Mrs Chukwu has Leukemia. This type of cancer when the tissue in the bone marrow mutates and cannot function well again. And you know she has a rare type of leukemia.The doctor was trying hard to show her experience with explanation. She even went ahead, to bring in files, with so many terminologies, that Goodluck felt his eyes would ache him, if he tries to look into them.He had to shove her off immediately, before he goes further to explain."I know that much doc, but I want to give her a better chance, I know you are doing well, but I need you to give concrete detail for me so I can give it to my father, he may recommend you, you never can tell". Goodluck added, using his charm in the doctor, maybe that would make her work faster.Hearing what he just said, the doctor couldn't contain her Joy, she decided to show more and explain more about her research to Goodluck who was not very interested in her many talks." She has AML which is an acronym for Acute myelogenous Leukemia, it
Maxwell was indeed happy that there was hope for his mother, he looked at Goodluck who was busy stroking his sister's hair and wiping her tears."Please don't cry, I really didn't mean to just walk out like that, and I was not angry, I just left to go see the doctor, you know I cannot be angry with you for so long". Goodluck says, but Maxwell was not paying attention, he was just too overwhelmed with joy that he started saying."I love you, I love you man, I love you so much" He could hug him, if not that Goodluck prefers to be with his sister instead.Goodluck was taken aback by his words, he wanted to hear those words, but not from him, he wanted to hear those words from the woman infront of him.Though he knows, he was sure, she loves him and she has shown it to him many times but hearing it wouldn't be bad at all. Amanda watched as her brother brightened up, as he went through all the papers and putting them carefully back in place, she then turned to the man who was making every
As Amanda relaxed to pay attention to what Goodluck had planned for the next day which she obviously wasn't included in ad she was not yet discharged, she saw her brother walk back in with her father who looked really grateful for the news."Does it mean my wife will not die in few months like the doctor here said, he said her cells are destroyed by the growth of abnormal cells"Goodluck looked up at him and didn't want to disappoint him, but he was sure with the right treatment she would stay longer, she had been in this particular level for a while and he was obviously not seeing what the doctors here were doing, unlike when he was working hand in hand with his father he had seen many people come in and go back looking happy and fulfilled."Uncle, she won't die, she just needs my father and his team to work on her, and my father have promised to handle her case personally, so there is hope"By the time he was through talking, all their faces was beaming with smile, they sure looked
Amanda had called Dave immediately she saw her family leave the hospital, she wanted to be sure if her brother and lover were right, they had sounded so sure that Dave didn't need her and the way he responded to her call only proved what they said, she thought about calling them to wait for her at the airport but then again she told herself it wasn't over till it was over.Dave was surprised to hear from Amanda, she was worried about his arm when she called, she wanted to know how he was doing while she hadn't even bothered to ask about her.Her card would have meant alot to him if it was in a different situation but with the present situation he just couldn't find a reason to want to be nice to her or show her love, she was acting all nice because she knows she was the one that had wronged him."Amanda is coming tomorrow morning"He had told Tracy who didn't seem trouble about the news one bit, she had Dave wrapped around her fingers, he was so hungry for her that they haven't done a
Amanda went back to the living room and sat down to munch on her cheese, she was hungry and was not really bothered by what she saw, she had expected to see something that would annoy her especially since Dave didn't sound happy to know she was on her way.She switched on the TV and relaxed to watch some musicals, a love song was playing by Adele, she loved the ariste so much she didn't know when she started singing the song 'hello'She had heard the song many times, it was even her ring tone bit whenever she hears it play it always feels like she was hearing it for the first time, there was so much passion in her voice as she cry out apologising.Dave and Tracy were through and they shamelessly walked in naked, she was really surprised to see how shamelessly Dave was acting but she pretended not to be moved at all, she took one look at them and continued eating what she was eating, she was showing now, one could tell that she was pregnant, but she was strong, she could tell, her firs
Before Amanda could fully settle in, Goodluck called, she wasn't surprised he was calling, his assistant must have told him what going on and he just wanted to know if she was okay."Hey! She said trying to sound normal."Hey! He replied sensing she was trying to pretend but her voice gave her away so he went straight to asking."Are you okay?"Yes I guess, I am fine, he doesn't want me in his life, you were right, I should have listened to you."Don't blame yourself, you did the right thing."How is my mum?"She is fine, my Dad wants to meet you, he won't let me rest, when will you be able to come here?"I wish I come right away, I don't feel alright staying here""Really? How about the next flight to Abuja, it leaves in three hours, is it enough time for you to get ready?"It's more than enough""Then it's settled, I will send you the details, I will be waiting for you at the terminal""No problems, see you soon"Goodluck was really happy, he was glad Dave didn't try to keep Amanda
They all sat on the dinning table while they were served Rice and chicken, it was as though they read her mind, she was starving, it was when the food arrived that she remembered that she hadn't eaten any other thing than the cheese she had collected from Dave's house, calling it Dave's house in her mind only made her think she was cutting herself off from that family, she had always referred to the house as her house not his house, she wondered what Dave was doing at the moment, maybe he was back from his outing with Tracy and they had started again from where they had stopped, they were really having fun while she was restricting herself from exploring.After the meal, desert was served, she was truely satisfied, she had initially planned not to eat so much because she wanted to make a good first impression, she didn't want Goodluck's father to see her as a glutton but the food was so tasty she forgot about the plan, she ate to her heart content and even asked for more, the desert
His answer made her smile, she was happy indeed, that the man Goodluck speaks so highly of, was also inlove with him."I believe you, and he speaks highly of you, he has been through a lot, please just be his father, he has no one, which is why I hate myself for not being there for him, I wish I did what is expected of me back then, maybe things would have turned out differently for me". She said, feeling dejected.Mr Stone wasn't really expecting her to be the one asking questions and dishing orders, but he liked the fact that she was talking, he needed to only read her to know what she truely felt for his son.The atmosphere became Intense as silence eluded them, she thought of changing the topic to lighten up the mood, she was good at making people laugh, but tonight wasn't one of such nights, she wanted to get to know this man."So what have you found out about my mother's condition?"Well there is an already established report that I got from the last doctor who treated her, but
