His Mistress

Chapter one.

I was so perplexed when I woke up feeling an acute back pain and a sharp pain on my neck, I held the pamphlet given to me at my school's valedictory service, loosely.

I could remember quite vividly that my parents, Henry and I were involved in a car accident, when I didn't see them in the ward, I felt panicky.

My clumsy fingers were shivering with the pamphlet in my hand, I was trembling real bad.

I clenched my fist to stop myself from trembling but it didn't help in any way, my head was spinning like I was squiffy, the event of my V.S was a blur, my eyes were wandering, it seemed like I was seeing some squiggle signatures.

Many questions began to run through my head;
Could they be in another ward?
Is mom, dad and Henry in the theatre undergoing some surgeries?
Maybe they slightly escaped it and prepping for the dinner party?
Were they dead already?

"No! Damian! No! They can't be!" I screamed at the top of my voice .

Not quite long, I saw someone standing directly at my front, I knew fully well he was a doctor, he was on labcoat, a stethoscope on his neck.

"Hi. Sonny. I'm Dr. Alexanderson" you are?
"I'm Damian Felix. Where are my family?" I asked with an undefined anxiety.
"Calm down Damian. Please we gotta talk in my office right now" Dr. Alex said.

I slouched against the wall, trying to regain my balance. I was still trynna figure out what he was gonna tell me in his office.

Aside from the fact that he was a doctor, facially, he was in his septuagenarian, I stirred my stumps till we finally reached his office.

"You may have your seat, Damian" Dr. Alex said.
I quickly grabbed the castor with the little or no strength I had and then sat down.

"Damian. I'm sorry to disclose to you, we made frantic attempt to revive your parents but I'm sorry, they couldn't make it.

Immediately, my heart began to pound, I could hear the heartbeat, I knew my Blood Pressure rose. I felt an instant sharp pain at the side of my head like I had migraine or brain tumor. I was going stir crazy.
Tears blurred my face.

After a short while, I felt a tap on my shoulder, I turned and it was Dr. Alex.
His mouth was opened, he was about to speak.

"Stop being fretful, Damian. You should be audacious enough. Just be thankful to Miss Mariana who brought you here" he was still trying to offer a few words of comfort when I yelled with tears choking my throat.

"I'd oblige if you save those words. I've lost all I had, Dr. Alex. Just go!" I screamed again. My voice crumbled.
