Where is Good luck?

The men turned to see Amanda seated on the bed, what she had just said was something Goodluck hadn't expected, he really didn't understand why she wanted to stay back with the Browns, when it was obvious they want her dead, and out of their lives.

Goodluck wasn't going to give up without a fight, he couldn't loose her, not after finding her and luckily for him he had found her when she was vulnerable, she was grieving her son, when he found her, and he had decided to stick around some more, he even got an apartment immediately so he could stay around, then this happened, her mystery pregnancy happened and he knew he was needed now more than ever.

"Amy, you cannot stay there, they don't want you, they don't want you alive, please" Goodluck said, moving close to her, and holding her hands, but she removed her hands from his hold.

"I said, I am not moving out, he is my husband, and I am staying".

Once again, Maxwell was made to watch as they showed affection to each other, he still couldn't believe what he had heard, he was truely happy for his friend, he had gone through so much, so much struggle, but now he seemed happy and so does Amanda even though she was good at pretending infront of him, he knows it's only out of respect.

"I cannot move in with you, what do you think people would say, they would think you are the father of my unborn child, they would think I have been unfaithful to my husband all these while, and we would only make them right. I need to be there, I need to see the end of this, and until this mystery is unraveled, I am sorry I cannot move out".

Goodluck didn't want to push further, he felt dejected, this was not what had expected to hear from her, but since that was how she feels, he could not do anything to change her mind.

"I hate it, when people think and care so much about the world, when the world, cares less about them".

"Please, try and understand me". Amanda tries to say, but Goodluck didn't want to hear if it.

He stood up and walked out of the room without saying another word. He did not even look back, he too could not control his anger, he wanted the best for her, even if she doesn't want to be with him, atleast, she could be with someone else, she could be at another place, he has one million and one place where she will stay without him in the picture, but he would be sure, that she was okay.

Amanda watch him walk out, though she wanted to stop him, and make him understand her reasons, but it was late, he was already out, and he looked really sad, she had never seen him in such mood before, now she was left with her brother who obviously didn't know what to say or where to start to say what he wants to say.

" I think Goodluck is right, (her brother started, coming close to her, to give it a shot) you may not move in with him, but you could move in with mum and Dad or me if you are so worried about what people would say,  but you just cannot go back to that house, they don't want you, and it would be seen as foolishness to be walking into a danger zone.

I mean, look at you, you are pregnant, you cannot fight alone, you need to move out, when the case is sorted out, Dave will come back to look for you.

Maxwell said, hoping this would solve the issue, but then again, she didn't want it.

"I am sorry, I am going to have to object, this is my fight, can you guys just understand and let me handle this myself, if I feel I cannot take what they throw at me anymore, and I want to leave I will surely let you know, but for now I need to go back to that house.

Maxwell knew it would be hard arguing with an angry pregnant woman, he nodded and also left the room. He too didn't look back, he just walked away.

With both of them out of sight, she started sobbing. It was already getting harder for her, and she could never stop crying. Her life was a mess, and she keeps messing it up the more.

she understood perfectly that they only wanted what's best for her, but she couldn't just run away, she couldn't just leave her house for Tracy, she just couldn't.

When she woke up she heard something about father, adoption she wasn't really sure, but she wanted to hear about it, but the people to let her in on the gist were angry with her for wanting to fight her battles alone, she smiled wearily, she needed Goodluck at the moment, she wanted him close to her, she wanted him to cuddle her till she falls asleep, but he was no where around.

After about an hour she was getting bored seeing just her brother shuffling from her mother's ward to hers, and later it was her father who had come to visit, she learnt about what Dave had done from her brother and how her brother had called him back to spite him.

She also got the full gist from Maxwell about what Goodluck had said earlier as regards meeting his father, she was nervous, she didn't know how he would see her or what he would think of her, though that was something she could always think of later but at that moment she wanted Goodluck by her side.

"Where did he go?

She asked her brother, she had rehearsed in her mind how to ask her brother about Goodluck but she didn't know how, so she summoned all the courage she could to ask, Maxwell acted like he didn't know who she was referring to so she rephrased her question, still not meeting his eyes.

"Where is Goodluck?
