119 Back Home II (1/2)
You shouldn't be running ma'am.... Chiamanda said as she ran after the boss. She pulled out her phone and called Bones but he didn't answer the phone.
Sky pulled out her phone and dialled Anton's number again but it wasn't connecting. You are fine Anton, you are ok. Please be allright for me, I promise I'll follow all your rules, she said talking to herself.
As she reached the car...she fumbled for her keys in herbag. My car keys, she screamed at Chiamanda.
Calm down ma'am, I”ll drive. Please sit at the back ma'am.
Noo please hand me my keys, Sky said wiping the tears of her face.
Where are you rushing too, and what makes you think you can drive yourself in the state you are in.
I'm not in any state...I don't have a disease, I am fucking pregnant. Sky froze as she recognized the voice....she turned back and saw Anton standing not too far from her.
Anton! She cried out as she ran to him.
Hey did you miss me that much...Anton said as he opened his arms to catch her. Don't run Sky....I'm right here. He didn't notice she was crying until she was in his arms. She was sobbing and shaking at the same time.
Sky what is it? He asked rubbing her back. She didn't answer him so he signalled Chiamanda who was standing by Sky's car.
Chiamanda ran to him with a bewildered look. Mr Anton, are you allright?
Yes I am, did something happen, why is she like this?
We got a call from Stones that you were in an accident. We were just rushing to the hospital.
What?? Anton asked surprised.
Chiamanda please where's the food from Mr Jide? Sky asked interrupting their conversation, and pulling away from Anton's arm.
Under my desk ma'am. Chiamanda replied her.
Ok get rid of it....give it to a dog or something. Remember, be careful. Tell Bones and Stone to meet me at the estate.I'll see you tomorrow dear. Anton please let's go home, you must be tired.
She walked straight to the passengers sit as Anton collected the keys from Chiamanda.
Are you ok? Anton asked her as he got into the car. You look pale
I'm fine, I'm just glad you are ok. How would you feel if you get a call that your bestfriend was in a serious accident? Pleasewake me when we get home, she continued. not waiting for his response.
Ok Anton said looking at her before he focused on his driving. He watched her from the corner of her eyes as she drifted to sleep. She looked different and even lost weight a bit. How long has he been out of the country, for his Sky to be like this? He sighed as he drove home.
He's been home before, he came home straight from the airport, he thought Sky would be at home...when he didn't see her, he changed into a Jean and polo and rushed to the office. He switched off his phone this morning cause he's battery was low, so he didn't bother carryinghis phone out.
Anton didn't want to disturb Sky, after they got home. He carried her princess style as he opened the door. He opened the door to her room, put on the air-conditioning and place her gently on the bed. As he stood up to leave, Sky held his hand.
How did you get home and why didn't you take your car? She asked him
Sleep, we'll talk about it when you you wake up.
No i'm fully awake now, I want to know why you didn't take your car.
When you sent me a text through my other number...I knew something was wrong and when you told me Mr Jide was behind the whole thing...I became cautious.
Remember I left my car at the airport and paid for parking space for five days cause I have a friend who works at that department.
But something strange happened after I arrived at the airport. Someone was waiting for me with my name written boldly on a cardboard. I walked past him to see if he knew me, but he didnt. So I asked him who sent him and he said it was Mr Jide. He pulled out his phone to check his new message, it was a picture of me. He smiled and wanted to help me with my bag. But I refused.
