A doctor came out of David's room with a smile on his face .
"How's he doctor ?"Mr Joel asked.
"He's fine and out of danger,you can meet him now ."
"That's a relief, is he awake?"Mrs Cooper asked .
"No. he'll wake in few minutes,and when he does be careful not to stress him out because his body is still weak "saying that the doctor left to attend to another patient .Mrs Cooper quickly rushed into David's room and burst out in tears at the sight before her .Her son was connected to a drip, his face was bandaged and there were cuts on his lips .
"Jennie my dear ,since my son has proved how much he loves you ,have you approved of the marriage?"Mrs Joel asked wiping the tears on her face .
Jennie was lost of words and simply nodded her head .
"My daughter,you've made the best decision of your life "Mrs Cooper said and hugged Jennie.
"Yeah ,best decision "Jennie mumbled and disengaged from the hug .
She left the hospital and drove away in her car .She kept stepping on the pedals without bothering to look at the road .Screech!!!!
Jennie came out of the car and saw she narrowly escaped hitting an old woman crossing the road.She apologized and went back into her car .
"The marriage can't be that bad right ? he already proved how much he loves me ,so with time I'll get to love him too and we'll live happily ever after .I just regret it .I regret coming into this country ,accepting the marriage,cancelling the hang out with my friends today ,telling David to jump the cliff just to prove his love to me .ahh!why would he jump that cliff ,what if he'd died?I would have become a murderer.A girl who murdered her fiancee because she doesn't want to get married to him .ugh Jennie how could you have been so stupid .I don't have a choice anyway,am getting married soon .I just have to go with the flow "she wiped her cheeks after the assurance she gave herself then made a u turn and drove back to the hospital,after buying some fruits and provisions for David .
She got into David's room and saw him talking with his parents.Their voices were very low that she couldn't hear them despite being in the same room with them ."What exactly are they talking about that they don't want someone else to hear ?ugh Jennie get yourself together ,since when did you start prying into people's family matters "She thought .
"ahem "
Mr Joel turned and saw Jennie.
"Darling ,Jennie's here.Let's give them some space to have a chat, but you shouldn't talk for a long time ,David still needs to rest "Mr Joel said and left with his wife .
"Hi Jennie"David said
"uhm David , I hope you find a place in your heart to forgive me .I didn't know what came over me I just .."
"Shh,it's alright Jennie am not even angry with you .I did that to prove my love for you and I don't mind doing it again "
"No ,David I won't let you do that again .I've agreed to your marriage proposal.We can get married when you've recovered .Here I got you some fruits ,they'll help in your recovery ".
"That's so thoughtful of you wifey , you just made me the happiest man on earth"David said
"wifey "Jennie mumbled with a bitter smile.
"Excuse me David ,I need to use the restroom"
David nodded and Jennie left for the rest room.
She got into the restroom and burst into tears .How did her life get messed up in two days ?and now she's stuck with a man she has no feelings for ,a man she doesn't even like. Can today get any worse ?.She thought .
She washed her face and applied a little make up on her face before exiting the rest room . She got to David's room and saw him struggling to get a cup of water on the table .She rushed and brought it for him.
"Thanks"David Said with a smile
"Youre welcome"
"Jennie,I just made a call to our event planner and the wedding plans have commenced .I'll be discharged in four days so our wedding would take place in three weeks .I'll get a customised wedding dress for you .I want you to look like the queen you are on that day ,also ...."
"David ,wait wait wait wait,you're rushing this wedding thing .I just accepted you today and wedding preparations have started already? what century are we in ?"
"No wifey ,I've been waiting for this day for a very long time ,besides I talked to our parents and they're happy with the plans .Your mom said she'll take care of the wedding cards. People from all walks of life would be in attendance on that day so it needs to be special ".
"David, I didn't see this coming "Jennie said with a bitter smile .
"It's ok ,you don't need to worry, I'll bear the wedding expenses .You just need to start listing the number of people you want to invite for your wedding wifey .After the wedding we'll make kids that'll looks like us .isn't that wonderful wifey.How many kids do you want us to have ?"
"None" Jennie replied and,walked out of the room
"___"
David picked up his phone can made a call .
"Keep an eye on her ,and if you sense anything suspicious let me know "David said then ended the call.
"hahahaha, Jennie you're mine and mine alone .I'll continue tolerating your stupid attitude but it's gonna end the day we get married .Aren't I the luckiest man on earth?"
The doctor walked inside with a smile on his face .
"I see you're up Lord Sango"
"Of course ,I am .You don't expect me to die by a mere jump, Derek "
"I must say she's quite a handful .who tells a man to jump down a cliff on their date just to prove his love ?" Derek chuckled.
"That's why am the best man for her , have you felt Dracula's presence"David said in a whisper
"No, I think he must have given up on his search "
"That's good because now that I've found her ,am not letting her go "David said as his eyes turned red and his nails started protruding .
"Sango !your bloodlust is leaking out ,you need to control yourself "
"I've always been in control of myself Derek!! "David said returning back to normal .
"That's a relief ,I need to go and check on other patients "
"Am not a patient Derek!"
Derek chuckled and left the room.
