Chapter 2 The Bearer Of Good News

It's been two days now, I have searched the Hospitals and the morgue but she is nowhere to be found, "what could have happened to her."

She's all that I got Leonard said, obviously worried and restless.

you have me, Jayden cuts in, you have Edward who is more like a brother to you, man I will never leave your side, and believe me, your grandma will turn up safe and sound.

I have equally called all the hospitals and morgues, I sent her picture to all the tv stations, I posted her picture all over the city and the social media, and I announced it on all the radio stations.

believe me, she will soon be found, Jayden said while patting Leonard's back.

Thanks, man I don't know what I would have done without you Leonard said without looking at Jayden.

no need to thank me, man what are friends for am also fond of lady Diana. just then the door opened... interrupting their conversation.

forgive me for not knocking sir but this is important. Please miss, repeat what you told me earlier Sandra said turning to the stranger beside her.

hello, I am Isabel and lady Diana sent me here, Leonard rushed towards her, not waiting for Isabel to complete her speech.

tell me my grandmother is ok, please.

calm down Sir, I managed to pull her out of the car unharmed but she gave me this before she became unconscious and she's still like that for the past two days.

I gave them all the money I had on me but since they need more I have to look for her relatives, and I know her family will be worried about her Isabel said.

please take us to her Jayden cuts in.

she's at the outskirt of the town in a small clinic in a remote village nearby not too far from here, am sorry I should've come earlier but I didn't want to leave her alone Isabel said.

what are you waiting for, take me to my grandma? Leonard replied almost screaming.

I will drive buddy because you are not in the condition to drive, Jayden said as he snatched the car keys from Leonard.

Almost two hours later they arrived at the clinic, Holy care clinic, Isabel was praying that they get there safely because Jayden kept speeding and running the traffic lights, she heard Mr. Leonard call him Jayden.

Jayden and Isabel waited at the reception, when Leonard saw his grandma, he hugged her tightly.

the old lady murmured, "is that my Leo?"

Leo was so happy because of the doctor's assurance that she will be ok.

Lady Diana regained consciousness immediately Isabel left to fetch her grandson.

meanwhile, Isabel was so happy that her old friend was in a stable condition so she decided to leave. I will be right back Mr. Jayden I have to go freshen up and change since my friend is in good hands.

thank you so much miss Isa, can I call you that, Jayden asked in a low voice.

Isabel nodded gently

we are grateful for what you did for us Jayden continued.

alright Mr. Jayden I need to go freshen up now, see you later. Isabel left without looking back.

A few days later, Grandma was back in the new yoke and kept asking for her granddaughter.

but grandma I am your only grandchild, no My Leo I heard her tell the nurses to please save her grandma, she's beautiful and so kind, she saved my life. Lady Diana said.

okay, Granny, you are talking about the good lady that saved your life Leonard asked. Her name is Isabel Leonard continued.

Yes my Leo the old lady managed to say.

My granny I will do everything in my power to find her I promise, Leonard, assured Lady Diana.

I trust you my dear grandson lady Diana said quietly.

But grandma I already know that she's a beautiful and a kind person so I will find her and reward her for saving your life, maybe a car, house, a job and some cash, whatever her demands are will be met Leonard said with confidence.

My boy come and sit beside me, Grandma Diana said while smiling at her grandson, Leonard sat beside her without hesitation.

ok, granny what do you have to say Leonard asked?

my Leo everything you just mentioned, the house, car and the rest of them are all ok but why don't you marry her, a woman so beautiful and kind like her will make you happy for the rest of your life.

besides you need a strong lady by your side to pull you out of any misery in the future as she pulled me out of the burning car, Lady Diana said.

grandma, Leonard pretends to cough I need to go get water, Leonard cunningly said.

my grandson is trying to fool me but what am saying makes sense.

no, it doesn't, grandma stop having those ideas. Leonard said trying to sound serious.

oh, so the cough miraculously goes away, my grandson is trying to trick me, grandma said.

Yea grandma you caught me this time but you are the one that got some funny ideas. Leonard said trying not to laugh.

yea funny indeed, grandson I am funny... your grandma is very funny!!!
