Odette's hands trembled as she held the phone, her eyes fixed on Roland's pale face . She had tried calling the emergency number, but it seemed like something was going wrong with the network as she had been dialling for eternity and it seemed like connecting through was difficult.Suddenly the thought of the doctor that usually comes around to takes care of them crossed her mind. Odette quickly scrolled through her contacts and dialed their homey doctor's number while taking a deep breath, trying to calm herself down before the doctor would come on the line.As the phone rings her heart continued to bear faster, and finally he picked up, Odette could not waste a second to get to the point. "Hello, doctor. Please get here as soon as you can. My husband is dying" she said, her words tumbling out in a rush."What is it, Miss Harper? Please, slow it a little bit down so I can hear you" doctor asked as he seemed to had barely heard a thing from what Odette said. "Please my husband is dyin

Roland was laid on the bed right in his room through the help of Odette. Since the hospital was unable to dictate what the nature of his sickness was, constantly treating heart failure and believing that was the case and yet nothing to show for it.The moment hospital noticed Roland's sickness was beyond what they could handle, they asked that they return home and consult a spiritualist, since they was nothing they could say exactly was the problem.Odette walked into the room, as she stood at the door and looked at her his laying helpless on the bed she began to sobb again, she had suddenly become a shadow of herself. She walked towards the bed and sat on it, Roland could no longer talk nor walk he was completely handicapped.Odette sat on the bed, as tears continued to roll down her chins. "I'm so sorry you have to go through this Roland, but I'm more sorry at this point. because I can not think of what to do at this point to get us out of this"Odette said and Roland's eyes were wi

Sofia could not believe the image she saw laying on the bed, she took a step towards the bed, as she got to where Roland was. She lost her cool and bursted into crying, just then she understood why Odette had suddenly grown into such a scary creature.Sofia could not stand looking at Roland. She moved away, going back to Odette who was still standing at the door entrance sobbing. "I think I know someone who can help Roland" she said, her voice filled with conviction. "A spiritualist who has healed many people with same illnesses like Roland's"Sofia then again took another step forward to Odette, holding her on the shoulder. "This is really not the time to sit back and cry Odette, this time to seek solution to your husband's healt"The sound of that got Odette having a mix feeling, excited and angry at the same time, as she quickly wiped the tears off her face. Odette was excited because she had finally seen the miracle she had been praying for a long period of time and then sad becau

In as much as Roxanne thought her mother Odette was just messing up with her head, Odette still didn't give up. Odette made Roxanne know how important it is that she sees her father before he dies. "I know this might sound surreal Roxanne. But you just have to believe it" Odette said and paused, trying to know if Roxanne would say something. But she didn't so she continued."Your father's condition is getting worse, Roxanne. He doesn't have much time left." Odette's eyes welled up with tears, and her voice cracked with emotion then ended the call afterwards.Roxanne who had stayed quiet and reminiscing on what her mother had said, she had thought it was one of her mother's stunts, but hearing the word sound over and over in her head gave her every reason to think it twice."Could it be true that father is really sick?" She asked herself as sat and thought about it for a while, a part of her was still doubting while the other seemed to be fully convinced with everything her mother had s

Roxanne's eyes widened in shock as she took in the picture of the human laying before her, her father. Once a strong and vibrant man, now laying like some log of woods on the bed?Roxanne could not bring herself believe what her eyes just saw. she found herself next on the floor, the tears was faster that she was unable to hold them back.While Roxanne sat on the floor.

"Mom, what happened to him?" Roxanne asked, her voice shaking with emotion.The moment Odette was thinking she would never go back to, crying without tears. she sudde
