After getting the news of my pregnancy, I didn't know what to do. So I went to my room And cried myself to sleep.
I didn't know How long I had slept, But when I woke up, the rays of sunlight had peeked through my curtains.
I was sure that I would certainly have black circles as I had cried so much last night. I didn't even want to think about Ruca, but there was nothing I could do,he was my first love.
The noise of my tummy rumbling woke me up from my day dream.
"Now, I also had a cutie to care for." I giggled as I rubbed my tummy.
" Mommy won't keep you hungry.* I said while giggling.
..............
"Morning aunt. " I hollowed as I rubbed my sleepy eyes while coming down the stairs.
When I got no answer, I suddenly paused.
" Aunt." I called without any response.
Now, I was very worried, I knew that aunt had been very stressed lately because of her many partime jobs and I didn't want anything to happen to her.
I know that she wasn't supposed to do anything that would stress her, but she wouldn't have any of it.
I quickly hurried down the stairs as I wanted to see if whether she was in the kitchen or, she was just showering.
As I went down I met the shock on my life as I saw Aunt On the floor .She was looking so weak and pale,and She was bleeding from her nose.
My whole world stopped. I had already lost my mother, My father ,My sister And now I can't lose the only person in my life.
My instincts kicked in as I ran to aunts motionless body. Her breathing had become very shallow and I was scared to death.
I began to shake her,She Didn't respond. I quickly called Litzy, as I didn't know what to do. Litzy arrived as soon as possible while I put A wet store on aunt's forehead.
We rushed Her to the hospital. When we got there, she was rushed into the ICU and I stayed outside crying my heart out while litzy tried to console me.I couldn't stop blaming myself, everything was all because of me.
We waited till noon before the doctor Came out with the test results. I quickly dried up my tears and rushed up to him.
He had Long face,and without Wasting of time,I Immediately ran to him to ask him what state my aunt was in,I prayed it was nothing serious.
He looked very sorry as I could see Pity in his eyes. He asked me where her husband was and I told him that she was a Widow and she had only me.
He then broke the news to me,she was suffering From Ovarian cancer. I broke down.
He said that she Had been through so much stresa and She was in the final stage. If I couldn't Provide money within one week, She could not be saved.
"How much is needed." I asked,fear evident in my voice.
" 300 000 Dollars." He answered.
