C55 A Visit To The Hospital

Tasha's Mom pulled a stool and asked Tasha to sit down.

"Now tell me, what's going on between you two?"

Tasha knew her mom was not going to stop the topic yet she was not prepared to talk about it. In fact, there is nothing to talk about. It will sound crazy if she tells her mom how she feels towards Jenny.

"Mom, nothing is going on. Jenny and I need some break"

She said and her mom smiled. This young lady in her front thinks she is a kid who can't read the handwriting on the wall.

"I could ask Jenny and if she tells me there is something, you will have it hot with me so better spill now"

She persuaded further and Tasha shrugged off her shoulders.

"Mom, I'm sure if you ask Jenny, she will tell you there is nothing. So don't even bother or you can try"

Her mom scrutinized her for a while and said okay.

"Call Trucy for me"

Tasha nodded and left to get her brother.

Mrs Martins picked up her daughter's phone and clicked it open and then took Jenny's digital from the phone. She dropped the phone back where Tasha left it before her daughter could get back.

She would have to ask Jenny to know what's going on.

Jenny's point of view…

Susan and I were sitting at the back of Zain's car with Zain behind the wheel. I had thought of a reason for me to go to the hospital with them and I found an answer, more like Susan doesn't want me home alone with Owen or Zain doesn't want me home alone with Owen, it could be any of the reasons.

Susan has her reason, and so does Zain. They both did me a favor. The Owen guy is becoming something else.

Zain moved the car and we left for the hospital with Susan and me on our phones. We were sitting like two strangers in a commercial vehicle, each minding their own business.

We got to the hospital in no less than thirty minutes.

Susan went down with Zain and I stayed back. I saw no reason I should go with them. I am not pregnant.

Susan wanted to argue about it but Zain told her that I don't need to go with them. I have to thank him in my mind for getting my back.

I watched them through the glass as both walked into the hospital. I hate hospitals, I can't breathe inside them. The smell of drugs does wonders to my stomach.

The hospital is kind of a big one. The car garage is so large that you would think thousands of people visit the hospital every day or maybe it is true.

Hospital is the most visited place.

The building was beautified with all types of flowers, the ones I know their names and the ones I don't know their names, and the wall was painted white, that's a typical hospital color.

I tried checking the name from the hospital from the angle I am at but could not see it. I failed to look up when Zain was driving through the gate.

Knowing the name would not add anything to me so I stopped trying to see the name.

My phone rang inside my bag. I fumbled through my handbag and found it at last.

I checked the caller ID and found it to be an unsaved number. I picked and kept mute.

"Hello"

I heard.

The voice sounded familiar.

"Hello dear, are you there?"

"I am, good day"

I greeted her.

"Thank you, it's Tasha's Mom"

She said and I opened my mouth in Surprise. I never expected a call from her, it's unusual that she is calling. I just hope nothing is wrong with Tasha.

First, it was Trucy, and now, the mom? I hope I am safe.

"Wow, sorry I didn't have your digits. How are you doing?"

"I am okay my dear"

She responded and we both went silent.

"I know you'll be wondering why I called you, there is no problem. I just want to know if you and Tasha are on good terms?"

I was surprised to hear her ask me that question. Did something happen to warrant her calling me and asking? I thought of a perfect reply to give her in order not to give anything out.

"Of Course, we are on good terms. Did she say we are fighting?"

"No, not at all. She has been acting weird so I thought maybe you both fought. I will leave you now, enjoy the rest of your day"

"And you too ma'am?"

I wished her back and she hung the call.

I wondered what was going on with Tasha. I could have known if she picked up my call earlier. I decided to call her again to see if she would pick up.

The first rang gone and the second one, she picked it up.

"Hi Jenny"

She said dryly.

"Hi Tasha, are you okay?"

I asked and waited for her response.

"Sure, I am okay. What made you think I am not okay?"

She asked this time emotionlessly. I was taken aback by the tone of her voice. This is unlike the Tasha I know or she is this cold because I refused her offer.

"Tasha, are we fighting?"

I need her to explain to me why she has to be so cold.

"Jenny, we're not fighting. I don't know what will make you think we are not on good terms. It's not every time one is in the mood to talk. I obviously have some things I was doing before you called so if you will excuse me, I would like to go now"

She said and her end went dead.

To tell you that I am not shocked, I am lying to you then. I was beyond shocked. Why would she suddenly act up?

I called her earlier and she didn't pick, and the mum called to ask if we are having issues. When I called her again, she managed to pick it up, and then she acted cold towards me.

Okay, if it has to do with her proposal and she's acting up to make me give in to her then there is a limit to what I can do. One thing I will ever do is beg people to stay in my life. If she wants to throw our friendship into the mud because she is obsessed with me, so be.
