A CHANGE - CHAPTER 20
🦋 I’M HIS GIRLFRIEND 🦋
The crowd moved their attentions to Kingsley immediately as they stare at him in pity.
A young lady stepped out of the crowd and check his breathing with her hand on his nose whilst the crowd watches her curiously. She withdrew her hand.
“Is he dead?” A lady amongst the crowd demanded.
“He lost consciousness, maybe he is not feeling that good” Catherine replied.
“Someone should call the ambulance please, let’s get him to the hospital before it gets worst” Catherine stated.
Almost immediately, an ambulance arrived.
“Wow! Who called the ambulance now” Catherine muttered.
“I did” A lady said while Catherine flashed him a smile as Kingsley was taken into the ambulance.
“Who will go with him? Or is none of his relatives here?” A man amongst the nurses demanded.
“I will go with him” Catherine volunteered.
“Are you his sister?” The man demanded.
“Hmm yeah” Catherine replied and the man nods his head as Catherine board the ambulance with them.
It wasn’t long when they arrived at the hospital as Kingsley was rushed into the emergency ward as the doctor tried to revive him.
Catherine stayed outside his ward pacing up and down.
PEARL’S LITTLE HOUSE
Pearl got home so tired and hungry.
“Seems all my customers are going crazy, like what the f_ck is hard for them to assimilate that things are now cost” she muttered opening the door.
She was surprised not to have seen Kingsley in the house when she entered.
“Maybe he went to get something” she thought sitting down on her bed to rest before finding something to eat.
Pearl had just lay down for just few minutes when she started feeling worried about Kingsley.
“What if he lost his way?” She thought standing up.
“Maybe I should just search for him all around”she thought heading out of the house.
Pearl asked all her neighbors about Kingsley.
“You mean that handsome guy that’s always following you around?” A woman asked and pearl nodded.
“I saw him this morning,but I can’t say where he is currently, but I think you should search that coffee shop down the road,he can’t do without coffee though.” The woman stated.
“Thank you mummy Daniel” pearl said before dashing off to the coffee shop.
She got to the shop and search through the crowd but was surprised not to find him.
She walked up to the man attending to the people.
“How many coffee, did you want ma’am?” He demanded.
“I need no coffee, have you seen a tall and handsome guy today?”she demanded.
“Wait, does he have a low cut?” He asked back.
“Yes” she replied.
“He came to buy coffee and that was the last time I saw him” the man replied honestly and pearl sighed.
“Which path did he took?” She asked.
“I don’t know, I was busy and I’m still busy if you can excuse me ” the man scoffed tired of the questions and pearl glare at him before walking away.
Alarmed, pearl started asking people whether they have seen Kingsley and they all kept saying no.
Pearl was devasted as she head home when she saw a crowd of little children discussing about a guy that collapsed and somehow their conversation caught her attention.
“The man is a very handsome man, maybe he is pregnant” the little girl said.
“How did you know he is pregnant Sandra?” Another girl asked.
“You know sister summer that is now married? When she got pregnant she was fainting and fainting then my mother said she is pregnant and the doctor confirmed it” the girl explained.
“So he will born like that?” A boy asked.
“Yes of course” Sandra replied.
“How did he looks like?” Another boy asked amongst them.
“He is very handsome like all those fine man we do see in movies, he is tall and has a low cut” Sandra explained and pearl’s eyes widened.
“That should be Kingsley!” her subconscious mind screamed at her as she walks closer to them.
“What happened to the fine guy?” She demanded.
“Good evening ma” the kids greeted respectfully.
“Evening, what happened to him?” She demanded.
“We don’t know either, he suddenly fainted and was rushed to the hospital” Sandra replied.
“What? Which hospital?” She asked them.
“We don’t know” they replied as they started to leave leaving pearl to think. She suddenly concluded that he should be in the nearest hospital.
Pearl waved down a cab and headed to the nearest hospital.
MERCY CARE HOSPITAL
The doctor came out of the ward and Catherine quickly rushed to him.
“Who are you to him? Is he your boyfriend?” He demanded.
“Yes” Catherine lied.
“Okay, follow…he was interrupted by pearl’s entrance.
“Good evening doctor, did they rush an unconscious guy here?” She demanded breathlessly.
“Yes, you can wait behind whilst I talk to his girlfriend” the doctor replied.
“Girlfriend?” Pearl creased her brow in confusion.
“This lady here came with the ambulance and claim to be his girlfriend” the doctor explained and pearl stare at Catherine in confusion expecting an answer.
