I saw nurse rushing into my mom's ward , I panicked " What's wrong, why are you guy rushing into my mom's ward" I said panicking , A nurse answered with " She's not responding to her treat, please stay outside while we see what we can do" immediately I called Rose after few min she came running to me "What's wrong" she looked worried I told her everything "Don't worry aunty is going to be fine " she said while comforting me, we saw the doctor coming our way we stood up " Who's Skyler?" He asked " Am sky, how's my mom doc" I said was a low worried voice " I'm sorry Skyler we couldn't save your mom, she's gone my condolences" I passed out.
Every where was white when I opened my eyes, Rose came close to me " How are you feeling now" she asked with consigned "I'm fine, where mum hope she's fine" She kept silent before breaking the news again " Aunty is in a better place" No it can't be, mum won't leave me in the wicked world, tears falls out from eye uncontrollable " Stop crying sky, she left a letter for you" she hands me the letter, I open it.

Leo's POV
I can't focus on work, Skyler face keeps on appearing in my mind, I called aunty Ruby " Hello aunty" I said in a sweet voice " What do you want Leo, you want something from me when you talk to me with a sweet voice" I laughed and smiled " Can I get Skyler address please address" I pleased the line was silent then she spoke up "okay but don't threaten or harm her" my mood brighten "I promise I won't do any harm to her" she ends the call and a text from her poops up, I stood up and grabbed my car keys, heads out to my car pack, drove to the address I knocked on the door a lady opened the door she looks like aunty Ruby " How may I help you" she asked me " Good day, does Skyler live here??" She looks at me for awhile "Yes, come in" she said I stepped inside the house and sat down " Your the guy she slept with right?" with a questioning look "Yes" I answered " Where's she??" I asked "I'm Rose her best friend and she's mourning her mom" with a low voice.
Oh Noo!! She came downstairs, she's looks homeless,lose weight and sad "What are you doing here Leo" She asked me with a sad face "I came to talk to you, I can't in the wrong time, I'm sorry for your lost my condolences" I hugged her she bust out crying holding me tight, I got emotional "Stop crying baby girl, it's okay" I lifts her face stars at her beautiful face kissed her tears ND lips for few seconds "it's all going to be ok, be strong for her okay" I told her some encouraging words, She smiles "Thank you" she whispers I held her hands " If you need anything let me know, I'll need to go now I will visit some other time" pecks her on the lips before leaving.
went home and found Maya waiting for me " Wasssup big bro" she said smiling like a fool " What do you want Maya" was serious face " Kate told me you no longer picks her calls" she said with an angry face " Oh God Maya can you please stop setting us up, I don't like her tell her we can't work I don't involve myself in your love life with Blake so please don't involve yourself in my love life please" I said yelling she was shocked cause this the first time I've ever yelled at her " Okay" immediately she walks out of my room finally some peace and quiet.
The next day in my office I called my best friend Kel " Kel, what can you do to make a woman happy when she's in her lowest" I asked wait for his response " Send her flowers, chocolate, teddy bear etc" I smiled " Thanks kel I won you one, when you're back I'll tell you everything' I ended the call and did as he said after few minutes I received a phone call "Hello is this Leo??" the caller asked I recognized her voice " Yes, who's this" I said while smiling " It's Skyler, thanks for the gifts I really appreciate" with a cute voice " it's nothing, am tried to cheer you up a little and I think it's working" I laughed, there was silence for a few seconds which felt awkward "Thanks again" she said before hanging up. "What now?? should I ask her for a date or is it too early" I asked myself, I was lost in thought.
