Chapter 2 Two

"Hello." Yvonne said with a weak voice as if she had already been crying.

"Yvonne its Samuel, please don't hang up on me." He pleaded because he knew Yvonne very well. She was disciplined, straightforward, blunt and very rude.

"What do you want?" She shouted. "Look, I can explain"

"There's nothing to explain Samuel. You cheated on me, you never told me, and now you have a child. What is there to explain again? "

"I'm sorry Yvonne; you should listen to my side of the story."

"Oh, you want me to listen to the fact that you fucked someone else and never told me about it?" She mimicked.

"You have no case here Samuel. You fucked this up. You fucked us up and you hurt me bad. We are over. I hope you enjoy your new life." Yvonne Said without remorse and hanged up on him.

Samuel sighed as he buried his face in his palm.

"I missed my engagement party today." He said as he looked at Vera. She nodded, encouraging him to continue.

"Yvonne and I have been dating for over a year now. I never told her about what happened between us. Trust me, I wanted to tell her about you, but was so embarrassed about it. I knew she was going to freak out and break up. I decided to make it official and propose to her today. You know, it was supposed to be a surprise, which I planned with my parents, Siblings and some close relatives. But your call came in this afternoon and I had to rush down here." He said.

"I'm so sorry." Vera replied.

"You have nothing to be sorry for Vera." He said as he gave her hand a light squeeze.

"I'm now wondering, if I ever loved her." Samuel said and Vera gave him a weird look.

"You guys dated for over a year. Of course there must be some sort of chemistry."

"Maybe, But it's all over now. She broke up with me and mom is disappointed with me." Samuel said and Vera gave him a pity look.

"It's okay Vera. None of this is your fault." He said.

"It will be fine. Your mom is just hurt but trusts me, she will come around." Vera said with a sad smile as she gave his hand a light squeeze and he nodded.

Before they could go any further with their discussion, Dr Peters interrupted them as she

came to check how Vera was doing.

"How is my baby doing?" Vera asked with a sad smile.

"Good and healthy, He's asleep already." Dr Peters replied.

"OH, I was thinking of checking up on him before I go to bed." She said disappointed.

"Don't worry; you can do that tomorrow morning. My shift is over so I will see you tomorrow." Dr Peters said after which she gave Vera a warm hug. She requested to see Samuel outside for a second and they both walked out of Vera's ward.

After Samuel shut the door behind him, Doctor Peters took out an envelope from her lab coat and handed it over to him.

"The DNA result," She mumbled.

Even though Samuel knew deep down that the baby was his, he just wanted something to confirm his thought. He quickly opened the envelope. Lo and behold, the result confirmed his thought. He is the biological father. A sad smile crept into his face.

He quickly held out his hands and took Dr Peters hands into his. Dr Peters was just in her early 40's, married and a mother of four.

"Please do all it takes to save the both of them. I cannot imagine my life without them." He said sincerely.

"Your baby will be fine but I'm not sure about Vera." She replied.

"Please. Just do anything. I don't mind paying a huge amount." He pleaded.

"This is far beyond our power Samuel. Vera has a weak heart. She refused to take treatment for a long period and that has caused so much damage. I'm afraid she might give up anytime from now."

"Samuel sighed as he buried his face into his palm. The thought of his son growing up without his mother is killing him already. Even though Samuel and his mom aren't in good terms at the moment, he cannot imagine his life without her."

"I also wanted to ask if you guys had come up with a name for the baby. We need to enter his details into the certificate."

"We will sleep on that Doctor Peters. The name will by ready by tomorrow morning." He replied.

"Alright then, I will see you guys tomorrow." Dr Peters gave her goodbye and left.

Samuel returned to Vera's room. He took a seat beside her.

"We need to finalize a name for our son." He said.

"Hmm okay," She replied.

MY LOVE

"You can pick his first name while I chose the middle name." He said.

"Alex... " she replied and he nodded.

"Alex Ivan Michel. I love the sound of that." He chuckled and took Vera's hands into his. His expression changed.

"Please promise me you will fight this. We need you Vera. Alex needs you." He whispered and tears welled up in Vera's eyes immediately.

"I really want to Samuel but I don't think I can. I really want to watch my baby grow and call me mama but I don't think that's ever going to happen." She said as the tears began to fall.

"This heart disease is hereditary. From my mum's side, It killed my mom and now, me. Please take very good care of Alex so it doesn't affect him also." She said in tears and Samuel embraced her into a hug.

After Samuel managed to calm her down, they were able to tell each other about their lives. Samuel told Vera about his family and work while Vera on the other hand did not have much to say. She never knew her dad. It was just she and her mom who passed away six years ago.

After Vera fell asleep, Samuel called Tuga and explained everything to him. He begged his best friend that he needs some time off to take care of his family, That Vera and his son needs him.

Vera smiled when she heard Samuel call she and Alex his family. She had always wanted a family but never had that privilege. She hopes her son gets to enjoy not all what she ever enjoyed.

Samuel jumped up from the couch he was sleeping on when he heard a very loud sound. It was Vera's scream, which overtook the beeping sound of the Monitor.

He walked as fast as his leg could take him towards Vera who was lying on the hospital bed in tears as she clutched her chest tightly as if she was in pain.

Samuel panicked and ran out of the room to get help.

Eventually, he was able to get a Doctor and a nurse who followed him immediately to Vera's ward. However, they told him to wait outside the ward as they attended to her.

Samuel has never been as scared in his life as he was now. He prays nothing happens to Vera. He was just getting to know Vera. He cannot afford to lose her now. Besides, Alex needs his mom.

About 12 minutes later, the Doctor came out from Vera's ward and Samuel turned to him for answers.

"Will she be okay?" He asked in fear.

"We are loosing her Mr Michel. However, she said she wants to have a word with you. I'm

so sorry." The middle age doctor said as he gave Samuel a light squeeze on his shoulder.

Samuel nodded sadly and entered Vera's ward. She was already lying down on the bed. However, her heart rate was not normal. One could tell from the monitor.

When Vera saw Samuel approaching him, she tried to sit up.

"No, no, you shouldn't stress yourself Vera." Samuel said as he sat beside her on the hospital bed and burst into tears immediately as he remembered in few more minutes that remain left alone to look after his son. He knew nothing about children. Where will he start?

Vera saw Samuel crying and she started tearing up. She took Samuel hands in hers and looked him in the eye and said

"Promise me you will take very good care of yourself and Alex. Please promise me."

"It's not going to be easy Vera. However, I will try. I will try my best to be the best father to Alex." He said in tears and Vera nodded.

"It pains me that I won't be here to watch him grow. Please let him know he is the best thing that has ever happened to me. You and Alex will always have a place in my heart and I will always be watching you both up there." Vera said in a raspy voice.

"We will miss you Vera so much." Samuel said in tears and Vera gave him a sad smile. Who knew Samuel Earl Michel could also be emotional.

"Here's the key to my apartment. Some of Alex things are there. Few clothes and toys I bought for him. You can pack them. Then also, the few clothes I have, you can send them to the orphanage. The property owner's number is on the fridge in my apartment, you can get back to him to return the apartment keys. Then I have some change in my account. I was keeping it for Alex, in case you do not show up. But now that you are here, maybe I will just use it to pay for the hospital bills." She said.

"The bills are covered. I've settled them." He said.

"Okay then. Please just keep my card then. You can use the money for Alex or give it to the orphanage," She said as she handed him her card.

As soon as the card reached Samuel hand, Vera screamed as she clutched her chest with her right hand. She was in pain again.

The doctor entered Vera's ward but this time with two nurses as they came to attend to Vera.

Samuel stood in shock as tears continued falling from his eyes. He watched as the doctor and nurses did what they could to save Vera. However, unfortunately, she gave up her ghost. It all happened in front of him. It was like a film trick.

"She's gone." He whispered as he fell on the ground and cried his heart out.

Samuel had never felt lonely before in his life. He had to bear this pain alone. There was no one he could lean on. No one to tell him it is going to be all right. It was just him and his son who was still fighting for his life in the incubator.
