When will it be my turn
" But I want the business to grow even more, a friend told me that if I can get people from the government, I will be making so much money". He said, and Goodluck had to stand up.
"People always think, only the government, have the money and the connection, they are just controllers, they don't have anything, there are some private individuals, that are richer than the government". Goodluck said and Maxwell nodded.
"You are very correct my friend, but you know why people look at the government that way, because, when you have power, you sure have almost everything you need". Maxwell said, and Amanda rolled her eyes as she was already getting bored with the story.
Now that her brother have joined them, she was left out, she decided to change the topic.
"Whose turn is it to stay with mum today? Her question seem to surprise everyone, just out of the blues, she was asking a question she already knows the answer.
"Husband and wife will stay together".
Amanda liked the fact that they were all looking at her now, she smiled and nodded, she already knows that today is her father's turn to stay back at the hospital with her mother, while the next day would be her turn, they had decided to take it in turn to stay with her.
"When will it be my turn? He asked, and they all smiled, he is already back with his family.
They were like one big family. It was getting late and they needed to start going home, the weather was changing and it could start raining anytime soon. Amanda was already feeling hungry and had been opening her mouth in an unlady like manner. Every one in the room could see she was hungry and tired, even her mother who was now awake and was happy to find her family with her also noticed it and gave her brother sign to take her home which he was about to do when his father grabbed her by the hand and took her outside telling them he was coming.
They went to a canteen close to the hospital where he ordered for food for her, she started eating immediately but noticed her Dad was staring at her, she had been avoiding having any private time with him because of this sort of look he was giving her, but now she couldn't escape it anymore, he also wanted to ask her if Goodluck was responsible for her pregnancy.
She didn't want to spoil her mood or loose her appetite so she continued to eat, and was happy her Dad didn't interrupt her. The food was very good though looking at the place it shouldn't be called a canteen, it could pass for a 5star restaurant.
She hadn't spoken to her father privately since her ordeal started, and she knew now was the time, she was sure never going to have rest in this life, but maybe in her next world, she would definitely come as a princess with maids and servants at her call.
"Daddy I know what you have in mind, you can at least stop staring at me like that, and just ask me what you want to ask".
She said not appreciating the look anymore and just wanted to get it over with.
"Is Goodluck...
"No father"
She didn't let him finish his question.
"He is innocent Dad, he didn't do this, but one thing I know for sure is that, someone was trying hard to hurt me, and the person succeeded, just that I don't have an idea of how it happened, but I am ready to do just anything to find out what happened and how I ended up pregnant"
Her father had anticipated her response, he had heard that this line of words were what she has been saying to everyone since and it only surprised him more.
Have you ever woken up in a strange place before feeling weird?
She wasn't expecting her father to try to play detective just like every one else, a d this was usually the first question they would ask, but she was okay to know he believed her, and was willing to help her find answers, but she was going to disappoint him as she said No.
That would have been their only lead, and it would have helped. The only place she knew she had fallen asleep without knowing, and had woken up fully dressed in the arms of a man was her second meeting with Goodluck after they reunited.
She tried to think hard about it, but she was sure, Goodly would never do anything to her.
"Then we have to do something, and do it fast, if you are so sure you didn't do anything, then I think your pregnancy is spiritual. Though this is the hardest thing I have had to do, I would go to the village to see the village head spiritualist, I am sure he can help"
Amanda was shocked, her father was a strong Catholic, a good Christian, he hated anything that seemed diabolic, and would frown at any form of idolatry, she opened her eyes in disbelief, she couldn't allow her father do something like that so she had to say something immediately.
"Daddy, I would never forgive myself if you do something that terrible for my sake, don't worry Goodluck and Maxwell are investigating it, you know how good they are at finding out things, please give them time and everything would be fine.
Please do not pay any visit to any spiritualist or any spiritual home for that matter"
He really didnt want to, but he just said so to see her reaction, and to see if she would say something to help him, he also wanted to put an end to the drama, he could already imagine people calling him names and insulting him. He could imagine people questioning his parenting, he was worried now, even with Goodluck coming back to their lives he was more worried.
Now no one would believe that Goodluck is not the one responsible, they will all think, he has come out to take his responsibility.
