HOSPITAL
GISELLA'S WARDSasha, the nurse Natasha had plotted out Gisel's death with, quietly crept into her ward to execute the deeds. Her eyes nervously lurked around as she neared her bed." Oh, God, please forgive me for what i'm about to do." She cried and she took her stand beside Gisel's bed. "I know it's bad but I have to do this." She took out the syringe and pressed it to her right hand, about to inject her. Just then, Gisel's hand moved. She flinched, gazing up at Gisel's face only to notice her weakly twitter her eyes open." Oh, goodness– she's awake" She mumbled to herself. " I've got to be fast about this before someone else walks in." Sasha lamented in her thoughts." Desmond?" Gisel wearily voice intruded. Sasha fidgeted with a sheepish grin." Relax dear, he'll be here in no time. Let me finish checking you, first." She instinctively took her hand for the injection but was suddenly interrupted by the swang of the door whiANTONIO'S MANSIONLizzy trod through the hall towards Gina's room when she heard the telephone rang from the hall. She instinctively paused in her steps as she gazed down at it for awhile, with a contemplating gaze." Should I ask Gina to attend to it since she's been incharge of that or I should just attend to it.. ? ", she thought to herself. “Yeah, I think it's right I attend to it since she'd been, kind of acting wired today.”She sighed and sauntered over towards it with a fixed gaze." Hello, this is the Antonio's Mansion. How may I help you?", she answered."This is Doctor Franklin from Family Health Hospital” A voice echoed from the other end of the phone which made got her edged on.“Is everything, alright, sir?–How is she doing” She instinctively, interrupted.“I just called to inform you that she's out of coma at the moment. You can come over to the hospital tomorrow so we can perform her final check up.” He added. Lizzy screamed with excitement."
HOSPITALGisella sat upright on the bed with her back relaxed and her gaze fixed in her novel she had. Her thoughts instinctively drifted off as the thought of Desmond hit her." I can't put Desmond at risk any longer." She mumbled with a furrowed brow. " I'm not able to protect myself and how am I to protect him?–I got to do something very fast about this but what?'Her thought hinted. "Think Gisel–think!" She cried, her eyes darted."Yes! " she exclaimed, her face lightened up. "I got this– I know what to do. Is better to stay away from him. That's the only way I can be sure of his saftey. And Dad?" She queried in her thoughts. "I hope I'm not too late"She stuttered. Just then, a voice interrupted from the door. " Hello, Miss Gisel!– I can see you're already awake."She instinctively looked up at the door and her lips curved in a faint smile." Yes, doctor."She answered." Good, I'm glad you're fine now." He stated with a smile. " I've alrea
THE ANTONIO'S MANSIONAfter about an hour drive, Natasha pulled over at the garage. She sauntered down and trod into the house without any interest of Gisel nor Gina. She left them behind in the car. Gina sighed and instinctively glanced up at Gisel who sat next to her with her hands pressed on the window of the car as she stared out through the glass. Her gaze was fixed on the house with tears in her eyes.Gina stared at her for a while; her heart felt heavy, watching her. She sighed.“Gisel, dear” She called and she slowly turned back at her, facing her in the process. Gina forced a smile as their eyes met. “Come on, dear–Let me help you. We're here now.” Gisel weakly tilted her head." Thanks, Aunty." She answered with a blank gaze. Gina hurried down and rushed to her side of the car. She swiftly opened the door and helped her down. Gisel stood in front of the door for a while as she stared at the door. Gina glanced at the door as well and back at her. She
A WEEK LATERNatasha strolled through the corridor with a thoughtful gaze as her mind woundered off in thought."I'm almost done with Gina." She smirked. “Now, all i need is a very good strategic way to get to Desmond–Think, Nat, think.", she muttered. Just then, a thought clicked in. Her lips curved in a satisfactory grin and her eyes sparkled with joy." I'm such a genius.” She scoffed. “ I'll call him over for dinner after school,then I'll take over the rest– Yes!, such a sharp brain I've got up there.”. She chuckled and sauntered over to her room. GRAVE YARDGisella stood by her father's grave. Her eyes fixed on it as sorrow erupted her chest. The tears she fought back, slowly drifted down her chin. She slowly crenched down as she dropped the flowers in her hands, brushing her hands over the grave." Hi, daddy” She giggled as she sniffed back her tears, a pained smiled dazzled on her face. “Your baby is here to see you, dad” She sobbed and chuc
HOSPITALGisella and Lizzy arrived at the hospital with Gina. Gisella quickly rushed into the hospital as she desperately howled for help." Help us, please– someone is dying!" She cried. Some nurses hurriedly approached her with a stretcher."Come,where is the patient?" The queried" Please follow–" She fidgeted with rapid breath as she sped ahead of them. Lizzy sat on the floor with Gina on her laps when the nurses approached with Gisella." Save her, please..", Lizzy cried with a brooding gaze on noticing them. They swiftly laid Gina on the stretcher and raced her through the corridors to the emergency ward. Lizzy and Gisella paced after them." Please stay here." a nurse uttered as they entered into the ward. They nervously nodded while the door went shut. They shuffled around with a worried gaze. Gisella drew closer to a chair at the corner of the ward and wearily fainted into it. She let out a faint sigh as she gazed down. Just then, a voice called beside her
SCHOOLLoretta dashed off after Desmond as he angrily sped off." Desmond?–Deamond!, please wait for me” She shouted but he just kept going without gazing back at her.“ Just let me be, Lore” He howled. “ I'm really not in the mood for your troubles, please”. Loretta realized her efforts were just not working as planned. She instinctively paused in her pace, her nose pinched and her brow furrowed.“ I really need to get his attention else Bianca and Paola will definitely laugh at me for a failed plan” She thought to herself. “Oh, gosh!– what should I do now?”, she cried, her frustration evident on her face. Suddenly, her lips curved in a bright smile as a thought clicked in. She chuckled.“You'll surely go on this date tonight, Desmond ” She whispered with a chuckle. Desmond was about to board the bus when he heard Loretta scream in pain. He swiftly turned only to find her groaning on the floor in pain. He panicked." Lore?– Loretta!” He shouted as he sped
NATASHA'S ROOM" How dare him!” She roared, thumping the vast to the floor. Her flashed with fury. “How dare him decide not to come–Desmond,you'll regret your decision. I will make you regret!!”Natasha exclaimed, throwing things around,furiously." Oh, I know the person behind all this.” She sneered. “ Gisella ” She chortled. “ You're trying to meddle in my business again, Huh?” She chuckled.“ Alright,we'll see how far you'll go with this..." She angrily dashed out of the room towards Gisella's room.Gisella laid on her bed, crying herself out when the door suddenly slammed opened. She jolted, adjusting herself on the bed. " What do you want again, Natasha? ", she cried. Natasha instinctively, chuced." Oh, i see ” She tilted her head, her lips curved in a half smle. “ You even had the gust to ask what I want.” Natasha laughed. “Very funny, Gisela–” She stated but Gisela wasn't in for her drama. With indifference, she stuttered."If you don't
TWO DAYS LATERSCHOOLDesmond sat in class, completely lost in his thoughts. It's been two days after Gisella's discharge from the hospital but never had she called or texted. She had neither attended class as well and this got him worried and nervous. He tried calling but she never answered his calls or returned any of his texts either. Desmond became so frustrated that he didn't know what else to do." It's better I visit her at home after class– I really need to find out what's going on with her” He thought to himself. A sudden voice instinctively drew his attention." Hey, Desmond, here you are–” She scoffed. “I've been searching everywhere for you” a feminine voice announced. He deftly turned to the direction of the voice, thinking it was Gisel but his face instinctively went numb on seeing who it was.“Hey, It's you– why are you looking for me? Need anything? ” He asked as he stared up at her. She sneered.“ What's with you?– Why that face and the loads of questi
A MONTH LATERGisella and Agnes fully recovered and were discharged home. Gisel returned back to her studies and handling of her father's company, being herself without fear or intimidation with the help of Mr. George, Antonio's secretary.She became very brave, confident, bold– full of herself. She no longer allowed the words and behavior of others to pull her down.She became a role model to a lot of young ladies going through low self-esteem and excelled in everything she did.Loretta finally got out of coma and was later placed on a therapy to help her overcome the experience she went through in Bello's hands.Few weeks later, she confessed her relationship with Bello and how she planned to eliminate Gisella with the help of him.Ciara and Ben on the other hand, were so disappointed in their daughter after hearing her confession." How could you do this, Lore? – Is that how we trained you?" Ciara had exclaimed in tears." Your mother and I worked en
Bello strolled towards Loretta, chuckling with the gun pointing at her head. She cried and crawled back, finding means to escape the ruthless beast in front of her." Please, spare my life""Huh? – Spare your life, you said?" He smirked amidst chuckle. " Do you think I'm so dumb to let you off the hook so you can expose me? Huh!! Never, bitch, not even in your dreams " He roared, kneeling beside her with the gun over her skull." Please " She pleaded in tears." Just say your last prayers, honey" He shouted. *********Paola, Bianca and Loretta's parents, Mrs. Ciara and Mr. Ben sped towards the location shown on the GPS in their vehicle." Drive a little faster, Ben" Ciara cried in devastation." I am, honey– Just pray we're not so late. I've already informed the police and I'm sure they're already on their way. They should even be there by now " Replied Ben w
ON THE ROADLoretta drove along the road, looking all distressed on noticing a white cab which followed keenly behind her; keeping a close watch on her. She instinctively turned her gaze to the seat beside her as she reached for her phone. Loretta anxiously surfed through and dialed Paola's line, staring through the side mirror as she balanced her gaze between the road ahead and the mirror." Hey, Lore, what's up with you ?" Paola's voice echoed from the other end of the phone." Fine, I guess " She answered absent mindedly, still gazing at the car behind her through the mirror, wondering." Hey, girl, is everything okay? You seem so down and absent minded– Come on, tell me, what's it?" Her question spontaneously drew her full attention on her." Huh? – oh, yeah, umm, are you home? I need to talk to you " She answered." Yeah, I'm home but can you tell me what's going on now? I'm a little worried" Paola insisted but she instinctively pull a blunt excuse
Antonio sighed and stood up from the floor, turning back to Gisella, Desmond and Lizzy. Gisella stared at her father with teary eyes which just burst out of joy– Her lips slightly twisted and she raced to embrace him; thorn between tears and chuckle. Desmond and Lizzy stared at her as she buried herself into his arms.Antonio hugged her, comforting, "It's okay, honey. Everything is finally over. " He slowly withdrew her from his embrace and curbed her cheeks with his hands; a faint smile dazzled on his face. " I'm so sorry for not listening to you, dear. I'm really sorry for everything, baby"Silent tears dropped down his eyes which Gisel instinctively dried it up with the back of her hand, embracing him in a warm hug, a faint smile spontaneously formed on her face." It's okay, dad– I've already forgiven you for everything and I'm so sorry for not saving you" She sobbed. " Forgive me dad, forgive me for returning so late from the hospital " The tears she tried to hol
THE ANTONIO' S MANSION RECAP" Get out of here, I'll handle this." Said Gisella, turning her gaze back on Natasha as she monitored her every step but Desmond stubbornly insisted." No, Gisel, we can't leave you here all alone with this evil woman. Lizzy can go with her while I stay with you."" No, you can't be here.....Leave now....", Gisella yelled.Natasha laughed, " Aww, such a touching scene....but I've got a bad news for you, honey. No one is living here alive...", she responded, approaching with dark eyes.Lizzy and Desmond trembled. Gisella shaded them and began to pray. **************Suddenly, a heavy wind blew across the room, lifting and sending things flying in the air with Agnes still lying unconscious on the floor . A thick smoke hung in the air like a blanket despite the heavy breeze. Gisella, Desmond and Lizzy surveyed around wit
THE ANTONIO'S MANSIONNatasha got to where Agnes laid unconscious and crouch beside her and she gently brushed her hand through her hair– Her lips curved in a mischievous smile." Poor thing, I didn't want to do this, Aggie but you left me no option. Curiosity, they say kills the cat and for now, I think is time for you to go home, honey" She faintly chuckled. "Fare thee well and send my regards to those over there..." She smirked.She rose to her full height and gazed down at her with dark eyes. Gisella, Desmond and Lizzy arrived and pulled over in front of the gate. They hurriedly got down and sped towards the door."Agnes.....!! Aggie !!! ", Lizzy cried as they approached the door.Gisella banged the door but there was no response or sign of anyone approaching from inside. She tried to open it again but suddenly found out it was locked." Oh, God.....it's locked.....", she cried." What?" Desmond exclaimed, nervous. " So what are we going to do now?– Don't yo
Desmond drew her from his bosom and held her hands, wiping her tears. Gisella stared at his face with a faint smile."Enough with the tears, Gisella– Come on, save the rest for future." He joked. "Now,let's go; this calls for a celebration. Don't worry, the bill is on me." He uttered with a smile. Gisella nodded, her gloomy look instinctively replaced with smiles and she hugged him." I'm so lucky to have you beside me, Desmond– Thank you for choosing me" She whispered underneath her breath. Lizzy who silently stared at them with smiles, instinctively let out a tactful cough."Huh...huh...huh..." She cleared her throat, drawing back their attention." Snap out of it, Love birds–Don't forget I'm still here." She teased with a chuckle and their lips swiftly curved with a sheepish smile as they withdrew from each other, feeling embarrassed."Sorry, Aunty." They both exuded and she chuckled."No worries, dear– Shall we go now?"" Sure, let's get out of here an
RECAP The trailer was very close now. The kid stood in the middle of the road, just staring at both vehicles in shock. Lizzy, Desmond and Gisella cried in fear, screaming for a miracle." Oh, my God....oh my God..... Oh no... "The car approached head on with speed. **************Suddenly, a shadow flashed in front of their car and it veered off the road. The trailer passed with great speed without stopping and Gisella's car immediately came to a halt some meters away along the road. It was a quite street with bushes along the road. It's hardly you find people walking along the street.Gisella, Desmond and Lizzy sat in the car, panting breathless with shock spread over their faces." What was that?" Gisella stammered which brought Lizzy sweat soaked gaze on her." What was what, Gisel ? Didn't you see what happened?– We nearly had an accident." She cried." No, Aunty, i was not talking about that." She swallowed a lump of
Desmond had been standing at the junction for the past 45minutes now but still no sign of Gisella anywhere. He gazed worriedly at the roads leading to the junction he stood, expectantly, depressed." What's keeping her? Is every alright?" He mumbled with a furrowed brow and as of on an impulse, he stuttered. " Let me call and find out what's happening?" He drew out his phone and dialed her line but it couldn't get through. He sighed with his fixed gaze, nervously on the screen as he paced around.peep....peep.....peep.....a sound from behind drew his attention. He swiftly turned to find out who it was. It was the sound of Gisella's horn; She instinctively beckoned him in. He gave a broad smile and hopped onto the car." What kept you so long, Gisella?" He immediately asked after settling in but then, he swiftly brushed it off. "Just forget it– Let's get going before the meeting starts." He assumed, turning to Lizzy who all along, stared from the back seat."Goo
