Chapter thirteenDoctor Ogar's POV
**
I could hear my phone ringing repeatedly from the bedroom as I stood showering in the bathroom. I got back from the hospital not long ago before I decided to take a quick shower.
Maybe it's an emergency.
I quickly rinsed the shampoo from my head. Wrapping a towel over my waist,I rushed to grab my phone from the night stand still dripping wet.
What the hell?
I have ten missed calls form Nene when I flipped the screen of my phone on.
I could feel my chest racing as I redialled her Immediately. I have a feeling she is about to tell me something really important.
Gosh....
"I found her doctor" her voice had cried over the receiver the moment she answered.
"What? I mean where? Is she okay?..I mean, are you there with her?" I replied frantically looking for answers.
"Yes...yes but you need to get down here as soon as possible because your daughter needs you sir"
What?
"What's happening to my child? Please tell me she is okay"
I feel more desperate than ever not knowing what could be going on even though she has been found. I don't even know what condition she has been found in.
Damn...
"She is in labor and there is no doctor over here. Please you have to hurry before its too late"
"Tell me exactly where you are and I will be on my way"
"I'll text you the direction and address right away"
Those were her last word before the line went dead.
I continued to pace around waiting for the address. The more I wait, the more restless I feel. My eyes darted around the room in panic before settling on the picture frame on the wall.
It's that of Katherine and her mom when she was just a little girl. I still can't believe she is about to be a mom!
Christ!
My child is in labor pain and needs me and I have to go to her as soon as I can.
I could remember so vividly as if it was just yesterday when my baby was born and I held her in my arms. She was so little and fragile that I couldn't even carry her at first cos I was afraid i might drop her if I try. And when I finally did, it was the best feeling in the world.
Heaven itself was lying in my arms as she continued to make suckling sound with her lips.
It was so late in the night when her mom had went into labor and I had to tend to her myself.
She was so sure she was going to have a baby girl that she didn't allow me to carry out an ultrasound on her when she was pregnant because she already had a feeling her child would be a girl and when she was born, she was a girl indeed.
And when she was born, she held her against her chest with tears in her eyes as she kisses her over and over again.
Seventeen years ago, she was a child herself and hell, she still is to me and now she is about to be a mom!
Dear Lord!
I feel so overwhelmed yet hopeful at the same time. My kitty is gonna be a mom now!

The news of my daughter having been found and also in labor got me driving over the limit as I head over to the address Nene had sent me.
Katherine as been living at Ekpe local Government area of Lagos state all this while and I had no idea. Those people are predominantly fishermen. How did she even managed to survive there all these while.
I guess one can not underestimate someone who is in love.
The drive to Ekpe is taking longer than expected with hold up on the way.
I need to call Nene back to know how she is doing.
She picked on the second ring.
"What's the situation over there right now? Are there nurses around to take care of her?"
"Yes..but they had to put her on hold for now. Seems she is not ready yet"
"Why is she not ready yet? What are they saying?"
"They need her cervix to be 10cm dilated and she is just 8cm" replied Nene sounding more worried.
"I'm on my way...just stuck in traffic but before I get there, I need you to take her for a walk around the clinic to aid her achieve the dilation in time"
"Okay... Right away"
The line ahead seem to be moving but in a slower pace.
Damn it!
