The ding dong of the bell made the woman to Stop what she was doing and open the door. She was surprised to see her daughter by the door and behind her was her fiancé. The man she saw on the television a few days ago.“Mum” Aurora didn’t know whether to fake a smile or keep a stoic face, after all the lady in front of her didn’t fully acknowledge her.“You didn’t tell us you were coming”“I told her not to” Malcolm chipped in, he used that opportunity to study the woman in front of him for a while. She looked well dressed and wasn’t dressed like she was in lack of money.“Come in” she opened the door wider and the two of them entered. There were expensive sofas in the living room and the walls were covered with the family pictures but he didn’t see anyone that had his fiancée in it. Did they hate her that much?“Where is dad?” Aurora asked her mum after sitting down, shs felt like a stranger in her own home and part of her wished she was not there.“He went to town for something and
It has already been a week since the whole incident, Malcolm helped her to get over it a little bit. Even if she was still feeling the pain, she didn’t want to get him worried unnecessarily. Because of that, she buried the thoughts of her family deep at the back of her head. To her, they didn’t exist anymore. Even Ryan was mad when he found out and he vowed to protect her from all of them, he was still her brother nonetheless. He even told her not to have any single thing to do with that family anymore, they treated her like shit.His exact words were, “you deserve better sis and that’s why God sent Malcolm into your life, the way they treated you shows how daft humanity can be and it’s good you cut all ties with them. They don’t deserve you”That was like a week ago, right now she was seated in her office and working on a few papers. Her wedding preparations were soon going to kickstart and she would be so choked.“Aura” a familiar voice filtered into her ears and she looked up to s
As the huge doors flung open, her father gave her a reassuring smile before leading her down the aisle. This was it, she was finally getting married to the man of her dreams. As Aura walked down the aisle, her hand in her father’s hand, she couldn’t help but look around the whole church. It was filled up and she felt happy that a lot of people came to share in her joy.Then her eyes rested on the man standing at the foot of the altar, he had a huge smile on his face and he looked damn gorgeous. She was getting married to the most gorgeous man in the world and that was a big flex.“Make sure you take care of my daughter” her dad whispered to Malcom who gently took her hands in his.“I promise” the smile on his face was not going away, even Aurora had that bright smile on her lips.“May we begin” the officiating priest announced and the two of them turned to him.“Brethren, we are gathered here today to witness the joining in holy matrimony between Malcolm Hart and Aurora Williams. God
" Young master, you should eat your food so you can have your medications" the chief maid pleaded as she sat on the chair next to him but the seven year old lad would hear nothing of it. He was angry and none of them could quench his anger, not after what his papa had done." I won't eat neither will I take my medications" he retorted and jumped down from the chair before making his way out of the room, leaving the maids sighing to themselves. They knew if the master came back, they would definitely be scolded as to why Liam, for that was the boy's name, didn't eat.He hadn't taken up to ten steps into the garden when he noticed his papa's car drive into the spacious garage and he saw him alight with his suit and briefcase in his hands. As usual he wanted to run and go to his papa but once he remembered what he did, his eyes darkened and he turned his back on him before venturing deep into the garden." Welcome boss" the security at the door greeted as Malcolm walked past him and the
Nurse Aurora yawned lightly as she entered the dressing room and slumped on one of the vacant chairs. It has been one of a hectic day and she was glad it was already over so that means she could go home to her comfy bed and sleep.Her mind wandered off to the little boy she met at the park earlier and she unknowingly smiled,he was too cute." What are you smiling about?" Danny, her co-nurse asked as she also sat on the chair opposite Aurora. They were both from the neurology department and work was as tedious as ever." Nothing Danny, just met a little boy at the park today" she answered with all smiles." You are smiling because you met a little boy?it's like this hospital has not given you enough work already" Danny sighed as she walked up to her locker to get changed, " I actually think we might grow old and die in this hospital Aurora because we can't even live our lives how we want. I mean we are just twenty seven but we have seen things even my ancestors didn't see".Aurora la
It was already past nine when Malcolm came back to the hospital, he had to stop by the mall to get a few things for Liam and ended up getting late. He was already apprehensive that no one was with him but when he got near the door, he could hear little giggles and he saw the nurse was still there and Liam was smiling sweetly at her.Standing there for close to three minutes, he finally pushed the door open and entered."Papa!!" Liam beamed excitedly at him as his lips curved up into a much bigger smile." How are you feeling now champ? He asked ruffling his son's hair lovingly." Miss Aurora has been really good to me, you should tell her thank you"." No need Liam" Aurora quickly chipped in, " since your papa is here now I will get going now".The little boy's face turned gloomy as soon as she said she wanted to leave." Must you go?I thought you would spend the night with me".She smiled at how cute he sounded but she couldn't possibly spend the night here when his dad keeps glarin
Aurora rushed into the dressing room with a sorry look on her face while the head nurse kept glaring at her." Do you even care about the reputation of this hospital Aurora?" She asked in an authoritative voice and Aurora could only look at her apologetically, it wasn't her fault she came few minutes late. The traffic from her house was bad." I am really sorry ma'am, the traffic was really bad" she replied biting her lips." Hmmm, Liam has been asking about you all morning and won't even take his medication, we also tried calling you but to no avail"." I will check on him now" she answered quickly as she slipped into her uniform and dashed out of the room.She had a silent prayer on her lips as she walked towards Liam's room, she knew his father would not spare her even at the slightest. " Holy virgin please save me" she muttered to herself quickly making the sign of the cross, she held the handle and pushed the door open and immediately two pairs of eyes flew to her direction."Un
The two were engrossed in each other when her phone began to ring and it was her mother calling, sighing heavily she quickly picked it up." Hello mum" came her uninterested voice, she wasn't too happy talking to her." You said you were going to send the money last week so what happened Aurora?" Her mother asked angrily from the other end," you shouldn't have promised if you knew you were just lying" she added and Aurora felt like smashing her phone to the floor, she was the eldest daughter of her family and she still had three other siblings to take care of including her parents. They weren't making things easier for her in any way and she was living like a pauper because of them, shouldn't they show a little appreciation?" You will get the money next week mum and you should also ask the others to get some work done mum, I am Also trying my best" she couldn't hold in her frustration any longer,until when will she live like this?." What happened, unique eyes?" Liam asked, seeing th
