Startled , I froze in terror at the frightful sight
My whole body shuddered as I watched Chase hold Nick unconscious body
What the hell just happened? Will Nick be alright?
Someone should please call the ambulance. I heard Chase yelled
oh my gawd! What should we do? Loretta asked worriedly
I brought out my phone , I dialled the emergency number but it was not connecting
Is he going to die? Loretta asked while panicking
I don’t know. I shrug
*
The hall became noisier when the ambulance arrived
Two Emergency medics rushed in rolling a stretcher
I sighed in relief
Will he be fine now? Loretta asked
I think so…….
*
The medics placed Nick gently on the stretcher and rolled him out
Make way! Make way! they kept on screaming until they got to the ambulance ..
I sighed
But what really happened to Nick’s voice? I turned to face Loretta but she was no where to be found
Where could she be?
I looked around the hall and was surprised when I saw her on the stage beside Chase ….
When did she get there? I wondered while walking towards them
Chase! I called while climbing up the stage
he looked at me and smiled lightly
Are you alright? I asked
Yes.he sniffed
Oh chase! I pulled him into a hug
It is going to be alright. I assured him and he held me tightly…..

I held Candy tightly while caressing her hair
Are you really alright? She repeated while disengaging from the hug
I sighed
No, I am really worried about Nick
I understand baby, he will be fine. but what really happened to his voice? She probed
I stared at her not knowing what to say
Chase! She called softly
Can we please not talk about it? I pleaded
She gave me a puzzled look before she nodded
I need to go to the hospital. I informed
Can I come with you?
No baby, you and your friend need to go home. I replied glancing at her friend
Oh! She exclaimed
Do you have enough money to take you home?
I erm erm have i mean I don’t. she stuttered
I smiled
I dip my hand into my pocket and brought out my wallet
here, you can have everything.
But Chase this is much? she bent her head shyly
I smirk
You can give some to your friend
She looked at me and smiled
Thanks
It is nothing. I grinned
I pecked her before walking out of the hall….

I dialled my dad’s number on my way to he hospital and he picked it up immediately
Dad! Nick slumped at the concert. I informed immediately
I know son , I am already at the hospital . he replied
how did you know? I asked in surprise
The news, it is all over in the new
Damn. I cursed
Where are you? he asked
I am on the way to the hospital
Good! I will be waiting for you. he sighed and ended the call
Oh Nick! Why did you have to push yourself too hard?

I widened my eyes in surprise as I counted the money Chase gave me
Did he give me this much money just to go home?
And how does it feel like to date a rich guy? Loretta suddenly asked
I looked at her in surprise
What do you mean?
Nothing, I am just asking .She retorted
What has come over you Loretta? I asked
And what do you mean by that? She retorted
You are behaving kind of weird, Did I offend you in anyway? I asked staring at her
She huffed
Is it a crime to ask a question?
No it isn’t , but I don’t like the question you asked
She sighed
I am sorry. She apologised
It is alright
here. I said while giving her some of the money
Thanks so much Candy . She beamed
I smiled……..

We headed to the bus station together and I helped her flagged down a taxi
See you tomorrow. She bade as she hopped the taxi
I waved and the driver zoomed off
*
I waited for about twenty minutes before another taxi came into view
I flagged it down and got in
behind Diamond block! I called and the driver nodded before driving off
I sighed as my mind drifted off to the happenings of today
What went wrong? Why happened to Nick’s Voice? Why was his voice all croaky? The Nick I know had a remarkable voice just like my …… I stopped when I recalled what Chase said about hearing Nick sing for the first time
What does he mean by that?
*
The driver stopped in front of my house, I paid him off after I alighted
I walked Into the house and met my parent in the sitting room
hi mom! hi dad! . I greeted
how are you? My dad asked
Fine. I smiled
The concert was a mess. I added
I know , it was shown in the news. he sighed
Are you alright dad? I asked while studying him, he looked tensed
Sit down Candy!he instructed
Is everything alright? I stared at my mom
She met my gaze and looked away
Just sit! my dad repeated
Fine! I sighed while sitting
Do you want me to lose my Job? he suddenly asked
What do you mean by that? I was confused
Just Answer me Candy? he half yelled
I shook my head negatively
Good! then can you please stay away from Kira’s man
Kira’s man? Who is Kira’s man? I asked in confusion
I am talking about Chase
I scoffed
Are you for real? Did Kira threaten you? Did she? I yelled
She did …..he tried to say something but I cut him off
Chase is mine, he belongs to me , he asked me to be his girlfriend so how the hell does he belong to Kira? I yelled
Calm down Candy! my dad held my hands
How can I dad? how can I Calm down? I cried
It is alright. my dad assured while pulling me into a hug
I never knew you love him this much..

I soon got to the hospital and I parked in front.
I alighted from the car and rushed Into the building
I sighted my dad and Nick’s manager seated in the waiting room .
I walked towards them
What is going on Dad? how is Nick? I asked rushingly
he sighed
he has an internal injury and needs to undergo a surgery. he explained
So what are the doctors waiting for? Let them go on with it. I retorted
he needs blood. my dad informed
I smirked
So? Let them get it from the blood bank
The blood bank is short of blood. he complained
Damn! I cursed
What if I donate mine? I volunteered
he smiled
My blood has been taking for screening, the doctor will soon call me in
I nodded
What of his mother? I asked while looking around
She is on her….he stopped when a nurse greeted
hi! how can I help you? my dad asked
The doctor needs you in his office. She informed and flashed me a smile before leaving
My dad stood up
Come with me Chase! he instructed
Alright dad! I agreed
I glared at Nick’s manager before walking in with dad.
I was so sure he was the one who pushed Nick into this …….

My dad pushed the door opened and we walked in
hi Chase! the doctor greeted and I nodded
Can I start with the donation Sam? my dad asked
The doctor smiled
Have you seat Neil and you too Chase. the doctor offered
So can I start? My dad repeated as we sat down
The doctor sighed
I don’t know how to say this but your blood was not a match
how is that possible?
I was surprised myself but you see Nick has a type o blood while you have a type AB blood. he explained
So what are you trying to say? my dad asked with a wavering voice
I am afraid to say this but Nick is not your biological son. the doctor blurted out
What the hell do you mean? My dad yelled ….
