*_Chapter 5_*
*Natasha’s POV👩🏽*
Okay, I think I need to take a break from the world right now. My phone wouldn’t stop ringing. From calls, to text messages to voice mails.
I’ll kill June for this, how did everyone get to know so soon. I was still battling with how to tell April that I said yes and I was still battling with myself on why I said yes.
When I said yes, June was so excited. I’ve never seen him like that before. He hugged me so tightly and exclaimed to everyone in the restaurant that we were engaged. I couldn’t spoil his mood with mine, so I had to smile so hard and join him in his excitement.
This morning, it’s hitting me all over again that I’m engaged and I can’t just believe it. I honestly wasn’t ready for marriage, but well, it’s June, he loves me and I love him. We’ll just need to make this relationship better before we get married.
Now, my problem is facing April. She’s going to kill me. I just hope that she hasn’t heard yet and…..
My door swung open and April walked into my office.
“You said yes??” she asked, glaring at me.
“April, I’m not in the mood for your judgement and arguments. I just need you to support me right now and accept it”, I said to her.
“Oh wow. Natasha, I’m so happy for you, I can’t wait to see your little babies”, she said, faking a soft voice. “Oh the heck no. I’m not going to support you when you’re battling with yourself. Look right into my eyeballs and tell me that you want to get married to June right now”, she said looking right into my eyes.
“Of course I want to get married to him”, I said, staring right back into hers.
“Oh, you’re playing smart. I mean, get married to him now. Of course you would want to get married to him someday. I mean are you ready for that now. Okay, let’s try this again. Look again and tell me that you want to get married to him now and give me reasons too”, she said, glaring at me.
“April can you stop this please, I love June and I’m ready to go through whatever I have to go through to be with him. And I believe he’s going to change. You should have seen him yesterday, he looked different and I could feel his love all over”.
“Wow, I see. So if he keeps bailing on you and you know, doing other things you don’t like, how are you going to cope?”
“Well, I think he’s working on that and things will be better, and not every marriage is perfect, so why should mine be?” I said, trying to also convince myself.
“Hmm, seems like you’ve already made up your mind. Who am I to stop you from getting what you want🤷🏽♀”, she said, shrugging.
“Yeah, I want him; you should want him for me too. I really need you to go through with this”, I said to her.
“I’m here for you girl. Always and forever”, she said, smiling.
“So what’s up with you? We’ve been talking about me for a long time now and you don’t say much about yourself”, I asked her, and she looked away.
“Oh no, you’ve been up to something. Who’s the new guy😌😌?” I asked her, and she couldn’t look at me.
I got up from my chair and sat by her on my table.
“I’m waiting”, I said, teasing her.
“Okay, I have this guy who I kind of like. But I don’t want to get too close, being a divorcee and all that might make him run off”, she said, sadly.
“Ohh, April, don’t let your past judge you, just do you, God will always bring the right person to you. If the guy you like runs off, that’s his loss, because you’re very pretty, God fearing and a wonderful person”, I said, and she hugged me tightly.
“I needed to hear that”, she said. “I need to get going. I’ve got choreography rehearsals with the kids at church”, she said, getting up.
“Alright, let me walk you out then”, I said, getting up and we left my office.
On our way out, we saw a set of twins at the hallway, arguing. It wasn’t our business, so we left it and went our way.
*Unknown POV*
“You’re the reason why he’s in the hospital bed”, Monica yelled.
“Me? You’re crazy. What were you even doing in his house in the first place?” Mabel asked.
“I was comforting him. You shattered his heart and you didn’t have the guts to comfort him, so I had to do it”, Monica said, rolling her eyes at her sister.
“I was giving him some space and planned on doing it in the evening. But when I showed up, your too known self, just had to leave water on the floor for him to slip and fall”, Mabel yelled.
Monica was surprised at her sister’s outburst. Mabel was always the calm and quiet type, but it seemed this time, she has had enough.
The doctor came out and they rushed to him.
“How’s he?” they asked in unison.
“He’s up now, but has a slight brain injury and has a little bit of memory loss. He doesn’t’ remember what happened to him, but it will come back within some few days”, the doctor said and they both smiled.
“Who are you to him, again?” the doctor asked.
“I’m his fiancée, I’m his sister”, they both said at once and the doctor looked at them confused.
“We’re his sisters”, Monica said, smiling and the doctor walked away.
“Wait, wait, can we see him?” Mabel asked.
“Yes you can, he’s at room 204” the doctor said, and they quickly rushed down the hall way.
“Fiancée? Really? You turned the boy down, why are you claiming him now”, Monica asked.
“Mind your business. I think I should have listened to Oscar and keep you out of our business”, she said, pushing her sister.
They both walked into the room and Oscar was indeed awake. But he had bandages on his forehead and his hand.
“Baby”, Mabel said, rushing to him.
“I was so worried, I thank God you’re up”, she said, pecking him on the cheek.
“Oscar, how do you feel?” Monica asked, touching his hands and he retrieved it.
“Why did you bring her here?” Oscar asked Mabel.
“I’m so sorry. You heard him, please go”, Mabel said to her sister.
“Oscar, I was with you when she….” Monica tried saying but was cut off by Mabel.
“Monica just go, I can take care of my fiancée now”, she said and Monica left quietly.
“Fiancée?” He asked.
“Yeah, baby. I will love to marry you”, she said, smiling.
