CHAPTER 24

…stella..

A few hours pass as we wait for the test results, am sitting on the couch with Daisy’s head resting on my lap while Benji is sitting on the bed beside Zoey and holding her hand,

Over the past few hours, Zoey barely wakes up and when she does, its only for a few mintues.

I cant help feeling that my life is cursed, everyone I have ever loved left me, first it was Ben, my parents and now Zoey, no there is no way I will lose my baby.

The door to the ward room opens dragging me out of my thoughts,

Mario walks in with a plastic bag,

“am sorry I couldn’t make it on time, the road was blocked because of the rain” he explains,

“its fine. You should have waited for the rain to stop” I say. There was a big storm which was even dangerous for him to be driving

“are the results in yet?” he asks, before I can answer him, the doctor walks into the room, Benji and I stand up immediately

    Chapter 27…STELLA…Mrs Edwards is surprisingly kind and comforting, I always thought she hated me, that she knew what I was doing the night Ben was involved in an accident and blamed me for it. Before that happened, she was like a second mother to me, I grow up by her side and was used to her. It feels good to see her acting like this around me,“thank you for coming” I say, she kisses my hair with a small smile. Benji’s phone suddenly rings and he excuses himself“when your parents told me they disowned you because you were pregnant with another man’s child, I hated you because my son loved you, I don’t know how things happened between you and Benji but am glad you kept this little girl, I want her to get better so that I can get to know her more, you know how I love kids especially my grand-kids” she says making us both chuckle,“Zoey has never had a grandmother, am sure this will make her happy” I reply remembering the way she smiled when she was happy.

I want to marry you”, to say I am speechless is an understatement, is Benji proposing to me right now?, I feel like screaming and cursing him but my mouth feels too dry. This is deep and delusional,“i…I will just head to bed and see you tomorro

I had cut off Selina the moment she began dating Benji. The fact that they broke up doesn’t mean I want her back in my friends group“why is she here?” I ask facing Selina,“stop being a pussy, Benji and I are over, not that it concerns you anyway” she says with a roll of her eyes.“whats happening with you?” Ruby asks“I want to kill Stella” I speak knowing fully well I mean it,“calm down girl!” Maggie says,“at this point, I can help you get rid of her” Selina says drinking from her glass cup“whats gotten you so angry?” Ruby questions.I pour myself a full glass and drink it in one go before turning to the ladies,“Benji proposed marria
