When The Tide Of The Heart Changes

Episode 14

THE PEAK OF COMPLICATIONS

Johnny was discharged after 3more weeks in hospital.

Doctor Frank made sure he was kept to make full recovery before discharging him.

Yvonne on her own part rarely left his side only going home to freshen up and cook him home made meals..

She told her mum she would be staying in her own personal apartment for the meantime so as to be free enough to stay with Johnny as long as it takes.

Doctor frank helped all the way through the discharging process.

Dropping them off to their apartment and helping him into his house.

Johnny took a long missing look at his house as he was guided in by Doctor frank.

The compound and his magnificent mansion seemed new to him after being away for such long time.

The whole compound was well kept and neat, obviously the handiwork of hassan.

He turned and gave Hassan an appreciative smile and nodded on his way in.

His only problem was who was responsible for what happened and why?

“You know am still trying to figure why someone would want me dead” He told Doctor Frank on getting to his sitting room and relaxing on the white leather cushion that adorned his sitting room.

“Seriously Mr Williams, I advice you lay low for now… the person responsible is still a mystery and nobody knows if he or she will attempt it again..”

“Attempt it again” Those words echoed into him and sent shivering dread into him.

who knows if he will survive it again if such happens again, he thought deep within.

It took Johnny about 1 more month to bounce back fully both from the wound and the traumer.

He regained his normal self and resumed work a week after.

But everything have changed in him, their is a craving deep down
him, a yearning that have over taken him and he knew it was all about Yvonne.

Suddenly he feels his world is perfect and complete because she was in it.

“Baby i want us to go out for dinner tonight” He whispered into her ears as they were watching television in his sitting room.

“But you know am about to cook now” She protested.

“Baby dont mind doing that today, tomorrow is another day” He said all smiles and teeth…

She went in to change wondering why all of a sudden he came up with the idea of them eating dinner outside tonight..

They drove into capelo chinese cuisine with Yvonne looking more radiant than ever clad in a red shinny shimmering long tight dinner gown, red heels and a little diamond tear necklace with her hairs packed to a single pony-tail at the back.

They sat at Johnny’s specially reserved seat with his name tag on top of the table.

Yvonne couldn’t help but notice the drastic change in the waiters and attendants, even Johnny himself was slightly different this particular night, wearing a broad grin,
shaking hands with most people he greet inside the restaurant.

“Your order sir”… the waiter expertly said as a plate of food was place in front of Johnny and Yvonne with the waiter popping a bottle of champaign to fill their glasses.

“Uuuuhm is it just me or is this waiters kindof weird tonight” Yvonne commented looking at Johnny.

“And i cant remember you ordering anything here..” she said again eyeing him.

Johnny smiled mischievously, opened his meal, revealing a well prepare Chinese rice with chicken source.

Yvonne followed as she opened hers, her eyes watered at the content which was nothing near food.

A gold slim ring with a perky little sparkling diamond stone perched gracefully on it making it reflect tiny bits of light from the surrounding.

Yvonne covered her mouth with her hands as he eyes widened transfixed on the ring before her..

Tilting her head up she saw Johnny kneeling on the floor with eyes looking watery and sparkling.

“Miss Yvonne Adesua…please will you share the rest of my life with me?…. out of great humility i ask ‘Will you marry me”
Yvonne stood up casting a glance all around the environment, Most people were now standing and all eyes were on her now.

The married women looked on with smiles probably remembering theirs.

She could see them asking her to say yes in their eyes, some were even giving slight nod.
The young girls were mostly looking, some already wishing their were the one standing there now.

She tilted her face downwards at Johnny, looking into his fierce searching eyes, she could make out an ocean of affection inside them, love born out of sincere affection.

“Yes…Yes i will marry you” whispered with both laugh and tears on her face.

Johnny picked the ring, she offered her fingers and the ring gracefully fitted in perfectly..

He dragged himself up and she jumped into his arms as their lips found each other and a loud ovation oozed from the people around. attendants popping numerous champaign for everyone around and Johnny announcing he would pay the bills of anything everybody takes.

(Actually this is exactly the way i have planned my future engagement…Oops just leaked my secret hope my future wifey doesnt see this…lolzzz)

“Baby we are going to your house from here, i want to meet your mummy for the first time officially, you know you’ve never let me meet her before.”

Johnny and his fiancee drove off to Yvonne’s house, yvonne already called her mum to announce she is coming with someone to see her.

They got to house and the gate flew open, Johnny drove in and his jaw dropped at the size of the massive compound, the numerous fleet of exotic cars and the crown jewel; a magnificent edifice that can easily pass for a castle.

Yvonne ran inside ahead of Johnny as he relaxed himself on the cushion taking in the flawless interior decoration of the house.

“Mummy mummy he proposed” Yvonne announced happily on joining her mum in the dinning flaunting her ring at the same time.

“woow thats an expensive ring….my little angel is no longer a little girl… am happy for you my love” Her mum remarked taking her in for a hug.

“mum he is waiting downstairs” Yvonne reminded her…

“Oh yes now lets go and finally meet him”..

Johnny tensed up, tilting his face forward as he heard foot steps approaching, it was obvious she was approaching with her mum.

Ok this woman looks familiar ” Johnny thought as the figure approached along side Yvonne.

“Noo it cant be” his heart shouted within.

He could make out that chubby size and figure, oooh that colour…

that fat cheeks….

Johnny was crossed face to face with Bimbo
