Let’s Rewrite Our Love Story, Ms Summer Frost

CHAPTER 14

“Wh… what’s going on?” Xander mumbled as he paced restlessly in his study. Many thoughts ran through his mind, yet he failed to place what was happening. Could it be that those twins were his kids? Could it be that he was their father? He dismissed the thoughts immediately because the last time he checked, he was sterile and couldn’t have a child.

“It must be a coincidence… No way they are my kids,” Even though it didn’t make any sense, he tried to hold on to that conclusion, but deep inside him, he knew that it was crazy. He knew that something was happening. Something he needed to find out as soon as he could.

“I think I’m losing my mind.” He slumped on the sofa and sank his fingers into his hair as he shut his eyes.

“What’s going on?” He slowly ruffled his hair like he was on the verge of losing his mind completely.

“Could it be that it was all a misunderstanding?” He mumbled but quickly shook off the thought. No way the doctor could make a mistake like that.

The door opened and Nick walked inside.

“Sir, I got a call from the hospital. I think….

“I will sort that out later. I need you to do something for me, Nick,” He stood up and tucked his hands inside his pockets.

“Alright, Sir. What can I do for you?” Nick’s question hit him hard, but his tongue felt tied when he opened his mouth to talk, He didn’t know what to say.

“Nick… Do you think a doctor can make a mistake?” Nick was dumbfounded by his boss’s question, so he stared back at him for a few seconds

“Yes, Sir, Everyone is bound to make a mistake or two in their profession, and I think health experts ar

“Uhm… Sir, is everything alright? Are you ok?” Nick’s worried voice caught his attention, and he sighed briefly.

“Prepare the car. We are going to the hospital,” He walked over to the chair behind the desk and picked up his coat from it,

“Where are we going, Sir?”

“Tot

the hospital. I need to see the doctor for something important,” He led the way outside while Nick followed him from behind.

Nick led the way to the car once they were outside the building and within the compound.

“I’ll drive myself, Hand me the car keys,” Xander demanded. He felt like Nick might not drive as fast as he wanted. He was desperate to find out the truth, and he really needed to hurry to the hospital.

Xander hopped inside the car and drove off immediately.

“Is the doctor inside?” He asked the receptionist once he was inside.

“He is…” Xander couldn’t wait for the young lady to finish what she was saying before he hurried off and made his way to the doctor’s office.

He knocked on the door when he arrived at the front of the doctor’s office.

“Who is…” He pushed the door open and barged inside while the masculine voice from inside was still speaking.

“Xander?” The young doctor who was in his thirties, pulled a surprised look as he raised his gaze from the desktop and looked at him.

1. ry. We need to talk. It’s very urgent,” He took a seat before he was offered one.

“Henry…

“You need to relax, man. I’m in the middle of a Zoom meeting Give me a few minutes,” Henry covered the camera of his desktop and whispered before he resumed the meeting

The meeting lasted for another five minutes, but those minutes felt like forever to Xander. He was so desperate about this that he thought the meeting was never going to end.

“I’m done now. What’s happening, man? Is it about your Mom?” Henry asked him, and he sighed, He had been friends with Henry almost all his life. They had been best buddies right from middle school.

“Not that. Uhm…” He paused and sighed, thinking of a way to ask him.

“I want to take a fertility test, Henry. Can we do it now?” Henry’s face went blank for a moment

“Fertility test? What do you need that for?” Henry raised his eyebrows confusingly

“Don’t ask me questions, man. Let’s get to it. It’s really urgent,” Xander didn’t know how he was going to start explaining to his friend how he took a test years ago and was said to be sterile. At least not now.

“Are you ok, Xander? Is there something you want to talk about?” Henry asked worriedly as he leaned forward. Nine years ago, Henry had traveled out of the country to pursue his career as a medical doctor and only came back three years ago, so he hadn’t been conscious of the things happening in Xander’s life ever since, not even Xander being married for two years before divorce.

“There is no time for that, Henry. Let’s get to it,” He insisted, and Henry breathed out as he reclined on the chair,

“Alright… I would be taking your blood and sperm for a series of tests, so the whole thing is going to take four or five business days before you can get the result, Henry uttered hesitantly.

“Four or five days? That’s too much, man. I need this urgently. Can I get it between today and tomorrow, please? You need to speed up the test, please. I really need it. It’s very urgent,” He pleaded with Henry desperately.

“What’s up with you? You are acting odd, and it’s getting me worried,” Henry muttered as he knitted his eyebrows. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Will you give me the result within today and tomorrow?” He asked again, and Henry sighed.

ight and get it done for you within two days. That’s the most can do,”

“You can only get it in two days, I will work overnight

“Thank you so much. I will remember this favor for the rest of my life,” Xander’s hope felt as though it was on steroids at that moment, but being glad was out of it for him as he didn’t have any reason to be
