I'm Dieing

Yh, funny. I assume you had a happy

childhood.

"Not exactly it was after Jake came into my

life. "Do you still love him?".. Mark asked

Aurora hesitated a bit before patting her

lips."Yes I do,very much.

"That's good to know...he forced out a smile.

"Urhmm should I get you breakfast or you

wish to take your shower first".

I will have breakfast first. "Ok then I will ask Tiwa to get it for you, she will also help you with your bath.

Mark stood up and was about leaving the

room when Aurora called for him.

"Mark" Yes...he turned swiftly. Thank you

once again.

"No need it's okay."

Hmm,Aurora smiled at him.

I will take my leave now....he hurriedly

walked out.

Mark sat in his swivel chair and focused his

eyes on one thing, Aurora's picture.

"Since when did I fall for you..this is all

bullshit, I have to burry all these feelings.

"Scorpion"...he called out.

"Yes Sir".

I want every piece of information you can

get about Charles. I want to know every

damn thing about him.

I want him punished in such a way which...

hrggh

He closed his eyes and sipped the air lightly

you can get moving now. Scorpion bowed and walked out.

He walked to the mini bar in his office and

poured himself whiskey

He didn't notice when he was done with

three bottles... Mark was totally wasted.

***

*Knock* "You may enter... Aurora spoke

Hi Aurora, I brought you breakfast. "Oo that

soo sweet of you. Come in please.

Tiwa walked towards the bed and gently

placed the tray on the bed. "Here you go.

Hmmm smells delicious... Aurora inhaled deeply. "Aurora sorry about what happened to you I can't imagine what you went through.

Don't worry Tiwa I'm fine now. All I have to

do is to watch out and probably take extra

guards with me. I will be retiring from work

for the meantime, anyways I trust my fellow

doctors.

I have to be careful not to stress myself out,

who knows I might be dieing anytime soon.

"Hey why are you saying that? "Please

promise me you won't tell Mark about it.

Aurora said with pleading eyes

But how can I? I mean.... "Please Tiwa promise me.

"Ok fine I promise you.

I have leukemia,I need a bone marrow

transplant.

What??? Tiwa's eyes widened in shock

But how?? l mean since when you are fine right? "No I'm not l can feel it within me, that I'm dying each second.

Why haven't you done the surgery yet?

You see, mine is genetic so I need my

Mom's bone marrow.

Then what are you waiting for? They aren't

my real parents.... I was adopted.

What!! So you mean to say you are an

orphan?

I'm not really sure and don't really know

about that.

Aurora what can I do to help you? "Nothing

can be done Tiwa, absolutely nothing.

No,no you can't die just like that, Tiwa wiped

the tears on her cheeks. "Hey why are you

crying? No need to cry...I will embrace

death wholeheartedly anyways my life is

pointless,there is no happiness,no care,

nothing feels like home...I mean I was really

happy back then even when I knew I was

going to die.
