CRAZY SIDE CHICK

#Chapter_24

A doctor paced through the hallway into Mr Binwell Tembo's sickroom with a notepad in his hand.

"Okay Mr Binwell Tembo," he started."You have been discharged.But you must ensure that treatment continues from home with your personal doctor."

"Sure." Replied Mr Binwell Tembo.

"And..." The doctor paused as if to recall something."Don't over think.You don't want to be depressed again.You take care of yourself."

Mr Binwell Tembo nodded,"I'll surely take care of me for my lovely daughter here." He said soothing his hand through Marjory's wigs.Marjory sat on the bedside chair.

The doctor nodded back at Mr Binwell Tembo and excused himself when Mwewa made his way into the room with a newspaper in his hands.

"Good morning." Greeted Mwewa.

"Yes Mr Mulusa,good morning to you too." Mr Binwell Tembo greeted back.

Marjory handed over her chair to Mwewa and found another seat at the edge of her father's sickbed.

"How are you feeling today." Asked Mwewa.

"Much better." Answered Mr Binwell Tembo.He sat up in his adjustable sickbed that formed a higher bed head."How's work yesterday?"

"It was a hectic day with the auditor.So much is needed to work on."

"I hope you were able to see that the annual reports are not in anyway close to the progress of our business, were you not?"

"I was." Answered Mwewa.

"Yes.The more reason I called for this meeting." Mr Binwell Tembo cleared his throat."I have decided to sell SD Rides."

"Father!why?" Marjory interjected.

"You are soon graduating as a medical doctor.Before then,we would have built a hospital for you.I believe you can run the hospital perfectly with Mr Mulusa as CEOs."

Marjory looked satisfied with her father's idea now.A hospital would be great to run as her own boss.While,in as much as it was interesting to hear,Mwewa felt that the old man had acted out of frustration for the losses by incompetence and theft SD Rides had recently reported.And indeed,Mr Binwell Tembo had feared that SD Rides would fail terribly at the hand of any other person who was not his blood,when he was gone.But Mr Binwell Tembo said,"it has ever been my dream to build a hospital for my daughter since she went to university."

Mr Binwell Tembo continued," you both know I have not enough time under the heavens.So I want to leave with that dream fulfilled or getting fulfilled.And I expect both of you as my only children to make me proud by ensuring that the hospital emerges as the best hospital in this country.Can I count on both of you?"

Marjory was silent.Mwewa nodded his head and said,"you deserve more to your reputable name,father.We will bring that dream to life."

"I believe you." Said Mr Binwell Tembo."I know you can achieve anything if you get the right team,Mwewa.A well displined team.Without the likes of Daniel.You got to stay away from such people.Please stay away from Daniel when he comes out of cells.He is a thief."

"Not only is he a thief,father.I just discovered more of Daniel." Said Mwewa.He took a sigh before he continued."Daniel is going to prison for years."

"Years for assault?" Mr Binwell Tembo wondered.

"Not really." Said Mwewa." Actually Daniel has been the e.v.i.l one behind all the tragedies that have been happening to us the past days."

"From your girlfriend as the e.v.i.l one to Daniel now?" Asked Marjory and it sounded as a scoff.

Mwewa felt a sudden pinch of embarrassment at the mention of 'girfriend'.Marjory was still upset with Mwewa.

"Take a look at this." Mwewa passed the newspaper he had came in with to Marjory."I woke up to that screaming headline on today's newspaper.That's after what happened last evening."

Marjory was reading the newspaper, gasping."What?" She wrinkled up.She had just read the story of Daniel and the two hired as.sassins' confessions to the police.She had just read that Daniel was actually the mastermind behind the crimes including her husband's kidnapping and in which she was drugged and left to die in the bushes.She also read that Daniel had caused the mur.ders near the City Hospital.

"What happened last evening?" Mr Binwell Tembo asked Mwewa.

Mwewa told them about the scenes involving Mubita that led to Daniel's crime confessions last evening.It was really an astonishing moment.

Marjory however had thought of Daniel as some guy who could not be trusted.She had seen him act like a perfect friend to Mwewa,but still had the guts to make advances on her__his best friend's wife.It was though hard time believing Daniel could have done the unthinkable_the mur.ders.

"I think Daniel is a psycho." Concluded Mr Binwell Tembo."How could a man in his right senses do such things?"

"I'm equally astonished that it had to be him."Said Mwewa."But he is soon going to prison along with other charges am going to file in against him.He will also pay for stealing from the company and I will make sure everything he owns gets back to SD Rides."

"I have had his bank accounts frozen already." Said Mr Binwell Tembo."When the investigations are done we shall be able to recover some of the monies he unlawfully got from the company."

"You can leave the rest to me,father.I will fix everything." Said Mwewa.

"Yes fix everything.Including your marriage." Just when Mwewa thought his father_in_law was not going to talk about that.

"That's my number one goal for now.Its my prayer too that my wife finds it in her loving heart to forgive me so that I can strive to retain her trust.But I don't even know where to start from because I'm so ashamed of myself right now." Said Mwewa.

Mr Binwell Tembo was silent.Right now he'd bet he would not involve himself in his children's marital matters unless he was invited or unless the matter was uncalled for to the extreme limits.

"Father I need to drive into town for some necessities before I take you home." Marjory said.It was as if she was not comfortable discussing reconcilation with her husband when the wound on his heart was still very fresh.She only wondered why her father was so quick about settling matters with her husband.Well,she still loved her husband and she knew she would not make herself want to loose him for any woman out there.

"Don't forget to get yourself a new phone because I need mine back." Majorly had been using one of the two smart phones her father owned since Daniel broke and flashed away her iPhone.

"Am actually enjoying this one." Said Marjory."And I do not have enough funds to get a new phone." She said while walking out of the room.

Mwewa was still seated."I will take my leave,sir.I got to hurry for work."

"You better hurry and get everything in place and order before we get the buyer."

"Sure,sir I will." He said as he heightened up.He had actually intended to go after Marjory for a talk.

"Hey." Mr Binwell Tembo stopped Mwewa." You guys can still work out things together.Just rush her.And when you fix this, don't you ever hurt her again because I will not be happy with you wherever I would be then.Promise me you will do nothing to hurt my daughter but make her happy for the rest of her life..."

Mwewa took a moment of silence.He turned up his head to Mr Binwell Tembo and said,"forgive me for all my mistakes father.But I promise you:I will do nothing to hurt my wife but make her the happiest woman on earth."

Mr Binwell Tembo nodded his head slowly.Then Mwewa left.

He found Marjory in the hospital parking lot trying to close the door to her car.He blocked her from closing the door.

"Am still not in the mood to talk about what you want talk about." Marjory said.

"I know we can't talk now.I just want to tell you that we have something more to seriously talk about.And I want you to come home so we can talk."

"I can't leave my father with the maids."

"Marjory,I need answers from you about something.You have to come home"

"Was that a command?Really?"

"Am talking as your husband!"

"No you should be talking like an adulterer!"

Mwewa calmed his voice.He felt like telling her off.Coming out like,"we flock together as adulterers cause you went the same bed with Daniel." But he was wise enough to control such fuel from pouring into the fire.He said he wanted her to come home so they could talk about everything,but inside of him knew that he wanted to confront her for what Daniel claimed to have done with her.It was eating him up.

"Look," said Mwewa,"I know how you feel about what has happened.But do you consider what I also feel about what you did out of frustration?"

"What I did?" Marjory scoffed." What did I do?"

"We can't talk shameful issues in public.Come home tonight." Said Mwewa.

"Are you trying to..." Marjory started but Mwewa had already walked to his car.She was left wondering why the offender was all of a sudden commanding her around.This made her anxious.She was left asking herself about what she could have possibly done in the past but she couldn't find anything that could hurt anybody.She waved it away and started the car into town.She told herself she would go to her matrimonial home to listen to 'whatever rubbish' this man was trying to get at.

"Did you get what I couldn't give you in bed from Daniel?" Mwewa was asking with a glass of whisky in his hands again.

Marjory stood staring at him with an angry face and her hands folded in front her chest.Mwewa was in a sofa as he spoke."You are drunk,right?'

"It's finally out from it's dark corners.You slept with that bas.tard!"

Marjory had ran out words.Her heart swell up and she felt like picking that same whisky bottle Mwewa was pouring from and break it in his head.But she got over her temper.She sighed high and said,"you know what,I don't care about what rubbish you heard about me.Am going back to my father's and later I will be back to school.I don't ever want you calling me or getting any close to wherever.Like I told you,I need space.Space!"

"Finally!You have accepted!You can go for all I care!I won't bother you because I too need space!"

Marjory stormed out and she didn't really understand why she broke down in tears when she walked to her car.She honked the car very loud for Kupa to manually open the gate.And when Kupa opened,she roughly drove out and never returned to her matrimonial home the next two weeks.

Back in school,Marjory had fallen sick and her room mate insisted that she got tested for malaria.But Majory was instead tested positive for pregnancy.

"Congratulations baby girl!" Selina, Marjory's room mate,waved her hands and danced.

But Marjory appeared unhappy as she sat at the edge of the her bunk bed.

"Baby, what's wrong?" Asked Selina.

"It's nothing.I am not just ready to be a mother!"

"Baby it is time.Nothing will change.You will still graduate as a doctor.Just pick up this phone and give the good news to your Mr handsome,Mr Mulusa.I know you are going to make his day!"
