All Chapters of A Mission To Happily Ever After : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"There are over five women due tomorrow and we are short of supplies, what are we going to do? We never budgeted for this much,"Sara said as she walked into Ruby's office, Sara is the head nurse among the nurses that volunteered and joined Ruby on this mission."We make use of what we have Sara, we can do it, I already called the hospital and they will send supplies as soon as they can but till then we are on our own,"Ruby replied while checking the pulse of the patient on the bed, Sara stood by watching her."Have you eaten today?"She asked the patient who shook her head and said no."Ma'am you have to eat, for you and the baby, it not good that you starve yourself,"She explained."It's not that I don't want to eat, but there are hungry children here, I can't eat while I watch children go hungry,"She replied, she was the first patient Ruby has had since she came here that had a good command of English, her other patients mostly speak in the island language, which she didn't unde

"We can't leave until we are sure these women will be okay, you guys sent us here knowing how this island is, and now you want us to leave knowing there are people here especially women and children who need us?"Ruby asked dropping her glasses and biting down on her lips to prevent her from saying the words that bubble in her head."Then you are in your own, we are only going to pay for your expenses back, you return now or face whatever it is that comes with your decision to stay, the hospital is officially taking its hands off this, you have to return by the next ferry ride, tell us before you board it so that we can send a plane, have a nice day doctor,"The director said and ended the call before she could say more, so they are just going to abandon them? Just like that? How will they expect her and her team to leave knowing there are people here who need them?""This is bad, this is so bad,"She said out loud, her whole body ache from staying up all through the night, one of the

Ruby sat tiredly in her office, this was the first time she was sitting in over seven hours, one of her expectant mothers had gone into labor earlier than anticipated and she didn't have an easy birth which hadn't been easy for Ruby not with the shortage of supplies and staffs' it was one of the most difficult birth she has had in a while she took a deep breath calming her tired muscles' she knew she couldn't relax yet as the new mom had lost a lot of blood there wasn't any blood left in the blood bank so she hoped she doesn't go into a crisis.The hospital still hasn't changed their mind, in fact, they were no longer answering her cars, it was really up to her and her colleagues to help the women here, she didn't have much but she would do her best and the others swore to do the same, she believed in teamwork and know they will achieve much if they continue like this, everyone has been helpful even the women in the island were helping, so far they were doing okay but she knew things

Ruby looked up to see the handsome father of the kid, walking into her office, he kept his words and was back earlier than he had earlier said, his baby was still sleeping."I am back doc,"He said with a smile, he was handsome, if she still dated, she would have looked his way, he was everything her type, his broad shoulders that were well defined with the sleeves he wore which were now rolled up, his short milliary styled hair, adding to his alluring appearance, she had the urge to pass her hands through his hair and see if it felt soft or if it was all hard like his muscles, not that she knew much about those."Doc?"He called as she realized she was supposed to respond to his call."Yeah, thank goodness you are trustworthy, hope you could do what you went for?""No, not really,"He answered, he looked disappointed like things didn't go as he wanted, she wanted. To hug him and tell him that it will be just fine, then she cautioned herself, she didn't know the dude and she should be

When Ruby left, Liam decided to make the call, he didn't know anyone who could get him hospital materials, so he had no choice than to call his mom, if he called any of his sisters, they would tell his parents and his mom will be mad that he didn't call her instead, so calling her was his best bet even though he risked getting an ear full."Hey, Mom,"Liam greeted when his mom picked up."Wait, you really called me first? This is not a dream?"His mom asked, he rolled his eyes at her dramatic response, it made it seem like he doesn't just up and call her, even though that was truly the case, he didn't like being reminded of it."Mom, come on,""What is it that you want? Because there has to be a reason why you called,"His mom said, she was right but that didn't mean he was going to agree with her."Mom, come on, why would a son need a reason to call his beloved mother?""Yeah, except you are the son involved, now spill, I will do it,""Wow, you are such a sweetheart Mrs. Wellington,"
