A Symbol Of Our Love

Chapter 6

Joy's Pov

I woke up on the second day of my stay at the hospital feeling much better. Truth be told, I was having much better food and care here. Thanks to Enoch. Speaking of the devil...

The door opened to reveal Enoch. He walked closer to my bed and placed the bag of shopping on my bedside table. "Good morning!" He said turning to face me. Why was he being so nice to me?

"Morning!" I replied. The door creaked open again to reveal a creature I had really missed. "Brian!" I practically squealed.

"Yes, tis me! Are you guys done kissing good morning?" he asked. Typical Brian. I was now blushing but something in Enoch's glare told me he hadn't forgiven me yet or he would never forgive me. Ouch! I totally deserved that.

"In totally unrelated news, the doctor says you can now go home," Brian said trying to diffuse the tension that was now so thick, one could cut through it with a knife. Well finally! I thought to myself as I sat up.

"Not so fast ninja!The doctor has to discharge you himself!" Enoch said.

After a lot of testing on my part and a lot of paperwork thankfully done by Enoch I was finally discharged. "That sure is a pain in the ass!" Brian grumbled about the paperwork.

"Actually this was way easy for us because I work here," Enoch said and it sparked a conversation between the two but I shut my beak because what do I know about people getting discharged. We got to the parking lot and I figured he'd just call an uber. Or not because he just pulled car keys from his pocket.

"Aaaaw... you rented a whole freaking car? You didn't have to. I'm pregnant not lame! I can still do PSV," I said and Brian laughed.

"Oh! You think that's rented?" Brian said pulling out his car keys. Ok, what was happening with these boys? I was only gone for like three months. They were definitely a good influence on each other.

The drive to town and to South B -where I now lived- which was almost a forty minute drive was quiet and filled with tension since Brian had gone. The drive was even longer since there was a lot of traffic jam and I ended up sleeping. This pregnancy was really hard on me. I slept a lot especially in the morning,which it was so... Either I was dreaming or Enoch adjusted my seat so I could be more comfortable in my sleep. He woke me up like an hour later to ask me for directions.

I can't believe Vivian actually paid an uber that far just to get me into trouble.

"Well I can! Have you met the girl?" Enoch answered. Did I just say that aloud or was Enoch reading my mind? I decided to go with the first one. I also decided to not reply to that. I was so gonna get it later when we got to the house.

We got to my place and as I struggled to get out of the car Brian's car or an identical one pulled over behind us. Yap, twas Brian! I led the way and they carried all the bags from the hospital,most were shopping bags but one was some clothes that Vivian had brought me the previous day. Boy was I glad they did all the carrying, it was a long way on foot because the cars couldn't fit. Anyway, it's not like I wasn't carrying something... I smiled at the thought as I looked down my belly.

We got to where I stayed and immediately I opened the gate people were flooding me and asking me a million questions. I had apparently been taken to the hospital with a scene. But then again tis Vivian so... Most of them now knew that I was pregnant which would hurt me in some sector but with my pregnancy heading to six months soon, they would eventually have found out.

I tried making my conversation with the neighbours as short as I could because I had a feeling that Enoch was not feeling very patient.

"Welcome in boys!" I said relieved that Vivian had arranged the house. She was the more organised one between the two of us. Speaking of Vivian, she was already in the house. I hadn't even thought of the fact that I didn't have the keys to my house. Had my house even been locked the whole time I was in the hospital?
