The love package; My Darling wife and baby girl

Eric Crown rushed into the hospital, carrying the injured woman mindful of the fact that she is heavily pregnant. He left his assistant Andrew behind, who was trying to catch up with him. Andrew had tried to carry the woman from Eric but he refused to allow him or even allowed his driver touch her. ""Somebody help me" Eric immediately alarmed the hospital nurse at the reception immediately he entered with the injured woman. The emergency staff and nurses ran to him immediately seeing the injured woman in Eric's arms. Doctor what can be done for her Eric asked she is so seriously injured. We have to get the baby out of her first, the doctor replied assessing her injuries. We will try to save her life, I hope the baby is still alive the doctor added. What! Eric exclaimed shock. Take her to the operating theatre the doctor instructedthe emergency personnel there. The nurses and emergency staff put her on a hospital stretcher, and started wheeling her to the operation theatre. A nurse came with some papers for Eric to sign, he didn't even look at them he just signed. Dr. Robert, the medical director of the hospital was already informed of Eric's coiming. He just got to Eric at this time and asked who the woman involved in the accident was? Eric, still in shock with blood all over his shirt and trousers turned to Dr. Robert puzzled. What does that have to do with anything ? Dr. Robert was surprised by Eric's answer. Mr. Crown, I wanted to know if she was a family member he explained. No, I don't know her. She was hit by my car and we just rushed her here. Dr. Robert has known Eric for a long time, well known for his compassion and charity work but he never get emotionally involved. From the look on Eric's face, Dr. Robert felt there can only be one explanation then asked "were you driving" ? No, my driver was Eric answered. I see, you don't need to wait. Be rest assured we will take good care of her, it's just that from what I have seen she is in a critical condition. How critical Eric asked Dr. Robert. She might not survive Dr.Robert answered heavily, we were all quiet until a nurse came and told Dr. Robert they were ready for him at the operating theatre, he left with the nurse. She can't die, she cannot die Eric told himself. He felt this strong sense of attachment to her. Why is he feeling like this? As if, as if we have met before he thought. Sir, sir. sir? Andrew called out, touching Eric's shoulder lightly. Eric don't know how long he stood there but he suddenly realized Andrew was calling out to him. Sir, you need to change, there is a rest room over there Andrew said holding a change of clothes for him and pointing toward the restroom. Eric just continued to sit there, dazed! The incident playing over and over again in his mind. How come she was on the road at this time of the night? He wondered. She is heavily pregnant, why would any man allow his wife to move around at this time of the night?, and she was alone. Come to think about it, Eric didn't notice any wedding ring on her he thought, probably he didn't look properly. Mr. Crown, a nurse called out . Eric Crown looked up at her wondering when he sat down. Andrew immediately asked her what she wanted We need to know her name for our records she said We don't know Andrew answered.. But... It's an emergency, we had to rush her here, she was already unconscious Andrew explained. Then Dr. Robert suddenly came out of the Operating theatre, pulling off his face mask. We stood up as he walked toward us, eager for news . You have a baby girl Dr. Robert said smiling Me ? Eric asked surprised!

Unclear Feelings...

Eric Crown got into the car and Kevin drove straight to the office complex. The Crown Tower is a formidable building on the industrial road, with it's blue colorful glass windows and doors.

As we drove into the underground parking space, Eric noticed some people sitting down at the entrance. Andrew was already waiting for him as Eric got out of the car, what's with all those people at the gate he asked Andrew.

Sir, the HR department is conducting recruitment for some positions in the new branch opening up next month he explained.

Okay, but that's a lot of people I saw out there Eric remarked. Tell them to quickly increase the number of personnel conducting the interview, I don't want to see that crowd in the next two hours.

Yes sir Andrew answered, immediately making a call.

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

Eric just finished a meeting concerning acquisition of a company and it didn't go as well as he had expected.

His team didn't do their review of the company well, and it looks like a lot of the staff have to be led off. Eric try to avoid transactions where people will be deprived of their livelihood.

Yes some times it cannot be avoided but not to this magnitude.Eric always try to minimize this kind of fell out.

Andrew, I want those points outlined in the meeting looked into and this time no half measures Eric instructed sternly.

I'm sorry sir. Should have looked through that report I take responsibility Andrew answered.

Eric didn't respond, he looked through the car window as they head to the airport. This is the business district of City V and it's always very busy at this time of the day but the traffic is still moderate now. In the next hour or so this road will be jammed, I need to see her. I can't travel without seeing her.

Kelvin, head to the hospital instead Eric instructed.

What? Andrew turned on the passenger sit in front to look at his boss behind, surprised. Sir, you will miss your flight. Traffic will not favorable at by the time we're heading back.

Eric ust nodded his head to let him know he heard him.

As we head to the hospital, Eric heard Andrew rearranging his flight time and plan. He knows there was no way we would make the scheduled flight time.

Eric got to the hospital, and was met by Dr. Robert, who followed him to the mystery woman's room, Wondering if he should just give her a name? He was tire of calling her mystery woman.

Dr. Robert was giving me a report on her condition. It seems nothing has changed and Eric felt a bit frustrated.

Eric wants to meet her, he wants to know what happened to her. He wants her to meet her daughter who is growing everyday. Eric wants answers, and he is already getting impatient.

Eric at by her bed side staring at her. He signed heavily, wondering how long they have to wait.

Leave us he said.

Eric noticed Andrew looking at his wrist watch, and looking back at him, Ihe ust ignored him. Andrews knows this is the time when he just keeps quiet, he left with Dr. Robert.

Eric reached for her right hand and held it, it was kind of cold. Her left hand had an intravenous line connected to it to provide fluids and drugs.

Eric caressed the back of her hand and wished she would respond to him. Why does he feel this way towards a complete stranger?

Your daughter looks like you; She is beautiful Eric said to her. You have to wake up, she is growing everyday and I don't want you to miss out on any stage of her life.

I called her Sunshine, a befitting name don't you think? she is as bright as the Sun.

Eric suddenly laughed, "I don't even know your name yet but I feel like we have known each other for long".

Different thoughts were going through Eric's mind, why she is so familiar? Why do he feel this way about her? Why have I not slept well since that attempt on her life? why, why why?

Eric felt he should start thinking of a long term plan for Sunshine because anyone who falls into a comatose state is at risk of dying. In some cases, there may be a complete recovery with no loss of brain functioning, while in other cases, lifelong brain damage is the result.

So many questions, Eric noticed his phone vibrating. It was Andrew, he was sure it was to remind him of his flight.

Eric bent down and kissed her cheeks. I have to go, see you when I get back.

Eric met Andrew outside the mystery woman's room, he was on the phone and Eric just moved toward the entrance of the hospital.

On their way to the airport, he reminded myself not to get attached to either mother or daughter. Dr. Robert has told him that anyone who falls into a comatose state is at risk of dying. In some cases, there may be a complete recovery with no loss of brain functioning, while in other cases, lifelong brain damage is the result.

if the case is the latter than he has to start thinking of a long term plan for Sunshine, that thought made me sad.

....

When Eric got to City M, on the way to his office headquarters I sent Bolt a text. Any update?

When there was no reply from him, I knew he was somewhere he couldn't reply or he left his phone in a safe place.

I need to find out who she is it's over a month and no concrete information whatsoever. Someone must be suppressing any information concerning her but why?

And I am not at ease with her in that hospital, not at ease at all. I feel, yes my feelings what are they really?

I am in love with Sunshine, that is undisputed as for her mother my feelings are not clear. I know I feel a bit too anxious and concerned about her but maybe it's because I was involved in the accident.

But I know it's much more than that, I feel much more although I can't explain it. How can you have feelings for a woman you don't know I asked myself? Your car hit her for crying out loud, clear or unclear feelings you think she will want to have anything to do with you when she wakes up?

Oh boy I didn't think about that before but I took care of her and her baby.

Eric focus, get a hold of yourself. It's not like you lack feminine attention so why are you getting all this anxious feelings for a woman in coma?

As soon as we got to the office, I tried to concentrate on my work and forget about the mystery woman and her daughter. I tried but I didn't completely succeed.

I just moved the thought of her and her daughter to the side for the now. Sir, they are waiting for you at the board room Andrew said keeping his distance

I got up from my desk and head for my meeting. Telling myself that I need to get my mind on things I can control. This situation with the woman in coma is not what I can control, as for my unclear feeling, they are what they are ''unclear''.

There is nothing I can do about it now, I need to be patient which is something I don't have in abundance right now.

I just hope the information we're waiting for comes right now rather than later.
