The Dreaded Thirty - S01 E05

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 5

There’s time for everything under the sun. When things don’t go exactly the

way you want them to, don’t feel sad or discouraged because it could be

that it isn’t your time for manifesting yet. When we begin to see life this

way, we would attain a certain level of peace; knowing that what’s rightly

ours would never miss us but would locate us at the right time. I believe

Sandra wasn’t aware of this truth, hence the reason she tried to rush life,

but that doesn’t mean she was now ‘black listed’ from receiving God’s

blessings.

Just as they say, the best things of life happens unexpected. God loves to

show up when all hope is lost in a situation so that way, all glory would

go to his name. If things had gone the way Sandra predicted, she wouldn’t

see the need to acknowledge God’s mighty hands upon her life as the author

and finisher. She would have probably given all credit to her beauty and we

know God doesn’t love to be a ‘Tag Along’ in our story.

While Sandra thought of ending her own life due to her deteriorating mental

and emotional health, God was already a thousand steps ahead of her and was

about to set a feast table in the midst of the crisis. God’s ways are not

our ways and his thoughts are not our thoughts. Just as the heavens are

higher than the earth, so is God’s ways higher than our ways and his

thoughts than our thoughts. The mystery of God’s works makes him

interesting and amazing. That way, we can never get tired or familiar with

God.

Immediately after the accident, Sandra fell on the ground and was bleeding

profusely. The impact from the accident was too intense and had injured her

head greatly. Sandra was lying lifeless on the ground and it brought great

fear on the handsome gentleman that hit her. The cry for help lasted

shortly before the gentleman carried her into his car and drove off in high

speed to a nearby hospital.

Sandra was immediately rushed to the emergency ward for treatment, while

the gentleman gave reports on what happened. That moment was indeed a scary

one for the gentleman and he kept praying for a miracle in Sandra’s

healing. He made calls to some friends and they were there shortly to

support him.

After about five hours of waiting, a doctor came to the waiting room and

informed the gentleman and his friends that Sandra was now responding to

treatment. What a huge relief it brought to everyone because it meant that

Sandra would be ok. The hospital bill was paid and they were allowed to see

the patient later on.

It was already getting late at this point but the gentleman insisted on

waiting till he could see Sandra. When he entered Inside her room, the

state at which he found her wasn’t good at all, due to the bandages that

were on her head and body. Everyone felt bad for her due to her condition,

and prayed for a fast recovery.

After spending almost a whole day at the hospital, the gentleman had to

leave with his friends because it was getting very late. “I will be here

first thing tomorrow morning, please takecare of her very well. See you

tomorrow” he said and took his leave.

Shortly, Sandra’s bag was searched and her phone was found. Her family were

contacted by the doctor on duty that night. They agreed to be at the

hospital first thing the next day.

First thing the following day, the guy was the first to arrive before

Sandra’s family members. Fortunately, Sandra was awake at the time so they

started talking. “I am so sorry for hitting you, everything happened so

fast. My name is George and you? ” he said. Sandra was too numb and in so

much pain to keep the conversion going but managed to reveal her name too.

She replied with a faint smile on her face as he spoke calmly to her.

Fortunately, that day was the beginning of something beautiful for Sandra

but she wasn’t aware yet. Due to the disappointments and heartbreaks in the

past, she didn’t want to acknowledge the gentleman’s fine qualities and

handsomeness. She turned blind eyes to those things and only concentrated

on getting better.

A week later, Sandra was discharged from the hospital. By that time, she

had grown fond of George due to all the times they spent togther at the

hospital while she was admitted. He visited her everyday and kept her

company whenever her family was absent. George paid the remaining hospital

bills and drove her home that day. Sandra’s mum was in the car as they

drove to her daughter’s house.

All through the ride, Sandra was asleep in the front sit, while her mum

gave directions from the back seat. George stole glances at the sleeping

beauty and for some strange reasons, he was happy having her as a part of

his life. The way she laid back on the car seat as she slept, got him

mesmerized by her beauty and pink lips.

All of a sudden, this new guy was into Sandra more than any other guy from

her past. Her mom noticed the way he looked towards her direction as he

drove the car. The elderly woman could tell that George liked her daughter

and it made her a bit happy.

Finally, they arrived at their destination. Jayce gently tapped Sandra to

wake her up. When she opened her eyes, she was happy that they had gotten

to her house and she thanked George for being too kind and caring. “Thanks

for everything, I can’t thank you enough for your kind heart and gesture.

God bless you” Sandra said, “Don’t mention, it’s my pleasure” he replied.

Instantly, Sandra’s mum figured she needed to give them some privacy so she

excused herself and walked inside the apartment. Sandra was about to alight

from the car too but was stopped by George. “Can we talk?” He asked, “Yeah,

sure!” She surprisingly replied. George took a deep breath and said; “I

would love to see you again, can that be possible?” He asked.

That question threw Sandra off balance because she wasn’t expecting any

advances from an amazing gentleman such as George. She didn’t want to get

her hopes high, due to all that happened to her in the past. Despite the

walls she was trying to build around her heart, George was bound on

crushing them.

“Can I see you again?” George repeated and Sandra finally gave a reply.

“Yes you can, but why?” She curiously inquired. He smiled faintly, looked

into her eyes and said; “Because you are amazing and I love talking to you.

Sandra was a bit shy and looked downwards. Her subtle gestures drove George

crazy and before she knew it, he leaned forward and gave her a soft Peck on

the Cheek.
