CHAPTER TWO

EVELYN'S POV

"Evelyn! What are you doing here, haven't you heard enough, do you want to kill her?"My elder brother asked with the sound of pain in his throat.

"What do you mean, don't tell me you blame me for what happened to Mom?"

"Why not? You have always been troubled,"

"I just stepped out to pick George up from the airport, and I came back to Mom in the hospital."

"Didn't Dad tell you why she fainted?"

"Yeah, he told me, why will you cook up such a lie just because you want to relocate, now is mom in the hospital, I hope you are happy now?"

My brother asked as he looked at me with disdain.

"I can't believe you will think little of me, well it doesn't matter I don't expect you to understand, please move out of my way I need to see how mom is doing."

I tried to get past my brother.

"You are not going anywhere you have caused enough discomfort to Mom and I will not allow you to see her, so please leave,"My brother said as he shoved me with his shoulder.

"Webster what is wrong with you I came to see Mom and you are preventing me and causing a scene."

I said with disappointment as I expected better from my brother being the eldest.

I left the hospital back to the house in tears as I still couldn't believe my brother would do such in the hospital,

The next morning I went back knowing he should be at work at that time.

"Hi Dad, how is mom today?"

I asked with a shaking voice scared of another scene.

"She is still the same, hope you are happy in the condition you put your mom in?"

My dad asked, looking dead into my eyes like he lost his soul.

I just fell on the hospital bench hoping nothing happened to My mom,

"What are you doing here, I thought I told you you couldn't see Mom?"

My elder brother asked as he walked into my mom's hospital room with George, my younger brother with a bag of fruit and a flower bouquet for my mom.

"I am here to see Mom."

"After putting her in the hospital?" My brother George asked.

"Why are you all against me?"

" No one is against you here, you are just a bag of trouble, how could you have cooked up such a story just because you wanted to relate?"

My father asked in disbelief.

"Didn't cook up any story, I was r***d by our former neighbor's three sons for two years, it's obvious you don't care and you guys are supposed to be my family,"

"Don't you dare speak about family because it's obvious you don't know what that means, just look at what you did to your mother, she is in the hospital because of your cooked-up Story."

"Can you bring your voices down this is a hospital,"The doctor said as he walked in.

"Doctor, what is wrong with my mom, hope she will be alright?"

My younger brother asked the doctor anxiously,

"Well your mother is fine, just high blood pressure, she needs to stay back for two days for further examination, just to be sure."

The doctor replied as he examined my mom.

"Did you hear that?"

My father asked

"You have given your mother high blood pressure with your cooked-up Story.He continued.

" I was r***d why is it difficult for my family to believe?"

I said as I left my mother's room not expecting a response as it was a rhetorical question,

I went back home, cleaned the house, did the laundry made lunch for my dad and brothers, and headed back to the hospital.

"Good day everyone", the doctor said as he walked in to examine my mom,

"Everything seems ok, you just need to rest and take your medications."

I breathe a sigh of relief after hearing those words from the doctor.

"We can all go home tomorrow, Evelyn please go home and get the house ready for us, and why have been quiet since you came?"

My father asked as he looked at me with a straight face.

"Nothing Dad am just happy mom is better and we will all be home soon as a family, I will go get the house ready,"

I said as I kissed my mom on her forehead and gave her a long stare knowing what I planned to do that night.

"Evelyn, Evelyn," my father's voice echoed around the house "Where is she?" my father kept calling out for me,

"Just came from her room. She isn't there I guess she stepped out".

My brother said as he tried to help my mom settle in.

"Mo Mom what are you doing cooking, don't tell me Evelyn is not back from wherever she went to?"

My brother asked as he assisted my mom in the kitchen.

"No dear, I haven't seen her, but have you tried calling her phone? I need her to get some groceries from the store down the street."

"What are you doing in the kitchen honey, where is Evelyn, isn't she back, Please have a sit have you forgotten what the doctor said about stress ?"My father asked as he helped my mom sit,

"Her number is not reachable."My elder brother frowned as he kept calling my number.

"Mom, Dad!"My younger brother screamed as he ran out of my room, "Why are you screaming? Your mom just got back from the hospital so please keep your voices down," my father said reprehending my younger brother angrily.

" I'm sorry Mom, I didn't mean to arouse your blood pressure but Evelyn's wardrobe is empty, all her clothes are gone, and she left a note saying she had gone to Los Angeles asking us not to worry about her as she goes to search for a better life for herself."

"She did what?"

My parents asked unanimously as they were shocked and didn't see this coming.
