Chapter two

As we move quietly people have started coming out for their business, I
don’t think Gaga will still
be trailing us because she can’t just walk with guns in the open unless she
want to get arrested,
——————————

as we move I saw many police can driving pass us, I know where they are
headed, I pray they
arrest Tina but i know it’s impossible but no harm in praying.
The driver stop us at a nice hospital and immediately I brought Edna out
the nurses rush out
and help me to carry her, I didn’t want to follow her I just stand there as
I watch my love being
wheeled away, I was startled when the driver called me to settle him.
“Oh am sorry” I said as I put my hand inside my pocket and gave him money,
he took it and
drive away while I cross over to the other lane, I saw a place where they
are selling drinks more
like a bar, I went there and bought soft drink, I saw there facing the
hospital waiting to see if
Tina girls will show.
I remain there for more than one hour and even bought more drinks just to
make sure I don’t get
thrown out, after three hours and everywhere is now very busy I stood up
and cross to the
hospital.
Chapter three
“Hello am looking for the lady that was brought in earlier this morning” I
said to one of the nurse.
“Are you her relative?” The nurse ask.
“No am her friend I brought her in” I said.
“Oh I see, you brought her in and you just left like that? How do you
expect us to treat her when
we don’t know who will pay us?” She ask.
“I don’t know I thought you people are train to save life?” I fired.
“Mr man I hope you know this a private specialist hospital, not a
government owned” she said.
“Please am sorry, I will be the one to pay I just rush back to get
something” I said.
“Oh well she said something about being a minister daughter and when we
check she was right
so we quickly administer treatment, I think she’s stable now and sleeping”
the nurse added.
“Oh thank God, where is she can I see her?”
“Yes, I will take you to her” she said.
“Okay”.
I follow her from behind as we pass many nurse and patient on the passage
way, she stop at
one room and open it and there I saw my Edna sleeping like a baby with drip
flowing through
her vein.
“Don’t wake her up” the nurse said as she walk away.
I walk gently to her and pull a sit, I sat close to her watching her breath
like a baby, she’s so
beautiful I know many Muslim girls are beautiful but her own is out of this
word, I still wonder
why shes still here in Nigeria when her father is a minister, the day I ask
her she said she will tell
the story another day, am praying for her to wake up so that she will tell
me the story.
As I continue gazing at her I just can’t help myself so I took her hand and
started rubbing it, she
breath and then open her eye, she turn and saw me smiling, she look around
and ask.
“Where are we?”
——————————

“In a hospital” I said.
“Oh, (she recall) you just drop me yesterday and disappear huh?” She said.
“Am sorry my love, I had to stand watch to make sure we are safe” I said.
“So are we safe?”
