Diana: Why the hospital babe?
Alfred: I thought only sick people go to hospitals or is the trend changing perhaps?
Alexa: Guys just follow us and see the surprises we are having so that you do not miss out on first hand gossip.
Diana: You know what girl ,in the last few days I have not been with you, a lot has changed I won't be shocked if you told me you also have children as well
Alexa: Perhapssss!!
Connor: You wouldn't mind if we had children would you?
Diana: Are you kidding me right now amongst all of us which people got married first Haaa?
Alexa and Connor: Ofcourse you.
Diana: Right! so I want to let you know that it is totally impossible for you especially Alexa to have gotten pregnant before me knowing you are pregnant and mark you a pregnancy requires a whole nine months for the baby to be delivered unless of course you Alexa are a vampire!
Alexa: Let us wait and watch .Hey people enough with the banter let us all get in our cars and first pass by a supermarket get some nice stuff and also get some packed food to keep us a bit busy as we are in the hospital.
Alfred: Honestly I don't like where this is going,call me a coward but never in my life have I ever stepped in a hospital the last I was there was when I entered this world and that was it. I swore in my life never to embarrass myself while in that place.
Connor: Bro, don't you think you are being abit deep ?
Alfred: Oh no ,not me but you my friend Connor I think we have completely lost touch in each other's lives and I am totally disappointed.
Connor: What do you mean?
Alfred :It's totally fine to be sick whichever disease that is killing you we will find a solution but please don't tell me you are dying soon because it won't sit well with me.
Connor: Hahahahaha! I didn't know you treasured me like this, it is in such moments that you realize who loves you.
Diana: Hahahahahah I can't wait to see the shock in my life.
Alexa: Me too.
Everyone is shocked by Alexa awaiting her shock and a reaction to her words is all the three turning their heads to look at her .
Alexa: What, why are you looking at me like I stole something?
Alfred: It is just that you amaze me .
Alexa: Thanks.
Diana: I don't know maybe we take you to a mental asylum.
Connor and Alexa: Why?
Diana: Well, because one minute you want to shock me the other minute you can't wait to see the shock in my life caused by you, do you get it now?
Alexa: Girl please stop being scientific you know how I always topped in school from behind.
Diana: Don't get me started,oh we are still in a gown and infront of our fake husbands be mindful not to ruin the sparks flying in air .
Connor: hhhahhaaaaa .
Alfred: hahhhhhaaaaa.
Diana: So is the hospital already decorated for the bride and her groom?
Alexa: Why?
Diana Well because it is our reception I thought you might need us to help you with some decorations here and there .
Alexa: No worries , supermarket off we go.
Both couples enter their posh cars to the supermarket but once they are all out, all eyes are on them. Do you know why, it's because of the outstanding outfits which they are also not aware of at the moment because all their minds are on the things they are here to get and then leave. While in the supermarket, a random child pulls at thr mom's dress while the two pairs of friends are getting busy with filling their shopping baskets.
Child: Mommy! Mommy!
Mum: What!
Child: ( points at Alexa) I also want you to get me such a dress right now!
Mum: Well honey, sorry to disappoint you but you are of underage to suit that dress.
Child: Then why is she( points at Alexa) wearing it and am not allowed to ,is it because she is tall with no blood in her body Haaa?
Mum: Maybe!
Alexa is shocked by where the conversation is going which makes Diana to say" girl you might reconsider getting yourself something less eye catching because we do not want to see your wedding party being the reason for arguments between parents and children don't you think?" . Alexa accepts to get her attires changed in a boutique and gets herself a white short dress,armless with white stilletos.
In half an hour, they arrive at mangus hospital and enter a room where they find a little girl like an angel all covered in white bandages but seated on the bed seeming to look for someone and when she notices the people,
Imelda: Mummy and Daddy!
Alfred: What is happening?
Diana: What!
Alexa and Connor: Yes, guys meet our daughter Imelda.
Diana: She doesn't look like any of you .
Alfred: You said my mind however you said it in a rude tone which no one would ever want to use.
Diana: I am not used to being soft and so Incase you are used to sugarcoating,then you have the wrong person.
Alfred: Of course everything was wrong from the beginning.
Alexa: mmmmmm, guys do you realize we are in front of a child?
Diana: I totally forgot .
Alexa: It will take you time to adjust girl but believe me you will get used to calling me mummy Imelda soon and I can't wait to see you doing so.
Diana: Baby, you are gorgeous,wow what is your name?
Imelda: Mummy should I tell her my full name ?
Alexa: Yes please do.
Imelda: My name is Imelda Sanchez.
Diana: Such a sweet name , I love it mwaaa.
Imelda: Thank you .What is your name?
Diana: Oh! I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Aunt Diana .
Imelda: Nice meeting you ,and who is he?( points at Alfred)
Diana: He is Alfred.
Imelda: Nice meeting you Alfred!
Alexa: You are wrong baby he is called uncle Alfred okay, only adults call others by their names.
Imelda: Sorry , mummy.
Alexa: Mummy forgives you .
Alfred: Imelda, nice meeting you .
Imelda: Thanks uncle.
Imelda: Daddy are all these things you have brought with you mine and mine alone?
Connor: Can you finish all of them ?
Imelda: I have a very big stomach but I can't finish all of them .
Connor: We can eat some and leave some .
Imelda: All of us?
Connor: Yes.
Imelda: With uncle Alfred, Aunt Diana, mummy and you?
Connor: Yes please.
Imelda: yay! yay! What about Sonia?
Connor and Alexa: Who is Sonia?
Imelda: My friend at the place you had left me.
Diana: What is she talking about?
Alexa: She is talking about the orphanage, Diana.
Alfred: I had this strong feeling that she wasn't yours but I just didn't want to ask further for fear of ruining the wedding mood but good you spoke before I asked.
Connor: I never doubted your intelligence but I almost did because you never asked any question out of the box and I thought today I totally had you.
Alfred: No, Connor, I do have sense and above all emotional intelligence so credit me for that.
Alexa: People make yourselves comfortable and let us feast on what we have and call it a day.
Diana: Now you are talking where are we to start from ?
Alexa : Anywhere.
Plates in the room are heard clicking along with forks and glasses. Alot of noise is heard in the room that one could actually think there is no patient in the room.
And while at it, a nurse knocks on the door and alerts all the people in Imelda 's room to keep it down with the noise as there are still people in other rooms that are sick and require a noise free environment. Alexa apologizes and excuses herself to use the rest room where she encounters her friend Diana.
Diana: Be open to me ,Is this marriage of yours a forced one?
Alexa: Why?
Diana: Because I know for a fact that you and Connor only met at my celebration for the first time and please don't lie to me because am no child.
Alexa: Ofcourse there is nothing to hide .
Diana.Okay., but....
Alexa: Well we got married to give Imelda a stable family since Connor couldn't adopt her as one parent .Of course you understand what I mean don't you?
Diana: Okay, I get but does uncle and aunt know of this new drama of yours.
Alexa: Thank God you asked.THEY ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS until I feel ready to let them know ohhhh you have reminded me ,I really do have to organize my lies so well because these people aren't stupid.
Diana: You see, that is why I am your best friend I mean one has to be stupid and another brilliant to neutralise the friendship equation.
Alexa: 100% right .
Diana: I just hope of all the things you are to encounter good or bad, you put your self above all others needs alright?
Alexa: Yes mom
Diana:youuuuuuu, look at you, do I have wrinkles haaaaa to call me mom?
Alexa: You are still so beautiful like you used to be from the time we were young and I don't even know how Alfred copes up with your beauty , arrogance and shamelessness.
Diana: He is no man.
Alexa: That is a very huge word you might have to swallow when he wraps you around his finger.
Diana: You wish.
After the girly conversation alot of fun is had with the little one and the day is a beautiful one to remember for all those that have attended .
