FOR THE SAKE OF KATHERINE(Book 2)√

~Save your child

Chapter forty-seven

Katherine's POV

**

"Please tell me you did not tell your parents you're responsible for my child" turning to obi with a horrified expression.

"The staff nurse thought I got you pregnant when your dad came looking for answers today and when I was confronted; I couldn't deny it" he explained calmly with a shrugged.

"You couldn't deny it you say? Are you out of your fucking mind? Cos you and I both know who is responsible and claiming responsibility for something that is not yours doesn't change the real truth don't you get it?"

"You think I don't know that already?.." Almost whispering.... " what do you think will happen to you and your child when your father finds out who is really responsible"

"Let me worry about that cos this is my life! My decision and not yours to make. I won't allow you to take the blame for something that it's not yours so go out there and tell your parent the real truth or I will. Now go!"

This is worst than I thought! Obi is out of his fucking mind if he even think for a second that he could make my decisions for me. What makes him even consider that darn thing in the first place.

Lavi might beat him to dead if he finds out. Gosh! I don't even own a cellphone anymore.

I need to get out of here as soon as I can cos the moment my dad finds out the real truth; he might go crazy on me and I won't be able to do anything about it being stuck on this damn bed.

"No I can't do it! I'm sorry but I can't tell them the truth. My dad is already speaking with your dad and he has accepted to let you keep the child for now so consider it a favor from a friend to you in other to save your child" gesturing with his hands with a sorry face.

"Why are you really doing this hmm? Are you doing it as a favor to a friend as you say or because of your secret hatred towards Lavi and will want to pay him back by owning what's his"

"Believe it or not! I'm doing it for you because I love you and even if your child is not mine; I still wouldn't allow your dad to get rid of it"

He sounded more sincere than he looked and in as much as I would have loved to kick him out right now,I knew he was right. My dad will kill my child without giving it a second thought. I almost lost it an hour ago. I can't afford another attack now.

I sound crazy I know but I intend to keep my child now and I will do anything to keep us alive.

I don't know how I was even able to survive through that night with obi's mom hovering all over me every damn second. She seem too happy for me to tell her the truth and dad was no longer giving me the cold and hard glare even though I knew for sure that he wasn't entirely happy either.

"Let me know if you feel that cramps coming back okay?" His voice was devoid of all emotions as he spoke to me. He was obviously regarding me as a patient rather than his daughter. He seem more distanced than ever with each passing minute.

"Will she make it out of here before Monday?" Asked obi's father

Everyone is huddle back in the room at this point and all staring at me like a case under investigation.

"Her pulse is normal and her blood pressure hasn't gone up as of yet so we are practically keeping her under observation till the next day" he answered in his most professional voice.

"That's good news my dear. You can still make it back to school for your exams" rubbing his palm together in excitement

I slept through the night under the influence of the medication I was administered with and woke up the next morning feeling much better than the latter. Not even my dad could get aunt Nene to leave my side. Obi mom offered to stay as well but had to leave after much convincing from her husband.

"Thanks so much aunt for loosing your sleep over me" squeezing gently at her hands as she sat beside me on the bed with a wry smile.

"Oh my dear; you know you don't have to thank me for looking after you. My daughter would have been your age if she was still here with me" her voice filled with sadness as she squeeze back at my hand.

I was quite taken back with aunt Nene revelation. I didn't know she has a daughter and besides she has never spoken about her family before.

"Where is your daughter now?"

"She is no more" patting my hand with a sad smile.

Oh no....

"I'm sorry Aunt! What happened to her?"

"It's a long story my dear but I will tell you all about it when we get back home" rising to her feet.

I bet she doesn't want to speak about it. But I do have things to ask her though.

"You heard what obi said last night Aunt. What should I do?"

She thought about it for a while as she continued to stared at me.

"You have to do the right thing my dear" she replied

"But am scared aunt" wiping a weak hand across my pale face.

She sat back down beside me and held my hand with that fire in her eyes burning into mine.

"We are all scared about a lot of things Kate but we don't have to be afraid when we are confronted with the choice to do the right thing by telling the truth" I nodded at her reply as I ponder over her words in my head.

Her words continued to ring in my ear even after she left to get water. I was afraid of telling the truth and loosing my baby as well but after talking to her; I realized there's nothing to be afraid.

I'd tell my dad the whole truth as soon as he walked in through that door. And no matter the outcome,I will face it still

No more lies!
