" But I want the business to grow even more, a friend told me that if I can get people from the government, I will be making so much money". He said, and Goodluck had to stand up."People always think, only the government, have the money and the connection, they are just controllers, they don't have anything, there are some private individuals, that are richer than the government". Goodluck said and Maxwell nodded."You are very correct my friend, but you know why people look at the government that way, because, when you have power, you sure have almost everything you need". Maxwell said, and Amanda rolled her eyes as she was already getting bored with the story.Now that her brother have joined them, she was left out, she decided to change the topic."Whose turn is it to stay with mum today? Her question seem to surprise everyone, just out of the blues, she was asking a question she already knows the answer."Husband and wife will stay together".Amanda liked the fact that they were
"But is he really into cosmetics now? Her father asked, as they stood up to go back into the hospital, and she stood transfixed, not knowing what to answer, but she recovered herself immediately and smiled. " I really don't know what Goodluck is doing now, but he sure looks and acts too wealthy, I guess he is doing so many things now, trying to keep body and soul together.Her father nodded suspiciously still looking at her, they both walked back in to the hospital room, with her father to say goodbye to her mother, she noticed Goodluck outside already talking with a man in his early thirties, she also saw her brother standing behind. He came to her immediately he noticed she was alone, and told her he would be going back with Goodluck that they had some work to do together, also he told her Goodluck's driver would take her home, and he would visit the next day, she need not worry about being alone for too long. Amanda didn't like the sound of staying alone at that house, and Goodluck
As Amanda watch them walk into her house, she really couldn't believe what was happening or what suddenly changed, she wasn't even noticed, Tracy was helping Dave walk in well with one hand on his waist.She was feeling really bad now, with the flask still in hand, she almost let the flask down, not like she expected less, as a matter of fact she had expected to see something like this after her last show at the hospital, but what she didn't expect was Dave bring her home to stay with her, it was obvious, she had come to stay with them to spite her, she wasn't the only one, there was another girl whom Amanda didn't know, she was walking in with them with a suitcase.Amanda thought of rushing to them, and causing them to wait, and say something since her scheming mother inlaw wasn't around, but she decided against it, it wasn't like she was some innocent wife that was badly treated, she wasn't some lovely wife who was totally faithful, and fair to her husband, she really didn't need to
Amanda needed to leave the house as soon as possible, but where would she go to in such a state, she couldn't visit her mother in such state, she needed to relax and think before making her move. She was glad she had left the room, it felt like she was going to die, but her freedom was cut short when her thought was interrupted by Tracy's voice."Hello little devil, you don't look so devilish after that blow do you? You suddenly look like a saint, I think evil people like you, need talks like this often, so that you will repent on the spot.Amanda could somehow agree with her Yes that was so true, Dave had given her a blow she wasn't so sure to recover from, it was something she was clearly going to die from, she could feel her heart shattered into pieces, and if she doesn't leave this house anytime soon, she was sure to die, she could feel the pressure on her, her pregnancy was four months now, and she hadn't even started any medication, treatment of any kind. With her medical report
Even though she could sense and feel her environment, she knew she was loosing her consciousness.Amanda's vision continued to fade as she heard the voice of people screaming.They were screaming and saying so many things at the same time, that all her ears could get was noise.Was she dead?, she couldn't tell, and she wasn't sure, she just knew she felt some strong hands pull her out of the car, and she could hear hurried footsteps, few minutes later she felt her back relax on something soft, and some how comforting, then her hearing began to fade also, and just as she couldn't open her eyes, she couldn't hear anything anymore, she was leaving her conscious mind into the unconscious. Somehow she was scared, that she was going to die, with this mystery, but she didn't mind anymore, her life had been a joke, and she could never claim to have enjoyed a year of complete happiness since she came to be.She started seeing people she thought were already dead, she confirmed that she was ind
When the call was ended, Maxwell looked at his phone again, he was so scared to open his mouth and say anything in front of everyone. He had known something was wrong, since he didn't hear from her, but now it was confirmed, he looked around him, and swallowed hard.Maxwell wasn't sure what to think or say at that time, he didn't want to scream in front of his mother who was looking too weak already, and was constantly having fever, he just looked at Goodluck and motioned for him to follow him leaving his mother who noticed the sudden change in him, but wasn't sure what it was so she thought it must have something to do with work.Maxwell had left his business to attend to her, and he had been working from home, he would even bring work to the hospital, he was always on the phone with his partners so that he could be well informed about what was happening.Maxwell didn't know how to tell his friend about the news, but his friend already suspected that the call had something to do wit
Maxwell and Dave didn't know where the question was coming from or what they should make of her question, they were not even in the mood to answer or to think about it. Though Goodluck was angry. Why should she be asking of him, when he didn't even care to know how she was feeling.He tried to imagine himself in Dave's position, he would not be able to breath, if he had heard that Amanda was involved in an accident, but he had been comfortable to even stay back at home.Maxwell was even confused at her question because he was sure it was Dave, that called him, and he sounded fine to him, so he was sure he wasn't the other person with her when the accident happened or the person she crashed with.Goodluck thought her question came as a result that she had been with Dave, maybe they were on their way to the hospital after he was discharged because he had eyes on the Brown's family and was watching their every move, and had been informed that Dave was discharged, but what he didn't know
Amanda looked up at him shocked and asked the same question in a different way."so why am I crying? Did you not hear me, I said, my husband, came home with his ex, and she threw my things out of my own room, can you just imagine her throwing my clothes, underwear and personal belongings to the guest room. Is that not enough to cry? I was humiliated, insulted, that wasn't really what hurt the most, the fact that Dave could mock my mother's recent condition only means that things have gone really bad""I never said it wasn't enough reason to cry, but you need not to, you have me, and Maxwell to lean on, you know I would never allow anything bad happen to you, but you crying for Dave's attitude is hurting me, it seems as if we are not doing enough, we are here for you, we have left everything to be here with you, and aunty, so you need not cry for a looser like Dave who is too blind to know your worth". He moved close to her, and held her hand.Please I don't ever want to see you cryin
