Hazel's POV
I sat before a wall size mirror as the Doctor slowly took off my bandages,
Unable to stop my heart from raising.
You can open your eyes now.
All the fear evaporated from my lungs as I stair in awe at my reflection,
I still look just like my old self except for some few changes.
But my bruised face was completely healed,
Not that am exaggerating but I look even prettier,
You look beautiful my dear the middle age woman compliments and hugs me tightly.
Thank you mam.
No matter how hard I try to stop my tears they just won't stop flowing
Thank you so much sir,
I don't know how am ever going to repay you in this life,
But I will work very hard to pay every dine you spent on me.
His smile was so pure that it melted even the strongest of hearts
I couldn't help but hug him in appreciate.
Here are some painkillers and vitamins.
They will be good for you and your baby.
His words left me breathless as my heart races with anticipation.
"Baby.....
What baby are you talking about Doctor
You are 2 weeks pregnant miss Emily.
Huff I sign in relieve when he called me Emily, that only means he mistook me for pregnant miss Emily.
Am not Emily Doc,
My name is Hazel.
He looked at me confused.
Miss Emily or miss Hazel you are two weeks pregnant.
And I advise you take alot of rest,
Avoid any form of stress.
I stood at the same spot watching as the Doctor disappears from the mansion.
Why did he call me Emily and what is he talking about.
I can't be pregnant,
Am not pregnant.
Emily please calm down...
My name isn't Emily,
Am Hazel, my Name is Hazel
Anger confusion panic was all am feeling at the moment.
What is going on here,
Why are you people so good to me and why is everyone calling me Emily.
Calm down or you will hurt your baby
The elderly man said with genuine concern.
What baby.... I don't want anybaby.
Mam please take this baby away I don't want it
I don't want anything that is connected to those evil people
I break down in tears as my heart breaks for the hundred time.
Calm down Emily we are here with you now and we won't let anything happen to you, nobody is going to hurt you ever again,
She holds me tightly as I cry my heart out.
We settled at the sitting room when I was finally calm.
I found you unconscious 2 weeks ago and brought you to my home because you were in a very critical condition,
Doing your treatment my wife noticed a birthmark on your back that looked exactly like that of our long lost daughter.
So out of curiosity we decided to perform a DNA test on you and the results came back positive, the Elderly man handed a piece of paper to me.
No this can't be happening.
My father told me I was abandoned in the city orphanage by a strange woman,
"Our daughter was taken away from us when she was just a month old the woman said as she sobs uncontrollably.
And we have been searching for here all this years
And finally Faith brought you back to us.
You are our Emily,
Am so sorry.... Emily was the name I and your father gave you.
She handed pictures of me when I was still a baby.
I look at the pictures in disbelief.
Am sorry but I can't accept this ..... I need time to think.
Take all the time you want dear we will be right here waiting for you.
Her sad face hurts me deeply but all this is just too much for me to accept.
I hurried upstairs and looked myself in the room and cry myself to sleep.
Hazel I gasp as I hear a familiar voice, I turn to the direction of the voice.
Mother....
Is that really you,
She nods with a bright smile and wrap her hands around my neck.
I thought those monsters killed you,
Am so sorry I left you behind.
It was the right thing to do Hazel,
I see you found your real family.
You and Father are the only family I have mother I don't want another family.
We will always be your family Hazel, but they are your family too,
Do you know how hard it is to lost a child,
You should give them a chance,
Give them the opportunity to love their child,
But mom I want to be with you and daddy.
We will be together again Hazel, take the second chance life is offering you and live it to the fullest,
That baby in your womb isn't a curse but a blessing from God, treasure that blessing with your life.
We will always love you Hazel. And always know you are not alone.
Mom please don't leave me..... Don't go please.... Mother....
Mis Hazel are you alright, Lizzy taps me on the back as I panic in fear.
Were you having a nightmare
She asks concerned
I saw my mother.....
I gently squeeze my tommy as I drown in thoughts.
