Must Read: A SECOND CHANCE - Season 1 - Episode 73

‘dad, how is mum?’ Alice asked as she immediately rushed to her mother’s bedside.

Fred was very shocked. What would have happened if Alice had seen him talking to nothing.

Of course nothing because Alice would not have been able to see Queen Lateefa. And also he was shocked because assuming Queen Lateefa had not come into the room at that time, then probably he would have still been holding the razor and what excuse could he have said that he was holding a razor close to his wife’s unconcious body and crying profusely and he was also surprised because he thought Alice had gone home.
‘Alice, i thought you went home?’ Fred asked surprised.
‘i did go home. But i had this feeling that something was wrong somewhere so i had to rush back. It was like mum was about to die’ Alice said.

Fred took a deep breath.
‘your mother is going to be fine, i promise’ Fred said.
‘i hope so because i love mum so much’ Alice said as a tear strolled majestically down her cheeks.

Just then, Kofo coughed and both father and daughter turned to her.
‘kofo! Kofo, you are awake!’ Fred said in excitement.
‘oh, thank you Jesus. Mum, you are awake’ Alice said.
‘hurry Alice, call the doctor’ Fred said and Alice rushed out to meet those aproko nurse on night duty still jisting and laughing like there was no tomorrow.
‘nurse, my mum….she’s awake’ she said panting heavily.
‘eh eh? So? Because sey she wake make we die? Na today people dey wake for hospital?’ the same nurse that attended to her the first time said.
‘look, i dont have time for any of these, my mother is awake and i expect you to come and attend to her not sit here yarning balls instead!’ Alice said already boiling in anger.

All the nurses laughed.
‘see yawa oo. Na we you dey speak english for, you go suffer today because you go go call your ancestors wey don dir tey tey make dem come treat your mama’ another nurse said.

One pretty nurse who was just sitting on her own in one corner watching the other nurses misbehave without laughing and talking stood up and approached Alice, tapping her gently on the shoulder.
‘i’m so sorry for their immaturity. Lets go to your mother’s ward so i can notify the doctor on duty to come check on her’ the nurse said.

Alice calmed down because of the nurse who acted maturedly.
‘na your mama na be immaturity, idiot!’ the other nurse fired at the nurse.

She ignored them and beckoned on Alice to come with her as she ascended the stairs.

Alice eyed them and followed her.
‘so ridiculous! Are those things on the counter really qualified nurses or just cleaners wearing nurses’ outfit?’ Alice asked in disgust.

The nurse chuckled.
‘pay less attention to them and always ignore them whenever they talk like that because one thing may lead to another and there may be a serious outburst here in the hospital and its not too good’ the nurse said.
‘more reason why those animals should be sacked because no one would want to come to this hospital again after having an encounter with them just like i have decided that nothing will ever bring me here again, never!’ Alice said.

The nurse smiled.
‘i’m nurse Anabel by the way and you are?’ the nurse asked stretching her hands forward to Alice.
‘i’m Alice by name’ Alice asked taking the handshake then they both pushed the door open.
