“What do you mean I’m not pregnant?” Georgia yelled at the doctor
“But the result said you ain’t pregnant” The doctor said in self defence
“then you have to carry out the test again.. I have to be pregnant” Georgia shouted and sl@pped the table
“Miss Legato this is a hospital and if you ain’t convinced with the result, then you should try another hospital”
Georgia glared at the doctor then collected the result and stormed out.
She walked out of the hospital and ran into Zachary in the premises.
“Georgia?!”
“Zac?!”
“What are you doing here?”
“I c@m£ to see a doctor.. Do I owe you an explanation for that?”
Zachary shook his head “no”
“what about you? What are you doing here?”
“To see a doctor too” Zachary replied and walked out on her. Georgia gazed at him then huffed loudly and walked off.
______________________________________
Zachary walked into Amberle’s ward and walked to her be-d. She was lying on the be-d with her eyes wi-de open. When she saw Zachary coming, a smile broke from herl-ips and she sat up.
“Dear Amberle” he hailed and she smiled broadly
“You finally c@m£. I felt abandoned” Amberle drawled
“Abandoned? How?” Zachary asked and sat on the be-d
“No one has come to see me ever since I woke up.. Not even Terry”
“Terry hasn’t come to see you?”
Amberle shook her head “he hasn’t”
Zachary heaved a sigh “I’m really sorry.. Maybe he’s busy with something. Terry wouldn’t just abandon you”
“Or maybe he doesn’t want to see me again”
“H-huh?”
“The doctor told me” Amberle blurted out “that I’m pregnant and Goldsax..
He’s probably the father”
“Amberle?!”
“You know.. That has always been my greatest fear Zac, and it’s happening now” Amberle broke down in tears “but it’s not my fault.. Terry shouldn’t just leave”
“Its also ha-rd for Terry to accept. He didn’t just abandon you, he just can’t take the pain”
“What am I going to do now? I have no where to do from here and I can’t return to Goldsax”
Zachary yanked her forward and pu-ll-ed her into his arms “it’s alright, you’re not going back to Goldsax– I’ll find a way out”
Amberle sniffed “Thank you”
“Are you hungry?” Zachary asked and pu-ll-ed away from the hvg
“No.. I just nee-d company”
Zachary smiled and squee-zed her hand lightly “I’m here for you”
“Call Terry on the phone.. I really want to talk to him”
“Not now Amberle, he’s still trying to get over everything”
Amberle sighed and looked away “I wish we never met” she said softly and a tear escaped her eyelid
“you shouldn’t regret meeting Terry, he truly loves you. But most times, what we seek isn’t what we get”
“I’ll ab-ort the baby”
“don’t say that Amberle, I’m not gonna let you kill your child”
“I can’t keep it, cause if I do, then I’ll never be with Terry again and each time I look at the child, I’ll keep remembering Goldsax”
“you’re keeping it Amberle, I won’t let you risk your life”
“Zac let me do it, I alre-ady told the doctor. He promised it’s going to be successful”
“Are you listening to yourself Amberle?”
“Zac I alre-ady thought about it. This child is going to be Terry’s sibling why all I ever wanted was to carry his baby”
“Look Amberle, I’m sorry it didn’t happen that way but you can’t risk your life”
“I don’t care risking everything I’ve got to get rid of Goldsax’s offspring. I can’t bear a child for a man who killed my father”
“But you love a man whose father killed your father”
“Zac?!”
“Keep the baby”
“Who’s going to take responsibility?”
“I don’t mind taking responsibility. We could tell the whole world I’m the father of the baby. We could make Terry believe that also. Maybe he wouldn’t hate the child the way he hates it now”
“Zac you’ve done enough but I wouldn’t want you taking responsibility of another man’s child”
“Amberle I don’t want to lose your forever. I can bear loosing you to Terry but not to death. You can’t ab-ort the baby”
Amberle heaved a de-ep sigh and stared blankly at him.
“Thanks”
“For what?”
“for being here”
Zachary laughed
“I’m serious, I was thinking of so many crazy ways to end my life before you walked in”
“you’re not going to end your life no matter what you face” Zachary said “Not even because of the baby nor Goldsax”
“Alright” Amberle smiled genuinely
“The doctor alre-ady discharged you, he said you can leave once you’re re-ady”
“I’m re-ady now but…” Amberle paused and asked “who paid the bills?”
“Terry did”
“Before he found out about the baby?”
“No.. After he found out” Zachary replied ” the baby didn’t st©p he from loving you, trust me”
Amberle chuckled “why are you taking sides with Terry? Because he’s your friend?”
“I’m not taking sides with anyone. I just don’t want you thinking he hates you or love you less because of the baby”
“Alright” Amberle smiled “now that I’m discharged, where do I go from here?”
“To my house” Zachary suggested then discarded the idea “that’s the least safest place you’ll ever be. Goldsax will definitely find you there”
“Then where do I go?”
“back to the h0tel”
“With Terry?” Amberle shook her head in disagreement “I can’t face him now”
“If you both aren’t able to face yourselves now, then you might never be able to face yourselves ever again”
“Zac?!”
“Trust me Amberle, it’s gonna be alright. I’m still here to make sure of that”
Amberle smiled. She suddenly wished she had fallen in love with Zachary instead.
“I think it’s time to get out of here. I’m alre-ady sick of the stench in here, and I nee-d a comfortable sleep”
Zachary smiled broadly “you’re going to get that.. A whole lot of it”
“yea! That’s what single moms do”
“Amberle?”
“what?”
“I’ll get you arrested for wrong choice of words” Zachary said and she giggled
Zachary dropped Amberle off at the h0tel and left to check on Terry cause he wasn’t taking his calls.
Just like he thought, Terry was still in the bar when he got there. Zachary took a stool beside Terry and ordered for a bottle of liquor.
“why aren’t you taking my calls?” he asked Terry
“I’m not in the mood” Terry stated nonchalantly
“you promised to go talk to Amberle at the hospital but you didn’t”
Terry looked at him sternly “how do I look at her? What do I tell her?”
“then you should’ve just left her in the penthouse. You knew she was your father’s mistress when you took her away….”
“what I didn’t know is she was pregnant”
Terry yelled “how do I live with it”
“I un-derstand how difficult it must be for you but what about Amberle? She truly loves you and she alre-ady booked an ab-ortion so she can be with you”
“Amberle booked for an ab-ortion?”
“she had no choice, you abandoned her in the hospital and she felt you were gone”
Zachary’s ordered arrived and he poured out some liquor in a wine glas-s
“I’m loosing my mind Zac”
“That’s why you’ve got to talk to her. Put heads together and sort things out”
“easy for you to say”
“I totally un-derstand but you can’t give up on her”
“I’m trying my best not to but I can’t help it”
“you’ve got to try Terry, Amberle nee-ds you now more than ever”
Terry picked a pack of cigarettes and took out a stick then he lit it.
“Tell me Zac, what do you suggest I do now?”
“Talk to Amberle, be with her, and make her see she isn’t alone and you still love her despite the fact that she’s pregnant”
“for my dad” Terry added
“I wasn’t going to say that”
“But that’s the truth.. That’s what is difficult for me to accept”
“What if you were in Amberle’s condition? What if Georgia shows up claiming to be pregnant for you. What would you suggest Amberle do?
Leave you?”
Terry sipped from his glas-s of drink “I don’t know”
“just go back to her Terry, at least for now”
“Where is she now?”
“The doctor alre-ady discharged her so I drove her to the h0tel”
Terry glanced at his wrist watch “I’ve stayed here for hours”
“Amberle kept insisting on talking to you and when you weren’t taking my calls, she wrote this….” Zachary groped in his pockets for the paper but couldn’t find anything “I think I left it in my car. I’ll go get it” he added and hurried out. Zachary searched in his car and found the paper lying on the floor. He picked at and returned to the bar. When he got back to their seat, Terry was no longer there.
“Terry?! Terry?!” he called and hurried to the bar man “did you see the guy I was talking with over there?”
“yea! He left for the restroom” the bar man replied
“Thank you” Zachary returned to their seat and waited for Terry to return from the restroom.
MINUTES LATER ⌚
Zachary kept checking the time impatiently. Terry was taking too long in the restroom. He got up and went to check on Terry in the restroom.
“Terry?!” Zachary called as he searched all the rooms but couldn’t find Terry.
“Terry?!”
“shhhh!” someone hushed from behind and Zachary whirled around to see Terry standing behind him like a ghost
“Gosh! Terry?!” Zachary sighed “you startled me”
“I’m sorry”
“where have you been? I’ve been looking for you all around and now I lost the paper”
“I think I saw some of Goldsax’s men enter the bar when you left so I had to hide”
“I didn’t see anyone”
“I don’t think they’re gone”
“let’s get out of here” Zachary stated and led Terry out throu-gh the back door.
They left the bar and Zachary drove Terry back to the h0tel.
“You have to act cool and don’t give her the cold shoulder. She might end us committing suicide” Zachary lectured when he pu-ll-ed the car to halt in front of the h0tel
“I alre-ady have an idea of what to do when I see her”
“what is it?”
“sought things out” Terry replied “we were having an argument earlier because of a female receptionist Amberle is jealousy of.. I think we should settle that first”
“Now you’re talking”
*****
Terry knocked softly on the room door and pushed it open without waiting for a reply. Amberle was pacing up and down when he walked in and locked the door.
“Teddy bear?!” Amberle grinned and hvgged him.
Terry reluctantly hvgged her back then gradually pu-ll-ed from the hvg.
“I’m sorry for not showing up at the hospital” he apologized
“it’s okay.. I alre-ady forgave you”
Terry smiled and ran his f!ngersdown her cheeks.
“And about Mandy, I’m also sorry”
“I should be the one apologizing. I guess I overreacted”
“didn’t overreact.. I shouldn’t be getting close to anyone else”
“The Doctor said….”
“forget about what the doctor said” Terry interrupted “I’ve been meaning to do this”
he claimed herl-ips hungrily with his hands all over her b©dy. Amberle held him ti-ght and responded to the k!ss. A k!ssshe had been waiting for all along.
It meant everything to her. It proved to her that Terry didn’t abandon her after all.
Terry carried her to the be-d and made her lie down with him on her.
“Terry?! Are you sure of this?”
“I’ve never been sure of anything but that whole life”
Amberle smiled. But behind that smile was a hidden pain that Terry could see.
“I love you” he whispered and inclined his face towards hers, claiming herl-ips again. This time, he k!$$£d her for so long that they had to pu-ll away to catch their breaths.
“I want you to undress for me Amberle” he whispered while ni-bbling her ear
Amberle shuddered “I’m too shy to do that.. Just take me”
Terry chuckled “I know” he turned off the light and slowly undressed her.
