I Love My Life

Episode 23

The Story Continues As Told By Williams And Jegede……

We didn’t know what happened but we saw someone lying in a pool of his own blood. We rushed to the scene and saw Wally sprawled on the floor. He wasn’t breathing and his head was shattered. Blood glistened on his face while torrents gushed from the mouth. We were shocked
to the marrow and would have loved to watch from the distance if not that, he was one of us.
“Give him space!!!!!” Someone shouted. His tux was already mated and reddish in color and we shivered because we were afraid he was dead.

We observed Kosi, she was nervous and shaky and lacked composure… Was she the one that did it? But we didn’t wait to get answer. The more we wasted time, the farther he drifts away from earth. Williams pulled off his expensive tux, he didn’t want to lose it.

Jegede did the same too and it all
went into Tricia’s arm. She was afraid and tears were falling off her eyelids…
“He’s dead,” someone announced.

The music stopped and everywhere went silent for a while. Wally was dead! Even a pin drop could be heard in the large auditorium.

Everyone stood still in shock as if a passage rite was been offered. Then someone wailed loudly and other voices followed. Mostly were girls.

We touched each other and then rushed to where Wally lay. Williams felt his pulse but there was no sign. We observed him for a while before Celine came… She was with a stestocope.

“Am a student of medicine and surgery in the university of Florida.”
She flashed her ID to us and we withdrew. She unbuttoned his tux and we helped her pull it off. She pulled off the shirt too, revealing Wally’s sexy packs. She felt his whole body and checked his heartbeat. She equally checked his pulse and observed every other thing. She checked the bleeding and shook her head.

Celine: He’s lost a lot of blood and he’s got a weak pulse. Can someone help me?
Almost everyone wanted to help. Everyone loves Wally!! He was a cool headed guy, humble and perseverance. Everyone always wanted to associate with him. What else? No one wants Wally dead. We carried him to his car and Williams took over the
wheels. Celine joined in the car and the party was obviously over. Jegede took the keys to Williams car to take Tricia and Kosi home while other cars went along to the hospital.

As Told By Williams
We were met with stiff resistance when we got to the NAUTH. The nurses were so reluctant to hear us out and weren’t paying attention while Wally kept on bleeding. I cuddled him in my arm, never letting go of him. Everyone were fuming with rage at the challant attitude of the medical staffs. What was the hospital meant for?

The delay went on for like an hour before Celine finally had enough and called her dad who asked to speak with the man in charge. After the call ended, Wally was taken to the emergency ward where he was cleaned up and given treatments.

Blood was brought from the university blood bank and administered to him even though everyone wanted their blood to run in Wally’s vein.

After 2hours of treatment, even Celine joined the host of doctors… Wally was moved to the lab were a test was conducted and it was observed he had a
brain defect before he was moved to the VIP ward. .

But he never opened his eyes….. Even as we shouted and cried for him to wake up. His possibility of staying alive will be a miracle, the doctors said as the night faded away for a new dawn.
