Thank you very much doc, I will see you later today for the results, Mr. Thomson said as he dropped the call. At age thirty, Mr.Thompson had been renounced as a big-time businessman who owned over two hundred shipping companies across the globe. At age 24, he got married to 18 years old Sally, who has won favor in the eyes of many people in the fashion industry. At age ten, she had begun her carrier as a model and had gotten the nickname '' princess of the runway". At age eighteen, she had won multiple awards and has accompanied most male celebrities to big events. Through her modeling career in the United States, she met young entrepreneur Thompson Browson they fell in love and got married a few months after they met.
Four years into marriage with no children, His wife had been diagnosed with DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS
DVT
sickness, which introduced the family of Thomson into distress. What did he say, my love? Sally asked. With her sick pale face, she tried to stand up, but Mr. Thomson walked to the side of the bed and kissed her on the forehead, he sat beside her and hugged her. Is everything ok my love? she asked worriedly, everything is fine my love, the doctor said the results are in, he said. Well, what does it say Mrs. Thomson asked, I don't know my love, I would have to go to the hospital for that my world! he said and sighed softly. Then we shall go together, let me just get dressed. No baby you can't go with me my love, you need to rest and besides the doctor said you will need the strength, and we can't afford any more complications. No! I insist on going with you! she said sounding a bit juvenile. You stubborn lad, come on baby let me go alone, he said sarcastically.
Samantha!!! Sally called the only house help they had. A few minutes later, an elderly woman in her late sixties walked into the room in a rush that she nearly twisted her ankle. Are you ok Samantha? Mr. Thompson asked standing up, she smiled and said " I am fine, it was just a twist but am ok ", no you need to see the doctor, he walked up to her and knelt to check if she is really fine. Years ago, the Thompson family had hired Samantha to be his nanny, since his parents were mostly not around, in his dark moments where his parents were busy somewhere else, he will turn to his nanny for comfort. Days passed by slowly and time fled at its topmost speed when tragedy gave a deadly blow to the Thompsons. His parents had died in a plane crash, Samantha decided to devote her time to take care of young Thompson until he is of age.
You look weary Samantha, Sally said while poking her head out as if she was trying to look at something on the ground, I am fine ma! Samantha said as she pushed up her glasses a little bit. You have to rest Samantha, Mr. Thomson said as he stood up, I am fine sir. I've told you not to call me sir Samantha, you are like my mom, call me by my name, unless you want to tell me you have forgotten about my name.
They all laughed
. Ok sir, I mean Thomson. Samantha, prepare breakfast, I will be going to the hospital with my husband.
Sally spoke out while she kept her eyes on the hand mirror she held looking at her face
. Ok ma, I will get it done.
Samantha please open the curtains for me, let the beautiful sun, rain on my beautiful wife,
Thompson requested as he walked back to sit beside his wife who was still in bed
. Ok Sir I mean Thompson
as she opened the curtains she felt dizzy, she swooned seconds after that
Samantha!!! Mr. Thompson sprung up from the bed and rushed to the aid of Samantha, no no no call an ambulance for Christ sake Sally, you will be fine Samantha, please don't leave me, please stay strong, you can't, hurry up Sally
, in the background Sally could be heard on the phone with the hospital emergency unit, few seconds after she dropped the call, Josh, their driver came in when he heard his boss shouting, help me Josh help me sit Samantha up, they sit her up in a lazy chair at the corner of the room. I think she is regaining consciousness, Josh said, damn it where is the ambulance Sally? Mr. Thompson asked, they will be here soon my love, she replied. Stay in there Samantha, we are here with you, please hang on a little longer, Mr. Thompson spoke out in teary eyes.
It's a good thing you brought her to the hospital early. She will be fine, Mr. Thompson, she is just tired, the doctor spoke with a calm voice as he handed a file to a blonde nurse standing beside him. She is waking up, Sally exclaimed happily and peacefully.
Mr. Thompson went close to Samantha, he held her hand while he spoke to her almost in a whisper
hey Samantha, welcome back, what happened my boy, she whispered, you gave us a freak there you know, Sally spoke sounding relieved. Baby let's leave Samantha to rest small ok! Mr. Thompson suggested. It's a good idea, in the meantime, I would like to see the two of you in my office please, the doctor requested, ok doc, we are after you, Samantha, rest some more, we will be back soon, he said as he placed a kiss on her forehead.
I don't know how to break this to you, and I wish there was another way I could do this, there's bad news, he paused and sighed, he lowed his head down and raised his head again making eye contact with them, what is it doc, Mr. Thomson asked while he held his wife's hand tightly, We discovered a hidden brain tumor in your wife, in the recent medical test we did on her the results showed that she has been suffering from it for some time now, I am ... What do you mean my wife has a hidden brain tumor? Mr. Thompson chipped in angrily, Sally stood up, walked to the side of the big glass window at the left-hand side of the doctor's office, staring at the beautiful view and the busy road she spoke in almost a whisper, how long do I have a doctor? Did you know about this Sally? Mr. Thompson asked as he stood up.
I will leave you two alone to talk, I will be back, he hands the report to Sally as he walked out leaving the two couples alone. Why didn't you tell me about this Sally, why didn't you? She turned her head from the window view and stared blankly at her husband, then turned back to the window view and spoke with her eyes red and sticky with tears, I didn't tell you because I didn't want to disturb you, he moved closer to her and hugged her from behind, she stepped away from him and walked to the doctor's desk and picked up her black handbag looking for something in it. Disturb?
Walked from where he stood
When did I ever mention you disturb me? Can you take me home, please? I would like to rest. The door opened and the doctor stepped in, Samantha is awake, she may go home now. In the meantime, this is the scan we did for you, Sally. She took it and walked out of the room.
