Noah's POV
My phone has been ringing non stop... Calls from strange numbers, I did not feel like talking so I answered non not until my phone started ringing and this time it wasn't a strange number but Vivienne's number " why is she calling me? What will I say? I was reluctant to answer but I later did
" hello Viv..." I did not even finish talking before I heard Mary's voice
" Noah it's not Vivienne it's me, Mary and we need your help, it's about Vivienne please"
" What happened to Vivienne?" I was not expecting the next voice... Mrs. Andrews spoke this time
" Noah please we need you to come to Lagos, Vivienne is in the hospital and they are trying to stop her bleeding"
" bleeding... I don't understand what is going on?"
" Please can you come to Lagos don't worry about the Transport fare, your flight has already been booked... Please Noah she Needs You"
" Okay I'm heading to the airport now..."
" Your details has been sent check your email"
" Okay"
The call ended and I started to pack up immediately... Just few change of clothes nothing else and I was about leaving the house when George and Dennis came into my room
" You are leaving?" George asked
I couldn't answer I was moving around looking for my stuffs
" Noah slow down, why are you in a hurry to pack up?
" George I can't slow down, Vivienne is in the hospital, the woman I love is in the hospital fighting for her life"
" Vivienne... What's happened to Vivienne? Was she involved in an accident? Dennis kept asking
" I don't know... I don't know I said to Dennis , my flight has been booked by Mrs. Andrews I have to go, I will call you guys when I get there. Please look after my mom and Jenny for me" I said and Left the house.****
I dialed Mary's number when our plane landed to know which Hospital they were at, she sent me the details and wasted no time in heading there.
Reaching the hospital I saw Mary Outside she was crying when she saw she stood up to hug me
" Where is Vivienne?"
" She's still inside with the doctors, she has been Malnourished for days and she lost a lot of blood they are trying their best Noah... We don't know what is going on now inside we are just hoping and praying she makes it" she said
" Don't worry okay she will be fine, Vivienne is strong I am sure she will come out of this stronger" I said comforting her.
We walked into the hospital building and went to where Mrs. Andrews was sitted, she looked lost confused. Her eyes were red and puffy you could tell that she has been crying too. Jason layed his head on her lap and was fast asleep to even know that I was there. It took Mrs. Andrews some minutes to realize that I was standing in front of her.
"Mrs. Andrews I am here" she raised her head to look at me and the first thing she said was
" I am sorry Noah"
" It's okay Ma..."
" No it's not, I am sorry for the way I treated you and Your friends, I just wanted what was best for my daughter, every mother wants it. I am sorry that I did not understand you both and how much you love each other"
" We are bound to make mistakes ma and now is not the time for regrets, let just keep praying that she comes out fine and stronger" I sat next to her to comfort her.
After an hour the doctors and the nurses came out we all stood up eager to know how she is doing
" How is she?" Mrs Andrews asked
" Thank God you brought her in on time, the Goodnews is she is stable now we just need her to rest" the doctor said
The look of worry on our face turned to relief
" Can we see her Now? I asked the doctor
" No... She is sleeping now when she wakes up "
" Okay, thank You doctor.
We were so happy. The Andrews could not hide the joy on their faces... Finally.****
After some hours the Nurse came to tell us that she is awake so the Andrews went in to see her.Vivienne's POV
I slowly opened my eyes when I heard Jason asking my mom If I was going to be okay. I could see the outline of their figures mom looked liked she has been crying and so did Mary
" Have you guys been crying?" I could not recognize my own voice it was croaked and not smooth, It sounded like that of a smoker
" we could not help it, you almost made mom go mad" Mary said she came closer to my bed I knew she wanted to hug me but she couldn't I needed space to breath...
Mom came closer she held my hand and then said the one words I have been wanting her to say
" I am sorry I pushed you hard, I am sorry I never listened to you, I am sorry for everything that has happened, I shouldn't have allowed it to go this far it's all my fault ... Will you ever forgive me? She asked
She was already crying this time and I couldn't stand her cry so I answered with a " Yes I forgive you mommy, but I am not the only one you should apologize too". I told her
" I know that is why I called him to come" she answered
" Who did you call ?"
That was when he walked in " My Noah"
I did not really understand what feelings meant until he walked into my hospital room. Seeing Noah brought a settled feeling within me, my body and soul agreed on this. This is the man I am inlove... He looked bigger and muscular, his growing stubble added more perfection to his silver orbs which I still find attractive. With every step he took, I thought it was a dream, mom actually made him come. He came straight to my bed and kissed me. I miss being in his warm embrace, his lips fitted so perfectly with mine, this is what I have been craving for.
Everyone left the room for us
" I am sorry I left you,I shouldn't have, I am sorry for not telling you about Emily, I didn't know how you would take the information that's why I did not tell you about her. I have cut off ties with her... I am sorry for everything and I am back now " He whispered closely to my ears as I was still in his embrace.
" I Love you" i couldn't help the words as they left my mouth
" I love you too" he responded then he hugged me again.****
I stayed in the hospital for two weeks before I was discharged. Noah was with me through out my stay in the hospital. During my stay in the hospital George, Dennis and Oliver visited me. My mom apologized to them and got them their jobs back or should I say got them a better job. They have their personal houses now. Noah's mom has recovered fully and Jenny his sister has gotten a better job. My mom apologized to the Adams Family and they've become good business partners of course not with marriage as a link of the relationship it is strictly business this time yay! When Noah said Emily is no more part of the picture he actually meant it... She left the country two days after Noah refused to go with her. She is doing well from what I hear.
Things are falling into place and this time Noah and I are not longer a secret. Although I was not proud of what I did but I am happy it actually made everything better. Noah is no longer my driver but my Fiance and Today is my engagement party everyone is already waiting at the hall. I can't believe all this happened within a month. Time actually contains life because whatever will become of a man's life is within time frame and mine has just reflected.
"Vivienne we are late" Mary Shouted from downstairs
" I am coming" I said giving myself a last glance in the mirror
" Finally going to be a Mrs. Noah I smiled at myself before stepping out of the room and closing the door behind me.The End.
