Aminu.

A week had gone by since Zara's surgery. She was apparently still resting as I liked to call it. Saying she was comatose sounded off and tasted bitter on my tongue so I changed it. The new way of saying it gave me more peace of mind than I realized.

After the whole Jasmine incident and taking Nadir and his nanny to my house, I never left the hospital again. Louis came in everyday and stayed with us for hours but he never slept here which was understood. 

Each time I remembered Jasmine's long letter of atrocities, I cringed hard at both the thought and myself. Myself because as much as I like to overlook it, I was a fool. I trusted Patrick at a point and I also trusted Jasmine even when I was sure that I couldn't have impregnated her. 

For two years Louis had been bugging me to get a DNA test but I brushed it off as him being his usual distrustful self, and after the whole Tumini debacle, I just completely threw it out the window due to hu

    Aminu.I entered Zara's room and saw Louis sitting by her bed side. I stood at the doorway and just watched hem both. My family right there. It was always said that family isn't just those that you share blood with and with the presence of these two in my life, I believed that to be true.I walked over to them "Hey bro. Here again?" I told Louis."Of course. I'll be here everyday until she wakes up. I would have stayed here with you guys but I don't exactly have a sister to run my company for me. Plus Zara would murder me if anything happened to her precious Kaph. She loves that place too much." Louis narrated while I sat in the chair behind him.He was always a hatted fool, making jokes all the time, but now he was more mature and serious which was certainly not the Louis I knew. I however, understood the situation. The dearest person to him in the world was unconscious and no one was sure what would happen to her in the long run. The situation took its

    AminuGoosebumps overtook my entire body as it felt like the temperature of the entire hospital had gone to zero. The doctors and nurses rushed into Zara's room on my call and chased Louis and I out of there for them to do their work.We loitered around the hallway worried and pacing, waiting for the doctors to come out and tell us the verdict.My teeth chattered with nervousness and the cold that had overtaken my system.Louis was also very livid as we waited there in utter silence.My body felt like it was about to shut down, my throat was dry and my mind filled with panic as the only thing that filled it was the thought of my fiancée in that room fighting for her life at the moment.Negative thoughts flooded my mind. What if she died? What if her coma time extended because of this? What if her mind goes so far that she wouldn't come back anymore?I shouldn't have been thinking all that but the tension was just too much

    Aminu.I stood with Louis outside contemplating the situation. I had told my mother and sister to go and come back when the coast was clear because Zara was really sensitive to everything. She was complaining that the light was too bright, our voices were too loud, coupled with the fact that she didn't know who we were was very stressful and had me on edge."What are we going to do?" Louis asked exasperatedly.I rubbed my face "I don't know man. The doctor needs to explain this to us because I don't understand this. I don't want to believe that Zara has amnesia. That's.." I trailed off looking at the roof. I was getting emotional."I know.. I know." Louis said and put his hand on his chin."Let's go see the doctor. I don't care let's just hear from him first."So we went, the doctor was thankfully in his office and I barged in without knocking. I didn't exactly have the time for courtesy."You didn't explain what happened." I snapped at

    Aminu.I was nervous as I stood outside Zara's room, summoning the courage to enter. I didn't know how I would go in there without her cursing at me and acting like I was the one who shot her.Louis and Tanna had stayed with Zara for a while before leaving me to my fate. She was all alone now and it sucked. I really didn't like the fact that she was without me in there but then she didn't exactly want me with her.I tried to collect my thoughts before going in there. I didn't know what to expect but I knew I wouldn't be mean to her for any reason. She was still my Zara, memories or not and I would get her back. I did it before and I would do it again.I took a deep breath before making my way into the room. Immediately her head whipped in my direction."What are you doing here?" She asked harshly. I decided to refrain from calling her my fiancee or anything of the sort because so knew she would freak. I also resolved to just be calm and casual.

    Aminu.I woke up extra early so as to execute some plans I had before Zara woke up. I was going to surprise her today. I had already made the arrangements with the surprise company a long time ago for when she finally got out of coma which was now. Just a small celebration for her coming back to life.I had to go bring the people up into the hospital room before she woke up so I slipped out of the bed and made sure she was still asleep before I snuck off.The surprise people called me and told me they were around the corner so I went to bring them in.Slowly and steadily with a lot of excitement and a bouquet of flowers in my hand, we went up to Zara's room and I looked into the room. As I expected, she was already up but the room was still quite dark.We entered the room, she saw us but was oblivious to who we were. We switched on the light and shouted "SURPRISE".Her mouth was agape as she screamed "what? What is this?" She said smiling. T

    ZaraAll this was quite overwhelming for me.First, I was told that I had been unconscious and that before that, I was engaged to be married, I had a cousin and friends. I was shot by a psycho man who so happens to be the one to kidnap me in order to induce Stockholm. A creep!The worst part was that, I didn't remember anything but my name. Sucks!My friends were all nice, the ones I'd seen at the moment. There was Tanna, who said she was my childhood best friend. She seemed to have a thing with Louis who was apparently my cousin. Two guys named Tayo and Lanre came by and I really loved their company.The only person that I didn't really like was the man who was apparently my fiance.I just hated his very aura when we first met and I didn't know why. I didn't understand my feelings towards him. It was conflicting especially with the fact that he was so so nice to me and even when I was rude, he kept it cool and I saw the evident hurt on his

    Zara.Aminu came closer and the doctor told him what to do."Now Mr Garba you are going to help her up from the wheelchair and steady her, then slowly let go, still maintaining a brace should she fall down, got it?""Yes sir" he said."Okay let's begin"I was quite nervous about standing on my own because it definitely didn't work the last time. I also dreaded the pain that would inevitably come with it and I was in so much pain already as it was.Aminu came up to me and took my hand. I felt some sort of electricity from his touch. I frowned, staring at his arm holding me 'What was that about?' I thought. It was weird and I didn't like it. Was this that spark that people said would happen when you met your one true love?. Ha, stories."Zara, are you alright?" Aminu whispered bringing me out of my inquisitive thoughts. He probably thought I was being reluctant to do the need full. If only that were the actual case at hand and not

    Aminu. Previously... "Ma'am this is from Mr Garba" he said and gave me a card. "What's that?" Tanna asked. I opened it and smiled "aww it's a note" "Aww. Read it out" she said. So curious for gossip. I giggled. "To my Angel Wife, I remember the day we met. It was then that I knew that I wouldn't let you slip through my fingers. At first sight I knew that you were the one for me. I didn't care about anything else other than being with you from that moment. I just knew I wanted to see you happy. The love I feel for you is strong and eternal. My Queen, you are the light in my life, the air in my lungs. You give me purpose in every way and I am so happy you agreed to be with me forever. Your aura has consumed me and I want to bask in the light that you give for the rest of eternity. Today, we seal the deal and I just wanted to s

Tanna who had been silent all along tapped me pointing at an armless gown she seemed to like. "That's a really cool design." Tanna said. "Feel free to move around and choose. I'll be waiting for what you decide. You can also have this notepad to write down your thoughts." He said and gave us a notepad. We began our search. The gowns on display were all breathtakingly gorgeous. I was so shook at what Atafo could actually do with those hands of his. I Was already imagining what my wedding dress would look like. "So do you have anything in mind?" Tanna asked me. "Yeah I have an idea of what I want. I want an armless dr

I warned and he sat up, putting his hand on his chest. "Promise ma'am" he said. "Good. So what are we eating, I'm hungry." I said and took the menu. The dinner date was really fun. We had laughs and talked about everything. Also gossiped about a few of our friends. We basically dissected everything while violating table manners. But we didn't care. Once we were done with our three course meal of exquisite delicacies, as of on cue, music started to play. One of my favorite songs at the moment. Odo by Johnny Drille. "Can I have this dance ma cherie" Aminu held his hand out smiling while I laughed at something he had said earlier.

    Zara. Previously... When the police man had chained him to the table and left, Patrick started laughing. "What's funny" I said frowning. "You know, I never ever thought that I would ever see you again in my life" Patrick said, still chuckling. "Well, one last time wouldn't hurt. I used to consider you my friend." I said and folded my arms. "I used to be in love with you you know. Or should I say, infatuated." Patrick said and chuckled. It seemed as though he was finding himself amusing. "I know that" I said. I surprising was not feeling any emotions right now towards him. Everything was well and okay. He didn't disgust me the way Jasmine seemed to. "Yeah and you know I didn't intend to shoot you. I'm really sorry." He said. "I just hope you don't hate me" "I don't Patrick. Have y

    Zara Previously... The judge was rested back in his chair, but his face held shock and fear. Probably fear for knowing someone like Jasmine. Aminu who was sat beside me had become furious again and I stroked his arm to calm him which he was responding to well. The silence in the room was deafening for a few seconds before the judge finally spoke again. "Wow, officers, I don't know what you people are waiting for. Cuff her immediately." He said with venom in his voice. The policemen who were stationed in the courtroom went forward and cuf

    Zara Previously... Your honor, my client is not guilty of the allegations on him. First of all, this child is legally his son which means he had all the right to have the boy in his custody however, the way it is being narrated is not how it happened. My client went to the Plaintiff's apartment which in his magnanimity he had given her, only to realize that she had run away from the house along with all her belongings leaving just the boy, the nanny and a letter confessing all her crimes against Mr Garba here. My client having a good heart, took the boy into his home even after finding out that the boy is not his. So your honor, this whole case is a lie and shouldn't even have been a case in the first place." My lawyer said and sat down. "Objection my Lord! There is no evidence to back his claim" Jasmine's attorney said.

    Aminu. Previously... Almost a week had passed and it was finally the day that we would stand trial with the arbitrator. Aminu had pushed for it because he didn't want the stupid case to taint his brand which was the wise thing to do. The arbitrator would essentially keep everything on a low and not attract press to it. Or so I thought. I hadn't spoken to Aminu even after Tanna's intervention. Now I was ready and I was going to surprise him at the arbitrator's office. There was no way I would leave him to do this alone. I didn't tell Louis because his big mouth would tell Aminu in a heart beat. On getting to the venue for the trial, contrary to my belief, there was a swarm of press people with microphones and cameras at the doors to the building. What the hell? Who told them where it would be. I decided to hide and slip in undetected. I met a secur

    Zara. Previously... "Yeah I get it. It's very nice of her though" I said and sighed, rubbing my eyes. "I really miss Zara. And Nas has been crying, he wants to see her. I'm always scared of going home to him because he'll start hounding me with questions and crying again." I said rubbing my face in frustration thinking about how sad Nasir was that Zara wasn't there. "Did he do that when he was brought to your house in the first place. Like did he cry about Jasmine?" Louis with his nosiness asked. "Not at all. It was like he didn't know the difference. Nasir for her was always a tool to use to get what she wanted so I believe they didn't have much of a relationship with each other." I said and sipped my usual glass of whiskey. "Don't worry, she'll come around" he said and his eye twitched. That was something I learnt over the years to look out for if Louis

    Aminu. Previously... "Both you and Jasmine will rot in prison, I will make sure of that" I said, gritting my teeth. Anger rose in me and I had to fight of the urge to get my hands around his throat and kill him there and then. But then I had to allow the law take its course and Zara.. she wouldn't be happy with my line of action. "I've accepted my fate brother. I wish I did things better. I probably would get a life sentence or worse, be executed which I'll prefer because a life sentence is a fate worse than death. I have never asked you for anything before but I will do it now because this is a mutual need. Make sure Jasmine goes to jail or dies. That is my only wish." He said this time looking me in the eye. "That's easy. And for what it's worse. If you hadn't betrayed me and had told me about the fact that we were brothers from the onset, I would have accepted you with all the joy in the w
