Lol, I see what you did there

But, wha the heck, let's do it.

And she picked the gauntlet.......

~Two Months Later~
[final chapter]


I wiped my hands once more on my peach satin flowing gown, before manuvering my way through the crowd, which seemed busy with one thing or another all in preparation. But that seemed easy because, nothing breaks a crowd than a heavily pregnant lady on a mission

“Thank God” Jane breathed out as soon as she saw me. “I thought you bailed, and I would've come drag your áss back here”

“No need for that, I'm here” I rolled my eyes at her exaggeration. I just went to pee that's all.
“So? You ready to do this?” I smiled widely at my bestfriend. She looked glorious in her long flowing lace patterned wedding dress, with her bouquet in hand. Dave is a lucky guy that's for sure, cause I know he got the best girl a guy could ask for
She took a deep breath before smiling nervously.“I don't know Gina”. She confessed and I could feel her jitters as I held her hands
“We've been planning this for a while now and it's always been a sure thing, but now that it's here, I can't help but feel scared. What if something goes wrong or it doesn't go as planned?” her face turned sour almost immediately, and worry etched on her perfectly made up face.
“What if he gets cold feet, or I get cold feet?”

“Hey, I nudged her with a smile, before turning around to sit on the couch pulling her down with me.
“You're overthinking this. It's a wedding, which means it should be a day where all you have to do is smile and let everything play out. Remember when I was about walking down the aisle and what you said to me when I was nervous?” I asked and she smiled in knowing
“Remember to keep marching forward, because I'll be the one in the crowd yelling for you not to fall flat on your face” we both chorused and laughed as I saw the relieve on her face
“Thanks Gina” she squeezed my hands gently and I nodded before she got up and helped me up as well
“Lets get you married” I beamed but feel a part of my chest constrict from the thought of a missing a particular person. She nodded and soon we are heading out to the waiting vehicle and a whole lot of well wishers and bride squads. We all got in and soon on our way to have a wedding

************

“To my best friend and her husband” I held the glass of non alcoholic grape wine in one hand and a mic in the other. “The most wonderful person in the world. We've been through so much that's for sure” I smiled knowingly as I reminisced about old times.
“I remember one time she called out a lady for being unfair to her friend because she cut in line pushing me out of the queue in the process. After much argument, she won for sure and we got what we went for and left the scowling lady now at back of the line” I smiled as she smiled also from her seat next to her husband. “We need to fight for injustice she had boasted as we left” and the guests laughed lightly
“Congratulations to you both, and may this union be blessed with all you both desire” I raised my glass “To Jane and Dave” I yelled and the guests did same, clinking their glasses in toast as I stepped down and went to hug them both before making my way to my seat, the entertainer taking over the stage

“That was beautiful” he whispered in my ears before sitting close to me in the reserved seat.

“Where have you been? You missed everything” I asked angrily as I crossed my hands on top of my belly

“I think I heard the most important part and saw the most beautiful pregnant lady up there saying beautiful things about someone she cares about. Seems to me like I came right on time” he shrugged and my mouth almost dropped from his justification of being late to his wife's bestfriend's wedding

“You're unbelievable” I scoffed “I leave you alone for two days to be with her and help her prepare for her day, and you show up late?”

“Its your fault for leaving me alone” he replied before silencing me with a kiss on the lips when I was about speaking more, and all the words forming in my head dissolved and turned to goo as I kissed him back, hoping no one was watching or wouldn't have even bothered if they were because, I haven't seen him for two whole days, and I missed him that much


The doctor called what happened two months ago a medical glitch. A heart transplant patient, his body eventually rejecting the transplant, but a freak accident suddenly turns around and causes things back on track instead of causing more damage. He hit his chest on the dashboard after my accident freaked him since he was driving the doctor had said
He confessed in all his twenty years of being a doctor he never had seen such and called it a wonder. But I call it a “chance” it's the universe way of keeping me sane

Death is inevitable and can come at any point in time without given a fair warning just because it can. But I want to believe that he'll be here long enough to put a smile of my face everyday, and if one day fate decides to show its ugly face, I just hope we're prepared enough to accept it without regrets. But for now, we'd like to live everyday like it's our last cause we've seen a taste of what our last could really look it wasn't pleasant

“Oh oh” I muttered and immediately Daniel's head snapped up to me

“What's wrong? He questioned looking at my frame

“My water just broke. Baby's coming” I smiled widely at my husband

“Baby's coming” he repeated as his face lit up in joy. And my smile widened as I took in his happiness. He is going to see the birth of his child and that itself is a miracle on its own. But my smile fell short as the contraction hit me and I gulped down biting down on my lower lip in pain

“Now Daniel" I said through gritted teeth and would've have burst into laughter if I wasn't in pain as he got up abruptly from the chair panic ridden already, as he scrambled for his car keys and finally helped me up as we tried not to draw attention to ourselves

“Lets go have a baby” I whispered, and he nodded, his smile now back on his face


~The End~

It's the end guys, and this has been amazing.

@YINKS89, see what I did there? Bet you didn't see that one coming

The moral, if there was any, was kinda in the title. Our choices sometimes brings about chances, some so surreal it questions logic. But it happens. And sometimes the universe just throws it at us for going through so much and wants to compensate


So, to all my readers, both ghost and non ghost, you guys are amazing, and thanks for reading and commenting

purityval:


And she picked the gauntlet.......

Of course. Can't miss my some.... some....

Wow.Lilyjoe567,thanks for not making me cry at the end. You've completed another great one. I must say I didn't expect things to turn round like this. You're a STAR

Wow! Good ending... But not just the ending, I commend your effort in giving out such a suspense-filled story.

ugat mi dre bt lemme juz keep mut for others to comment first b4 sayin ma own.

Applause!!! You're really good. But you've broken my heart. Whatever happened to logic I really do believe that accidents happen and that miracles exist (in fact, everyday) but I was longing for a sad ending. Permit me to be weird but I am not one for DisneyLand when it comes to stories.

Now, seriously, you deserve a bouquet cos you are amazing. I'd pretty much appreciate if you smiled while reading this. Here, have my heart and a kiss.

You're very right, there's gotta be right logic and reasoning, but have you heard cases of a sixty year old lady or older getting pregnant and giving birth, or a case of a very close to death old person who have all signs plastered all over for death beckoning, going on living for years or more before eventually dying.

There things that happen that makes one question life and sometimes doubt the logic and sometimes just make you look at life differently, beyond what's placed in front of you

There was this movie I watched, heard it happened for real, a guy had cardiac arrest and died, monitors stopped beeping and ran on a straight line, but then this guy woke up and talked, said all he wanted and it lasted for five good minutes, all the while the monitor still plugged to him was still running on a straight line as it was when he was pronounced dead. The man finished before finally giving up. It shocked everyone in the hospital cuz there was no explanation for it

So, I'm so sorry it wasn't the ending you expected, but I really wanted to show that little unexplainable thing that happens that defies logic and just make you simply wonder “How and Why”

I accept the heart and kiss BTW
