AFTER SIX HOURS
Kim opened her eyes slowly blinking severally to have a clearer view of where she was.
She finally got a clearer view and she turned her head to see Sara sitting next to her and staring at her.
“Hi Kim,” Sara said smiling widely and she responded smiling faintly.
“Hi, Ma'am Sara.” She said weakly.
“How do you feel? Are you alright? I can get a doctor for you if necessary,” she said and Kim shook her head.
“Oh, you don’t have to. It is not that bad.” Kim responded and Sara nodded smiling.
“Thank you so much.” She said and Kim looked at her again.
“What for?” She asked.
“For doing this for my son.” She said and Kim shook her head.
“You don’t have to be, I did it for myself. I would never forgive myself if Landon dies so early because of my silly mistake, which I never said sorry for.” She said
The nurse came in to check up on Kimberly, she has been awake doing nothing. She just stared at the ceiling of the hospital. She kept thinking about things, in fact, everything in her life.“Hi, Miss.” The nurse said jolting Kim out of her thoughts. She turned her head to look at the nurse and she accompanied her look with a smile.“Hi, ma'am.” She responded and the nurse gave her a comforting smile.“I am here to make sure you are okay, how are you feeling?” she asked running a quick check on Kim.“I feel normal. Please how is Landon? Is he okay now?” She asked and the nurse smiled.“He is in the operating room Kim, you don’t have to worry.” She said and Kim smiled widely.“Thank you so much.” She said and the nurse looked at her. She knew she wasn’t in place to ask or discuss personal things with a patient, but she was forced to ask Kim.“Do yo
Rachael got into Kimberly's ward and saw her laying on the bed, her eyes were shut.“Kimberly?” She called and Kim opened her eyes in shock immediately.“Mom?” she called turning to look at Racheal. Rachael walked closer and Kimberly just stared at her as she did.“Hey, I heard you sold your kidney.” She said nonchalantly and Kim sighed.“I did sell my kidney mom,” Kim responded and Racheal nodded.“oh yes, you didn’t sell, you gave out! Why on Earth would you do that?” She asked and Kim breathed out.“Do what? Donate a kidney?” she asked.“For free!” she said in frustration and Kim looked at her unbelievably.“Are you questioning me because of the money not because of my health?” Kim asked.“Look here Kim, before you can donate a kidney to someone, it means the other kidney is fine and you can survive using it, ma
AFTER TWO WEEKSLandon tucked his shirt and pulled his blazer from his hanger. He placed it on his bed and reached for his tie. He knotted it in less than two minutes and then he was done.He pulled the blazer to himself and was about to go out when Kimberly walked in.“You are going already? The food is almost done.” Kim stated and Landon sighed walking closer to her and planting a kiss on her lips.“Kim I am deadly late.” He said and she shook her head sadly.“you are yet to use your medication, you are almost done with it why skip it?” She asked and Landon bowed his head.“Fine. I will take little and then I use the drugs.” He said and she nodded smiling.“Good of you. Now come join me at the dining table.” She said holding his hand and pulling him to the living room.He smiled widely looking at her as she walked.
Kimberly was drifting into sleep already when she heard the doorbell ring, she stood up reluctantly from the bed and walked to the door in the living room.She opened the door and met her dad at the doorpost. She was surprised to see him.“Dad.” She called smiling widely.“Hey Baby.” He said pulling her into a big hug.“I missed you, you promised to visit the other day.” She said as she welcomed him in. She locked the door and they both walked to the couch.They sat facing each other and then her father replied.“Yes, about that. I didn’t want to come when I know Landon would be around.” He said and Kim creased her brows.“Why?” she asked and he sighed.“he is ignorant of what you did for him, and if I see him I would be forced to say something concerning it.” He said and Kim breathed out.“Father we talked about this.” She said and
“Hi,” Daniel said trying to stay calm and charming as possible.“Hi,” Ruby responded smiling in return.“Can I have few minutes of your time? I just want us to talk.” He said and Ruby nodded.“Cant we talk over Lunch instead? I am still working.” She said smiling and Dan nodded rapidly.“Yes, that is true. My bad. Anytime you want, I would be here.” He said and she smiled.“You don’t have to be here, I would call you once I am free.” She said and Dan felt butterflies in his tummy.“What time are you going on the break? I would come and pick you up. You shouldn’t be the one doing the calling.” He said and Ruby smiled.“noon, I should be done by then.” She said and he nodded chuckling.“Great, I am free at the time. See you soon. Or?” he asked and she nodded.“See you soon.” She replied and he
Landon couldn’t concentrate anymore, he wanted to get home and find out what was going on so badly. He needed to know why Kim was on drugs.The door of his office opened and Sara walked in smiling widely.“Hey.” She said happily and immediately she saw his countenance her mood changed instantly and she became so worried.“Hi, Mom.” He said with his head still bowed.“What's wrong? You don’t look happy.” She said sitting in front of him.“I just heard disturbing news, and I can’t get my mind off it.” He muttered and Sara creased her brows.“Disturbing news? About who? What?” She further inquires.“Kimberly Mother, it’s Kim.” He said raising his head to look at her and she could see the sadness on his face. It was so evident that he wasn’t himself.“What did you hear son?” Sara asked fearfully. She wondered what he he
“Kim!” Landon yelled kicking the door open and the door fell to the ground.“Kim.” He called running to where she laid on the floor. Tears rolled down his eyes as he saw the state she was in. She wasn’t looking fine at all, and how come did he not notice she was going through some health issues.“Kimberly what is going on?” he asked in a shaky voice, sitting next to where she laid and pulling her up. He made her rest her head in his arms and she held his hand trying to regain her strength.“Landon I am good.” She said and he shook his head.“No Kimberly, you are not. What is going on, tell me what is going on?” he said and she placed her hand on his face.“No Landon, I am okay. You don’t have to worry.” She said and Landon lifted her and helped her lay on the bed.“You can’t tell me that Kimberly.” He said and walked to where she left the dr
“Are you hungry?” Landon mumbled and Kim smiled raising her head to look at him.“Kind of. Thought you were asleep, didn’t want to disturb you.” She said and he cleaned his eyes.“No, you didn’t, but your grumbling stomach did.” He said and Kim felt kind of embarrassed.“I am sorry.” She said and he shook his head.“Not at all Kim, you don’t have to be. I am hungry too, the only difference is my stomach isn’t making noises.” He said and they both chuckled.“Okay then, wait here. I would prepare something for us.” She said trying to get out of Landon's arms but he held her back to himself.“I can’t let you do that. I will do the cooking as from today.” He said and her eyes widened.“C'mon Landon, you don’t have to. I am fine, trust me.” She said and he nodded.“I trust you, but that doesn&rsqu
