Olivia is a young girl of 24 years living in the city of Willowbrook, whose life has been characterized by sorrow, dejection, and poverty. Like every other girl, Olivia has her aspirations, dreams, and fantasies but life had made her doubt those dreams deep in her heart.
Olivia lost her parents at a tender age and has grown up under the care of her maternal grandma. Grandma Lucy worked tooth and nail to see that Olivia graduated college and hope she secured a good job but that was far from reality.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Olivia panted up and down in front of the hospital ward, signs of tears were very visible on her face, her hair was scattered and her clothes were in disorder but she seems not to notice any of this.
Earlier today her grandma slumped and fainted and all means to revive her prove abortive, she was then rushed down to the city hospital. Olivia has been standing in front of the hospital ward grandma lucy was taken to, praying in her heart nothing happen to her.
The door of the ward opened and a middle-aged man walked out wearing a white rope with gloves on his hands.
Olivia rushed to him"Doctor what's wrong with my grandma, tell me she's ok" she questioned rapidly," are you the relative of the patient, pls follow me to my office the doctor replied as he moved towards his office.
Olivia followed him into the office, Dr mark took out his rope and hung it on the clothes shelf in the office, and walked towards the mini-fridge in the office, he took out a bottle of water poured some in two glasses, and handed one to Olivia.
"thank you, doctor Olivia intoned, can you please tell me what is wrong with my grandma, Dr. Mark cleared his throat and began "First you need to put yourself together and be strong as your grandma needs you most at the moment".
"from the test conducted your grandma has been suffering from multiple heart failure which has led to late-stage heart paralysis and if surgery is not done on her in two weeks she will be gone", Dr Mark dropped the bombshell.
"doctor is my grandma going to die, Olivia asked stammering, her hands trembling".
"Doctor, please help me, am an orphan and my grandma is all I have left, pls don't let her die I beg you" Olivia sobbed.
"your grandma is not going to die" Dr Mark comforted her, "you just need to deposit 10 million dollars for the surgery and I promise you a 60 percent chance of her survival," he said.
Losing her grip on his clothes Olivia took a step back with a shivering voice and asked "Doctor you said 10 million what, how, and where am I going to get such an amount in two weeks even in 10 years".
Remember "Your grandma has just two weeks to hold on and every minute counts instead of staying here why not step out to look for the money, you never can tell a good Samaritan might help you out" Dr Mark replied, if you don't mind excuse me I have another patient to attend to, he stood up and left.
