Chapter 24
Chances
Regaining herself almost immediately, "ha, ha, ha, hilarious but, you are not my type." I said with a smile
"Is that so?" he asked, smiling
"Yes, old man." I spat
"Old man? Isn't that a little too much, Rose right?" he asked, but I remained quiet and just continue eating, he stared at me for a while and then, "You... Must, really, be worried about your mother?" he asked, and I froze.
"Excuse me?"
"Well, I heard from your father that you've been away for the past three years and just when you're finally reunited with your family, this happens. You must be worried?" he asked, as he glanced at me.
Sighing, "I don't know what you are suddenly talking about, doc, but I really do hate when people speak like they know anything about me when they don't." I told him, "so, I appreciate it if you just shut up and let me eat in peace." I glared at him.
Did I worry about Vivian? Yeah, right, it will be better if she never makes it alive, I thought. This is just the beginning, compare to the death sentence she put me through, her pan is just starting.
Just as I predicted, the following months were hell for the Black family, while me excluded, mother was rushed to the hospital where she had a stillborn twins, but they died after ten days through painfully, when she was informed, she lost consciousness and has been in the hospital since then.
Father was hardly home due to mother been in the hospital, and Gloria, who was also expecting, has to keep away from the hospital in other not to be affected.
I sighed, smiling at the bright sky; I took a walk in the garden. Halfway across the compound, I was suddenly stopped by Mr Clay. "You are home?" he said more than asked, as he approached me.
He was wearing a blue jean and a cut open chested T-shirt and to be honest, he was a little too handsome for his own sake, "Yeah? So what?" I asked, frowning
"I thought you went to the hospital." He stopped right in front of me
With one eye brown raised, "why, is there something special going on there?" I asked, pretending not to know what was happening.
"Oh, my apology, I was of the mind that you have heard about your mother."
"No. as a matter of fact I haven't....." I lied, "so, what happened?" I asked, faking a worried expression
"Well, she had a stillbirth but then lost the babies after ten days painfully, and now she is in a temporary coma." He said with a sad face
Sweet "Oh…. That's great…. I mean, that sad…. Hope she is never waking up….. Getting better." I smiled at him.
He stared at me, his face devoid of any emotion "You I have been observing you, and the few things I have picked up from my observation is quite disappointing," he said with a sad tone "it's not as if you don't like your family, you...you don't just like your mother, is that right?" he asked, his expression weird
I chuckled aloud "Nope… you are wrong, I'd love a mother, is there was every one for me, but….." I looked at him in the eyes, this time I killed every void of smile left in my face "I just hate Vivian Black and I desperately wish, she never wakes up and even, if she did, I hope she goes through this ordeal repeatedly, till there is nothing left of her. There, I said it." I smiled, waiting for a comeback
Shocked to be hearing such horrible words coming out from a child, Clay stared at her for a while. What the hell brought out such monstrous hatred from her? "You..." he strayed
"I'm happy, though. It was tiring of faking that annoying smile all the time. I felt a little pity for my father though, but I think it will be great if he just settled for another woman instead of that excuse of a mother," Pffff, I turned my gaze to the far distance "Oh dear Vivian, you think this is pain you are experiencing? NAAH, it only just started ….the losses you are about to have will destroy you, that I can surely guarantee." I murmured out loud, not caring about the man standing beside me, gasping with open mouth and a horrible expression, "Welcome to my world." I smiled, then turned to the man. "Thanks for the news, now I can sleep better." I said and left
Clay stood there, white and pale, like someone who just saw a ghost, he couldn't comprehend what he just heard, and it was too much.
The woman going through hell in the hospital is her mother, and yet? Jesus, how can there be so much hatred? What exactly happened? "If I'm not mistaken, Mrs Black's illness got serious since their daughter Rose arrived. From a medical prospective, and they spread the hate in her heart through the mothers, then it is safe to say….. We should separate them. Living in the same house can cause more damage to her." He murmured, "I have to speak with Mr Black."
