"I am so sorry Ms Chester without money we will not be able to do the operation but we do promise that once you pay then we will proceed with the operation."

When the doctor spoke those words to me I felt pain in my heart in a way I have never felt before.

I did not know what is it that I could do that could make this situation better. This woman has been a pillar of my strength, she has been through it all with me.

In times when I thought this is where my life ends, she was the one to pull me through. There was nothing I hated now more than the fact that I cannot help her out when she needs me the most.

I racked my brains out trying to think of ways to raise enough money so that she can do an operation.

Today is the day when I can even think of selling myself just so I can pay the hospital bills for them to continue giving my Angel treatment.

She has been taking care of me ever since I was two months. The children I lived with in the orphanage have given her few names but I have never called her with any of them. I have always called her my Angel.

She is my Angel because without her I wouldn't be where I am right now. I have to think of ways to get money so they can operate on her.

The only person I can think of right now is my fiancee Abraham. I wonder if he will be able to lend me enough money to cater for all the treatment she needs right now.

The only way I can find that out is if I go to him and ask him for this favour. I thank God that it is a Sunday and I will be able to get hold of him.

I haven't seen him in a while, he is always busy. It's either he has meetings or he is traveling out of the country.

I haven't been in his house for a while now and I have never been to his house without him knowing but today I can't call him. I need to go see him, I need a shoulder to cry on too.

I hail for a taxi and give him the address to Abraham's apartment. The driver nods his head and drives towards that direction.

I close my eyes and I am a bit nervous, I keep on thinking about what if Abraham cannot lend me this money, what will I do?

I think the driver can see how stressed I am. I am so stressed in such a way that I cannot even see that the car has stopped.

The driver kept on calling me but I am so lost in my own troubles. He does not give up, he ends up stretching his hand and touching me. That is when I wake up from my dreams.

"Miss are you ok? Do you need me to help you with anything?" The driver asks me.

"No thank you, I am fine. How much will it be?"

"Miss I do not know what is stressing you so much on a Sunday morning but you need to be careful these days, there is human trafficking. You need to be alert when on a taxi. I can see that something is troubling you, my advice to you as your elder is that whatever is stressing you, do remember to speak to someone. Bottling things inside of you can cause too much problems for you that could lead to death."

"Thank you sir for the piece of advice and I do not mean to be rude but I am rushing to go inside the house, this is a matter of life and death. So how much should I pay you for driving me here?"

"Oh do not worry about paying me little girl, I was on my way back home so take this as a lift, you can go on. Here is my card if you ever need someone to talk to just know that I am willing to lend you an ear."

"Oh thank you so much sir, may the Heavens bless you abundantly."

"Thank you little girl, see you when I see you "

"Goodbye sir." I get off the car as I wave goodbye to him and get into the building and head to Abraham's apartment.

I look at the time and I am thinking if he is in the house he is probably sleeping so I will not knock on the door but I will use the spare key to get in.

I do have spare keys to his house because I do not want him to have anyone else to do for him laundry and cook except me. So even though he is hardly here but I do keep his house clean and when he says he will be around I go to his apartment to make him few dishes for him to eat. Home cooked meals are still the best than fast foods right?

I get to the door and I could hear few moans but I quickly dispelled the idea that these sounds were coming from the apartment.

To my surprise the moment I open the door I am met with two people have sex on the couch and they are completely naked.

This is not what I have expected and the worse part of it all was that my fiancé was literally having sex with my sister.

My sister asks him "I still do not understand why you are not breaking off the engagement when you know very well that your heart and body long for only me."

"Come on Jessica, you know very well that your sister is a gifted designer, the company wouldn't be where it is without her doing a few designs for me. You do know that we need her close by so that we can make money and be able to travel around the world together."

"Yes I understand that but I should be the one to have your ring and not that stupid girl."

"Babes behave yourself, in order for you to have everything you want, we do need her to keep designing for us. Don't worry about anything even if I marry her I will never touch her."

Those words and that scene made my heart to break down into tiny pieces. I did not believe what I was seeing with my eyes. I closed the door slowly and just stood at the door.

It was not that I did not know where else to go but I felt like my feet were stuck on the floor. I could not walk or move them.

I thought about them actually having sex on the couch that I bought with money I had saved for doing piece jobs.

I thought about him inserting it in her vagina without any protection. I thought about the words that he has just said.

Their conversations actually meant that their affair has been going on for a while now.

He always asks me to design few things for him so we could make enough money for us to have a grand wedding and also buy a mansion that will belong to me.

He has been playing me all along. I have been such a fool to actually believ that this guy would fall in love with a low life like me.

While I was still thinking about this, I saw the door open and there he was opening a door while still zipping his pants.

He was shocked to see me there and when he saw the tears on my face, he understood that I have probably seen and heard it all.

He held my hands when I least expected it and said "baby it is not what you think, I can explain."

I jerked my hands off him and gave him a big slap on his right cheek then said to him "there is nothing I want to hear from you, it is over between us. You can openly date her."

I ran immediately after saying this and when I came out of the building I could not believe it.

It was like the heavens were truly putting a cherry on top. It was not just raining but it was pouring and I ran straight down the road not knowing where I was going to.

I knew one thing that was that I wanted to get as far away from the building that had so many memories.

I stood on the rain, drenched but my troubles were bigger that the rain. The rain was the least of my worries right now.

While I was still immersed in my thoughts. An umbrella was placed on top of my head and I heard a voice say "Don't cry for others, you deserve the best."

He hands me the umbrella, I could not see the man clearly because of the rain but I could smell that fresh breathe of mint that came out of his mouth and that masculine perfume which smelled nice in such a way that I was intoxicated by it, I literally forgot about my problems for a few seconds.

He was gone before I could even utter words of thanks. I could only see his straight back facing my me, he walked away and I couldn't even see him clearly.

I walked to Anna's house and luckily enough if found her there. I went to the bathroom to have a hot shower then dressed warm and when I got to the kitchen. I found that she has already prepared coffee for me.

"Thank you" that is what I said after taking the cup of coffee. "Come on Amanda, we are best friends there is no need for you to say those words to me. So tell me what has happened to you that has made you soak yourself in the rain. You would never let even a drop of rain fall on you unless you something big has happened."

"Anna, I found Abraham having sex with Jessica on the couch I bought three months back."

"No no no you must be joking right?"

"Unfortunately I am not." Tears streamed down my cheeks as I said that. My phone rang before I could even have a chance to vent out my frustrations to my best friend.

"Hello"

"Amanda where are you? Come home immediately."

The phone was dropped before I could even ask my father what was wrong but I could tell by the tone of his voice that something was not right.

"Why are you frowning Amanda, what is wrong?"

"Anna I am afraid I will have to leave you now, they have asked me to come back home as soon as possible."

I did not give my friend a chance to persuade me not to go because right now they might be the only people that could help with the hospital fees.
