THE NANNY AFFAIR

Liam couldn’t get himself together, he quietly walked away, to his room.

“Liam?”

Elena tries to go after him, but halted when Mike held her, “where do you think! You’re going?”.  He inquires knowing fully well the answer to his question.

She runs a serious look at him, veering a two-step backward, “get the hell out of my way Mike, or else you won’t like me at all?”.

The threatening voice she used, lowered his eyes down, he moves out of her away like a good little boy, as she veered over to Liam’s room.

“May I come in, Liam?”.

It gained his attention, as he gave in to her words, Elena moved closer to him wearing a weak smile.

She says: “I know you might be shocked but let me explain myself, please”.

Her magic words urged Liam to give ears to her explanation, he seats on the bed idling for her explanation.

Elena pins a weak smile on, after seeing his cold reaction, “your anger is justified Liam but let me explain to you” for the second time she copied back her words to him, rather her words cooked up negativity in his head,  he gets up from the bed and dragged her out to the living room.

We quivered in fear the second we took heed of her words, she begged him to listen as they veered closer to the front door.

“Get out” he nudged her out, trying to close the door but she stopped him blocking it with her hands, “listen please”  she pleaded once more, yet he wasn’t in any way ready to hear a word, I watched as he gently pulled her hands away swiftly closing the door.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

He swiftly closes the door to her face, veering his feet away, Elena kept calling out to him, as he moved further away, Mike swooped in to convince his brother, thus stopped talking when he noticed the gaze Liam had on.

Apparently, after a while, we heard a vase shattered to the floor, immediately I rushed out, pushed the door open to see Elena laying unconscious on the ground.

“Liam?”.

The tensed demeanor I portrayed triggered his attention as he rushed out behind and saw her unconscious as well. 

He carried her up from the floor, gently laying her down on the couch, afterwards, the doctor came home the moment he was notified.

“We’re going on doctor?”.

We all looked on, idling to hear his response,  a while later, he turns over, gloomy was the look he had on which got us tensed.

“So?”. Mike cut in and asked as he finally weaves out his mouth open. “Erm! I am sorry but she has leukemia! That is a cancer of the blood”.

We were all stunned by the news, Liam held a hand on his chest, as he walks out of the house, hence the juncture I turned to go after him, I caught Andres behind, mostly staring at his mom.

He veered away in shock and as well ran back into his room, I had two options, it was either I go after Liam or his son, but in all, they both needed a shoulder to cry on.

“Andre’s! Champ are you okay”.

I knew it was a stupid question to ask but I have no other way to stair up a conversation between us.

“No, I am not okay? Miss Sara I thought my mom died, but today she’s here, and know what’s gonna happen?”.

I felt the pain in his tone to me, for such a tender age, he encountered such a thing, which might harm his health, if not taken seriously.
