the act keenly and unconsciously developed a feeling in her that both must know each other.
Not being one to hide her feelings she questioned him if he knew her from anywhere but Xavier chuckled and denied knowing her. He even swore by his late grandma’s grave that it was just his first time seeing her.
The lady although still having a doubt within her accepted his reply cause of how he was quick to swear and that ended the matter.
Meanwhile, Xavier kept thinking of the possible things that could have brought the one-night stand girl as his mind calls her to the hospital.
Could it be she’s sick? Or perhaps she came for counseling.
But what if she’s pregnant? I remember pouring in her several times. Fuck!
That thought alone made a chill run down his spine and he shuddered making the lady beside him stare at him with raised brows.
“Are you sure you’re ok baby?” The lady asked staring closely at him.
There was no way in hell he was gonna tell her his thoughts after denying to ever know Violet so he gave her just a nod but all through that day what he did was think and think.
The lady shrugged off at his reply but in her mind swore that she will get to find out who that girl is to her baby cause she can never share him with anyone.
Violet on her part went around every hospital in Crested Butte seeking one that will take away the bastard thing as she calls it from her womb but none accepted. All told her that it’s prohibited and they can’t indulge in such.
She had already given up and was on her way home when she sighted a little hospital.
On a normal basis, she will never enter such a local hospital but having a pressing need at hand she ordered the cab driver to stop.
“But this is not where you initially said you will be stopping miss” the cab driver argued staring at her through the front mirror without stopping as she ordered him to.
“I said stop this damn car you asshole!” She wailed on top of her voice and the driver having no other option did as she said.
She got down, glared at him, and threw his cash at him.
“Take that money and get the hell out of here asshole!” She shrieked and stomped into the hospital hoping that she would get it done this time around.
