Good luck be giving her attitude

Mrs Brown could see through her that she is scared, and she might say no to her quest, so she decided to go around what she had planned to say.

"My son is dying, he may not tell you, but I think you should know, he has a terminal illness, and he might die anytime soon, but I will like him to be happy before he dies, and you seem to be the only one that can make him happy, so I am begging you, can you remarry him?

Her question sounded like a bomb in her ears, she looked around her, as if someone else is there that she is referring to, then she looked back at her and asked.

"What did you say?

Mrs Brown knows that what she is asking, would be difficult for her, but she is hoping that she will see it as an honor for her.

Amanda realised she is still on her knees so she said.

"Please get up, don't knee for me, it is very wrong, please get up".

Mrs Brown got up and pulled the seat close to her bed and looked at her pleadingly.

"You can help save my child, please I beg you, you are now a mother, I am sure you understand what it means to loose a child, please help me".

Amanda was quiet for a long time, thinking of how best to approach the issue, she blinked many times, as if she was loosing her sight, then she finally cleared her throat, but could still not say anything.

It is this sort of time, that she would have loved for her brother to come and intervene.

He had done it it before, showing up to defend her at the right time, she wouldn't mind having him come for her like that again.

She looked around her and since there was no one coming, she decided that it was time she spoke for herself.

"I am sorry Mrs Brown, but coming back with Dave is like lying to myself and also to him.

The remaining years he has, should be years if Joy and happiness filled, he shouldn't have any reason to feel like he is being lies to, he should be surrounded by people who love him and care for him.

I care a lot about him, but I don't or I cannot love him the way he wants, because I am inlove with someone

else.

But I promise to check up on him, and also talk to him".

Joy stood by the door, she heard everything Amanda had said, it made her happy to know that she is standing up for herself.

She expected that Mrs Brown would already be on her way by the time she have digested well what Amanda have said, but she sat there, as though she have lost her sense of understanding.

Joy decided to walk in, so that she knows that her time is up.

"Hey Amanda, your brother and your husband to be will soon be here, they are preparing your home coming, they want it to be a very good one.

Oh I have a big mouth, it is supposed to be a surprise and now I have spill it, please when you get home, act surprised okay?

Then she looked around her and giving Mrs Brown an annoying look she greeted her, but one could hear from her tone that she would rather not greet her.

"I guess I should be on my way, It was nice seeing you, and Amanda, please don't forget what I said, just think about it.

Emm, can we come for the home coming party, he would really love to come?

Joy was quick to dismiss her, before Amanda would say what she is not supposed to say.

"The party is for family members, not just anybody, so I don't think you will be allowed in".

Mrs Brown got the message and she nodded her head and walked away.

Amanda could tell that her friend made it all up.

She is not expecting any party, since Goodluck would not even take her call.

"So where are you going from here?

Joy asked her, bringing her back to reality.

"I will go to my parent's house, Maxwell's house or to a hotel".

She replied, not wanting to meet her eyes.

Joy laughed mockingly at her.

"You are really funny, so you think if you go to Goodluck's house, where you have been staying since like forever, he is going to ask you to leave?

His love is not that shallow, and he is not a baby, he knows things and he knows how to handle things, I am sure he will accept you".

"What if he doesn't speak to me, or even want to touch my child, I won't be able to handle it".

she confessed and Joy only continued to laugh.

By the way, where did you leave to with Maxwell, for almost a whole day?

Amanda was trying to change the topic, while speaking less of herself.

"Well, your brother and I decided to take a break from all the drama, you know, and I had a swell time".

She winked at her, and she could only feel jealous.

Joy is right, she is supposed to be enjoying her time with Goodluck, but it has been one fight or another.

"You are right Joy, I have to make my relationship with Goodluck work, I won't run away, I will go back to his house.

If I know him well, he would never ask me and my child to leave".

"Exactly, he would never do that, so even if he doesn't come to take you home today, Maxwell will take you to his house, and your mother will be there, just fight for him and show him that he is the only one you love, just like I have heard you say to that woman".

Amanda nodded her head and relaxed her back on the bed.

Her brother walked few minutes later and told her to start getting her things, that they are leaving immediately.

"Where is Goodluck?

She asked, but Maxwell ignores her.

He seem to be as angry with her, as Goodluck is.

Amanda got up from the bed, gathered a few things that belonged to her, and then changed her clothes.

"You are coming home with me, because right now, Goodluck is too angry with you.

I mean how can you allow Dave kiss you?

Amanda didn't answer him, it was when Joy carried Star, that she spoke to her brother.

"I am not going anywhere with you, I am going back to the house I know, and that is Goodluck's house, I know he is angry right now, but I have to make him understand that I didn't kiss Dave, he was the one that kissed me".

Maxwell didn't respond just like before, he nodded his head, and looked away, when they got outside, Amanda is shocked to find Goodluck in a Limo, with her mother, waiting for her.

She smiled broadly at him, but he didn't respond, he just looked sad and disappointed.
