Glory to God, Mary got better. She got back to herself and I was really excited. We had talked about getting married and had told family members about it but we had to take things slowly when she fell ill. Now that she was better, I decided that it was time to go ahead with our marriage plans.
Plans kicked off in full gear a few months later and it was exciting to plan our wedding together. We were full of joy, so full of joy that everyone around us could tell that we were meant to be a couple. We picked a date and looked forward to this date. A day before this date that we picked, Mary fell seriously ill again. She was in so much pain that she could barely speak. She had to be hospitalised and I took days off work to be with her.
I stayed with her for a few weeks and on the day that we hoped she was going to be discharged, it appeared things got worse and the only words she could mutter was "I am sorry! I am sorry!..." and she closed her eyes and slept off.
"What was Mary sorry about? Why was she apologising to me? Was there something she knew that I didn't know of? Had she decided to be with someone else after all we had been through and even plans to get married?" These were some of the thoughts running through my head. I wanted to wake her up but then I remembered the Doctor had told me that she needed a lot of rest. As a result of the pain she was going through, Mary had not been sleeping well and so I allowed her sleep anytime it came freely and without pills.
This time was different, I wanted to wake her up to enable her explain why she was apologizing to me. Mary was perfect in my eyes and even if she had done anything wrong, I was going to forgive her. I really desired to spend my whole life with her. I stayed in the room with her head on my hand and I also slept off. "We need to examine her..." said the Doctor and that was when I realized that I had slept off.
I left the ward and allowed the medical professions perform their duty. I waited for some hours to be informed to go back inside. When it was taking too long, I decided to go inquire on what was going on.
To be continued...
Thanks a lot for stopping by. Hope to see you soon. God bless you.
