𧑠VALERIE’S POV Continues π§‘
I brushed my teeth, took my bathe and pulled into a simple yellow dress…
I met Eva at the kitchen who was placing two plates of noddles and eggs.
I sighed and walked to the breakfast bar.
βNice dress Vale.. But i’do love the red instead..β She said.
βYour choice.β I said.
She walked to the fridge, got a pineapple juice with two glass cups.
She came back and dropped it on the centre between her plate of noodles and mine.
She then opened the juice and poured into my cup first, to the full and then poured just a little into hers.
βWhy this?β I asked.
βWhy what?β She threw back.
βYours is quite little.β I said.
βI ate this morning, remember you haven’t since yesterday.β She said.
βOh.β I rolled my eyes.
βEat up.β She said.
βIm not really hungry. I don’t even have the appetite too. All I think of right now is Joy.β I said.
βAnd that’s why you need to eat up so you could get the strength to think about him the more.β She said.
I sighed.
βTake the fork Vale.β She said
I sighed again and picked the fork.
βNow eat.β Eva said.
βOh im not an adultbaby Eva.β I said with a smile.
Just this reminded me of Joy’s childish manner.
βPeople who thinks about an adultbaby tends to act like one.β She laughed.
βThis isn’t funny Eva.β I said.
βOhh I know. Just eat up dearie so we could head back to the hospital.β She said.
I ate a spoon.
𧑠EVA’S POV π§‘
Now, we are heading back to the hospital.
I feel for my friend alot.
I now understand how deeply she love this Joy.
Well, Valerie has always been this way, falling inlove all the time.
I just pray Joy wakes up soon, so my friend could be herself again.
And Iyke… He really have to pay for this.
𧑠VALERIE’S POV Continues π§‘
We got to the hospital.. and we walked straight in… To the room Joy is.
We were almost at the door when we sighted Maureen about to open the door.
βMaureen?β I called.
She turned with a smile.. But this smile wasn’t a bright smile.
βGoodmorning Doctor.β She greeted.
βWhat are you going in there for?β Eva asked.
βDr. I heard someone so dear to you is in there.β She said to me.
βThat’s not the answer to the question I asked.β Eva said.
βIt’s fine Eva. Im sure she means no harm. Mom is in there remember?β I said.
βMatron Juliet told me something.β She said.
βWhat?β I asked.
βShe told me that the person in there might be my lost brother for ten years.β She said and her face fell
βYour lost brother?β Eva and I said together.
She nodded.
βI dearly need to see if it’s him.β She said.
βIf it’s who?β I asked curiously.
βMy brother.βShe said.
βHis name!β
βJoy.β She answered.
I gasped. Eva gasped.
I rushed to the door, pushed it open and went in.
The two followed.
My mom was in, on the chair and going through her phone.
βIs this your brother?β I asked her.
Maureen stared closely.
βIt’s Joy Graneson. It’s my brother. It’s Joy!β Maureen bursted into a cry.
I swallowed.. This isn’t true or is it?
βHe had no dreadlock ten years ago. What happened to him. Joy wake up. Where did you leave me and sister to?β Maureen cried and went wild.
Eva rushed to hold her while mom stood baffled just like I was.
But Eva wasn’t quick enough.. Maureen had shook him with force and the machine started beeping loudly.
βBrother!β Maureen was screaming.
I got myself and rushed to Joy, but just then, I saw his hand shake.
His finger moved! followed by the next finger, then the next…
Suddenly the beeping stopped.
βJoy is waking up.β I mumbled.
βBrother…β Maureen mumbled, wiped her tears and stood up.
I placed my hands on his cheek.
βHe’s waking up.β Eva said.
And just then, he opened his eyes a bit.
βJoy.. Joy My sweet heart. You are awake.β I said and kissed his forehead.
βBrother.β Maureen said and came forward.
Joy looked at her.
His etes were still weak and im sure his ision is still blur.
βBrother..β Maureen called again and Joy stared at her.
βIt’s me Brother.β Maureen said and came more closer.
βJoy?β I called.
He glanced at me before staring back at Maureen.
Then he closed back his eyes..
βJoy?β I called.
βBrother please you have to open your eyes.β Maureen said.
βJoy please open your eyes again, you cant go back to unconsiousness.β I said as tears rolled down my eyes.
Eva and mom were behind, watching.
βBrother please open your eyes.β Maureen said.
I glanced at her.
She’s Joy’s sister..Oh my goodness.
Joy would have to say that, let him just wake up.
And just that instant, he opened his eyes and his eyes fell on Maureen.
The way he looked at her was unexpected and weird.
βMauree?β He called, looking confusely at her.
βBrother..β Maureen answered with tears.
βWhat im I doing in a hospital on… a cona bed. Where’s Nancy.β He asked, staring at her.
What?
I felt dumbfounded. Joy didn’t speak in staccato and childishly… He spoke in legato.. smoothly and in a connected manner.
I glanced at Eva and she was just as dumbfounded as I was.
Mom just stared.
I turned back to Joy.
He didn’t even look at me.
He was only staring at Maureen.
βBrother, sister Nancy is married with two kuds now.β Maureen said.
βMarried? I don’t understand. When did she get married, yesterday? wasn’t it yesterday we talked about her celebrating her birthday? Oh oh.. Go call her for me.β He said.
βBrother this isn’t Abuja.. We are in lagos.β Maureen said and started crying again..
He gasped.
βLagos? how?β
βBrother, I don’t know how you got to this state. It was ten years ago that you got lost. We didn’t find you. Dad was doing everything to find you but then he suddenly stopped and closed up the search! Talking about sister’s birthday, that was ten years ago.β Maureen said.
βTen what? What happened to me Maureen.. ans who are these?β He asked, referring to us.. Me, Eva and mom.
Who are we?
Maureen didn’t answer, she began crying.
I swallowed hard.
Someone tell me that what Joy just asked is nothing but a joke cos I can’t bear it!
I took his hand and he looked at me.
βJoy don’t you remember me? Valerie.β
I asked, staring into his eyes.
βI don’t know you. I just need to get up from here and find out what the hell happened to me.β He said and tried to get up but fell back immediately cos he felt pains at his abdomen.
He groaned.
βWhy am I feelig incredible much pains there?β He asked.
βYou got shot by Iyke last two days in my house while I was at work.β I explained to see if he’do remember.
βI got shot? I don’t know what you are talking about.β He said.
βPlease Joy. You have to remember. Yoy have to remember me. Aunty Valerie. You use to call me that. I saved you.β I said.
He touched his hair and flinched with shock but groaned cos he the pains came again.
βWhat the hell im I doing with a dada?β He asked.
Hot tears trimmed down my eyes.
Eva came forward and placed her hand on my shoulder.
βHe just regained his memory back and you know things like this happens. You shouldn’t be suprised.β She said.
βYeah I know but he don’t remember me Eva, can you even believe that?β I asked as more tears poured.
βMaureen.β He called but Maureen was seriously crying.
βHe don’t remember us Eva. He don’t know me anymore.β I cried.
βIm sorry Miss or Mrs, but I have to be honest here, Im confused.. I don’t know who you are.. Someone should make me understand. I had a flight to Canada see Dad, the next day after Nancy’s birthday.β He said, touching his forehead.
βBrother that was ten years ago!β Maureen said amidst her tears.
βWhat?β He gasped.
