"We have to get the baby out, if you really want her to live
It's the only choice we have"......I could barely breathe
Why did this have to be now? I thought everything was perfect
"We really have to get to work, with immediate effect"
I looked straight into the doctor's eyes
Wondering if he saw how mine were filled with so much fright
"I need to talk to my wife first. She needs to know before anything is carried out"
"Alright, Mr Ife" . I stood up and walked straight out.
Choriocarcinoma.. that's what the doctor said she has
How could everything be happening so fast
I didn't know how to break this news to Anya
I was sweating so profusely , like I was walking through fire.
I walked into the ward and saw her on the bed
I cleaned my eyes to prevent her seeing how much tears I had shed
As I walked closer to the bed, she slowly opened her eyes and smiled . It was like she felt my presence.
"Hey, my love, how are you feeling?" I gently touched her face and stroked her hair. Goodness! this woman gave me so much essence.
And everything...Every single thing I had done, since the day I met her... was FOR HER
