paradise comes with a Price

Chapter thirty eight

What would I do without your smart mouth?
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
You've got my head spinning, no kidding
I can't pin you down

What's going on in that beautiful mind?
I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me
But I'll be alright

Chapter thirty eight

It’s been thirteen good days and work has already started since then. The meteorology was literally pleasant and constructive here in Lagos, it was mostly raining and kulthum wasn’t an enthusiastic lover of hydrometeor anymore.

As a matter of fact, she doesn’t despise downpour rather she got scared whenever it’s raining due to her late accident. Sithen the time She was paralyzed it would always rain and that would made her recall  her broken pieces which frequently triggered her seizure and she’d fall into a convulsion.

“so, the pregnant women in this town were consulted by Dr. Kulthum herself with the help of the demographic data collection given by the previous team that came before us. She also gave me the list of the alternative of the severe malaria that should be treated aggressively with parenteral antimalarial therapy. Therefore, the manager and the treasurer calculated the funds and it was 5.84 dollars which in Nigerian currency was almost nine million naira” the other doctor in the team presented as he was pointing out from the projector

Khalifa was sitted at the first seat yet his mind was absent from the ongoing presentation. He wasn’t at peace knowing well how and what could trigger kulthum’s illness. Fortunately, the tumor was being operated however the seizures wasn’t guaranteed that It won’t continue to happen.

“sir!” the other doctor called out audibly

He suddenly got startled and looked up to whatsoever was happening in the projector

“As I was saying…..”

Before he proceeded khalifa’s phone ringed and he at once brought the phone to his gaze and scaredly pressed it to his ear

“Si…..r! Sir! I don’t ….know what …..bu” it was the elderly lady who was talking through the phone and that made khalifa stood physically and yelled unintentionally

“Get the goddamn sentence straight!”

“madam dey vomiting foam at the mouth and she dey shake like say she no well like that (madam is vomiting foam at the mouth and she is shaking like she’s not well at all)” the gateman literally was scared from the way he was speaking you will know how startled he were.

“what did you do to her?” he yelled

“okay, I am on my way now and I am calling the ambulance right away. And please make sure she didn’t collapsed on anything that could be of harm”

He cutted the call and dialed Hammad’s contact directly. Within a single ring the call got picked and hammad further out first

“She got an attack, I know. Khairiyya and Nadia are with her right now, they just arrived and they have already contacted the hospital for an ambulance.” he said and the call dropped

“Sir, is everything okay?” the person adjacent to him asked

He nodded and his eyes seemed to be at the edge of shading tears and spoke up   “Kulthum had an attack and she just passed out” his voice was stuttered

He literally was scared but he tried to grasp firmly, therefore he dragged his chair back and hurriedly went out. As he pressed the elevator  pins hammad rushed to where he was standing telling him the cars were arranged already so he shouldn’t drive all by himself.
