?Elva’s POV?

“You look beautiful”He said and i forced on a smile.
“Thanks, I have to go in now” I said.

“Ok welcome to CARE and HEAL hospital”He said.
“Thanks”
“Let me leave you now,see you soon”He said,smiled and walked away.
I breathe in deeply before opening the door,I walked in feeling a little bit nervous.

Wow.
Cuties.
‘These kids are cute,how could parents abandon these cuties’ I thought.
There are seven beds,each for a child and there is a clean desk with a chair positioned where one can have full view of the children.
They all turned to face me,giving me a ‘who are you’ look,there are four girls,three boys.

“Hey children” I said with a smile.
“Who are you?” A cute smart girl asked,she seems the oldest, probably seven years of age.
“I’m Elva, I’ll replace Mrs Morgan till she’s back from maternity leave” I said.
“I hope you are as kind as Mrs Morgan,she doesn’t yell or get pissed at us” Another girl said,she seems younger than the first girl.

“Of course i will be as kind as Mrs Morgan,I won’t yell or get pissed at you all okay” I said and they nodded.

“Now sit on your beds and introduce yourselves to me one after the other” I said and they all scurried over to their beds.
Obedient.
I also walked to the desk, dropped my bag on it and turned back to them.
“Now let’s start with you” I said pointing to a cute little boy.

“I’m Jack” He said.
“I’m Mitchell” The smart girl said.
“I’m Karen”A cute girl said.
“I’m Martin” A boy said.
“I’m Daniel” A cute boy said and i took liking for him immediately.
“I’m Miya” Another cute girl said.
“I’m Sasha”…..

“Cute names you’ve all got” I said walking over to my chair,I sat down resting my hand on the desk comfortably.

“I’ve introduced myself earlier but it’ll be better to do it properly now. I’m Elva Wilson, Mrs Morgan replacement,i promise to be as kind as possible and i hope we all become great friends” I said and the children smiled.
“You’re welcome Miss Elva” They said in unison.

“Your breakfast will arrive soon, and I’m gonna serve you all okay” I said and they nodded.

The ward looks big enough and I like it that way.
They fell silent,all staring at me..

Looks like they aren’t comfortable with me yet.

?Mig’s POV?

I entered the kitchen some minutes after they left, Elva’s figure is breathtaking in that outfit and even her beauty
I’ve always wondered if she was a model.

I banged the kitchen cabinet loudly when I realized how those stupid doctors will surely hit on her.

I shouldn’t have allowed Fleur to get her the job.

And what if they hit on her?
Am i being jealous or what?
She doesn’t belong to me ! i don’t think I have any right on her but…

I shrugged it off, dishing out the chicken i just boiled. I took another plate and scooped some soft rice inside it.

I remained some for Elva and Fleur, put it in the refrigerator before I carried mine down to the dining room.
I sat and began eating,humming along.

I washed the dishes after eating and went to my room to take a nap.

??????

I woke up feeling bored.
Arrrrgh!

I really miss Elva’s presence in the house,we would have been chatting by now..

I sat up on the bed wondering what she could be doing right now?

‘Chatting with a cute doc?’ I thought jealously.

Mig.

I’ve read all the novels in the library and I’m not a fan of re-reading novels except i really it but I’m not even in the mood for that now.
‘What do I do?’
‘I’m so bored’….

Ohh..yeah.

I Know what to do…I’m gonna do what I haven’t done for long.

I raced out of the room heading straight to the attic,I opened the door and walked in using my hand to clear away the cobwebs as i approached where my piano is neatly covered.

I’ve always wanted to be a model and a musician, I have the best voice anyone could ever think of and I’m damn good in composing songs.

I have series of my composed songs and even the butterflies dance whenever i sing.

It’s my passion..my talent..my dream..my life but it’s just so sad I couldn’t pursue it because of my disease.

I remembered when Mum gave me the piano on my fifteenth birthday,when we were still at the City. She knows about my passion for music and decided to help me in the little way she can..

And the first time i placed my finger on the piano was the happiest moment in my life and then I had known that ‘this is my passion,my desire,my talent,my dream,my life and all’.

Then, our neighbors love listening to me sing and play my piano,we will all sit in the garden by evening and they would persuade me to sing and play my piano.

I would run inside happily,bring out my piano and start doing what I love doing most.

They would applaud me the moment I’m done and I would smile happily.

Mr Tony one of our neighbors will pat my back and promised me,he will make me be the musician and model I always want to be.
I would smile, thanking him.

But all my dreams were shattered the moment my disease was discovered and we had to leave the City for the countryside.

Then, leaving the city to the countryside terrified me,I have always heard that the countryside is filled with ghosts,mĀ©nsters and wolves.
My parents assured me,and convinced me there was none of those.

They bought this house and refurnished it before we moved in and since then,i never touched my piano because it brings back memories i would not like to remember.

But now.. I’m ready to continue my passion,my desire,the only thing that makes me heartily happy.

I know i may not sing to the world like I’ve always want to but singing in here alone will still make me happy.

Enough of the thoughts…
I let out a deep breath and removed the cloth I used in covering it..

And there is my piano,looking as new as ever,no single trace of dust on it.
I felt a pump in my chest just by merely seeing it.

I didn’t know when i smiled..I shifted back the piano stool,cleaned it before sitting on it,eager to start.
I turned on the piano, pressed my finger on a key and I felt adrenaline pumped through my veins.

I played some keys and that old feeling came back to me…
I smiled happily and began playing the piano like I’ve always done.

I let myself drown in the moment,the song came out beautifully from my mouth and my talented fingers played the piano..second to none.

Geez.
What a great moment..
