chapter fifty seven
Two hours later
"He will be fine,will let you guys know when they are done with the surgery" Hazel said and they left the hospital.
"I will be her godmother," Jasmine said, referring to the baby and Charlotte smiled. She is so understandable.
"Do you think Alex will be happy I still have the baby?" Charlotte asked jazz with a worried look.
"He should be and if he isn't we are here for you bestie" she said and waved Charlotte good bye and now she is left with Hazel.
"I hope he loves you and you can change his heart completely" she told her and Hazel turned red completely.
She could feel the weird and strong connection between Andrew and her. A girl once in love will know that. She recoiled on her first meeting with Hazel and smiled.
"It's almost three hours,why is there no news about him yet?" Hazel said worriedly.
"Maybe we should check" they tried entering but were stopped.
"Only nurses on duty are not allowed in here ma'ams" the security at the door said.
"But" Hazel quickly shut her up.
"Okay let's go Charlotte" she said and quickly pulled Charlotte along with her.
"What's going on?" She asked with a frown.
"Let's get change into nurses' uniform instead of arguing with them" Charlotte nodded and they left for another ward to get change. They changed into nurse uniforms and carried a tray with some medical kits.
"Three,two,one,let's go" Charlotte said and they both ran inside before the security could stop them. It was a different ward entirely.
"That way" Hazel said and they ran inside Andrew's ward.
"Death time,3:40pm" one of the surgeons said and another wrote it down. The doctors looked up and one was about talking but Charlotte beat him to it.
"Whose death time did I hear you just recorded?" Charlotte said, moving closer to them.
"What are you doing here?" One of them asked instead and the ladies glared at them all.
"Answer her question first…whose death time was that you just recorded?" Hazel said in a thunderous voice that sent cold shivers down their spines.
"Mr Andrew Kenneth's" one of them said trying to sum up courage. The ladies looked like they would rip them to pieces with their faces.
"Are you guys insane!Three world best doctors from different countries and you still let him die?" Charlotte was going crazy. She is going but the same as Hazel.
"We are sorry masks but we only treat,we believe God cures" the doctor said.
"And besides,he signed 50 percent whether the surgery is successful or not," another added.
"!' Hazel screamed. Charlotte couldn't cry. Is that how people died? The person she talked to less than three hours ago. This ain't happening. She stared at him but he was covered up with a blanket. She raised up the cloth and that long lashes were resting on his eyelids.
" This was never how we planned it, Andy. No! You're breaking your promise Andy" Charlotte said, weeping. Reality began to dawn on her. He is truly dead. She took his hands and tenderly kissed it.
"Please wake up Andy…you promised to father Hayden…please Andy you can't do this to me" Hazel cried really hard.
Some people came in afterwards dressed in blue.
"Take him to the mob" a doctor said and they nodded. Hazel ran to the doctor who just talked and held him by his collar.
"What did you do to him?" She screamed and the security tried separating them from choking him to death.
"I can't believe you can do this to me Andrew" Charlotte said softly and turned to walk out but something held her hand. She looked back in shock and saw Andrew dropping his hands with a smile on his lips.
"He is awake…he just moved his hands!" She shouted and the doctors stared at her like she was crazy.
"I said he is breathing" she shouted again and they all shook their heads.
"You're hallucinating ma'am" a doctor said, testing him with a .
"Are you crazy…i said he just moved his hands" Charlotte screamed at them and all they could do was shake their heads in pity.
"She is going crazy," one of them said.
"Take the body away" another said and they wheeled the body but Charlotte stopped them and tried touching Andrew's body. A doctor signalled to one of the who held her till the corpse was wheeled out of the ward.
"Sir please try to believe me…i'm sane.he held my hands. Believe me Hazel Andrew is not dead" she screamed.
Charlotte fell into deep sleep immediately after she was injected.
"Are you crazy? She is with the baby and you just injected her" hazel screeched at them.
"I've had enough of your drama today young lady,please lead her out" he told the securities.
"Ma'am please" they said and she nodded and walked out sadly.
She got to her apartment and allowed the tears to flow freely. Andrew is gone just like that. How is she going to even explain that to Hayden? That his new dad was taken away by God again? This isn't happening. She can't tell him. Heck! She doesn't even have the courage to.
She checked her wristwatch and saw it was past five already. The school bus would have dropped Hayden with their neighbour whose children go to the same school with Hayden. She went to the wash room and rinsed her face then applied eye drops which just helped her reddened eyes a little. She packed her scattered hair neatly and off to pick Hayden.
She puts on a fake smile and Hayden, sighting her, looks away. It's not possible he would have heard about it right? She thought of saying a short prayer.
"We don't know what's wrong with him but he has refused to play with us and has been moody even in school" Regina,his classmate said and that got Hazel more worried. She bent down to his level and stared at him.
"What happened? You looked like you've been crying?" Hazel asked.
"Same as you" he replied softly and she put on another fake smile.
"Oh nothing, let's go home" she rushed her word and they left.
"Hayden what really happened?" Hazel asked immediately if she finished helping him with his assignment.
"Today marks two months since my parents left me" he said sadly and Hazel hugged him.
"It's alright" she consoled.
"So what happened to you too?"
"Oh nothing, sand got into my eyes,you must be hungry now…give me some seconds" she changed the topic and scurried off to the kitchen.
Charlotte woke up after a few hours.
She stared at the ceiling for a while then it dawned on her. She is in the hospital. She recoiled and winced in pain falling back on the bed. She stared at her hands only to realise it was chained to the bed.
What the f!ck. She laid back on the bed and tried remembering all that happened. Was she hallucinating? No she doesn't hallucinate. But they tested him again and confirmed him dead. Maybe it was his spirit that touched her.
She was lost in thought when the door creaked open.
"Oh you're awake…finally" a nurse said with a smirk on. She is pretty sure she knows her somewhere but where?
"Which hospital am I?" She asked, ignoring the level smirk she has on. This isn't the right time to beat up some random b*tch. She thought to herself.
"Oh that…you're in Andrew's psychiatric hospital" she smiled sweetly at her.
Heck! She was going to sue those doctors. F!ck them all.
"Can you at least removed this chain? I was never in my wrong senses" Charlotte managed to say and she stared at her angrily.
"How I wish you were…first it was Donald then Alex and now it's Andrew. You kept on drawing them away from me. How can you be so cruel?" She glared at her and Charlotte kept on staring at her like she had gone nuts.
"Answering you is like petting a mad barking dog, it will end up biting its helper and the last thing I want is being bitten by a b!tch like you so I will just reserve my comment" she said calmly but she heard her anyway.
"What did you just say!?" She said angrily in gritted teeth. The look on her face was so priceless and at the same time funny. She suppressed her laughter with a smirk.
"Now you've not only become a mad barking dog but also a deaf one" Charlotte added and she growled looking more uglier. Now she remembered her. It was the lady that dragged a gown with her at the mall when she went out with Alex and Emma.
"You know what? I'm done listening to the nonsense you're sprouting out of your mouth…my mission here is to inject you with this and flushed that stupid thing you called a baby" she said showing Charlotte the injection in her hands and Charlotte became scared all of a sudden.
"God help me" she whispered as the lady moved the injection nearer to her.
