Soyayya - A Love Story Episode 9

Episode 9:

The next day, Samirat came to my hospital. I was a little bit surprised to see her, but it was heart pleasing to finally get to see her again.

Salama alieku (Peace be unto you) she said. Amiwalieku wasallam (and to you too) I replied. She was more beautiful than she was. She forced a smile on her face, and I smiled back. Let's get on with the test she said.

I quickly got the nurses and the persons needed and we were up in the lab. I took the sample of her blood, run a few test, gave it to the Lab Doc. while we await the result.

Can you send me the details of the result when it's ready please? I need to get going. Kahu (uncle) needs me right now she said. I held her hand tight and pulled her back while she stood up to leave. Not even a hug? I asked. The atmosphere became dim and love filled the air. We hugged so tightly that none of us was ready to let go. Not until another call came in from her uncle.

Here is the test result sir, the Lab Doc. said as he handed the sheet to me. Sadly indeed, the result proved positive to cancer. She has cancer of the lungs. A deadly one at that.

Excuse me Dr. Bassey. I called back the Lab Doc. just while he was about to exit my office door. Yes sir. Is there a way we can manipulate the result and make it appear as if the cancer is just at its early age? Of course sir. But why sir? It is very important, just do it for me please. OK sir.
