Poisoned

"Doctor, how's my husband?" Blessing asked the doctor who had come out of the emergency room.

"Ma'am please wait here." The doctor ran in the other direction and came back holding an oxygen tank. 

"Mom, do you think he'll be okay?" She asked Anastasia who was quiet since they came here. She never even cried. She was like a zombie. While Blessing was not any better. Make up was smashed everywhere on her face, she was pale and shivering. The mucus mixed with her tears.

"Here ma'am " Matilda came back three cups of coffee. One for her and two for Blessing and Anastasia.

"It's all my fault" Anastasia said for the first time since they came to the Hospital. If  only she knew that Austin's half brother was his enemy then her son wouldn't be in there, lying like a dead person.

"Mom, calm.down it's not your fault." Blessing and Matilda consoled her. She finally broke down. The thought of losing her only son gave her endless pain. As a mother her pain would increase day by day.
