CHAPTER 57

[Thursday]
Clara’s POV
“Bingggg!” the alarm clock sounded deep into my ears, waking me up from my
dreamless sleep.
I opened my eyes to see rays of sunlight from the window curtains.
It’s morning.
I tossed on the bed and then sat up, rolling the duvet off my body.
I glanced at my phone on the bedside table, plugged into a charger. I unplugged it from the charger and scrolled through it. Nothing important.
I dropped it and got out of the bed, slide into my slippers and walked into the bathroom where I used the WS, brushed and repacked my hair.
I walked out and picked my phone.
I headed to the kitchen to make breakfast.
My phone began ringing. I glanced at it.
Mom.
I sighed and picked it up.
“Clara dear,” she called. Her voice calm.
“Morning mom,” I said.
“Danelle told me everything and im happy I could communicate with you now.
Clara, we need to talk. Im coming down to maymack tomorrow to talk with you face-to-face. You can’t keep makinh these several mistakes,” she said.
“Mom im fine, im perfectly fine and I made no mistake. I wobder what mistske
you are talking about,” I said.
“Noah, Noah is the mistake. Do not repeat this mistake Clara. Get on with your life
and pray for a better man who would never try to hurt you never again,” she said. I sighed. “Mom, I love Noah and it wasn’t really his fault. He was misled by his father and Im the only girl he has ever dated and being inlove with. He lied to protect me mom, to save me or else his dad would have done something very bad to me because Noah broke the strict rule of ‘no dating’ just because he couldn’t stop his love for me. Inorder to protect me, he promised his dad never to reveal his real job to me. He said the truth mom and I forgave him. I love him and im not gonna leave him,” I said.
“Clara you have no idea what you are talking about. Im coming over to talk to you and you have to listen to me,” she said.
I breathed out.
“You are going to work today?” she asked.
“Yea,” I said and picked out a noodle pack from the kitchen cupboard.
“Alright, talk with you later. Take care of yourself and think about all I said to you, okay?”
“I’ve heard mom,” I said.
“Bye daughter,”
“Bye mom.”
She dropped the call. I dropped the phone on the counter. I turned on the cooker, placed a pot on it and added water.
‘Everyone is against me but didn’t I promise myself not to listen?’ Yeah I did but I can’t deny that somehow it’s getting to me
What if Noah lied?
No, I can’t think that, I can’t.
And Drake, I still the guilt.
Why did he fall inlove with me, if truely he’s inlove with me.’
I sighed.
‘Recalling all those moments we shared together. I can’t help but feel hurt that he left, because of me.
He was here for me all these while, even before the shit happened.
I love the way he cared, I miss him but I love Noah so much.
God, what do I do.’
I sighed and stired the noodles in the hot pot.

An Hour Later:
[G.A Hospital ]
~~
I walked into the hospital hallway, towards the staircase. Passing the hpspital lounge, I saw three police, William and Katy with a man in plain black trouser and blue long-sleeved shirt talking with Dr Rosh.
I greeted them a ‘goodmorning’ and headed to the staircase.
I climbed the stairs and got to my office. I got in and dropped my bag on the table and headed to the change room to change into my work wears.
After putting on the blue trouser and blue shirt, I walked out and sat on my seat to arrange the files sattered on my desk.
‘That man with them look quite familiar. Who is he?’
I shook my head, waving the thought off as I went on to arrange the files.
I’ve got three surgeries with Dr. Rosh today. Today is really gonna be hectic.

Danelle’s POV
[Hamilton High School]
“C’mon Nelle hurry up, we’d get to the class quite late if you keep tieing the shoe lace forever,” Tessy said as she packed her books into her backpack.
I finally tied the shoe lace and adjusted my green top then carries my backpack as we headed out of the girl’s dormitory towards the school gate.
“7:40am,” she said, checking her wristwatch.
“I hate math,” I said.
She chuckled. “You can’t run from it,” she said.
“Crazy subject,” I sighed.
She chuckled again.
‘Unlike I hate Math, Tessy love Math but hate History but I love History. She’d read History with me, while I solve Math with her.’
We walked into the school gate and turned towards the school building then to our classroom.
～
Getting into the classroom, Neil was already in class, seated on his desk, staring at the notes in front of him, cracking his brain.
I chuckled.
Just like I hate Math, Neil do but he’s kinda better than me. His best subject is biology.
“Look at him,” Tessy laughed and ran over to him.
I smiled.
‘Im still spying on the duo’
I got to them and he was laughinh at what Tessy was saying.
“…how much you gonna pay me to teach you the equation? it’s really simple!” Tessy said.
“Did I hear you say simple? im gonna pay you three dollars,” he said.
“C’mon that’s too poor. Okay, five no six dollars,” she said.
“Ahh just to teach me the method. Once im perfect on it, i’ll work the rest myself,”
he said.
“No no no, six dollars last.” Tessy persisted.
I just stood there, watching them.
Neil didn’t even act like I was there.
I breathed out and made to leave when Tessy stopped me.
“Ha ha, Danelle come listen to your boyfriend. He said I have to teach him the equation for free. Not in this world,” she said, laughing.
I turned back to face them, then Neil finally noticed me, huh! he was smiling at me.
“Danelle don’t stand with her, stand with me your boyfriend,” he said.
I scoffed a chuckle.
“You both know what to do already. I don’t need to be invited,” I said and with
that, I turned and walked to my seat.
I dropped my bag angrily on the desk and droppes my head too as anger boiled inside me while Jealousy was almost ripping me off.
I felt like crying but some hope that I’ve got let me to believe that it might not be what Im thinking.
She had started teaching him the equation now and their laughter didn’t stop the anger that wanted to burst open my wounded heart.
I wanted to rush to them, slap Neil really hard accross the face and cut off my friendship with Tessy forever but that small hope still made me calm on my seat with my head down on my desk.
‘It might not be what you think’ the hope kept whispering continously within me.

Drake’s POV
“Hey, you are finally leaving me right?” I said with a smile to Claire who dropped her luggage into the trunk of her car and closed it back.
She wore a white shirt over a blue jean bmshort. She must love bomshorts. She matched it with white sneakers. Her hair packed in ponytail. She wore a transparent eyeglasse.
She removed the eyeglass and smiled as she stood before me. We faced each other.
“C’mon we still gonna be getting intouch with each other,” she said.
I shrugged with a sigh. My hands in my short pockets.
“I will miss you Claire,” I said.
“I’ll miss you too Drake,” she said.
I drew near and kissed her forehead.
Her hair smell so nice.
I withdrew and she smiled.
“Thanks Drake, take care of yourself okay and don’t forget to do what I advised?”
she said.
“I will and take care of yourself too,” I said.
She nodded with a smile then hugged me, I pulled out my hands from my pockets
to return the hug. She kissed my cheek.
I smiled and kissed her cheek too.
She pulled away, still in smiles.
“Bye Drake,” she said and opened her car door.
“Bye Claire,” I said.
She hopped into her car and drove away.
I watched till her car was out of sight.
I breathed out.
‘She was nice and sweet. I’ll miss her.’
I headed to my suite.
‘About what she advised me, im gonna give it a try and it’s no one else but Brenda. If she calls again, im gonna pick up or maybe i’ll call her.’
I inhaled.
‘Clara is the reason for these all. If only I didn’t fall inlove with her.’
I saw Evan and Chelsea in the swimming pool. I waved at them.
“Come join us,” Chelsea shouted.
I smiled.
“I’ll be back!” I said and followed the staircase leading to my suite.
‘I need this swimming anyway.’

Clara’s POV
The last surgery was finally completed after three hours of operating on Mr Hoffsman.
Dr Rosh made records into the blue record file he held.
I pulled off the white gloves in my hands followed by the blue nose mask. Then I carried the tray of surgery tools.
“Anything else doctor?” I asked.
“No. Tell Dr Eril that his presence is needed here,” he said.
“Okay doctor,” I said and walked out with the silver tray.
I disposed the used tools and cleaned myself up, then headed to Dr Eril’s office.
Getting to Dr Eril’s office, I walked in to see the detectives, including the man, all sitted and talking with him. They stopped when they saw me. Sir Edwardo was absent.
‘I wonder what they are discussing with Dr Eril.’
“Doctor Eril, Dr. Rosh needs your presence at surgery room 5, where Mr John
Hoffsman was operated,” I said.
“Alright,” Dr Eril said and stood up instantly. The cops stood up too.
We all headed out.
I couldn’t keep my eyes off the man untill they were out of sight, making use of the hallway while Dr Eril went into an elevator.
‘That man, his face seem all familiar. What were they discussing with Dr Eril. He
is the doctor incharge of Dr Tony Campbell’s day to day checkings. Are they trying to know if there is any improvement on Dr. Tony.
I really hope Dr Tony wakes up soon, it’s taking time! But who is that man with them and why do he look so familiar to me?’
“Nurse Clara,” I turned to see Johanna walking towards.
“Johanna,” I smiled at her.
“How was the surgeries,” she asked.
“It was successful,” I said.
“The new cop, you saw him? but he’s retired,” she said.
“He’s a retired police officer?” I asked and she nodded.
“He look familiar to me, I wonder how. Anyways, im heading to my office. We’ll
talk after,” I said.
“Alright nurse Clara,” she said and walked off while I headed back to my office.
～
I sat on my chair and placed my hands on the table, taping my fingers on it in thought.
‘That man look really familiar. Where did I meet him? I can’t recall.
And Drake, I’ll put a call to Danelle.’
I picked my phone from my bag and called her. It rang and she picked up at the fourth ring.
“Danelle,” I called.
“Sister,” she responded, in her normal tone.
“How are you doing and how was your exams today?” I asked.
“It was fine sis and how is your work?”
“Fine.”
“Have you thought about what I told you?” she asked.
“Yeah. ” I answered.
“And you’ve realized that going back to Noah isn’t worth it right but giving Drake the chance?” she asked.
“Danelle can you just stop. I just wanna know if Drake finally had told you where he is,” I asked.
“No, he told me to let you know that he’s fine and good. But sister, do you really wanna see him? if you do, i’d try my best to tell me where he is,” she said.
“Kind of. I feel guilty for being the reason why he left. Maybe I could talk to him or something,” I said.
“Not just that sis, please give him a chance, please,” she said in a pleading voice.
I sighed. “It’s okay Danelle, I’ll call you later, bye,” I said and ended the call.
‘What’s wrong with this girl.
Everyone is against my decision.
How can I give Drake a chance?
I love Noah.
It’s not even possible.
Goodness, im so confused on this matter.
My back fell to the chair backrest and I rubbed my forehead with a sigh.

Brenda’s POV
“Wow, damn I love this dress in particular. You look damn good at it,” Nikky said as she stared admirably at me.
The clothes were delivered few hours ago by the Genestyle for my first shoots on saturday. The clothes, expensive as they are, both gowns, bikinis and lots of other marvelling clothes are just too beautiful, and perfect on me.
I can’t believe my luck!
“Hottest Model, Brenda Adams, face of Gebestyle, step out please,” she said and I
did the perfect catwalking with the black high heels, with curled heel lace tied up to the shin and laced with gold around the foot side of the heels. I got to the full length mirror and admired my elegant self.
“Soon my face would be all over the tv screen, in every home, in offices and every
damn place,” I said
“Ofcourse baby!” Nikky said, smiling.
“Im beautuful. I’ve got the perfect body and the curves so I deserve it,” I said as I
caressed my curly hair.
“Yeah you do,” she said.
I recalled Drake.
“Why do Drake reject a hot bae like me?” I asked, not expecting any answer tho.
I touched my Cleavage which appeared really seductive on the V curve dress neck.
“He doesn’t even pick my calls. What do he want that I can’t give?” I said and trailed my hands down to my hips.
“He’s foolish to ignore all this for some stinking looking crap of a girl! where the hell is he anyways!”
“Your phone is ringing B,” Nikky said and that was when I heard it.
I sighed and walked to my purse on the bed, took it out from the purse and was shocked to see the caller.
Drake!
I looked at Nikky, “Drake.”
She gasped then smiled. “Get his location,” she said.
I picked up the call, placing the phone to my left ear.
“Drake, finally you called me after a thousand missed calls from me,” I said with an excited smile.
“Brenda, did you say that you love me and want us to date?” he asked, astonishing me the more.
I smiled. “Yeah I love you so much Drake and I want to be yours alone,” I said and brought the phone off my ear.
The location read ‘Seashore Resort, Georgio, Texas.’
I smiled and placed the phone back to my ear.
“I wanna tell you that i’ve decided to give you that chance,” he said causing a hot
flow of excitement to rush through my spine.
I gasped.
“Really? Drake are you serious about it?”
“Yeah,” he said, sounding unsure but I don’t give a damn.
Im his already.
“I wanna see you tomorrow Drake, where are you please?” I asked.
It took him long seconds to answer.
“Seashore resort. I’ll be expecting you tomorrow,” he said.
I smiled. “I’ll be there tomorrow sweetie,” I said.
“Alright goodnight,” he said.
“Goodnight boyfriend,” I said and blew his a kiss.
He ended the call.
I jumped up.
“Oh my goodness! finally the bitch now knows he can’t resist me. Im gonna have him all to myself. Oh everything is just working perfectly!” I said.
Nikky smiled. “Are we gonna celebrate this?” she asked.
“Ofcourse!” I said, laughing excitedly.
“Where’s he anyways?” she asked.
“Seashore resort,”I said.
“Wow! I wonder what got into him,” she said.
I rolled my eyes excitedly.
“Whatever that did, im so his now. No bitch is gonna share him with me.” I said.
“Oh but what about you, won’t it be just him?” she asked.
I laughed.
“Mr Carlos promised a lot. I can’t miss them,” I said.
We laughed together.
‘Finally, Drake is mine.’
