Episode 16 : A Risky Plan
“You shouldn’t have done it that way babe, it now seems as if you are taking things too far,” Angelina said to Patricia, who explained everything to her and how and what they discussed with Desmond.
“But I was just trying to be friendly with him, ” Patricia explained, hoping that her response will be okay with Angelina.
“I know, but I’m just warning you to be careful so as not to be hurt again like what Raymond did to you, and I’m not okay with those that their names end with mond,” she said, looking into her eyes.
“What if he doesn’t love you as you think “? Angelina continued seeing how weak and hopeless Patricia was.
“I know he loves me too, but…
“But what, Patricia? What? Please be careful I won’t stand to see you hurt again, never. If he loved you, he would have made a move up till now, ” Angelina explained, and seeing the truth in words, Patricia leaned on her shoulders, sniffing as they hug each other.
“Yes, you are right, but I love her more, I know I’ve taken too much time, but I was waiting for the right time,” a voice sounded from outside, gaining their attention, they disengage looking at the direction the voice came from and to their greatest shock there stood there handsome Desmond leaning on the door. He heard everything they all said.
Patricia stood up in alert, checking whether she’s naked or fully covered.
“Wait, how did you get here in the first place,” Patricia asked, feeling shy.
“Love made it simple for me to locate you. I love you, Patricia,” Desmond said boldly.
Jerold was busy making calls to have information about how Tessy’s case is going.
“yeah, D. P. O, how’s the case going “? He asked, placing the phone on his ear.
“My boys are working on that, don’t worry, it will be solved soon,” he assured, and Jerold ended the call having it clear that Tessy will soon be found.
Raymond’s father was also looking for his son Raymond, a big mess to him. He has dragged his name on the mud. How could he join a secret cult and have someone’s daughter kidnapped?
He reported the case to the cops too that Raymond is wanted, they carried out the order with immediate effect. It was a bad day for Raymond because it’s three teams looking for him, the axemen, his father’s policemen, and Jerold police officers looking for just one person called Raymond.
Tessy was so weak to carry herself up after being untied by the cops, and they looked into arrow’s wardrobe to find a shirt for her to wear and cover her nakedness, which she covered herself immediately, feeling shy.
“What’s the meaning of this? Why playing tricks with me “? Arrow barked at his fellow guys angrily for such a thing.
“No, it’s not a joke. They were after us, and I can’t know where they went, “the mentor explained, bringing out his pistol.
“Let it better not be a joke oo because if it is, you will have your life for it to pay, ” arrow said angrily, and just then he knew that there’s another route that leads to his house, in alert he shouted.
“Let’s go this way, boys”! Arrow ordered, taking the lead running to the route the cops took. It was going to be a big war between the two teams who are going to exchange bullets.
The cops came out with Tessy, she was well covered, and she was in the middle. The cops make sure that she’s safe. The speed arrow and his men were carrying so as Tessy would not be taken away by the cops, they were at a very high speed, but their speed retarded immediately they saw the cops leading Tessy out of the house.
“Go down, everybody “! He ordered his men, who took their cover on the bush, positioning Their pistol well to shoot. Seeing that, the cops ordered for Tessy to be covered so as the bullet should not get to her. Two officers carried out the order while others waited for their riffles to fire when the order was being passed.
“Surrender now or never, ” Sir James commanded, who was the leader of the cops.
“Never “! Arrow voiced our loud too from his hiding place with a deep voice. He wasn’t ready for defeat, so as the cops.
Soon bullets began flying in the air between the two teams who were not ready to allow the other foot to defeat them.
Patricia stood to watch Desmond like a ghost. Seeing him in her house when she didn’t even expect it was like a dream to her, and how he even got to know her location was another story. Hearing the confession Desmond made earlier was like she was hallucinating.
They looked at each other in eyes which were filled with love and strength as they began walking slowly towards each other, still looking into each other’s eyes as they slowly stopped before each other in a way they were so close to each other so that their lips were not far from each other.
“I’ve loved you, Patricia, for a while now,” Desmond said again, holding her palms.
Episode 17 : The Climactic Showdown
The gun battle between the cops and the dragon lords finally ended which the cops killed 2 of the dragon lord’s men, and they killed one cop. Arrow escaped from them but not after a bullet caught him on his shoulder, which he used to run, blood was running down the place the bullet hit, and he didn’t care but kept running.
Raymond, too, was hiding hearing the news that his father wants him arrested. The news had already gone viral that Raymond, the vice chancellor’s son, is an evil and cruel cultist who happens to be the Capone.
The house went silent for a while immediately. Desmond confessed his love to Patricia, who didn’t know how it even started. The eye look was just too much, and the room’s silence can cause everything to be heard from a far distance. Tears were already formed in Patricia’s eyes as she looked away, preventing it from dropping. Angelina noticed it, and she had to speak on behalf of her friend, to which she stood up immediately.
“I’m sorry, you need to allow her to rest for now,” Angelina said to Desmond, who didn’t understand it.
“What did you say”? He asked again to be sure he heard her well though he heard it but needed the confirmation.
“I sat. Let her be, for now, and she’s not ready for anything,” she replied, looking at Patricia, who nodded her head in a yes gesture and disengaged her hands from his walking down to the window sight looking away so as not to be carried away by Desmond handsomeness. But deep down, she felt like hugging him and never letting him go. She loved him too, which makes it perfect, but she had to control herself in the meantime.
“Yes, Desmond, she’s right. You have to go,” she added, still looking outside the window.
“What do you mean I have to go,” he asked but got no response as Patricia sniff.
“Please just leave first. We will talk some other day,” Patricia said, looking at him this time around, and Desmond felt hurt deep down but has to control it. He was, at the same time, feeling angry but pretended.
“But I overheard you saying you loved me too “? He stopped and looked at her, and Patricia didn’t know what to say again as she exchanged eye contact with Angelina, who understood what she meant.
“Fine, I’ve heard you, I’m leaving,” he announced, and just as he turned to leave, the door was kicked open by a strong leg which seems so powerful, there stood arrow before Desmond with his shoulder being tied with clothing and it was soaked with blood. Be stood there pointing the pistol at Desmond, ready to pull the trigger. The girls were already killed with fear as they vibrate, shaking. In fear, they all hide behind Desmond.
“Hello, mister Desmond, we meet again, ” arrow said in a mockery tone, but Desmond didn’t say anything cause he was busy strategizing on how to get the gun from him.
“What are you doing here, and who are you here for “? Desmond asked.
“And who are you to ask me such a question “? Arrow fired back in anger, not minding his blood that was wasting.
“I demand to know, ” Desmond spoke again boldly to him.
“I’m here for that crazy over there,” he replied, pointing the gun to Patricia, who looked up in fear seeing that he was referring to her. Arrow had discovered that Patricia and Raymond were dating secretly without their knowledge before they broke up. He’s here to take his revenge on how Raymond killed his girlfriend by rape. The transfer aggression was just too much.
The silence in the room was just too much as arrow cracked the gun and was about pulling the trigger when Desmond pounced on him, and they both landed on the floor. Desmond sends him a punch on the jaw, which caught him unaware, and blood started dripping down. Arrow rolled over and was on top of Desmond.
He sent him a heavy punch too on the nose, which blood s Te started oozing out. The ladies were just screaming and crying, and though the arrow was wound, he still got power. He sent Desmond a different blow, which landed on his body.
Desmond was now weak and had no help. He was still struggling with the arrow, and the gun was now far from both of them.
“Kick the gun away, Patricia,” Desmond said to her, sounding weak. Patricia was just shaking in fear, not knowing whether to run or carry out the order.
Arrow sent Desmond the last punch, which got him dumb immediately. He stood up and picked the pistol.
“I’m sorry, dude, I have to finish what I started,” he said, pointing the gun at Desmond, who kicked him in the balls immediately, and he fell to the ground groaning in pain.
Desmond stood up, slowly staggering.
“Run! Patricia, run and save your life “! He shouted on top of his voice, and the Two girls ran out of the house immediately.
Arrow was crying in pain, rolling on the floor.
“I will be there now,” Mr. Louis said and matched the accelerator as the car increased its speed on the highway. He just received the news that Raymond is about to be caught, and they need his presence, which he had to be there.
Arrow had struggled up from the floor and picked up the pistol again, pursuing Desmond, who was now running helplessly on the street as he winced in pain. Mr. Louis was at s high speed on the road as he kept glancing at the car mirror. Just then, Desmond appeared on the road from nowhere on the track Mr. Louis was driving.
“No! ” Mr. Louis shouted on top of his voice as he matched the break, and the car made a screeching sound. Still, it didn’t stop as it hit Desmond in sway he flew on the air as landed him on the floor as he hit his head on s big rock on the road and he lost consciousness immediately as blood kept coming out in his mouth, nose and everywhere was filled with blood.
Mr. Louis alighted the car in a hurry.
Episode 18 : Tessy’s Moment of Courage
Mr. Louis ran out of the car instantly, leaving the door open to check on the guy he just knocked down. Desmond was lying lifelessly on the floor as blood kept soaking his clothes bit by bit, his eyes were closed, and his breathing rate decreased, meaning that he has just some low percentage of survival if care is not taken.
Seeing this, Mr. Louis cried for help which the people who witnessed the accident helped him carry Desmond to his car, blood-soaked everywhere, which Desmond loosed.
Mr. Louis zoomed to the hospital on alert, forgetting about his son’s case called Raymond. His speed showed that he was in danger. He didn’t want the boy to die cause he knew the suffering in raising a child. He kept glancing at the car mirror to see whether Desmond is still breathing, which he was still breathing but slowly.
Arrow had escaped immediately the car hit Desmond. He ran deep inside the bush without knowing his direction. Darkness began taking over the atmosphere, thereby making the environment dark.
He didn’t stop running cause he knew that the cops are still after him and his fellow gang members, the memory of how mentor and his fellow gang members how they were killed a few hours ago kept flooding back into his memory as he shook his head pitifully regretting how he ends up joining the bad gang after his father’s last word on the planet earth.
“My son, college life is not easy to live but please make sure you don’t join a lousy gang. Please make your mom proud of you, son,” Mr. Stanley said and gave up the ghost. Remembering the advice his father gave him before dying, a drop of tear trickle down his eyes. He stopped running and sat on a rock. In the bush this time around, darkness has covered everywhere as he sat down, breathing heavily.
Patricia and Angelina didn’t know whether to return to the house or not because of the earlier incident. They were terrified of dying.
“Babe, that house is not safe for us” Angelina broke the silence. They were sitting in a restaurant which they ran and hide in the afternoon because of the fear.
“But why are they after us “? Patricia said, almost in tears.
“You mean us? He said he’s after you, not us, ” Angelina corrected.
“What have I done, and who is he? I’m scared for my life is in danger oo” Patricia said, almost crying, and Angelina felt for her too. She’s like a sister to her, and she hates seeing her hurt.
“But wait, why did he mention Raymond when he was talking “? Angelina asked, thereby causing another silence that generated between them both.
“Could it be what I’m thinking “? Patricia asked.
“What’s that “?
“Could Raymond be a gangster? I mean a cultist “? She whispered to Angelina, who jerked in shock, looking at her to be sure she heard her well.
Mrs. Jerald was walking helplessly to and fro in the house, expecting to see her daughter Tessy and hear from her. Just then, the door cracked open, and there stood before an image which she can’t recall who she is. Mrs. Jerald stood, looking at her, the cops were behind the lady standing at the door, she looked pale and unkempt, she was skinny, and a bruise was on her face.
“Mom,” Tessy called, running to embrace her mother with tears in her eyes. Mrs. Jerald reciprocated the hug, which lasted for so long. She thought she would never see her again, and she thought she’d gone forever. The family reunion was a great one as they hold each other, not ready to let go. Mr. Anderson cleared his throat to gain their attention.
“Madam, here is your daughter, and for the guy, we are still working on getting him under our custody,” Mr. Anderson, the second in command of the cops, assured Mrs. Jerald, who nodded her head with happiness in her heart that her daughter is found and alive though she’s not looking good, the fact that she’s happening is the best priority.
“Thank you, officer, I’m grateful, and I owe you a lot, ” Mrs. Jerald expressed her gratitude as the cops left.
“Mom, I’m sorry I didn’t listen to you,” Tessy said and broke down in tears holding her mom on the clothing.
“It’s okay, baby, at least for now, save the explanation, ” Mrs. Jerald said, leading her to the bathroom to have a cool and quick shower, which she didn’t have for days now.
Jerold just received a call from Mr. Anderson that Tessy is found alive, which was a testimony to him assuring him that Raymond will be brought to justice for such an evil act.
He stood up, taking a sip of his drink, and then exhale in peace as he walked deeper into his room.
Mike has been trying Desmond’s number for the past five times, but nobody picks the call though the phone rang no response. He was surprised because Desmond has never ignored his calls before.
Desmond left for the lecture in the morning, and up till the time at 8:00 pm, he hasn’t returned, which is unlike him. Mike was anxious, remembering that the dragon lord’s fraternity was after he added to his fear as he was afraid whether they have succeeded in killing him.
He kept on trying his number but still no response, so he threw his phone on the bed, expecting to be called back by Desmond after seeing his call.
Patricia had finally returned to the house, though the two of them were scared whether arrow the bad guy will return, but they had no option than to return to the house no matter what it is. Just then, reality struck her that they ran and left arrow and Desmond struggling with the gun. Seeing the bloodstains on the floor, her eyes widened in shock as he squats down slowly.
” Oh my God, Where is Desmond”? She asked in alert, looking at the bloodstains on the floor, gaining Angelina’s presence.
“Oh my God, where could he be? I hope he’s safe,” she added.
“Nothing should happen to him,” she added in return, sniffing, and Angelina noticed that her mode has changed and she’s down.
“He’s fine, don’t worry, ” Angelina assured her as a smile crossed her lips.
“Thank you, she responded smiling just then a strange ringing tone starting ringing gaining their attention as they all looked to the ground to see a phone ringing which didn’t belong to any of them, Patricia bend down to pick it, she saw Desmond picture as the wallpaper on it.
“Oh my God, his phone is here,” she added, and the phone started ringing again. She slid to the receiver side, placing it on her ear.
Arrow woke up alert, looking at the environment seeing it very dark. Reality struck him that he has slept off due to stress and pain. She has lost more blood, and the wound was paining him. He was still there feeling pain when he heard leaves making a raging sound from the ground.
He looked up to see a touch light series pointing to a particular direction reality struck him that the cops are still after him. He crawled slowly on the floor to gain balance. The cops were so close to him that any mistake he’s caught. Seeing that he’s a bit far from them, he stood up, trying to run as he stumbled and fell, groaning in pain.
“There he is, get him,” Mr. Anderson ordered as the cops with their torch pursued arrow; without torchlight, he stood up and began to run, not knowing where he is heading to.
He kept running, panting, and breathing hard. He kept glancing back to see the cops are not ready to give up on the race, just then collided with someone else, and they both pointed the gun at each other. A light flashed on the arrow’s face.
“Arrow, is that you “? Raymond asked, looking closely at him as they both drop down their pistol breathing out.
“What are you doing here “? He asked.
“Are you asking me the cops are after me”? Arrow replied.
“Me too, I’m finished. My dad wants me captured again. I’m dead. If you just escaped this one, I will fly out, ” Arrow said.
“Here they are, go go go “! Mr. Anderson shouted, commanding his men as they all went after the two criminals.
“Man, go, let’s go, ” Arrow announced, and they both began running without knowing where they are heading to.
Mr. Louis had been driving for a long time without seeing any hospital that will admit the guy he knocked down, blood had already soaked his clothes, he finally saw “SAINT CHARLES HOSPITAL “boldly written as he matched the break retarding the car, he alighted the car opening the door, and the huge gate was rolled open as he drove inside the hug environment.
“Nurse! He shouted as the nurses came out with the stretcher carrying Desmond from the car and placed him on the stretcher. It was unbelievable that Desmond had stopped breathing, and his eyes were opened a bit. The wound on his head was nothing to write home about as the gap was a big one. Mr. Louis was looking at the boy he knocked down that he was no longer breathing.
“Could he be dead? Many thoughts were in his head as they rolled Desmond inside. He was really scared of killing someone’s child. Desmond was no longer breathing. The doctors ran up and down to save Desmond’s life. Mr. Louis sat down, glancing at his wristwatch. He was so tired as he slept off.
He woke up at the sound of the doctor calling him.
“How is he “? He asked just immediately, and the doctor shook his head pitifully, looking at him.
“I’m sorry, sir, we try our best but…
“But what “? Mr. Louis cut him short.
Episode 19 : Unexpected Allies and Betrayals
“Doctor, what are you trying to tell me, “? I Louis asked, adjusting his eyeglass to have a clear view of the young doctor.
“Sir, we tried our best, but we lost him,” he said, shaking his head negatively and seriously. Desmond had loose so much blood, and he has just left work some percentage of survival.
“Wait, you mean the guy is dead “? He asked again to be sure, and the doctor nodded his head in a yes gesture.
“No, no! No! It can’t be, ” Mr. Louis said, walking up and down, thinking of what to do next.
His son called Raymond got him into this big mess because if he hadn’t committed any crime, he would be in the office doing his work, and he would not have killed the guy.
“Doctor, please do anything you can. I promise you I will pay you any money you require, but please try and save the guy for me,” Mr. Louis pleaded.
“Let’s see what’s going to happen.
DESMOND’S WARD
Desmond was lying lifeless as he has already covered wort a long white sheet that only feet were seen. He was surrounded and about to be taken to the mortuary department when the doctor entered again for the second time.
He looked at the machines that were connected to his body from head to toe. It was beeping, and some were even showing red lights as it kept making some sounds. Doctor Pius looked at Desmond for the last time, thinking if there’s a way to bring him back to life, but he trusted God for a miracle.
“Get me my gloves,” he said to the nearby nurse who stood by him with all the necessary things he required, which were later brought to him.
With immediate effect, he began doing what he thinks was the best idea to bring the young man back to life, and it was fruitless and meaningless because Desmond was not responding to it.
He tried and tried, but the results remain negative. Meanwhile, Mr. Louis was walking up and down, not knowing who to call and what to do at that instant. His long black tie, he loosed it and then relaxed on the visitor’s chair before he dozes off again to a deep slumber.
It was already 10:00 pm as all the doctor’s efforts went in vain. He took off the gloves, wash his hands, and then changed into his other clothes.
“Cover him,” he ordered and walked away.
Mike couldn’t bear it anymore, wondering where Desmond was. His instincts told him that all is not going well, but he needed confirmation before, earlier a girl picked Desmond’s called, telling him that he misplaced his phone in their noise without telling him the secret. Her voice said it all that things are not going on well worth Desmond, or does it mean that I’m overthinking of the guy?
“Let’s see what tomorrow brings,” he said and covered himself with the duvet and then switched off the lights that illuminated the building before sleeping off to the land of the unknown.
The cops were not ready to let the two criminals escaped. They were still after them just to make are they are brought to justice. Raymond and arrow had been running without rest. They decided to relax after making sure that the cops are out of sight.
Just then, the cops appeared again from nowhere, this time around, they were many, and they came with police officers more than how they were before.
Raymond and arrow were still on their tracks without knowing where they were going until Raymond heard a scream loud to him and turned to see the arrow going down into a long and thorn cliff which his echoes filled the bush they were running it was just like a first because of the presence in the bush leaving only Raymond alone In the forest to continue the cops were still after him.
“Arrow! ” he called loudly, but only the repetition of his echoed that filled the forest. He looks up to the sky and looking at the moon, and he made a promise to God.
“Father Lord, please, I beg of you, if you allow me to survive this one, I’m going to serve you eternally,” he lamented, looking at the moon and then looked down back to the ground.
“Desmond, please talk to me. What’s the problem “? Mike said, stretching his hands to Desmond for a handshake. He ignored it and adjusted backward with tears in his eyes and blood all over his mouth. He kept walking back.
“Desmond, what’s this? Please let’s get out of here now before he says, “Mike said, but Desmond didn’t mind as he kept going back, and this time around, blood started coming out of his mouth.
“I’m sorry, Mike, we can’t be together anymore,” he said, letting the tears fall.
“Pleases Desmond doesn’t say a thing like that. Are you possessed, or you are drunk “? Mike asked again.
“No, I’m not Mike. Goodbye, my best friend, and say goodbye to everyone, ” Desmond said and disappeared, and Mike shouted in alert, adjusting backward.
“Nooooo! Mike shouted, waking up from sleep as the scary nightmare kept reflecting in his memory. He checked his time to see 1:27 am. How fear increased the more as he sat on the bed, thinking of the dream h3 just had, he wasn’t ready to lose someone, especially someone as unique as Desmond.
“Oh lord, please let it nor be so tg3 guy had suffered a lot, please help him out,” he lamented though he doesn’t know how to pray. He believes in prayer as he carried his phone to call Desmond’s number again, and it was picked up on the second trial.
“Hello miss, please sorry to disturb; where can I get the phone tomorrow morning “? Mike asked.
“Come to waterline street. You will see me there,” she said on the phone.
“And I guess you are Patricia he always tells me about “? He asked, and they both giggled, forgetting their sorrows.
“Till tomorrow,” he said and ended the call, praying that Desmonds should be saved for him because he knew he had suffered a lot in terms of school stuff. He shook his head and laid down sleeping.
7:00m was, already and Mike dressed to visit Patricia I’m the house to gain the truth from her.
Episode 20 : A Heartfelt Confession
Mr. Louis left in the morning for work, he slept in the hospital to make sure that the young boy is saved, but the report was still the same. A young guy of just 32 years, he knocked down dead without knowing his relatives nor anyone that knows him. What a bad day.
Mike left early in the morning to where Tessy directed him the previous night. Desmond was more than a friend to him, so he needed to know where he was.
“Hello, Patricia, I’m outside, please, ” Mike said and ended the call after being told that she’s coming out. He waited for a few minutes before Patricia emerged wearing a long handles pink gown, Lo her sight alone was stunning because Patricia was so charming and awesomely awesome. He didn’t want to be carried away by her beauty, but his main aim was to hear about Desmond and where he is.
“Hi,” Patricia greeted after getting close to him.
“Hi, I guess you are Patricia “? Mike asked, scanning her, and she nodded her head in a yes gesture.
“Please, let’s just go to the house first before any explanation,” she said, leading the way to her house as Mike followed her from behind.
Tessy had finished dressing up after explaining everything that happened to her mom. Her mom advised her to visit Jerold and explained the same thing, which was why she was dressing up to go and explain the same thing to Jerold herself. She looked at herself in the mirror to see herself as charming and attractive, though not the same way she used to be before the incident.
“Mom, I’m leaving, “! She yelled from her, which got her mom’s attention from the kitchen.
“Explain everything to him from how it starts. I know how will understand everything, ” Mrs. Jerald advice as she pecked her on the forehead and left.
“I love you, mom. “
“I love you too,” she replied as Tessy left.
Evelyn and Juliet didn’t understand what was happening again because, since then, they haven’t heard from Tessy’s mother to know how far the issue has gone. The case was not an easy one, though, but they just wish all will be well soon before it’s too late.
“Babe, do you think Tessy will survive this “? Evelyn asked.
“I pray she survive this too cause it’s getting out of hand, ” Juliet said, cutting her nails and chewing bubble gum at the same time.
“I didn’t know that Raymond is this wicked until now,” Juliet said, breaking the silence again.
“Me neither. No one knows how wicked he was until now. We just have to be careful, babe,” She replied.
Mr. Louis got home looking worried, and the time was pacing up and down in the lonely house, thinking about the guy lying lifeless in the hospital. The case was just too much for him to bear. If not for the case of his son Raymond he wouldn’t have gotten into this big mess.
He went directly into his room without wasting. He undresses and walks into the cool shower, and allows the cold water to run on his body as he forgets his worries. After a long while, he dressed up to go back to the hospital to check on Desmond.
After explaining everything to Desmond how they fought with arrow struggling with the gun, and how they came back seeing blood all over the floor. Mike couldn’t believe it, he just hopes everything will turn out to be a dream, but It wasn’t.
He stood up, standing at the window looking outside with thoughts that filled his head whether Desmond is still alive or not. Patricia was down because she had started loving the guy already, so he prayed nothing bad happened to him.
“Hi Jerold, ” Tessy greeted, looking down and feeling shy to look at Jerold in the face, and Jerold understands it too that she will be feeling guilty. He opened the door wide to enter as she entered, and Jerold closed it back, leaning on the door.
Tessy stood there, not moving again as she was filled with guilt. She started playing with her fingernails bending her head in one direction. The house was filled with silence as none of them said a word to each other.
“Jerold,” she called slowly, looking at him on the face.
“Tessy,” he replied, looking at her too, and none repeated anything as the silence also over again, they stayed like that for some minutes exchanging looks.
ST CHARLES HOSPITAL
Mr. Louis arrived at the hospital dressed in long black sleeves and long black trousers too. He immediately walked to the doctor’s office. He met him going through some of the documents.
“Good day, doctor,” Mr. Louis greeted, thus making him lookup.
“Good day, sir, welcome,” he replied, stretching his hands for a handshake as Mr. Louis accepted his hand.
“How’s the case, sir “? He asked, feeling weak again.
“Sorry, sir, the report is still the same, we have tried our best, and he was to be moved to the mortuary. We were just waiting for you,” the doctor said.
” No, sorry to interrupt, the boy can’t die just like that, please doctor helps me any amount it requires I will give e it to you. Just save his life first,” Mr. Louis said, feeling concerned.
“It’s not about money, sir, but we have tried our best but no positive report. I just don’t know what else to do.”
“I believe in God, doctor, he saves lives, and I think the life of this young boy is in his hands. Please, doctor, for the last time, do something,” Mr. Louis pleaded as the doctor shook his head for such faith the man had hoped that it works out too. He stood up and carried his code, walking to the ward Desmond was lying.
“Thank you, doctor,” Mr. Louis said.
” welcome in advance,” he said and walked away.
Getting to the ward, everywhere was busy as the nurses walked up and down to deliver their messages and errands. The young doctor stood near Desmond’s bed after ordering for the appropriate equipment to be used. He pressed him on the chest, looking at the meter but no sig.
He shocked him so many times, but the response was still the same, he tried different methods and ways he knew, but nothing changed. After a whole 1 hour nothing happened, he removed the gloves and everything as he walked out looking disappointed. He was thinking of what to tell Mr. Louis again that the report is still negative. He entered his office and closed the door from behind. His looks alone can show that the result was negative.
“How did it go, doctor”? Mr. Louis Asked, standing up in alert.
“I’m sorry I…
Before he could complete his speech, the door was opened with full force as his name was being shouted from the outside. A nurse came in dressing and panting at the same, breathing hard.
“What’s it, Mary,” he asked.
“Sir, the guy,” she replied.
“What happened to him “? He asked, looking tensed up as Mr. Louis looked at her too to hear her out.
“He just coughed and opened his eyes and closes it back instantly,” she narrated.
