With You By My Side

Mt

CHAPTER:02

There was huge traffic as everyone came down and was screaming, my friends were crying, precious who pushed me was regretting and saying she didn’t know how she did it…

We were rushed to the hospital, emergency ward..

None of us were alive for more than 20 minutes

Dave’s mother was crying bitterly, her eyes were swollen and red..

None of my parents were around as they haven’t heard the news.

Dave wake up, wake up, his mother kept screaming, his legs were already broken..

Dave’s mother deposited money and told the doctors to save her sons life

Who are the parents of the other victim? A doctor asked

I don’t know. I don’t know,, right now I only care about my son. Please save him

We can’t touch her till we see her parents

Mummy, please save her for me.. pay the money..Dave said and closed his eyes

Did my son just talk? Dave can you hear me? Can you talk to me?

He didn’t talk, there’s oxygen on him right now, he’s finding it difficult to breathe.

I heard him talk, I heard my sons voice

Madam, your son is dying, he can’t speak.. you’ll have to leave this room so we can do our job..

Dave’s mother left.

I was still lying helplessly, waiting for a miracle..

It began to rain heavily, I was almost dying.

God works in a mysterious way.

One of the doctor heard dave said “ I don’t know her, just make sure she’s alive, save her life too.

He is talking doctor John.. he is talking

I heard him too, but it’s impossible, take the little girl and start treatment. Her parents will definitely come.

They started reviving me, My mother heard the news cause precious ran home to tell her about the accident, she hurriedly left the house down to the hospital.

She got there, saw the crowd outside, praying.

They are kids and do not know anything. God you have to do something.. the noise was becoming too much, the security asked them to leave

The nurse took her to where I am. She couldn’t ask what happend, she just said “Nina, your dream will never come to pass” you can’t die not now not today..

Dave’s mother heard my mother has arrived, she began to rain curses on us, wishing me death..

She wanted to fight my mother , one of the nurse separated them

You cannot train your daughter very well, how can you let a child of this cross the road? They were even playing on the road. I wonder why my son has to put his life on the line for your useless daughter that plays too much

This is not the time to fight, our children are going through a lot here, we need to stick together and pray for them. I don’t know how God did it, but he sent your son to save my daughter

Don’t call God.. God cannot send my son to save some one he doesn’t know, he is just 11 he is still growing , he has a future.

Ma, please fill this form, your daughter will be alright. Doctor John interrupted

What about my son? Dave’s mother asked

We’re still working on him.. we are trying our best..

Another set of tears started

Calm down .. we need your sons details

I already filled the form your nurse gave to me

This is another form.. we are thinking of transferring him to our headquarters ,his legs are weak, we are still trying but I think it’s best you take him there, your son may not be able to walk again. He may live the rest of his life moving around on a wheelchair ?

No, it’s not happening, my son can’t live his life with that, you have to do something doctor.

That’s the best we can do, the doctors here are not specialists in orthopedic ( treatment of bones) your son will be fine just pray and trust the doctors too,

My mother was soo cold, she couldn’t utter a word..

Two days later.. the doctor came again..

We are ready,

For what? Dave’s mother asked

Your transfer has been approved, your son can’t stay here..what about your husband?

He travelled, he’s not in town..

Okay, get your stuffs ready.

She had no choice but to obey for the sake of her son….

Can I see your son?? Please! My mother asked

No, you can't see my son..

Please, for the fact that he saved my daughter, I want to see him, I want to pray with him

You want to mock me. I pray your daughter's life become more uncomfortable for what she did

My daughter didn't do anything, she is not awake yet, I am also in pain

My son is not yet awake too.. just leave, go to your daughter, Thank God we’re being transferred cause I wouldn’t want to stay here with you.. my son don’t deserve this.

Everything was set , Dave was still unconscious, they took him to the hospital’s headquarters

Immediately they left, I opened my eyes.
