what a weekend

In the morning after I finished up my chores, I headed to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. As I was standing in the kitchen cutting vegetables to fry eggs, I started to feel dizzy and weak all of a sudden.

I paused for sometime,sat down, drank water and stood up to continue.

My cousin was standing by me at that time . She asked ," Debbie are you okay? Should I call mum? "

Oh no dear don't worry I'm fine . After some seconds ,I found myself down the floor.

She then rushed to call mum. Mum ignored her thinking that it's some sort of joke but seeing how eager serwaa was, followed her to the kitchen. Debbie!!! She screamed, and rushed me to the bathroom. She poured me water till she realized I'm gaining my consciousness. But I was still weak, she then carried me to her bedroom.

Huh? What has happened, I heard mum praying like never before. She has now remembered that she is the wife of a pastor.

She then called my dad on phone to inform him.

"Ernie , please come over soon Deb has fainted off.

Immediately, dad drove to the house. I wonder why he would come over for me to the hospital. When he scolds me unnecessarily.

They got me dressed ready to take me to the hospital.

About fifteen minutes later, we arrived at the hospital. We waited at the OPD but dad couldn't wait for that long. He then used the link and protocols he had and soon, I was attended to.

Doctor: Mr Ernie, I've examined your daughter and I found out it is stress. Please let her have enough rest. She has also become anaemic due to the stress. Her blood level has gone down. Take very good care of her so she would recover soon.

Ernie: Alright doctor, I will heed to it. Thank you very much I'm grateful. We will take our leave.

Dear let's get going. He's given some medications for you to take. No need to worry.

We drove off. I hope you heard what the doctor said. Take very good care of yourself and dont stress yourself so much.

I said to myself, you trust Rhyda so much that whatever I say turns out to be lies. You never give me any chance to speak. Now here you are lecturing me .

He found out I was lost in thought so he asked ." Are you thinking of anything? Anything I should know ? Why are you so quite ? Speak to me Debbie."

Not as if he will listen to me anyway when I talk. He's only trying to care because I'm sick. I know it all.

He snapped at me, hellooo Debbie are you okay?

Yes...yes I'm fine. "Why then are you not responding to me"

It's nothing dad, how is my bro and mum Lin? My regards to them.

Alright I will tell them . She even wanted you to come over during vacation. Is there any need I should know of?. No dad I'm fine.

We got home and I went straight to the room to sleep.
