FIVE SCARS OF OLIVA

Chapter 24

I arrived at Nickson's house as he directed me. It was big and stylish, many people gathered on his big garden. I stood unguarded in front of my car and it did not take long till Justa came to me

"Oliva.. woow!" she shouted

"Hi Justa, you look beautiful" I greeted her

"Oliva.. you are the icon of the party tonight, you are our star today.. you look so perfect" She didn't waste a second without looking at me "Come let me take you to Nickson, he has been talking about you all the time today" she grabbed my hand

I saw Nickson talking to his friends and he really looked handsome..

"Nickyyy" Justa called his brother

"Tell me.." He turned to look at his sister and his mouth went wide suddenly when he saw me.. "Lord! Oliva.. you look like a snack"

"Thank you Nick" I smiled

"Come I need to introduce you to my friends, they'll love to see you" He said as he grabbed my hand

"Good luck guys" Justa waved her hands to us

"Guys.. this is Oliva.. she is new my friend" He introduced me to them

"Wow.. Oliva it is nice to meet you, you are indeed beautiful" I smiled as one of his friends complimented me

"So let the party begin.." Nickson said with excitement as if I was the person he was waiting for.. "Oliva lets go in front, you are my date tonight" He smiled as he held my hand to the main table which was properly decorated with six tempting cakes.

All the people at the party cheered loudly as we sat down at the stage, I was so excited and the night was running smooth than I expected. Finally the moment I had waited for the entire night came.. "cake time" my subconscious was excited as well. We stood up to cut the cake while people were cheering loudly.. we held the knife in the air to cut the cake and sudden dizziness washed my entire body and before I knew it I was already unconscious

Nickson's POV

I stood terrified looking at unconscious Oliva lying on the ground, the knife fell down before I realized it. I came back to my senses as soon as possible and lifted her up from the ground.. she had to see a doctor as soon as possible. I thought it was her sickness that the doctor told me previously and I was so scared. I arrived at the hospital and she was taken by nurses into an emergency room, the doctor came out and called me to his office

"How is she doing?" I asked as I sat down helplessly

"She is still unconscious but she is fine" He assured me

"Is her problem becoming serious?" I had no other option than to ask about that

"It is not about her previous problem this time" He responded

"What?" I was shocked.. " Then what is the problem?"

"You said you are not her boyfriend right?" He asked

"Yes.." I was extremely uneasy

"Is she married maybe?" He asked

"No.. I guess not" I sounded sad

"I need to talk to her boyfriend then.. contact him for me or any other close relative" He asked

I searched my phone for Oliva's mother because she was the only close person I knew about. I explained to her about what happened earlier, she was so shocked and promised to be there within few minutes. I decided to wait for her outside the doctor's room, thank God she arrived earlier than I expected and we entered the doctor's room

"Doctor, this is her mother" I began

"I know her.." He answered

"What happened?" She asked

"Do you know your daughter's boyfriend?" He asked her a question I least expected

"A boyfriend? No.. she does not have any" She responded confidently

"Well... your daughter happens to be four months pregnant" He said calmly

"What!" She stood up in shock while my mouth fell open in ultimate wonder

"That is why I asked if you knew her boyfriend" He elaborated

"Noo! This can't be happening to my daughter, why does she always have to go through the rough path!" She cried so much till I felt bad for her.. "Oliva will kill herself doctor, please abort it before she wakes up"

"What?" I and the doctor said in unison, it is something we least expected from her

"Please!" She cried loudly

"She is not in a good position for abortion, she might die in the process" The doctor explained

"That child will be the baddest thing she will ever possess in her life.. please do anything.. please" She still pleaded

"I'm afraid I can't" He nailed

Oliva's mother cried loudly like she was going to chock off her throat, I felt bad for her and felt the urge to know what was going on but I could not ask her at the moment. Oliva's pregnancy gave me so much thoughts and at some point hurted me, I didn't know why I felt that way but I already knew something wasn't the same in my life.

After some time we were allowed to enter Oliva's room and found her sobbing like it was her last day on earth.
