[STORY] Amanda (Episode 15)
Episode 15
Greg darling…’ someone drawled . It was wendy. She looked like a little cat. He felt irritated.
‘What now’? He thought about all he had to deal with; he needed to take a decision before nightfall. Wendy was the last person he wanted to see.
‘What are you doing here’? Wendy inched closer to him.
‘Wendy? What are YOU doing here’? He asked in return.
‘I am pregnant, people like us visit the hospital often’ her hands instinctively went to her belly.
‘Oh’ Greg’s face paled as he remembered this other problem.
‘That reminds me, I have a gift for you, you’re going to love it’ she fetched an envelope from her bag and gave it to him.
‘What is this’? He stared at the black and white diagram, it wasn’t making any sense to him.
‘Our baby dummy! This is my first ultra scan’ Wendy was quite excited about it.
‘Wow’ blood drained from Greg’s face, so he was really going to be a father?
‘Yea right? This is awesome, we should celebrate’ Wendy suggested.
‘ I wish I could Wendy, but I have a lot on my plate right now; when I am free, we’ll meet up and talk about the baby’ Greg replied.
‘Are you f—–g kidding me? This is our baby! You should show more excitement’ Wendy threw at him.
‘Nathan hit somebody; I brought her to the hospital’ Greg explained.
‘Oh my God, Nathan? Was he drunk or something’? Wendy realized why he was acting this way.
‘I don’t know, I am really sorry Wendy, I’ll call you when I have time’ he placed a light kiss on her lips and rushed out of the building.
He needed to get away from her; he needed to be far from his father, Nathan; from everyone.
‘Goodbye Greg, soon we will be a family and I wouldn’t have to miss you this much’ Wendy smiled and watched his back as he left.
The moment Amanda replied her text, she sighed a breath of relief knowing very well that her friend was okay.
She was going to spend a few days at the hospital and she would be needing her things; so she had summoned courage and gone over to the house.
‘Oh my poor baby, is she gonna be okay’? Tears rushed down Mrs. Atkins face.
‘I am so sorry Mrs Atkins; Amanda will be fine; would you speak to her’? Alex quickly dialed Amanda’s number and gave the phone to her mother.
She watched as the woman cried while receiving the call; her heart seared but she felt happy that her friend had not lost her life in the accident.
‘She is fine. From the way she spoke, I believe you’ Mrs. Atkins sighed with relief once she was done speaking with her daughter.
‘I have to go now, I’ll be back to check up on you late’ Alex pecked her swiftly on the face and dashed out of the house.
She couldn’t wait to see her friend; they had a lot to discuss. She had not forgotten about the job interview; no matter what happened between Greg and her, she still needed the job even though that possibility was now dim.
She had asked Morgan to put in a good word for Amanda to Greg; she knew Amanda had so much dreams and talents; she needed that job to work on them.
‘Amanda Atkins’ she stated the name of this patient she wanted to see.
‘Room 49’ the nurse gave her clearance.
‘What took you so long’? Amanda smiled as Alex sauntered into her room. ‘Hope mom is not too worried’
‘ Nah, she’s fine.I got your clothes, nightdress and food, see? Your favorite’ Alex lifted a bag of potato chips.
‘Give me that’ Amanda grabbed it from her and straightened on the bed.
‘It smells awful in here’ Alex wrinkled her nose.
‘Yes, I hate hospitals, but I don’t have a choice, that guy hit me’ Amanda rolled her eyes. She had not even taken time to have a good look at the driver.
‘Nathan’ Alex said his name.
‘What’? Amanda was confused.
‘That’s the name of the guy that hit you; Morgan told me he is Greg’s younger brother’ Alex explained the connection.
‘Oh, I see, crazy runs in their family’ Amanda rolled her eyes.
‘Okay, you need to stop right there, Greg is still your boss’ Alex pointed out.
‘Boss? Hell no, I am never working for that crazy brute’ Amanda snapped.
‘Why’? Alex widened her eyes.
‘Such a man could sexually harass me; he is not safe to be with’ she replied.
‘Really? I talked to Morgan, he assured me that Greg couldn’t have sent such an obscene note to you and maybe there was a misunderstanding somewhere; he even told me you’re not Greg’s spec’ Alex explained.
‘Okay, enough of this spec thing! Whose side are you on? Mine or Greg’s’? Amanda was getting pissed off.
She suddenly lost her appetite as she recalled the mocking glare of his chestnut eyes when the doctor had called her his girlfriend.
‘Okay! But you still need that job anyway’ Alex reminded her of what was important.
‘Nah! I can get myself another job within two weeks. Once I am fully recovered, that’s my next agenda’ Amanda’s appetite fled as she thought of the prospect of job hunting afresh.
