Married to the President

Aunt Lulu was now fine. The only challenge is that she can only Walk with the help of crutches.

She was happy to see Theresa. She had always been in-door and has a doctor who comes around to check on her. She was improving fast.

At the time of Lanre's wedding, she had become conscious but couldn't get out of bed. She had blessed him and said she wish she could come along.

But no worries, she would be cheering him on from afar. Lanre felt happy and thanked her before going to be wedded.

Lanre's wedding was glamorous, better than Junxie Li and Theresa's. They went to have their honeymoon outside the city and from there, went to see Lanre's foster parents.

They returned few days ago and Theresa has come to see them. Lanre wasn't in when she arrived.

She was welcomed by Rosa and Aunt Lulu. The three women were happy and chatting together.

Theresa's baby bump was already portruding and she looked a little chubbier than before.

Aunt Lulu said she looked forward to nursing her baby as it's grand Aunt. She said she was expecting some good news from Rosa's belly soon.

The latter laughed and said she hope so too. Theresa asked if Aunt Lulu would start practicing taking steps without the support of the crutches and she said not yet.

The doctor had warned her to exercise a little more patient until he tells her to put the crutches away.

Theresa said ok and wished she gets back to who she used be. It was while the women were chatting that Lanre arrived.

He looked clumsy and sank into the sofa besides his aunt. He sighed and didn't remember to kiss his wife before sitting.

Aunt Lulu glanced at him sitting sideways with her and squinted. What is wrong with her godson?

"Lanre are you alright?" Aunt Lulu asked, seeing he closed his eyes and sighed audibly again.

"I lost a patient, and I am not happy about it" Lanre said, opening his eyes and crossing his hands around Aunt Lulu's shoulders.

"Is that why you are so worked up?" Aunt Lulu asked. Lanre loves his job and this was the second time she heard about him loosing a patient.

The first time, he couldn't eat nor sleep that night. He kept blaming himself for not being able to save that patient despite doing his best.

He was then a fresh graduate. But ever since he went into proper practice, this was the first time he said he lost a patient.

"I have to be aunt. Though it's a 50-50 chances of survival, but I tried to save her but right in the theatre, she stopped breathing..." Lanre explained.

"You are the best surgeon I have ever known Lanre and your passion for the job, your desire to save lives would make you outstanding among your peers.."Aunt Lulu said and Lanre smiled.

His moodiness suddenly disappeared and he felt happy again. He kissed her chin and thanked her.

He then looked at his wife and then at Theresa." How are you ladies?" He chimed, smiling but his eyes on his wife.

Theresa saw him smiling and winking at Rosa and she said " looks like the one you are seeing is only Rosa. Don't worry, Junxie Li is coming for me soon" she joked.

They all laughed. Lanre asked her how Junxie was doing and she said fine. Soon Aunt Lulu said, she was expecting goodnews from Rosa's belly. He should see that her expectations came true soon. Lanre laughed and said maybe he hasn't been working hard enough. He would work harder henceforth.

Amaya asked Julia to give her Rita's cell phone number. He gave her but told her to only call her once daily.

She should use only the mansion cell phone to call her. Amaya agreed and the next day, she called Rita.

Rita was more than happy to hear Amaya's voice. This was her chance of getting back with Julia.

She didn't know she would get such opportunity. Her mother and brother said nothing again to oppose her getting together with Julia.

Infact her brother apologise to her if he was the one that have drifted her and Julia so apart from each other.

He said if there was anyway, he could come in and bring them together, he would do so. He is also in love now and knows what it feels like to love someone wholeheartedly,

She said he shouldn't get involve. She would get Julia back and everything would be alright. He wished her well and her mother did Same.

A long time passed and Rita and Amaya became close. Many times, they would have a video call and they will both talk and laugh like two people of the same age group.

One day, Julia returned from the office and Amaya asked him why he didn't make Rita her mother?

Tim and Lee have their daddy and mommy. But she doesn't have a mummy and Aunt Rita is good and loves her.

Julia was lost. He wasn't expecting her to say such words. Did Rita put those words in her mouth? No, Rita can't do so.

Maybe she loves Amaya the way he also loves her. Maybe the loss of their unborn daughter was making them have similar desires.

"She loves someone else not me, Amaya"Julia replied. He told her he was going to get her a mummy soon.

There was a lady he meet few days ago. She had a lot of similarities with Rita. She would make him feel it's another Rita anyways.

They are just friends. There isn't anything special about their relationship. But he hope to ask her for a date soon.

Maybe something can work out between them. Amaya just nodded but felt unhappy. She wants Rita and not someone else that her daddy would bring to her.

Julia saw her unhappy. How does he explains to her that he was married to Rita before and she lives in the Same mansion she now lives but they drifted apart. He promised her he would get her a mummy soon. And her mummy was going to love her exactly as Aunt Rita does.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
