continuation of series................................TOLU

As he dialed the number he was made to listen to Lara George’s Hallelujah (caller tune), he tried a few more times and noticed no one was picking up, he tried to ask her for another number when the look on her face gave him a second thought, he quickly picked her up headed for the road to get a cab, it was quite early which made it really difficult for them to get a taxi on time, as they waited patiently while she moaned in pains a rickety looking taxi approached them, he quickly waved the taxi and the taxi came to a halt, “where una dey go the middle aged taxi man asked them, Chris quickly said take us to a nearest hospital, sir? Na where that one dey the illiterate driver asked, feeling so disgusted Chris screamed at him, I say make u take us to any hospital wey no far from here you dey ask me another thing, ohhhhh na wetin u talk be that, me I no sabi English well well o, so make you no vex, ok sir, your money na four thousand, without arguing Chris said move your vehicle. They approached a small building which looked more like a local pharmacy than a clinic, oga! We don reach o, the driver said, reach where? Chris asked with disgust in his voice, the hospital na, abi no be hospital una say una wan come, na the one wey I sabi be this one he said shrugging his shoulders. As he demanded his money Chris was so irritated and said take me to a decent hospital,Tolu who has been quite most of the trip quickly interrupted them saying please let’s just go even if they can just give me something to ease the pain, I am dying here I can’t bear this pain a little longer. Chris agreed and paid the driver off.

 

She laid down on the bed feeling a little better, while Chris walked in to see how she was doing, wow! He is such a handsome dude she said to herself, she quickly removed her face to hide her surprise, she was carried away by pains she didn’t even check him out earlier, hi beautiful how are you feeling? Am ok she said almost immediately, I just spoke to your mum and she said she is on her way, I must really run now so I don’t go late to work, I will check on you later,but I would send someone to come and get you out of this dirty place they call a clinic, that’s if your mum approves anyway.
