“Oh my God, honey, you’re awake,” Kiandra exclaimed in relief. “Call the doctor,” she said to Lucas who quickly rushed to go get the doctor.“What happened, mummy?” Zendaya asked and Kiandra pulled her in for a hug. “You fell unconscious. I was so worried for you ,” Kiandra said to her daughter and she let her go so she could observe her. “How do you feel? Does anywhere hurt?” she asked.“My body hurts,” Zendaya answered and this made Kiandra panic. Luckily, Lucas entered with the doctor the next moment and Zendaya upon seeing a doctor, clung to her mother.“Mummy,” she cried and buried her face in her mother’s arms.“Zendaya, the doctor has to check you or he won’t be able to help you,” Kiandra told Zendaya. “Please,” she appealed to her as she didn’t want to force her daughter, especially with what the little had been through and what she was going through.Thankfully, Zendaya seemed to understand that her mother was drained and she let go of Kiandra who immediately took a step bac
Kiandra was dazed by the fact that Lucas disconnected the call. He was surely up to something. That was definitely a person’s scream she had heard in the background. ‘Wait, did that mean he wasn’t joking all those times when he said he wanted to kill someone?’ she asked her.Samantha’s call came in and it distracted her. She immediately answered the call. “I’m so sorry, I didn’t call. Something important came up and apparently, I had to travel,” her friend apologized.Kiandra, who knew the nature of her friend’s job which involved a lot of traveling, wasn’t offended in the slightest. “It’s okay, I’m not mad,” she told her friend. “Zendaya finally regained consciousness.”“Oh my God, that’s good to hear,” Samantha exhaled in relief. “Give her the phone, I want to talk to her,” she said and Kiandra handed over the phone to Zendaya.“Here, Aunty Sammy wants to speak with you,” she told her daughter. While Zendaya was busy with Samantha, there was a knock on the door and the doctors cam
“Here is the footage of what happened two minutes before and five minutes after you sent that message,” Liam said and he gave Kiandra his tablet to see for herself.Kiandra collected the tablet and she played the footage Liam had just spoken about.It was a video of Lucas in his office and sitting in the chair across from him was Daira. Even though the CCTV was above them, she could see that Lucas wasn't happy to see Daira there. She was the one doing the talking about how her family sent her there to sort out some issues.Lucas' phone suddenly rang distracting him from Daira. He immediately answered the call and he rose up on his feet ten minutes later. "I'll be there soon," he said and he dropped his phone on the table so he could pack a few documents."Lucas, what about the meeting we're having," Daira complained bitterly."We'll reschedule that to some other time," Lucas replied. "The guards will see you out," he said and left the room.Daira also rose up to leave when she hear
After leaving Daira’s house, the two headed back to the hospital and straight to the room where Zendaya was. “Oh my God, I’m so glad you’re back,” Samantha exhaled as she rushed over to where Kiandra was.“What happened?” Kiandra asked when she saw the worried look on her friend's face.“The results of the report came back. None of us are matches,” Samantha started and Kiandra felt her world starting to crumble. “Lucas however is a perfect match to Zendaya,” she informed them.“Really?" This time, it was Liam who spoke and Samantha nodded in affirmation. “He was here when the doctor announced the results and he has been admitted so the doctors can prepare him for the operation which is happening tomorrow night.”Kiandra sighed in relief and it felt as though a huge burden had been lifted up her chest upon hearing that a match had been finally found and that match happened to be Lucas.“The doctors wanted you to be here before taking Zendaya out to continue the conditioning process as
Kiandra waited for some time as she wanted to make sure Lucas had fallen asleep before leaving the room.After making sure he was indeed asleep, she pulled the sheets over him and left the room to go see her daughter who was also asleep."Finally you're back, I thought you had forgotten about me," Samantha exhaled as she shifted so Kiandra could see on the couch."You don't have work tomorrow?" Kiandra asked as she took her seat next to her friend."I took two days off," Samantha answered. "Now tell me what's going on. I feel so left out," she said to Kiandra."All these years I spent hating and thinking Lucas was the one responsible for what happened to Zendaya and that had been a lie. It was actually Daira who responded," Kiandra told Samantha."That day when I texted him, he was in his office and Daira came to visit him. He got a call for something important and left the office with Daira in it. However, he left his phone and that was when my message entered.""That bitch!" Samanth
There were guards stationed outside his room and when they saw her, one of the guards reached out and opened the door for Kiandra.She entered and saw him fast asleep on the bed. Seeing him sleeping made her smile to herself as he always had trouble sleeping.She walked up to the bed and sat beside him. “No matter how many thank you I say, it won’t be enough for what you’ve done for me and our daughter,” she whispered to him. She then reached out and gently stroked his hair.“Now both of you get better quickly so I can tell you both the truth,” Kiandra urged the sleeping Lucas. She didn’t say anything after that, instead, she stared at him. “If I say I love you, will you love me back?” she asked him.She was about to say more when the lights suddenly went off making her wonder what was happening.****“Hey, will you stand guard for a while? I want to take a quick nap,” one of the guards who had been stationed outside Lucas’ room asked his partner. “Sure, I’ll wake you up in two hours
When Lucas reappeared he was dressed. His eyes fell on Zendaya and he made his way over to where Liam was standing. "What did the doctors say about the operation?" He asked Liam."That it was a success and that she will be observed for the next few weeks," Liam answered."Hmm," Lucas mumbled and he cast one last look at Zendaya. He then turned his attention to his sister. "Cancel whatever plan you have for today and stay with the little girl. A woman named Samantha may come to see her, if she does, let her in. Apart from her and the doctors, no one else should get close to the girl," he instructed and Belle nodded."New guards will soon arrive. Till then, hold down the fort." And with that, Lucas turned and left the room.“Go and make sure he doesn’t go overboard,” Belle urged Liam who turned and followed Lucas who was heading straight for the elevator.“Where are we going?” Liam asked.“To see the darn head of this hospital,” Lucas answered and he pressed the button to take him to t
“Put your hands where I can see them,” one of the police officers said to her, his and his partner's gun still pointed at her.Kiandra panicked when she realized what was going on in their minds. “I swear I didn’t kill him. He was dead when I woke up,” she cried out.“You’ll explain at the station,” the same officer retorted. “Ma’am don’t make this difficult for us, put your hands where I can see them,” he asked her again and Kiandra did as he told her to do.The second officer walked up to Kiandra and handcuffed her. “You have the right to remain silent, anything and everything you say, can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford one, one will be provided by the state,” the officer read her rights to her and they led her out of the house.When they got out of the house, she saw that a crowd had gathered around the house and they were all staring at her judgmentally.“What the hell is going on here?” She heard a familiar
