Chase Delgado

Staring blankly at the doctor, I was confused about what to say or how to react
I don’t believe it Sam, there must be a kind of mix up somewhere. My dad panicked
There is none, I had to screen the blood twice Just to be sure. the doctor explained
You can opt for a DNA test if you wish. he added
My dad scoffed
I don’t need any test, I just need to confront that b***h I call a wife
he stood up abruptly and stormed out of the office in a huff
Neil! Neil! the doctor tried to call him back but I guess his mind was already made up
I sighed
Are you alright Chase? the doctor faced me
Can I see my brother? I ignored his question
No, he is in the emergency room. he replied
Oh! I need to get going . I informed while standing up
I was about to go when the doctor called me
I looked at him
Please Calm your dad so he does not do anything stupid. he pleaded
I nodded before walking out of the room

Nick’s manager ran to meet me immediately I walked out of the doctor’s office
What is wrong Chase? Why did your dad come out of office looking so angry? he asked rushingly
I ignored his questions
What did you do to Nick?
What are you talking about? he retorted
You knew very well that Nick can’t sing so why did encourage him to? I fired at him
I just wanted him to be happy. he defended
happy? Is this what you call happiness? Nick life is in a mess and it is all because of you . I yelled
What do you mean? he asked confusedly
I smirked
Good night ! I bade and took my leave

I drove home as fast as I could. I was worried my dad might do something crazy
But how did it get to this? Does it mean Nick is a bast....... Damn!
If Nick is not a Delgado, then who is he?

I soon got to the front of the mansion. I honked the car horn and the security guard opened the gate
I drove into the compound and parked in the garage
I alighted from the car and ran into the house .
And as expected, I met my Dad and Nick’s mum having a heated quarrel
Dad please stop! I yelled
he looked at me and scoffed
I need to get the truth from this b***h
I shifted my gaze to “the b***h”, she was whimpering in tears
Please Chase tell your father I know nothing about it. She pleaded
Did you hear that Chase? She is nothing but a lying b***h. my dad yelled
Dad please just let her go, Nick needs her. I pleaded
But she is yet to confess. My dad retorted
She can do that later , what is most important is saving Nick’s life
he sighed
Fine! You can go.......and also get ready to sign the divorce papers. he informed and stormed up the stairs
What did he just say? Nick mum asked in shock
I shook my head in pity before heading upstairs to my room...

Roxy Delgado ( Nick’s mother)

Tears streak down my eyes as I drove over to the hospital
I never expected all this to happen so fast
How will I tell Neil that I was already pregnant before I got married to him?
how will I tell him that I married him because of his money?
Oh Roxy! You are doomed
*
I parked my car and scurried into the hospital
Where is my son? I yelled to no one in particular
Calm down Madam, can you first tell me who you are? a lady on white uniform asked while walking towards me
I am Mrs Delgado. I informed and her eyes widened in surprise
Wow! You must be Nick’s mother?
Where is he? I barked
he is at the emergency room but you can’t go in . she replied
Why? I yelled
The doctor is in the best position to explain to you. she informed
Fine! I sighed and headed to the doctor’s office
*
I pushed the door to the office opened and walked in
What is wrong with my son? I half yelled
he looked up at me
Calm down Roxy! he said with a smirk
how can I be calm when I don’t know if my son is dying or not ? I retorted
He will be fine, Just have your seat . he assured
I sighed as I sat down
Who is Nick’s father? he suddenly asked
What do you mean by that? I pretended
Quit pretending Roxy, have you forgotten we used to close friends back then at college?
I scoffed
If you were truly my friend, then why did you tell Neil the truth?
he laughed
The truth? I can see you have finally confessed
No I erm mean that .... i stuttered
Shut up! he barked . Nick’s is in a critical condition and the least you can do is to say the truth
What exactly is wrong with my son? I whimpered
he needs blood
Then use mine , we have the same blood type......

I laid on the bed trying to force my self to sleep but still couldn’t
My heart was heavy as I thought about the conversation I had with my dad earlier on
What would happen to us if my dad gets fired from work? how are we going to feed? how are we going to survive?
I sighed
What should I do? Should I tell Chase about it? I think I really need to do that
I dialled Chase number and he picked it on the second ring
hi baby! he greeted
how are you? What of Nick? Is he better? I asked rushingly
he will be fine. he assured
I sighed in relief
how are you? Are you alright? he asked rushingly
I amm not rrreally fine. I stuttered
What is wrong?
Kira threatened to fire my dad. I replied
Kira! Why would she do that?... I mean what business does she have with your father? he asked confusedly
My dad is her family driver. I replied with a low voice
Oh! And what was your dad offence?
he did not do...... I was about to say when he cut me off
What qualifications does your father have?
Just a high school certificate, he dropped out from college. I explained
he sighed
I will talk to my dad about it and will get back to you tomorrow. he informed
Are you for real? I beamed in excitement
Sure
Thanks baby. I appreciated
It is nothing
I love so much Chase
I love you too baby.he said and ended the call........
I wriggled on the bed in excitement, Dad will be so happy to hear this .........
