GRACELIFE HOSPITAL>
“Doctor.” Fernando called immediately, he got to her ward.
The doctor was just coming out of it.
“Mr Pérez.” He called with a bright smile and Fernando smiled back.
“You said she was awake.” He said with a smile.
He was extremely happy that she survived. Thank God. He was surely not gonna be able to handle the guilt if kílling someone for the rest of his life.
“Yeah.”
“Thank God.” He muttered.
“Can- can I see her?” He asked and the doctor nodded.
“Yes, you can. See her and return back to me so we can discuss other necessities that has to be done.” He said and Fernando nodded.
The doctor left and he walked into her ward.
She was just sitting up on the bed, she held the bandaged tied on her head as she sat up.
Seems like she noticed she wasn’t only the one in the room as her eyes darted up and she saw him.
“Hi.” He said.
“Who are you and How did I get here?” She asked instead, she only remembered been pushed to the road and hit by a car.
Was he probably the one who hit her?
“You got hit by my car so I brought you here. Are you okay?” He asked and she groaned lowly.
She could still feel the pains nudging at her.
Gawd!
“I’m fine. It’s not your fault actually… I wanted to be kílled after all and if you didn’t even come, I’d have díed. Thanks for helping.” She smiled and he furrowed his brows.
“You wanted to be kílled? How?” He asked and she sighed.
She opened her mouth to speak but stopped when she suddenly remembered something.
‘Her mom!!’
“Wait. For how long have I been unconscious?” She asked, panic clearly written on her face.
“Five days.”
“Damnit!”
‘Mom, how is she?’ She thought.
“I have to go.” She said, hastily getting down from the bed but Fernando stopped her.
“Where to? You just woke up and you need to rest…”
“No I don’t need to rest… My mom’s life is more important, please let me go.” She pleaded, almost in tears.
“Your mom’s life in danger? How?” He asked with concern and she sighed before sitting back.
“My mom has cancer…” She said sadly and began explaining everything to him.
He sighed when she was done.
“I don’t even have the money for her surgery. All the money I saved up where been used to clear up the debts left by our father and mom’s ailment as a surprise to me. She was hiding it from me and when I found out it was almost late, I can’t save up her surgery bills within the few period she has.” She cried and Fernando patted her.
“It’s okay, which hospital is it?” He asked and her eyes brightened.
“STARLIGHT HOSPITAL.” She replied sharply and he nodded.
“It’s okay, let me see the doctor first.” He said and left the room.
Marianna smiled. She hopes he helps her.
“Mom.” She muttered with a smile.

“Woah- hoo!!” Ricky squealed as he went round the merry-go-round.
“Yeehe!!”
After the PTA meeting was concluded in school. Miguel took him from school, despite they haven’t closed yet.
He didn’t know why, but he just wanted to spend time with him. He felt this strange connection with him, maybe it’s because he looks like Yolanda, that’s why he got this feeling of attachment.
Right now, just like you know, they’re in an amusement park. They’ve had alot of fun and Ricky was extremely excited.
This would be his first time having this kinda fun..
“Nooo, I don’t wanna go home.” He squealed as Miguel announced to him that they were going home.
He wanted to stay long. It was really fun, he didn’t wanna go yet.
“C’mon Ricky. Your mom or nanny might be looking for you. Remember they don’t know where you are.” He said but Ricky pouted nit wanting to listen.
Miguel sighed, holding his eyes. “Okay, let’s go get ice cream.” He said and his eyes shone.
“Ice cream. Yippee!! Ice cream!!” He screamed, running to the ice cream stand.
Miguel laughed before following him. They got to the ice cream stand and he bought two cup of ice cream which they licked there.
“Here, you have ice cream stain on your cheek.” Miguel told Ricky and he arched his brows.
“Ice cream, where? Help me clean it, I can’t.” He said, showing his two hands which was holding the ice cream and spoon.
Miguel smiled before helping to clean the ice cream in his cheeks but why doing so, Ricky also applied ice cream on his on face.
“What!!”
“Yeah, you look good in it. You look like a clown.” He stuck his tongue at him and Miguel laughed.
“This kid.” He said and smiled as an idea popped in his head, he took a spoon of ice cream and splashed it on his face.
“What!” Ricky yelled and did the same.
Soon they started splashing each other ice cream, laughing and giggling.
While doing this, they mistakenly splashed the plate of ice cream on a lady who was walking towards the ice cream stand.
“Oh oh ” They muttered as the ice cream covered her face and slowly slipped down.
“Ricky… Run!!!” And immediately they began running out of there.
“Holy Christ! Wait here you two! I’m gonna kîll you today! Damnit!!” The girl shouted.
The two got to Miguel’s car and they began laughing hard.
“Gawd! That was fun!” Ricky exhaled.
“Right!” Miguel said as he turned on the cars ignition and began driving.
He opened the car’s roof and Ricky stood on his feet, sticking his head outside.
“Whoa- ho!!” He screamed, expanding his hands as the cool breeze hit him, his hair flying backwards.
“I love this!!” He screamed as they drove off.
Miguel got to nanny Clara’s with Ricky directing him.
“We’re here right.” He asked and Ricky nodded.
“Let’s go see my nanny.” He said and Miguel nodded walking with him inside.
“So we’re friends right?” He asked and Ricky smirked.
“I’m still reconsidering.” He stuck out his tongue at him.
“You naughty child.” He said as they got to the door.
“Wait here, let me inform nanny Clara first before you come in.” He said and Miguel sighed.
“Is that really necessary?” He asked and Ricky nodded.
“Wait here.” He said before going in.
“Ricky!!” They both squealed, rushing to him immediately they saw him.
“Mommy, nanny.” He called with a smile.
Actually, nanny Clara had gone to pick Ricky from school as always but when she got there today, she was told that his dad had come pick him up.
She tried rectifying to them the mistake but they were very sure his dad came to pick him up. They also told her that he attended the PTA for him.
Being perplexed and puzzled, she called Yolanda and informed her.
After searching for sometime they decided to come wait till evening before placing a complain to the police.
And now he was here…
“Ricky!” Nanny Clara was the first to hug him before Yolanda.
“Where have you been?” She asked him, looking kinda worried.
“I just went out to have fun with him, he’s a friend.” He said with a big smile.
“He?” Nanny Clara questioned.
“Did he say he was your dad?” Nanny Clara asked and he nodded.
“That’s what he said but he was lying actually. He only said so he could represent me in the PTA meeting.” He explained and they exhaled.
“I kinda wish he is my dad, yunno.” He said and they widened their eyes.
“Yes, actually he’s at the door nanny, come see him… My new friend.” He said, dragging their both hands as he walked out of the house.
Yolanda’s mind wondered who it could be as she was been taken outside.
For some reason, she kinda anxious and curious.
Ricky opened the door and it revealed…
