❣️IT WASN’T LUST ❣️
🌹Episode 8🌹
What! I wasn’t smiling, she said and made a serious face…. Anyway I was just trying to know some things about the hero that rescued my sister that’s all
She said and made that silly Smile again
I just ignored her this time and drafted my letter…. After which I went to my bag to look for something to wear.
The shirt was on my bag and as I raised it up, I smelt the same perfume of last night, it was still strong and fresh as of last night. Wow! It must be a very costly perfume I said and whispered thank you to the shirt before putting it away to take the cloth I will wear for the day.
After we both dressed up, we went to the hospital, once I stepped into the doctors office, my heart started beating like some one that ran 800meter race
My friend helped in explaining every thing to the doctor….. He felt pity for me and carried my medical check up free of charge, we were asked to return later in the evening or tomorrow morning for the result
I was praying in my heart that there will be no complications because if there should be any, I will take my own life by myself
Instead of staying at the hospital, we decided to go to the our working place and submit the letter also talk with the manager face to face as well
We entered a cab which dropped us in front of the hotel where we work. We got down and I became very nervous to go inside, I felt that every one must have known and heard about how I was råped yesterday. I handed the letter to UC and turned to go home or back to the hospital
Just stop it Josy, nobody knew about what happened to you apart from me, the doctor and the supposed guy that rescued you last night, good a thing that he won’t even recognize you or you recognize him when each of you cross parts, So your secret is very much safe with us, trust me is confidential
She said trying to convince me, but I know few people in the hotel knows about that as well. Please let’s go inside people will start looking, she added
No, I said.. you told me you called the manager this morning and told him about what happened to me last night, you know how news spreads, few others must have heard it too… I said almost in tears
She smiled… Josy I thought you should have known me by now and know what I can do but is obvious you don’t know me too well, she said and frowns
What are you trying to say? I asked feeling uneasy.
What I’m trying to say is that I didn’t tell the manager anything, I only told him that you are very sick and might not be able to come to work today
That’s not true, you’re just trying to lure me inside, how come you are at home as well since is just sickness you mentioned to him? I said still maintaining my position of not going inside
You know that I can joke very well right, and you also know that I can’t joke with trivial issues as these.
OK listen,
Have you forgotten that I worked Tina’s turn last week and she’s doing my turn starting from today, she said with a smile on her face
Wow! That was a relief, I felt like carrying her up right now, but I coldly say.
I’m sorry UC, I should have known you too well to know that you ain’t lying to me, just that what I’m passing through right now is really getting a better part of me
I said soberly
That’s why you should put yourself together and move on, you remember my situation years back right? I was able to move on so you have to also move on as well because there’s more to life than the eyes has met…. UC said in a very comforting way
I nodded in agreement and went into the hotel, I was free and able to greet my colleagues and customers that are around, every eyes that sees me sure knows that I am not my usual self.
Then we headed to the managers office, my heart was racing and I wasn’t comfortable because is a he, and I don’t know what he will say or think of me again because of what I’m about to tell him right now
I encouraged myself by the constant reminding that his a married man and will understand my predicament
Minutes later, we told him every thing and he was so understanding and compassionate that he gave me almost a week off and even gave me the sum of #5000 and advised me to go for medical checkups, He also assured me that my secret is safe with him.
I thanked him together with Uc
I was beaming with joy because this journey is quite a relieve
UC noticing my countenance smiled and said….. Don’t worry, as long as meeting manager was a success, the results will also be a success.
I forced a smile and said I hope so oo…. UC is quite a mind reader.
We got to the hospital and my heart started pounding again like when Tom wants to catch Jerry in the cartoon “Tom and Jerry”, you know how Jerry’s heart used to beat right? That’s how my heart is beating right now
The doctor asked us to wait for more 30mints and I began to pray in my mind, 45 minutes later, the doctor came with the result, he wanted to say something but an emergency call came in and he left immediately with out a word
I held the result and my hands was trembling in fear, I can’t open it, I don’t know what my eyes will behold so I gave it to UC,
She opened it and it was..
Oh my God!
TBC
