My Knight: Dakota's Second Chance

CHAPTER 27

“Miss Muller you are lucky that whatever happened didn’t cause any strain in your body. But please, you need to take it easy. You know how critical your condition is. Nothing bad happened, you are just too stressed. We will have to keep you overnight for observations and also monitor your blood pressure because it is too high. If something like this happens again, I will have no choice but to admit you. Please don’t force me to do that.” the doctor says removing his glasses and looking at me. I sigh and nod.

“I hear you doctor.”

“Good. Now please relax and rest. We will do another ultrasound tomorrow to ensure that we didn’t miss anything.”

“Thank you.” he nods and then heads out. I turn to Ndabe. He is standing facing the window with his hands on his pockets. “Babe.” He turns to look at me for a nanosecond before turning to stare outside the window.

“I am not a bad person, Dakota. But I don’t play when it comes to my children. I did tell you that I don’t care if your family talks shit to me but if their actions harm my child in any manner, we are going to have a problem. I don’t mind making enemies for my children’s safety. I would even commit treason for them.” he says coldly and I almost run out because his voice is so thick and scary.

“Babe, please relax. Our child is safe and healthy. Nothing is going to happen to her and I will have a safe delivery. Now how about you go get me something to eat in the meantime because I am super hungry?” he looks at me and then sighs.

“What do you want to eat?”

“Surprise me.” he chuckles.

“I will see you in a few minutes.” He comes to perk my lips, kisses my bump and then heads out. I breathe out loud and take my phone. I dial dad’s number and it takes him a few rings to answer.

“Muller, hello.”

“I don’t even care that you have deleted my number. I just want to tell you that your sister almost killed my child today with her words. Even if we were to reconcile in the future for whatever reason, I don’t want her anywhere near me and my family. I am officially disowning her. Because of her, I am lying at a hospital bed this moment. Please pass that message to her.”

“Dakota…”

“That’s all Mr. Muller. Bye.” I hang up and huff.

He calls me back and I just reject his call. He sends me a message. ‘In watter hospitaal is jy? (Which hospital are you in?)’ I just ignore his message and inform Ma’Khanyi about my whereabouts but don’t explain what happened. She asks where I am at and I tell her the name of the hospital. My phone rings and I smile when I see who is calling. She left two days ago with her small family. I know I didn’t see them every day but knowing that they are hours away from us makes me miss them so much. Especially the savage Yamihle with endless requests and pleas.

“Sis Lwah.”

“OMG! Are you okay? I have seen the video. No scratch that, videos. What that aunt of yours did was unforgivable. She made me wanna hitchhike a flight to Jozi instantly.” I frown.

“Where did you see the video sisi?”

“You are trending. All over the internet. There is a racists’ battle on twitter and your race seems to be losing. It’s not going well for your aunt. I think people are going to cause more than just a cyber-attack towards her. I am suspecting a physical attack because the words she was directing to Mpisi were harsh and very personal.” I sigh.
