My daughter, God bless you.
Please my Barrister, please don’t stress yourself oh…..
The doctor said it’s accumulated stress and some other grammar I didn’t get to hear because I was overjoyous…
(Fainting, technically known as syncope, is a temporary loss of consciousness, usually caused by low blood pressure and a lack of oxygen in the brain. Pregnancy hormones can cause the heart rate and blood supply to increase, while blood vessels relax, all of which can lead to dizziness and fainting).
Simi smiled, thank you mommy. I understand, at least now you’re a soon-to-be grandma. How’s Chief?
Yes oh, my daughter, that reminds me…… wait I’m coming, let me go check on him. Our God has smiled on me today, he brought back chief to me and you too my dear when death popped up…
Let me go with you… Simi cuts in.
The doctor interrupts her. Barrister, we need to do some checkups, you won’t be able to go anywhere for now, and you need to eat, where’s your husband ma?
Mama, where’s my husband? Simi enquired.
I should be asking you, Simi. I have called that boy countless time ooo.
I’m here mama, honey I’m here now… Josh walks in with a teary smile. Charis filled me in as I was coming, let’s go see Dad. He pecks Simi and whispers to her ears “I love you dear, thanks for not letting go”. She smiled and hugged him faintly.
Doctor, let’s go see my dad, what’s his condition? Josh enquired as he pats Simi on the head. I’m coming Honey… he said and left with the doctor and Mrs Azikwe.

Oh yes! you guessed right Kore! you guessed right! My Dad’s awake!
Are you serious?
Yes , Kore. Our Jesus does the impossible! I’m so excited right now!
Hmmm…
Yes Kore…….. you don’t sound happy, are you not happy for me?
Sure! Why won’t I? I’m happy Kore but what about your in-law, did she make it?
Oh, now I see why you sounded that way, she made it, thanks Kore, Infact with three months pregnancy, she laughed.
Are you serious? Now that calls for celebration!
Oh yes, I’ll be leaving the office shortly, where are you?
I’m also wrapping up here, I’ll come pick you…
Thanks so much Kore. thank you, you’re a good man.
She cuts the line.
Am i really a good man?, Kore thought to himself.
Can I still go on with this, she’s innocent and does not deserve this, how did I get to this point? oh Korewa! Ko re wa!
[] Indeed, all this began when I went to stay over at Pastor Akande Charles house when my parents went on a 2week mission trip to Ęiyęnkorin village.
The End.
