WRONG NUMBER

Episode 46
Daniel was at my place after work to drop some things for me. He was
about to leave when, I received a phone call from kola.
“Joy is in the hospital” he said with a low voice.
“What happened?” I asked
“We lost the baby, she had a miscarriage”
“Oh my God! When? How?” I screamed
“She just started bleeding, and I rushed her to the hospital”
“God! After everything you guys went through to get her pregnant!”
“She’s not taking it easy at all, my parents and parent in-laws are around
too”
“I’m coming right away” I said
“OK, thanks”
“What’s the name of the hospital?” I asked
He told me the name of the hospital and hanged up.
“What’s going, is joy OK?” Daniel asked me.
“She’s not, she had a miscarriage” After all they went through. The IVF
money that cost them millions of naira and all”
“It is well, do you know the hospital?”
I nodded. “Let me drop you and please calm down, I believe she’s in good
hands. She’ll be fine” he said
An hour later, we arrived at the hospital.
I met my Uncle and his wife at the reception. Thank God Daniel met
them the previous week, it would have been awkward if they met at the
hospital. I knelt down and greeted them They directed us to her ward.
I ran towards her on the bed and hugged her tightly, she had cried her
eyes out”
I really felt for her. We were so glad few months ago that the IVF worked
and this happened again.
I tried to console her, but she refused to be comforted. Even her husband
is not in a good shape.
Daniel moved closer to her and console her.
“We will try again, I have very competent doctors in the US, and this time
you will be under their care and be monitored thoroughly till you have the
baby” Daniel assured her.
“Daniel I’m tired, I already have my hopes up and all of a sudden, I had a
miscarriage!”
“You have to be strong, don’t loose up, I assure you everything will be
fine, just trust God”
“This burden is too much for me to bear” she cried in his arms”
“Look around Joy, just take a look around, all your loved ones are here.
You are not alone”
“I’m grateful, Thank you Daniel”
“You are welcome, I’ll talk to your husband now once I step out of here
and we’ll start planning”
“Thank you very much Daniel, thanks for coming down to check on me on
a very short notice” Joy thanked him
“He was with me when Kola called” I explained to her.
“Ok, thanks dear cousin”
Daniel excused himself and went to the reception area to discuss with
Kola.
My Parents met us at the hospital, I guessed my Uncle informed them.
Daniel left for his house while I and my mom left in my Daddy's car.
Joy was discharged three days later. I spent my weekend at her place
A month later Joy and her husband traveled out of the country. Daniel
had already made all the necessary arrangements with the Doctors over
there. We are all hoping that things we walk out fine this time.
