Previously...Radike.I sat there waiting for Matthew to come out of the lab and give us the verdict. I stole glance at Kola while at it. My ex-fling. I was trying to avoiding him and it looked like he was trying to avoid me as well that was until he locked eyes with me. Knowing Kola he was probably dumbfounded about something with his facial expression.I looked away immediately when he started walking towards me. "Just great.." I muttered. I didn't want him anywhere near me. Not after he almost got me fired. If it wasn't for Ama who's life was on the line and Femi his brother who I always thought the worst of, I would be out of a job. "Hi Didi." He said. He used the name he always called be when we were sleeping together. The sound of that name pulled at my heartstrings but I ignored it.I looked up. "What is it?" I asked. I acted pissed even though I really wasn't. I wanted to be pissed though. I wanted to be pissed at him but I couldn't be. So I put on an act."Oh don't be so col
Previously…Radike.He was trying to convince me to give up helping my friend and I almost believed him. What he didn't know was that Ama had done so much for me too. She always went out of her way to help me even to her own detriment. We were more than friends now, we were sisters. There was no way I was letting her die."Radike you need to hear this.." someone called. I looked at the door way to see Tunde. Matthew was probably out."Is Matthew out yet?" I said walking towards him."Yeah. Just come in." He said and I did so, following behind him."What's up" I said when I got in. Femi, Kola and Matthew were in a group, muttering about something.Femi looked at me. His eyes looked tired and disappointed. My heart sank. I knew what happened in that instant. Kola's face held no expression. Matthew on the other hand looked tired and devastated."It wasn't a match was it?" I asked.Matthew shook his head and looked at the ground."Fuck" Femi suddenly yelled making me shudder."It's okay.
Previously…Femi.I didn't feel like Kola got what he really deserved with the punch that I gave him. I should have given him more. He dared to jeopardize my girlfriend's life for some silly fling he had. I didn't care if he had feelings for her because he didn't also care about AMA's well being. If he was worried about Radike surviving the surgery then what about Ama. Ama was literally going to have both her kidneys removed and another one placed there. Did he even think for a second that it was probably Ama who was at more risk of not surviving the surgery? As opposed to someone who would just have one of their kidneys taken out and then be stitched up again.Insensitive and insane behavior.While I was thinking, my phone started buzzing. It was my mom. I didn't expect her to be calling me at this time. It was late."Hey mom." I answered."My baby how are you. I came to your house today and I didn't see you. I called Kola and he said you were at the hospital? He didn't tell me why t
Previously....Femi."Sir you may need to wait outside." A nurse said. I didn't say anything. I just walked outside and sat on the bare floor waiting for the verdict. It was taking forever. I did something I hadn't done in years. I had even forgotten how to do it. I prayed. I prayed to whatever was in the universe. God, the clouds, the sun, lightening. Anything to save her."God, or, whatever is out there in the universe. I know I've been a horrible person in the world. I'm sorry. Forgive me. Ama, I love her. I know you know that I love her. She does not deserve this. She doesn't deserve the pain she's feeling and she does not deserve to die. Please save her. She is the only good thing in my life. She is the person that makes me strive to be better. Isn't that what you would want? For me to be better? Please don't use her to punish me for my sins. I'm here before you to say I am sorry for what I've done in the past. She doesn't deserve to pay for it. Please, save her. I'm begging you
Previously…Ama."Fems?" I said. I needed him to come closer. He did come closer and took my hand in his rapidly "Hey babe" he said. He looked sad. He seemed stunned to see me awake but that was all I could decipher. I decided to ask him the questions I had."What is this... I mean I know I'm in a hospital but why am I here and why do I feel so much pain..?" I asked him. I needed to know because even though I probably looked calm. I was freaking out on the inside. I didn't want to alarm him and with the way he was handling this, he obviously didn't want to alarm me too.I tried to sit up but the searing pain held me back down. I exclaimed in pain and held my side,"Easy babe, easy" Femi said and helped me relax on the bed. I waited until the pain subsided before I spoke again."So what's happening? What am I doing here?" I asked again."Babe. All that matter is that you are awake now. I will brief you in the morning. You need to get some sleep okay. I know you're exhausted." He said.
Previously…Femi."Yeah, yeah she is" I said. I was quite exhausted so I was very sure that I wasn't showing any emotion."Okay. Okay I'll wait then. Meanwhile Radike already went to check her kidney out. I came with her." He said. "Oh okay that's good. Let's just hope for the best then." I said.I stood up and turned to Ama. "I'm going to go and try to get some food for us. Ama must be starving. Those tubal foods are disgusting. I just didn't want to leave Ama alone but since you're here I'll rush to the restaurant and buy her some food" I said. Matthew nodded and sat down."You want anything?" I asked on my way out."No I'm alright. I ate before coming. Radike made sure of that." He said. I walked towards the door before Matthew stopped me "Femi""Yes?" I said and turned back to face him."Thank you for really looking after my sister. You're a real one." He said.I smiled "well, I'm glad you see that now."He smiled back at me and without a word, I left the room.I was about leavi
Previously...Ama.I got into my room being pushed by a nurse while sitting in a wheelchair and saw my brother and Tola my friend from the other office holding flowers."Hey Tee." I said grinning. I missed Tola so much. He probably was the one who replaced me in the office as my brother replaced him because there was no other person to fill his spot. It was so good to see him."Hey babe. Look at you. You're still pretty." He said sarcastically and we shared a hug. The nurse helped me into the bed and left the room."So these are for you from our boss. Mr Shawn has been really worried since he heard and sent me to pick these up for you." Tola said.I took the flowers from him and smelt them. They smelt extraordinarily wonderful. "These smell so good. Thank you. Besides who even told you guys that I was here?" "Tunde told Shawn and Shawn told me. They said it was kidney failure?" He said. Worry now washing over his face."Yeah. They don't know if a donor can be found. My brother isn't
Previously...Ama."Matthew..." I said in a warning tone.He sighed "I think you should ask Femi."I frowned. I was getting pissed. I had suspected that they were hiding something but now I was darn sure. "What do you mean by that and where is Femi Anyways?" "He went to get you some food." My brother answered."Okay so, start talking" I ordered him. Something was not right."About what? I don't know anything. The Doctor tells Femi everything." Matthew said, still not meeting my eyes."We both know that's a blatant lie. Matthew do you think this is a fucking joke?" I snapped in annoyance "My life is literally hanging on by a thread. I have two bad kidneys and to crown it all the people who I love most are hiding things about my own health from me." I said and he gave me a side glare. "Yes I know that you guys re hiding something okay. The explanation was too vague to go unnoticed. Now tell me what it is!" Matthew sighed and stayed silent for a few seconds before finally speaking agai
