What can be done to save my mother? I can't afford to loose her in any way” Save said while staring daggers at the doctor who in turn looked at her with eyes full of pity. “The only way is for your family to provide the billion dollars to save her so we can begin the operation immediately”. Do you have it at hand now, so we can begin the operation?” Without thinking further, she nodded her head negatively and burst into uncontrollable tears, why was her life turning into a shipwreck? She can't afford to loose her mother at her tend
‡‡‡‡AT HOMEAs Eleanor pushed and twisted the door's knob, she felt tired with all the day's trouble and immediately slumped on the nearby couch she saw.Not quite long, her father walked fragilly into the room to meet his daughter laying helplessly on the couch.He cleared his throat and this action jolted his daughter from her small slumber.She rolled her eyes at the sight of her father.“Out of everyone,why does he have to be here” She said in curiosity.“Eleanor Roseville, where were you? You were out since morning and we are in the mid evening. So you're late” He said his hands akimbo staring at her like she was a little kid.She rolled her eyes once more, she was already getting tired of her dad's pampering. It was already getting too much to handle “Father, I am not a kid anymore. I'm grown up, I'm nineteen for crying out loud. So why can't live my life peacefully without you interfering” She looked straight at his eyes as she said so.He wasn't ready to give up to his daugh
Eleanor left for home in mixed emotions, she was both happy in some ways and also sad for giving out her virginity to some random stranger she just met a few minutes ago.Not quite long, the man from the restaurant ran after her.“Young lady, Young lady, wait up, wait up” He said running after her while flagging his hand at her.Eleanor at first was confused on why the man was running after her, but when he got closer to her and she stared deeply at her, she suddenly remembered she knew him. He was the man from the restaurant “i was yelling your name from far behind, but I guess you didn't hear me. Do you still remember me?” He said in one breath as Eleanor stared blankly at him.She decided to play the novice game with him “No, I don't remember you. Can you please enlighten me on where I know you from?”The man laughed a little as he stared at the woman figure in front of him, he just felt like there was a force drawing them together. He already sighted her from afar, and when he ha
At 12:30amEleanor was very wide awake and every single word of her father rang in her ears every now and then. She also stares at her phone every now and then waiting for the call of the man. She needed him to call this very moment.She didn't even feel any ounce of tiredness through what she was thinking. Anyone who looked at her now, would think she was having mental problems.Like as if God wanted to help her, her phone buzzed loudly and she quickly glanced at it to see an unknown number. At first, she didn't want to pick up, but come to think it, it may be the man.“Hello?”She said Silently as she tried listening to the background of the caller. It seemed like the man was in a club as she could here faint music.“My boss would like to see you tomorrow to talk more about your marriage. Any questions before I hang up?”Inside Eleanor, she was very happy that she got a response, now she just have to tell him tomorrow all her challenges. Who knows, maybe he can help.The thoughts of
Her heart paced quickly as she couldn't think of anything else than to go home. Thousands of questions rushed to her mind in one go “Why would dad ask me to come home now? It's usually very unusual of him. I need to go home now!!”She hurried to where she left the man and looked at him in tears, she couldn't just control herself anymore. She burst into uncontrollably tears. Without him knowing what happened, he quickly pulled her for a warm embrace.He sighed in satisfaction inwardly. He hadn't felt such satisfaction in years of embracing a woman. But deep down in him, he felt great pity for this woman in his embrace. In him, he wished he could make her feel happy, so she could smile, but he didn't even know what happened to her after that call, talk less of how to soothe her.“Beautiful, do you mind telling me what happened?”Eleanor felt great anger and decided to use it on him “No, I don't know what happened, okay? I was just informed to come home”The man didn't know what to say
Eleanor held the pen with trembling hands, her conscience pricked her to back off while she can, but No, she can't. She needed the money for her family.After moments of deep thinking, she eventually signed the paper and handed it over to the man next to her.The weird looking man stared at the paper then to her, “You do know this contract lasts for two years, right?”Without thinking twice she quickly nodded her head as beads of sweat formed around her oval shaped face.“Good, I'll call you for further details. Good day” He said and walked out firmly without letting her say a word.Eleanor looked at the figure that was retreating as it slowly disappeared away from her sight. She still couldn't fathom how she met herself in all this mess.She sighed in distress as she sat on a chair at the restaurant.Not quite long, a waitress who looked like she was probably in her early twenties walked up to her smiling.“Good morning Ma'am, would you like to order something, we have varieties of m
