"Well, we both meeting would be inevitable and I would like to do it as soon as possible" I respond instead"The Prime Gardens, meet me there in twenty minutes" Before I could reply, the line went dead, leaving me angrier. Prime Gardens is a high-end restaurant, they didn't take walk-ins, and one had to make reservations months before! I couldn't just waltz in there like that, dressed the way I currently was, I'm sure I'd be turned back at the door. Heading back to my mother's room, I send a quick text to my bestieNancy: Bestie!! SOS!!! Bestie: Whatsup? How's your mum!? Before long my phone starts to ring, glancing at the call ID, I smile, Rayna couldn't wait for my reply. "Hey, girl! You good?" she cheerfully called out over the phone. I find myself nodding in response, realising she's not here to see I chuckle lightly and reply with a "Yes" "So what's the emergency about? Thank
Nancy's POV"What just happened!?" I ask, as I stare in shock at Dr Williams, who just grins in mischief. "I believe it means you've been contracted to be the surrogate for Mr.Lark"Was he kidding me right now? Was Dr Williams being serious!? "I know that and I heard that!" I nearly shout as I stare at him"It's the other thing he said I'm asking about. I'm pretty sure you heard it too." "Oh that""Excuse me!?" I exclaim in utter disbelief "Did you just say oh that?"Dr Williams just chuckles and shakes his head"Miss Levy, I believe I have done my part of securing you the job. Whatever else that comes with it I'm unaware of, and will advise you to take it up with Mr. Lark""I didn't sign up for this though!" I exclaim in an exasperated manner while slouching on the chair"A fiance, when I haven't even had my first boyfriend or my first kiss. Oh God!' placing my hands to my face, I mumble, while mumbling, I hear Dr. Williams chuckle again, and it further aggravates me. Staring at
Nancy's POV“Stupid arrogant prick!” I mumble to myself as I walk down the hallway to Dr. Williams's office, he had sent a message for me to come to his office. Despite my growing hope and anticipation, I couldn’t help but silently curse the handsome stranger of earlier and also be embarrassed at myself. To think that after my months of being in and out here, I could make the fatal mistake of entering the male bathroom. I was stupefied, blame it on my crying episode earlier. Not to dampen my mood, I hasten as I get to his office, raising my fist I knock on the door“Come in” he replies from inside, I turn the knob and proceed inside“Good afternoon Doctor, Nurse Alice said you wanted to see me.”“Yes yes Miss Levy, please have a seat” I turned to take my seat, and I finally notice a man already seated, just as I face him to acknowledge and greet him“You!!” We both said in unison “Oh I see you already know each other, makes introductions easier” Dr Williams observed without minding
Nancy’s POVIt’s been two days, and I haven’t heard nor seen Dr Williams, I can’t help but worry as I have less than five days to the deadline. Sitting on the armchair beside my mother’s hospital bed, I stare at her, she’s hooked to a few machines with wires. I touch and caress her face delicately, the sickness has taken a toll on her beautiful skin, just as my phone rings, I remove my hands from her face to pick it up without looking at the Id “Miss Levy! I’ve been trying to reach you for days now to no avail. Your rent has been due for over 3 months and you’ve yet to say or do anything. I’d advise you to come get yours and your mother’s miserly things as they litter the streets. I’ve changed my locks, good riddance to bad luck tenants like you lots!” not waiting for my response, he cuts the call. I wipe at the tears in my eyes, they’ve become my only companion and solace, it dawns on me now that I have nowhere to go, when my mother gets better, I wonder how we’d do it. Pain in my
“If Mr Jeff Lark does not have a child in the next five years, every share of the company will be transferred to Mr Micheal Lark.” Barr Ivan had stated while looking at the will and also at me directly, I had blinked in confusion, not understanding what he meant, well I did understand but chose to not believe the words he had uttered, nor believe it was written by my very own father. “What do you mean?” I asked, needing an explanation as to this madness“Mr Jeff, your father wants you to have a family of your own and he believes having a child of yours will make you more responsible. So, he declared that without a child of yours in the next five years, all your shares in the company will be transferred to your uncle.”I could feel my uncle’s grim look turning into a sneaky smile. Father knew how I feel about women after Rachael, so I have no idea why he chose to do this to me. He knew how much I just wanted to be on my own.Staring angrily, alarmingly as well as confusingly at the la
I stare at him in disgust, as my mind travel down the events of that fateful day four years ago; the unexpected clause that my father had added to his will, which could almost be likened to him piercing my heart with a daggerFour Years Ago'Vultures!'That was all I saw in those who came on that day under the pretence of celebrating my dead father. They hadn't been there because they had wanted to celebrate my father’s life, they had come to make connections. Everyone had known that a great percentage of society will be at the funeral of the late C.E.O of Carrie’s Group of company. My father named the company after my mother because of the love they have for each other, now that my father had gone to join my mother in the afterlife, I was certain that my uncle, a.k.a The Vulture only came to the funeral for the reading of his will.I had watched with silent observation as my uncle stood close to my father’s lawyer whispering things in his ears as the pastor preached long about my f
The silence in the room is palpable as we both state at each other, I cross my fingers underneath the desk in anticipation and worryDr William is quiet but his gaze on me tells me that he is trying to read into my head. He’s trying to know why I am trying to be a surrogate. It’s not that hard to figure out. I need money.“I want to help someone achieve their dream.”He smiles, “Do you know what it takes to be a surrogate? You are very young, Miss Levy. Are you sure you want to do this?”I nod eagerly and without any hesitation, “I can do anything. I need the money. Dr William, you know I need the money for my mother’s sake, this is my last resort. Please, help me.”He is quiet. “Nancy…” This is the first time he’s addressing me as Nancy and not Miss Levy. “… I take you as a daughter, and I know how much you easily get attached to people. I have seen you cry when some of the patients you are attached to are being released. Do you think after carrying a child for nine months, you c
Nancy’s POV“Please, I am going to bring part of the bill soon, can you let my mother keep staying here.” I am holding the doctor’s coat now. I know it’s not appropriate but he isn’t giving me any chance and this is the only way I can communicate with him without him leaving my presence. I am not trying to hold the tears anymore, it is flowing out easily as I hold him. My mother is the only family I have and if she is evicted from the hospital now her chance of recovery is very low. “I already told you before, Miss. It’s not my fault. The hospital needs money to keep running, and we can’t admit patients if they can’t afford to pay their bills.” He tries to remove my fingers from his coat, but I only hold him more, even as tears gather in my eyes. People are now staring at us, probably wondering why I am harassing the innocent doctor but I don’t care about it, nor people's view of me. I only care about my mother.“I will pay up. I just need you to give me more time, so I can gather
