She will be called Gold
The sterile scent of the hospital faded beneath the soft lullaby of a new born's first cries. Alexander, lay still, her chest rising and falling gently, eyes fluttering open to meet the world with a calmness that only a woman who had survived the fire could possess.When she heard her baby crying non stop, it dawn on her that she has survived the fire for real. She was alive and her baby was alive too. She is officially a mom, she will be called Mummy. She couldn't help but allow tears spill from the corners of her eyes as the nurse gently laid the tiny bundle against her chest. The warmth of her daughter's body melted into her own, and a sob, escaped her lips. The sound came out with so much awe, pain, gratitude and surely happiness.Her body felt so soft, so fragile against hers, as she held her.She looked down at her daughter to view her properly and she noticed some qualities that was already stealing her heart. Pink cheeks. Wisps of dark hair, just like her Dad's, her eyes barel
suspicious instincts
Ryan was shocked at first, but he felt she hasn't heard anything, because if she has, she would not be confronting him with smiles, she would be confronting him with questions, that would put him on his toes."I am okay, it was just a cut I had. I was operated on, and I was not supposed to carry anything heavy, but I guess you know the rest". He was still lying, or was she the one wrong? Now that Alexander is no more fighting him, he should be able to say the truth, if he is the one, she should know and appreciate him more. "A cut huh? She asked rhetorically, taking her seat beside him."Anyways, I want to thank you for earlier.". Ryan was surprised that Annie was being nice to him, and even thanking him for doing something as small as carrying his wife or rather, his ex wife.Maybe she really should thank him, since they were no longer together, to her, he doesn't owe her anything, if that is how she feels, he doesn't feel that way. She carries a part of him now, she should feel him
The unknown saviour is known
Ryan struggled to find a nearby pharmacy, where he got a pill to help numb the pain, then the pharmacist help him bandage his wound, but told him he needed to be checked into a hospital, after he learned that he just had a major surgery. After the local dressing done on his wound, Ryan started off home gradually, but he didn't get to his house, he was just at the door, when he started bleeding again, and before he knew what was happening, he collapsed outside his house. He could see people rushing towards him, and loud voices of calling for help could be heard, but he could not open his eyes, no matter how much he wanted to keep it open, he couldn't.When he finally opened his eyes, he was in the same hospital he had worked so hard to run from. He had thought he could escape going to the hospital till after Alexander was discharged, but seeing how critical his case was, they must have panicked and that was why they sent him to the hospital. He looked around him, and saw no one. That
A close one
Annie was too happy about the order to notice that her friend was feeling a little uncomfortable. She wouldn't suspect it is labour, since she hasn't been in that situation before, and the hospital had told them the expected date, so they are not expecting the baby in any way to come out."Are you sure you are ready to face Ryan? Annie asked, trying to strike a conversation and make sure she is ready and knows what to say and how everything will turn out."Yes I am". Was all her response. She was not giving Annie that joy of hearing her explain what she was going to do, so Annie decided not to speak anymore nor ask her anymore questions, until they arrive at the store.Annie wanted to pack far away from the entrance, the same place she had packed the other day, but Alexander needed her to pack close to the entrance, it will be easier for her, and it will prevent her from walking long, an exercise, she isn't ready to embark on.Annie held up the door for Alexander and helped her out.
Alexander meets Ryan
Lindsay took a long look at the ladies before her, it is not everyday she gets a visitor, and who knows, they might actually be of help to her someday, or to her son, who is gonna live, so she urged them to take their seat, because it is going to be a really long talk."First of, I am going to start by apologizing". "No one wants to hear your silly apologies, so just answer the question or you don't". Annie cut in, getting angry at the silly idea of talking to her before meeting with Ryan, she thinks it is a bad idea, and from all indication, it is posing to be."Let her speak". Alexander interrupted, she also gave Annie the look that she would t want such interruption from her again."Like I was trying to say earlier. I'm really sorry for what happened. I have done wrong by you and I have never done anything right. As a matter of fact, I wanted you out of the way, the same way your mother left this world, I wanted you to leave too". Though she was speaking the truth and something A
A helpful hand from the prison
Lindsay, since being imprisoned, had never been called out that she has got a visitor waiting for her, therefore, her feelings on this special day was expected, because when she heard her voice being called that she has got a visitor, she asked again, if they are sure, they have got the right name.Her son wants nothing with her. Else, he might have been the only person coming to visit her, but he wants nothing with her, and she understands him perfectly, especially after what he heard happened, and how it must have made his dad feel and maybe act towards him.Damien Brick was never going to come visit her. They were already separated and she had been trying to get back with him, before this incident, which clears poses as a permanent scar, never to go away from his heart. The way he stared at her, she didn't need anyone telling her that he could never forgive her again, no matter how much she begs for it."I think this is a bad idea, we really should go".
