if miracles weren't arranged

the strange Encounter ii.

she hurriedly left the dishes unwashed, hoping Ember yells when she sees it.

"hurry up Emily," he said while thinking of how he's going to get his truck because Ember wants him to hang around till emily gets here, Tariq feeling a bit of anxiety looking on and off his wrist watch because no man is ever comfortable living their car behind in public places especially when it's filled with groceries sitting out there under the sun like a pot of gold waiting to be found.

silence spread across the ward as they're the only ones there, Ember watching Tariq's body language. paying close attention to him enough to notice that he didn't even reach out to carry the baby for a little while as a caring man he is, although the baby has been cleaned up.

"Do you need anything?" Ember asked in a very low tone, "huh" Tariq responded, rushing out of the random thoughts in his mind. "you could go get some food at the cafeteria, that's if you're hungry" said Ember "that sounds great, take care of yourself ok? I'll back" Tariq responded while leaving the ward to the cafeteria you'd think he knew where it is.

Remembering that he didn't ask the pregnant lady what she wanted eat, or get at the cafeteria. he rushed back into the ward after taking 2 steps outside it, "can I get your anything?" Tariq asked and she responded "just get me a bag of Lays chips and sprite"

"that can't be all you want to eat after going through so much stress, I'm not the pregnant person here but I can tell how stressful it was and it was really stressful" "I'll get your bag of chips and Soda and improvise on the next thing you're going to eat after the chip appetizers." Tariq added.

he then head towards the receptionist again to ask for directions, "hey beautiful" Tariq compliment her. she smiling so sheepishly nodded her head in other not to burst into laughter, "can you point me in the direction of cafeteria please?" Tariq asked "down the hallway the fourth door to your left, that's the cafeteria" she concluded "Thank you" Tariq said.

heading to the cafeteria he couldn't help but notice how well organized the hospital and the paint display proving that it is indeed a hospital. very close to the second door to the left in the hallway, a female nurse suddenly came out the door she saw Tariq she got so scared she almost threw all the documents she held. letting that slide he complimented everything saying "clean hospital, beautiful nurses" he confirmed.

Getting to the Cafe door, as a man that don't enjoy crowd, he stood a bit to soak in the random voices and sounds coming out of the cafeteria. he then opened the door and the people matched the number he had in mind, sending greetings as a gentleman to all the people he made eye contact with, while heading towards the counter. the cafeteria was divided into two sections, the part where food and grills are made and a little supermarket at the otherside. he went straight to place an order for two burgers, with a piece chicken with chips on the side, hoping it'll be ready after he gets the bag of chips at the small supermarket.

"I need two bottles of sprite and one big bag of lays chips" said tariq. "would that be all" the store cashier asked after getting everything together. Tariq nodded in agreement. she put it in a white nylon bag. then he sat waiting for the burgers he ordered to be done because he has not had anything solid to eat today.

after a long 10-12 minutes wait his names sound bold and loud coming out of the chef's mouth, jolt him out of the quick rest he was in. he was invited to come pick up his burgers, chicken and fries and make payments for it. handing out his card to the cashier, he mentioned all he got for lunch. after typing in his pin the transaction was made, a quick vibration followed by a ping sound confirms that the transaction went successfully. he walked to the doors after collecting his, hoping that Ember would love what he bought for her.

A hard push on the delivery ward doors brought back Ember from her quick nap with the baby sucking on her breast, after observing him with two bags "what is In the other bag?" she asked "more food" Tariq said "I got your bag of chips and sprite" Tariq said taking them out and placing it on her hospital bed, "and I went ahead and got burgers for the both of us. Her eyes lit up hearing that he got burgers "thank you very much, I never knew they sold burgers at the cafeteria, I would have told you to get it" ember said "you never asked" Tariq Ended. revealing the Burgers in the second leather bag.

after a few minutes of muching, drinking, swallowing and joyous laughter that made every thing lively. a sudden vibration followed by a ring tone, "I think your phone is ringing" Ember said, Tariq picked up the phone revealing to Ember that Emily is the one calling.

his heart raising because he had already concluded that she must be waiting outside the hospital ,plus the pressure of meeting a woman you've never seen only talked to over the phone, hoping she was pretty he passed the phone to Ember to tell her what to do.

Ember swiftly slide the dial towards green answering the call saying "hello Emily", "hey sis" Emily said so casually because there's little to no age gap between the two of them.

"I'm outside the hospital, do I wait so he'd come pick me up or ask directions from one of the nurses?" Emily asked. Ember very smart understanding that Tariq wouldn't want to be the one to go get her outside "head to the reception and ask for the maternity ward, you'll find us here." Ember said. Tariq tensed knowing that Emily would be someone he'd like, took a quick deep breath his ritual technique to end anxiety as Ember ended the phone call.

During the few minutes it would take Emily to walk from the entrance to the maternity ward, every footstep and push against the translucent tempered glass doors to the ward, made Tariq's heart skip a beat thinking it was her. after four opening and closing of the maternity ward doors, few minutes into a new conversation with Ember, As a shadow was casted below the doors of the wall Tariq noticed standing for three seconds. afterwards she sounded a slight and gentle knock on the translucent tempered glass doors followed by a hard push against it.

coming in was a tall white lady with the body that Tariq would describe as his 'type of woman', a tall lady with a beautiful face, very accurate size of breast that suits her body and a perfect size hips and ass.

"After having such a stressful day helping a woman he barely know lead him to meeting the woman of his Dreams, what a STRANGE ENCOUNTER it is" Tariq thought to himself.
