Lovable Zainab

Chapter 44

Zainab's POV.

I glared at the the lady in blue scrubs. She is laughing at my condition which I don't find funny. I know my rights, I was taught human rights in secondary school and one of the right I have as a human being is freedom of movement and this means I can walk freely, I can move freely, I have the right for locomotions. I just don't get why the nurse won't let me leave this hospital I have foot the bills then why am I still being held in.

"Listen here nurse gayu I need to be out of here if not I'll be sick again. I don't want to lay in again."

"Calm down miss Zainab haba! Let your brother come first before we discharge you." The nurse tried to reason with me.

I know hospital staffs are scammers. The more they keep you the more your bill increases. It's not fair I feel fine already they said they have to wait for my guardian which is Ahmad what did they take me for an under 18. It's not right at all.

"I really need to go home nurse gayu I need to take a long bath so I can be clean again." I pleaded with her again.

"You are clean Zainab."

"No I'm not. I have this foul odour coming from my body can't you perceived it please let me go homeeee."

"Stop persisting it's the doctor in charge that will tell determine when you'll be discharged." The nurse said taking an injection from her kit

The last injection she gave me still hurt I don't think I can take another one.

"I'm fine nurse gayu Its not necessary for me take anymore injections." I tried to reason with her.

She shook her at me while adjusting the needle. "First of all my name is not gayu it's Vicky, now show me your ass or else I'll call the male nurses to come hold you down i'm sure they'll enjoy a brief view of your pretty butt."

I gasped. She wouldn't do that? When I say nurses are evil they won't believe me can you see how nurse gayu is threatening me.

"I don't want this injections." I Protested

"I don't care about what you want Zainab I'm going to inject you no matter what so show me your butt."

"But I don't want to." I whined.

"I have other patients Zainab if you leave here I'll call nurse Faruk to give you the injections so work with me here."

I don't know who nurse Faruk is. All I know is that he's male and I don't want any man giving me injections so I conceded and allowed nurse Gayu to give me the shot.

"That wasn't so bad was it?" She gave me victory smile.

"I'm hungry."

"That's not my problems. Enjoy the rest of your stay."  She grin wickedly at me.

I watched as left swaying her hips. That's why I call her nurse gayu she is one nurse who likes attention her face is always filled with heavy makeup, expensive watches. She's searching for husband that's why her uniform is tight and her wig is very long, with the make up on her face I'm reminded of an hyena but i won't tell her that.

Boredom and I have never really settled. We have our differences. I feel bored staying alone in this hospital no one to talk to, no phone to keep me company infact for the almost a week now I don't know where my phone is who knows if I have lost it.

I'm sure many people have tried to call me. Ahmad told me my parents think I'm still trying to recover from a broken heart that's why my number is unavailable but the truth is that I was recovering from typhoid. I made Ahmad promise not to tell our parents that I was sick because if he does it means my mother would come to Abuja to check on me because they'll be too worried.
