Episode 31
simeon and ben planned to check up on nancy the next day.
They hopped in simeonâs bentley and drove off to the hospital.
They alighted from the car and went in.
Ben called a nurse in the reception room as she was about vacating the room.
âsorry, please can you take me to doctor richardâs office?â
ben asked the nurse.
âoh! Yeah, just follow meâ
the nurse said and led the way to his office.
Simeon didnât follow them, he sat on a chair in the reception room.
The nurse knocked on the door twice but got no reply, she knocked again but still there was no reply.
âhello!â
doctor richard bellowed out to them as he was walking down the hallway and saw them at the entrance of his office.
âgood morning sir!â
the nurse curtsied in a gesture of respect.
âyeah Morningâ
doctor richard replied patting her on her shoulder.
âsir!, he said he want to see youâ
the nurse said refering to ben.
âalright You can goâ
doctor richard said and dismissed her.
âmorning sirâ
ben greeted and bowed his head a little.
âyeah morning mrâŠ.â
doctor richard replied trying to remember his name.
âben sirâ
he quickly helped him out.
âoh! Come inâ
doctor richard said and opened the door while they both went in.
Doctor richard went over to his seat and sat down, while ben sat on the visitorâs chair.
âmr ben, what happened?, you never came since five months now?â
doctor richard asked immediately they were done settling down.
âam sorry doc, it wasnât my fault, i planned on visiting but couldnât as i was detained in the police cellâ
ben said while doctor richardâs eyes popped open surprised.
âyou were detained?â
doctor richard asked and raised his eyebrows
âyeah, i was allegedly accused for murder and i was detainedâ
he said and added.
âbut the officers couldnât provide a proof but i was still held hostage since it had went viral, i was released two days ago and that was what proned me to be hereâ
doctor richard shook his head in pity for him, he wasnât really sure, if he was being told the truth.
He shrugged it off.
âsorry ben, do you want to see nancy?â he asked.
âyes sir!, thats the reason behind my coming hereâ
ben replied.
âalright, follow me to her ward.â
he said and stood up.
Ben also stood up and doctor richard led the way.
He opened the door and they both walked in.
Nancy turned back on the bed on hearing the opening of the door.
Ben gazed at her beaming with smiles but nancy never smiled.
She gazed back at him with hatred written allover her face.
Ben smile vanished immediately he sensed what was on her mind.
He knelt down before her.
âam sorryâ
he said with remorse.
But nancy never replied him, she kept staring at him as if to slap him.
âam sorry once again, am sorry for the pains i made you pass through, i never intend to betray your trust, am really sorryâ
ben said almost breaking down in tears.
Nancy said nothing as if his words fell on deaf ears.
âsorry mr ben, i guess you both had a misunderstanding, you can make it up to her when you both get homeâ
doctor richard said.
âis she discharged already?â
he asked as he stood up.
âyeah, she has been due since a month ago but i couldnât discharge her as you never showed upâ
doctor richard expatiated.
âiâm sorry about that sir, but sheâs good to go now right?â
ben further asked as he was contemplating on how he would make her understand what he went through just to save their marriage.
âyes now, i will discharge her nowâ
the doctor replied and summoned nancy to get up.
Nancy was reluctant to go home with ben, she now hate ben for the betrayal part he played and worst still, he never came to check up on her, she was heartbroken and just merely looking at him got her pissed off.
Doctor richard went back to his office and gave ben some files which contained the operations passed on her and some prescribed drugs which he was to buy.
Ben and nancy walked through the hospital hallway to the reception room, and no one said anything to each other.
Simeon walked up to them as heâd sighted them coming from afar.
He congratulated ben and nancy, while nancy acted as if they were cool with each other.
They walked to the waiting car and simeon drove them to their house.
No one talked all through the journey, simeon partly understood the awkward moments between them and didnât bother to bombard them with questions.
Nancy knew simeon backthen in school, she just behaved weirdly and acted if she never knew him but rather took him as benâs driver.
Simeon drove in as the gate parted ways for them to drive in.
He drove off as soon as simeon and ben alighted promising to visit the next day.
Nancy tried to avoid benâs gaze but couldnât as he kept staring at her as they walked in.
She never wanted to follow ben home but she had no choice than to follow him.
She promised herself to pack out from benâs house the next day.
She went straight to the visitors room to avoid discussion with ben, she shut the door immediately she was in.
While ben b@nged on her door repeatedly
