Babysitter for the CEO

4



At Lisa’s room, things were turning bad. Her BP had been 89% and they brought it down to 39 who knew that it would immediately deteriorate to 22%.

, and Some nurses cried. It wasn’t because they’d lose their jobs but because this poor sweet Lisa was going to die. She hadn’t even enjoyed life yet. “Lisa’s father removed the headphones. “Is she stiff yet?” he asked with a deadpan face shocking the medical staff in the room. His baby girl was fighting for her life, and he is praying for her death? Exactly how heartless is he? The doctors didn’t know how to reply and her father shook his head. “Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Best doctors? Really? I feel that you guys are the best clowns. She won’t survive anyway.” he walked to Lisa whose lips were becoming pale. “She’s already dead. Now I won’t have to deal with her annoying disturbances. I won’t close this hospital,” he then pulled off the oxygen mask from Lisa’s face. “I will leave her here. Do what you wanna do with her. I will give you guys 500 million each to keep mum about this issue. It’s best if one of you take her home for burial. As of today, she’s not my daughter. Dead people aren’t my relatives but only LIVING PEOPLE,” Lisa’s father said with a smile that sent shivers down the medical staff’s spines. “Alright! We’re done here” Lisa’s father then walked out of the Vip room wearing headphones and this time listening to rap music even humming along. All the staff looked at each other and back at the little Lisa. “Did he just disown his only child? He’s too heartless!” a doctor said. Majority of them left Lisa to the head doctor who was a female. She sighed and shook her head before leaving the room. Lisa’s father had forbidden them from helping her so they could only pray. *********** Back at the VIP ward, Vanessa woke up and screamed attracting the nurse’s and Vanessa’s attention. “What is it?” Evelyn asked in concern. It shocked her and the nurse that the medicine did not affect Vanessa for long. “You must take me there. She’s dying,” Vanessa cried. “Now the person has turned to a female?” Evelyn sighed. “I’m very sure of this” Vanessa defended. Her eyes held anxiety in them. “You… just rest. It must be a nightmare” Evelyn tried to console Vanessa but she wouldn’t take it. “Miss.. please rest and free your mind. This worry isn’t good for you,” the nurse said but Vanessa shook her head. “Forget it!” Vanessa threw down the blanket and put her legs down. “What are you doing?” Evelyn and the nurse cried out in alarm. “Nothing can stop me this time,” Vanessa said and stood up. “Vanessa sit down. You can’t walk” Evelyn cried out again in fear. “We’ll see,” Vanessa said and began running out of the room stunning Evelyn and the nurse. The nurse named Regina, and Evelyn looked at each other with surprise and uncertainty. “That.. that wasn’t a ghost, right? My Vanessa wasn’t fake, right? My Vanny can’t walk for now. How did she muster strength in her legs and ….” the nurse cut Evelyn off. “No dilly dallying. After her!” Regina screamed and both ran out of the room in haste. Evelyn caught a glimpse of Vanessa making a bend, and they ran in her direction. They were extremely worried about Vanessa. She is a patient and Evelyn’s best buddy. None of them could lose her. It got to the point where, Evelyn had to take off her heels, put them in hand and continue the chase. Vanessa, on the other hand, kept running but not aimlessly. She ran towards the direction of Lisa’s room and stopped exactly opposite the room which was left unlocked and turned to see a little girl lying unconscious in bed. She felt much more pain in her chest and immediately concluded that this was the girl. She turned around and saw that Evelyn and Regina were coming although their speed had slowed down because they were getting tired. “Stop right there Vanessa, stop,” Evelyn yelled. “Don’t you move. Stop,” Regina cried. Vanessa shook her head and entered the little girl’s room then she locked the door and kept the key in her pocket. She walked slowly to where the girl lay. Her lips and skin had become pale and her body was cold. Vanessa parted the hair that covered the little girl’s face, and her eyes widened in surprise. “Lisa?” she cried out upon recognizing the little girl. “How can this be? How can this be? My lively Lisa… Lisa? Can you hear me?” Vanessa took a chair to sit on beside Lisa and took her left hand that was cold. “Lisa, mummy is here. Lisa, my beautiful girl, open your eyes now. Mummy is here. Sorry for not coming early. Mummy is sorry. Lisa wake up,” Vanessa said in a whisper and began crying while rubbing Lisa’s hand hoping to warm her up. “My dear Lisa, don’t scare mum. Open your eyes and we’ll go eat anything you want. We’ll buy everything in the world that you like. Lisa… Lisa open your eyes” Vanessa cried. Evelyn and Regina who had just reached the door started knocking on the door but Vanessa did not open. She kept kissing Lisa’s small hands and rubbing them. “Lisa… Mum is at a loss on what to do. Lisa..” “Vanny, open the door now” Evelyn yelled from outside but Vanessa did not reply. All she cared about now was Lisa. “Lisa… please open your eyes,” she whispered again. Slowly, Lisa’s fingers trembled and the cold in her body vanished allowing the trapped heat to return. Her pale skin was regaining color again and her lips were again rosy. It surprised Vanessa at this turn of events. This wasn’t short of a miracle. She was just so happy that Lisa was alive. Nothing else mattered. “Baby, I know you can do it. Baby Lisa” she called out softly to the unconscious Lisa whose eyelids trembled. “Lisa.. you’re a sturdy girl. Let mama see your beautiful eyes again,” Vanessa whispered again. Her words seemed to do magic as Lisa opened her eyes in two minutes. “Lisa” Vanessa called out and kissed Lisa’s forehead. “Lisa.. do you know how worried I was?” “You said you are my mama,” Lisa said in a parched voice. “Yes, I’m your mama,” Vanessa said with a nod. She doesn’t even know why she referred to herself as Lisa’s mama but so long as it’ll make Lisa happy she’ll agree for now. She’d agree to any request from her little princess. She’d also go to any length to fulfill them. “My beautiful Lisa. My dear Lisa. Don’t scare me like this next time okay?” Vanessa said as she hugged Lisa.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
