Meanwhile Cynthia was in her room slee-ping, she didn’t go to her shop that day because for the past few days she have not been feeling fine. so as she was slee-ping all of a sudden, she jumped up from the be-d and rushed to the toilet to throw up. after she finished throwing up she c@m£ out from the toilet.
“Am very weak this days and I have been throwing up as well, what exactly is wrong with me? but that reminds me, I was expecting my period for the past two months now but still I have not seen it yet, does it mean that am pregnant? no I don’t think so, well tomorrow I will go to the hospital to know what exactly is wrong with me. “she said to herself and then went to the sitting room because she feels that if she go inside the room to sleep back that she might throw up again, that was why she decided to go to the sitting room. on getting to the sitting room, she switched on the television and sat down on the couch watching it, after they finished the program that she was watching on the Television, they started showing news. on the news they show a car which fell from the bridge and almost scattered.
“OMG!! this is a terrible accident, are you sure that the people involve will survive this accident? Cynthia asked no one in p@rticular as she continues watching the news, not too long they showed some policemen removing the accident victims from the car.
“what a pity, is even couples that was involved in the accident but wh…….”she st©pped talking because the faces look familiar to her, she couldn’t recognize them easily because their faces was covered with blood and also their b©dy, Cynthia went close to the television to know if she can recognize the faces of the accident victims. she continue observing the faces on the television until she saw the wrist watch bright normally wear, that was when she knew that it was bright and Nancy that was involved in the accident, she screamed and then rushed to the hospital because the name of the hospital which they were taking to was mentioned on the television.

When Cynthia got to the hospital, she saw one of the nurse and rush to her.
“good afternoon, I heard that my husband was brou-ght to this hospital, where is he? I want to see him plea-se. “Cynthia said pacing
“your husband? what is his name? the nurse asked

“bright Nelson?? you mean the accident victim ? the nurse asked again

if truly you are his wife, then who is the other lady to him? does it mean that both of you are his wives? I mean the lady they were both involved in the accident, who is she to him ? the nurse curiously asked, but before Cynthia could say anything the doctor c@m£ out

“she said that she want to see bright the accident victim .” the nurse replied
