HOW DID I GET MARRIED?

Nathan was in an important meeting when Joanna called, his phone was on silent and he was too focused to care at the moment.

After the meeting, Nathan walked straight to his office exhausted. He called his assistant Jenner and asked for a cup of coffee then switching his phone from silent.

There were countless text messages from Joanna, his brows furrowed the both of them hardly spoke now she was sending him text messages?

Once he read the first text he bolted up from his seat and headed for the door

"Sir your coffee....."

Jenner heard a 'whoosh' beside her, Nathan already left taking large strides to the underground parking lot.

'Is it just me or did the boss look like he was.....panicking?'

"Nah" Jenner said to herself, that man never shows any emotions it was definitely her imagination.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Joanna paced back and fort in front of the emergency room, she was nervous what if something bad happened?,

She would definitely get in trouble with Shola's mom...forget Shola's mom what about Nathan?. And most importantly, her best friend's life was at stake because of her.

"What happened? " Nathan said from behind Joanna, there was a hint of anger in his voice

"What were you thinking telling her about that man, you knew how much she wanted to forget and the doctor warned against things like this!"

Joanna could only look down guilt ridden, she felt she was as stupid as everyone says

"*sobs* Nathan I really didn't mean to, I... I just thought it would have been better if she knew I really didn't mean to..."

Nathan saw how Joanna was struggling to speak in between sobs and sighed,

she must have been as shocked as he was and here he was scolding her

"Don't dwell on it anymore, lets just hope that she is fine" Nathan comforted as he sat down and buried his face in his palms 'I shouldn't have left her alone at home in the first place'

A female doctor that looked like she was in her early thirties soon walked out, she looked slightly exhausted but with a slight smile on her face.

"Joanna, Nathan?"

she looked at the two people whose faces were filled with worry and didn't know how to break the news to them

"How, how is she?" Nathan asked as he walked up to Lillian, he saw that slight smile on her face and knew bad news was coming

"She is fine but.....she fell into a coma again and we're not sure when she'll wake up or....."

"Or what?, why are you silent?" Joanna hated suspense! her heart was already beating out of her chest and here this woman was, making her anxiety worse

"We're not sure when she'll wake up or, if she will wake up"

Lilian's words were like a bomb in their heads

"She won't wake up?" Nathan spoke his voice a bit hoarse, he looked at his cousin and his gaze turned cold

"Did my mom put you up to this?"

"What...Nathan, Sholana is my friend! you really think I would take orders from aunt just to hurt your wife?, I'm a doctor not a gangster. I really thought you were smarter than this"

Lilian's brown eyes were filled with anger, she hadn't even spoken to her aunt for the past 3months!

"I want to see her" Nathan said, all he cared about right now was seeing her.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::Shola's eyes opened to a brightly lit surrounding, the skies were bright and the trees were swaying gently because of the wind, birds were singing softly making the atmosphere extremely relaxing

"I love you" Shola heard a deep but soft voice almost whisper to her.

The man's dark green eyes looked gentle, he looked at her lovingly and said those three words again but

this time it was filled with sincerity and made Shola feel warm deep inside

"I know you hate men, there's no chance that you'll ever feel the same way but....I won't give up!, we are married and we have our whole lives ahead of us.

Sholana Gregory, I will make you mine!"

His eyes were as deep as an ocean, Shola felt like she would drown in them but soon she heard herself speak words she didn't want to

"In your dreams Mr Lu" her voice was cold void of any emotions, she herself was scared at the tone of her voice but there was not a hint of disappointment on Nathan's face just a gentle smile on his face

"In my dreams, you're already mine Sholana"

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::Nathan sat at Shola's bedside, he had just suceded in sending Joanna home after 3 days of waiting.

Shola still hadn't woken up but he didn't lose hope, he wiped her face clean with the wet towel he was holding.

He got a text on his phone and silently opened it, his gaze was in the screen for a while but soon drifted to the sleeping woman next to him, her pink lips were slightly open and moving like she was struggling to say something,

Nathan move his head closer to her lips and finally caught what she was saying, his lips curled up into a smile as he kept listening

"Nathan...I love you too"
