(Finale)
?Linda ?
I couldn’t believe my eyes, Miriam lying lifelessly in the pool of blood.
“Miriam “I screamed running to her, I touched her but she was so cold I was so scared that I couldn’t cry
I picked my phone immediately dialing a number, and someone picked immediately at the first ring
“Please an ambulance is needed here and now “I said throwing the phone on floor
I rushed to her again, I used my hand to placed on her nostril if she is still breathing and thank God she is still alive but her breath is very slow and weak
“Miriam please stay with me please, Miriam are you hearing me? Its me Linda your friend please don’t
leave me don’t leave your unborn child don’t leave us please fight for your life, you can always hold on to life challenges remember? You can do this Miriam please just show me a sign that you are still holding on remember friends for life “I said everything that came into my mind and mouth praying and crying with a broken heart that Miriam should live, she is just too young to die this way.
A tear rolled down her eyes slowing with a drop after drop that was when it dawn on me that my friend is still alive and she can hear me speak and cry.
Few minutes later, my parents came and helped Miriam into the ambulance, I was so restless that I put so much pressure on the poor driver to drive as fast as he could.
My mom and dad were so stunned, speechless, sad and surprise with all the sudden occurrences.
My mom called Miriam ‘s mom telling her of her daughter’s condition.
An hour later she came running like a good mother crying, yelling and wailing through out the whole day at the hospital I was so tempted to spat on her disgusting face.
Who ever that sees her wailing will feel pity thinking she is a good and caring mother when she is worst than a tiger.
I walked up to her, looking at her for the first time in years
“Mrs Mara, hope when my friend dies you will be very happy right? “I asked looking in a disdain.
She kept mute still sobbing
“I can’t believe that you are among mothers that you are also called a mother, I am so ashamed of myself because I am among the mothers and you call yourself one of us. I wonder why you gave birth to that poor girl making her look like an orphan “my mom said yelling
“I hope you rot in jail for ever people like you deserve more than death “my dad said walking away.
But he was stopped when the doctor came out rushing to us
“Doctor “we all chorused
“Hummm, I don’t know how to tell you guys the news but for now there is no time to waste, she gave birth to a premature baby girl which we will put in incubator till she is fully ok but now the patient is awake and she wishes to see you all “the doctor said leading us
We reach the room and I couldn’t control the tears the sight of Miriam struggling for breath breaks my heart
“Miriam “we called at the same time walking to her, we all touched her in different places
She smiled at us all tears streaming down her eyes
“Linda you are really a good friend to me thanks, God will bless and give you a good life partner “she said smiling at me
“Thanks ma and thanks sir for taking all the responsibility of my mother on yourselves God will bless you “she said touching my parents
“Mom, I don’t believe that you are here right now with me because I can’t remember the last time you cared for me, now I am at the point of death that is
why you run down here I didn’t know that just a call will bring you back and within an hour, you are so unbelievable and I don’t know what to say to you or how to call you.
Protect and bring up my child, I know you have
learnt your lesson so do what you can do with my daughter that’s the only way I can be happy and forgive you “Miriam said and choked several times before she finally gave up
“Miriam “I called yelling but she didn’t give an answer
? Mrs Mara?
I have committed a great mistake against God, myself, my daughter and my fellow women both mothers and intending mothers.
I can’t ask for your forgiveness because it is just too much to ask for.
I couldn’t blame anyone but my self, I was fascinated by material things forgetting about my only daughter.
Now my mistake has cost me my daughter’s life and nearly cost me my little grand daughter’s life, I will never forgive myself never.
“Now are you happy? “Linda yelled holding my shirt
“I pray you rot in jail you wicked woman “Linda’s mom said walking away.
Moral lesson
To us mothers and intending mothers, we should never put material things first forgetting about our children. They need us.
