Next morning...….
I watched him get dressed and helped him pack his clothes but said nothing. He asked if I wanted to stay at his place but I declined.
My P.A will take you home he said and I declined instantly. I'll take a cab, you don't have to worry I said. Is something wrong? He asked concerned.
No, of course not, I didn't want to bother you that's why. But I insist he said. I declined again and insisted on taking a cab.
I helped him bring his suitcases downstairs and saw his secretary waiting by the car.
Goodbye love he said and I forced a smile. Have a safe trip I said and turned to leave but he stopped me.
Something isn't right with you Olivia, what's wrong? Or, did do something wrong? he asked, concerned.
Nothing Dylan, hurry up you don't want to miss your flight. It's a private jet Olivia he said. Oh I see well you still you shouldn't be late I said. I'll be gone for a month and half, won't you miss me? Of course I will I said and pecked his lips.
I quickly hailed a cab and luckily found an empty one. Bye then I said and slipped into the cab.
It felt like I haven't seen my house in ages when I arrived. I cleaned the entire house and did all my laundry. My phone buzzed in my pocket. I checked it and saw a text from Dylan saying he had arrived. I sent him a short reply and turned off my phone.
I proceeded with my schedule and went to the hospital. The doctor looked elated to see me. Krystal, you look more different now, the last time I saw you was ten years ago. Aunty Mary was like a family to me she took me and Kathy in when we ran away from home.
So what brings you by today? I want to do a full body scan I said. She gave me a patient outfit and I quickly changed into it.
After the test I was sitting in her office, nervously waiting for the result.
She came in minutes later and didn't look happy. Krystal, I'll be straightforward with you she said. Have you ever had any miscarriage? Yeah not once but thrice actually I said. It may be a bit difficult for you to conceive Krystal. Is there any solution to it? I asked, forcing back my tears. Yeah but it's not 100% effective she said. She wrote me a prescription and I left.
I got home at noon and was just about to go to bed when I remembered my phone was still turned off. I turned it on and saw loads of missed calls and messages from Dylan.
I called him back and he picked up almost immediately. Olivia, why was your phone turned off? I was worried sick. I'm sorry…..I didn't realize I haven't switch it back on. It's fine, how are you doing? I'm about to sleep. What about you? I just came back from a conference meeting.
Turned out things here are pretty worse than I imagined. Take a good rest and you will be fine I said. Okay good night love. Hmm good night, I said.
