His magnificent episode 13 – 14

🌹💞HIS MAGNIFICENT 🦋🌈..

CHAPTER 13…❣️

The day was just filled with pains and tears and yet she couldn’t even accomplish what she wants. She couldn’t get the money she wanted rather she was humiliated and insult. They crushed her pride and stomped on her ego. They insulted her cause she was helpless.

“God for how long will this continue?” She cried out and suddenly, people started running towards when she stood. They pushed her and continued running. She felt a very sharp pain on her upper hand. She couldn’t stand or balance herself on her feet.

She was beginning to feel dizzy and she had to hold the wall so as to not fall.
She saw an empty bench near a close stall. It was already night and she couldn’t walk properly thereby Making it difficult to go home. She also didn’t have money for cab.

With much difficulty she walked to the bench and feeling so heavy, she slumped on the bench. With a consciousness, she carried her arm up and took a look at the place where the pain was coming from. She was bleeding a little and was taken aback when she saw the needle in her arm. Its the kind that comes from a syringe.
But she didn’t have enough strength to think of how the needle was in her arm.

Finally, she blacked out…
*****************

THE NEXT MORNING….
She stirred on the bench.

‘it should be morning by now’ she thought when she didn’t feel the sun rays on her face. She could hear murmurings around her. She opened her eyes slowly and waited for her sight to adjust.

Seeing clearly now, she saw faces blocking the rays of the sun from touching her face.

“Look she’s awake”

“Poor woman”

“She looks so wretched”

“God,she’s bleeding on her arm”.

“Huh?!” Confused, she quickly got up. One thing she hated most was pity. She hated people pitying her like she didn’t have hope.

Immediately getting up, people have way for her to pass and leave. Hurrying, she had to get to the station and plead for more time or anything that could help her daughter in this current time.

She ran and ran and ran till she got tired and stood to catch her breath. The station was just across the road. She just had to cross to get there.
So close yet so far from her. She was already tired.

“Ma’am” someone called and before she could look back, she felt a sharp pain in her arm again.
But when she looked back, they was no one behind her. She looked at her arm. An injection was in her arm .

‘huh’..

She pulled out the injection and gazed at it. She had been injected just like yesterday night. She didn’t know what the content was or who must have injected her but she had more things to worry about.

Throwing the injection away, she ran to the road wanting to cross and get to the other side but she forgot to watch out for car.

The screech of the tire brought her to reality as she saw herself in front of a car. Then she collapsed.
**********************

“Hurry up Thomas or I’ll miss the meeting” he shouted as he buckled his shirt.
He turned and stared at her angelic face. Planting a small k-s on her forehead not wanting to wake her, he left for work.

“Mariam take care of my angel” he said and went downstairs.

“Sir, won’t you have breakfast before going?” The maid Mabel asked but he was already in a hurry.

“No Mabel. I’ll be late” rushing, he went out and got into the car before anything else would delay him.

“What time does the conference start ?” He asked his assistant who was seated beside him in the car.

Lucas , his assistant replied, “9:30 sharp . But we have already wasted so much time . It’s 9:05 already. Let’s just hope we get there just in time” ..

“Pls give me a briefing on what today meeting holds?” He asked..

“Ugh…..I’ve said this a million times” Lucas facepalmed.

His boss only smiled and then Lucas began giving the details of the meeting and their investors.

Then, the screeching of the tires were heard and the car came to a stop forcefully.

“What the heck was that?”…

Chapter 14..🌹

“what the heck was that!!” Lucas exclaimed at the sudden stop of the car.

“Sir , a woman ran to the middle of the road. I had to hit brakes to avoid collision” the driver explained . His heart was beating fast because he thought he had already hit the poor woman.

“Some people simply just don’t like obeying traffic rules” Lucas exhaled frustrated already. They were running late and any small delay, the meeting will be cancelled and they’ll lose the contract.

They waited small, waiting for the woman to get up but she didn’t.

“Are you sure you didn’t hit the woman” their boss who has been quiet all these while finally spoke.

“Yes sir….am pretty sure I didn’t” ..

They all got down from the car. Cars were already behind them honking but their boss didn’t care.

The driver bent down along with Lucas and he checked her pulse.
“She’s still breathing. She just fainted. Thomas get me water” the driver went back into the car and brought a bottle of water and sprinkled it on her face. Cars were blaring their honks at them. They had already cause a traffic jam but nothing was more important to their boss than this woman’s life.

They made her to sit as the woman was slowly regaining consciousness and was pointing towards the direction of the police station. She was also saying something. In fact, she was blabbering as none of them could understand her words.

“I don’t think we should waste our time here with her. She isn’t making any sense” Lucas was already in his limit. Checking his wristwatch, the time was 9:20. They were going to be late if they didn’t leave now. Their client as a matter of fact, hated lateness.

Bending down, their boss leaned in closer to order to get her words.

“My…my….dau….ghter… police sta..sta…tion” she kept on pointing at the Police station.

“Your…your daughter?” Their boss asked to verify what he heard.

The woman grabbed his collar and nodded vigorously still pointing at the station.

“This woman is crazy . Let’s go before the police comes out” Lucas said still trying to convince his boss but he didn’t even hear him. His concentration was solely on this woman trying to understand her.

“My….daughter…. mi….mi…Mira….please” she was running out of air. Her breathing was heavy. Her eyelids were also heavy. She was fainting again and their boss knew that this time , if she fainted, it won’t be the kind that water can be able to revive.

“Mi..Mira…please help…her….ple….” She finally fainted.

“Get her into the car. ” Their boss commanded.

“What!!” Both Thomas and lucas exclaimed.

“You must be joking”..

Their boss glared at him .

“He’s serious” the driver whispered in Lucas ear and he could only sighed.

“But what about the meeting?”..

“Cancel it”.

‘whaaaaaaaaaat’ Lucas s¢ræmed in his mind. Left with no option he and Thomas carried the poor lady into the car.

Their boss looked at the police station one more time and then entered the car.
**********************
AT THE HOSPITAL
*****30 minutes later.******
“Quick get her to the emergency room” the doctor said to the nurses as they carried her on a stretcher. She was taken there cause while in the car, she began coughing blood.

Lucas was scared cause if she died while with them, they might be blamed for her death and that would affect their reputation.

He could have warned his boss about this but since when did he ever listen to him.

He sighed hoping everything would be okay.

He had already called their client to cancel the meeting and woah, he did not take it well. He would have to plead for a different date to have the meeting.

“Mr Lockhart, it may take awhile. We have to examine her and know what’s wrong first” the female doctor on duty said and enter the emergency room.

Lucas sighed again.

“Hope your happy now sir!” ….his boss just rolled his eyes.

“Lucas,stay here and wait for the doctor to tell what’s wrong with her. Call me as soon as she does” he gave out his orders .

“But..but…where are you going?” He asked confused and unhappy with the fact that he was the one chosen to be here.

“Am going to that police station. I need to get to the bottom of this”

“Why can’t I go with you?” Lucas still asked.

“Because I want you to be here”

“But I want to be where the action is going on not here. Anywhere but here” he pouted and pleaded like a baby.

“Your staying here and that’s final” ..

Thomas eyes were already dizzy from looking back and forth from his boss to his assistant as they bickered. It was kinda funny though. Anyone who saw them won’t even think that he’s their boss. They would just think they’re best friends. Well,they were.

“Come on Thomas, let’s go” ..

“Hump”….
********************

AT THE POLICE STATION…
He walked into the station alone wanting to find out what the woman had been trying to say about her daughter. He kept on reciting the girl’s name in his mind. Not wanting to forget it.

Mira…
Mira..
Mira..
Mira…

He asked for the officer in charge and was directed to his desk.

As soon as the officer saw him, he stood up and stood straight as if saluting him.

“Please have your seat” he gestured towards the chair and Mr Lockhart sat down.

“Mr Lockhart, what brings you here today?” The officer asked after pleasantries.

“Am here because…” He paused…
“I believe a girl is here in one of the cell” he continued..

“A girl?!” The officer said confused trying to recall.
“No offense, but what’s her name because I don’t remember……”

“Mira. Mira is her name” Mr Lockhart quickly cut him off.

“Mira…ohh…Mira levenson” ..

“Is that her name?”.

“Yes it is. I arrested her just yesterday”he said and Mr Lockhart brows raised in question.

“What for?”.

“She was accused of theft”…

“Huh….” Now it was Mr Lockhart turn to be confused.
“And your arrested her!!. How can you be so sure?” he added.

“Well, we found the stolen item in her house and a witness was brought here. He claims he saw her stealing it” …

“Hmmm” Mr Lockhart wondered in thought.
“Can I see the young lady” he asked.

“Oh …yes of course you can” .

The officer and him stood up and went towards the cell, where the girl was .

As he got closer, all he saw was a little girl, hugging her knees with her face in-between her knees.

“Miss, someone is here to see you” a female police announced but Mira didn’t even move an inch . It was as if she didn’t hear her.
The cell was opened but Mr Lockhart didn’t step in neither did Mira look up.

“Mira”…..
