Chapter 7

The Journey 2

Clarissa

The next morning I kept thinking about my pack and how much I missed everyone, the incident of my banishment kept replaying in my head, I wanted to go back but that would be suicide, I sat at the same spot I slept to the sky became pregnant, I know I needed shelter but where will I see a human chamber(house) that I can stay without having issues, I had to start walking down the road, hoping that a miracle would happen when a car passed me and stopped, the driver reversed and it was Jericho the werewolf doctor from the human hospital, he asked me to enter inside the car, and I did, he asked why I ran off, and I told him that I  didn’t want to remain in a human hospital, he asked me why I left the pack, I just told him that I was framed up and banish, he asked for the defile of what happened but I didn’t say any other thing, he said I could stay in his house for few days till we figure out something, "for how long have you been in the human territory" I asked he told me that he was born here, he said his mother was a Werewolf who fail in love with a human boy, her pack was against the love so she fled with the human, "so you are a half breed?" I asked, and he said yes.

Half breeds have never been considered werewolves because they cannot fully transform to a full wolf. They actually have supernatural strength, claws, and yellow, green, or blue eyes, but apart from that, they can’t fully transform. Nevertheless, something was odd about Mr. Jericho; his eyes are golden, and golden-eyed werewolves are the most powerful, so I wonder how a human half breed would have a golden eye.

"How come you have a golden eye?" I asked. "My eyes have been like this since I was a kid," he replied. I asked him if he had ever transformed to a full wolf, and he said no. "Well, these are things you need to know before we reach my house." He said, "One, I’m married to a human, and I wouldn’t want her to suspect that you are a werewolf, because she will freak out. She doesn’t know much about the supernatural, and doesn’t even know that I’m one." Two, I don’t want her to suspect that you are my mistress, so I’m going to tell her that you are my distant cousin, and please don’t make her think otherwise," he added. I assured him that I’m not going to cause him any trouble at all.

I have been looking for the perfect person to work as my Grandma’s care giver, but work hasn’t given me much time for that, our rival firm SUN group, have develop a new social media app that has more feature than ours, and many youths are beginning to use theirs than our, so I ordered researchers and engineers to work together  in improving our app, so we don’t loose our market, this recent development has eaten me up, and has given me sleepless night, I have not really had time to look for granny’s caregiver, till one morning, I was in office checkingour market in the past few weeks, and the progress of our engineers when Doctor Elijah called me to tell me that Granny’s health isn’t getting better, I rushed out to the hospital, reaching the hospital, the receptionist started smiling at me, I asked her about Elijah, while i was still talking, a nurse came down and lead me to Elijah’s office.

Jericho has a beautiful family; his wife was beautiful, and he has two lovely kids, Mary and John. They are Christians. Jericho’s wife was heavily pregnant, so I decided to help with the house chores.

One morning Jericho has gone to work, the kids has gone to school and as I was sweeping I heard a loudscream, I rushed in and Jericho’s wife was in labour, I tried using the human phone, but I’m yet to get used to it, I gave Jericho’s wife the phone as she dialsthe husband’s number, I told Jericho that his wife was in labour, after that, I started massaging Jericho’swife, till Jericho arrived and we helped his wife enter the car, I locked up the house and joined them, we rushed to the hospital, we helped her go into the labour room, Doctor Elijah was with someone in his office , so the midwife was the one in charge of the childbirth, while the where telling her to push, I started thinking about childbirth and the pain a mother goes through to deliver a child, "It’s a bouncing baby boy" the midwife announced, everyone was happy, and I was smiling, after which I left.

Reaching the doctor’s office we exchange pleasantries, he offered me a sit and I sat down, he started telling the urgency of getting a caregiver for granny, I told him that, I want to get one myself, I asked him if granny was taking her drugs, he said not always as expected, after having some conversation with him, I went to see Granny, I cheered her up and made her smile, it was around 4:00pm and I decided to go home, while going I bump into a lady she was in a haste and you can see it, I was upset but looking at her face I realise that she was familiar but I couldn’t remember where I met her, "I’m sorry" she said, "where are you rushing to" i asked but she was silent and was acting like someone who is trying to figure out what to say, I asked her what she was doing at the hospital, and she said that her in-law just gave birthday, "that’s good news" I said and she nodded in agreement, "what your name" I asked, she said her name is Clarissa, I told her that she has a nice name, I asked her of her work she said she is not working, I asked for her phone number but she said she doesn’t have a phone, which is kind of strange because everyone has phone, she left and I went back to Elijah’s office but he has left before I reached there, I guess its for official issue so I didn’t bother calling him, I just went back home.
