THE WEDDING
The Wedding – Episode 22
Theme: Can I Love You?
………………………………
Nigel got home in the evening to talk to Selena who’s still angry about the incident that happened before.
Anna and Jean were currently not in the house as they had gone back to their own house to give the couple their needed privacy.
Selena was drinking in the living room and playing loud music, Nigel turned the music off.
Nigel: This is a house not a club, Selena quit doing this.
Selena: It’s not like you care, I mean, you no longer live here right?
Nigel: What are you talking about Selena this is my house.
Selena: Then come back and continue being my husband again. Don’t leave me for her, you can’t really trust her. What if she’s planning to finish what she didn’t finish the last time? Open your eyes and see the reality Nigel.
Nigel: Can I trust you?
Selena: What? What do you mean by that Nigel?
Nigel: I’m just asking if I can trust you since you said I can’t trust Rose.
Selena: It’s not fair that you’re treating me this way, all I’ve done is love you and you have so much distrust for me. I wish I could turn back the hands of time, I’d have not fallen in love with you and suffer like this.
Nigel: I’m not making you suffer Selena, you know I like you. I can’t feel more than that, my heart belongs to Rose. She’s already filled all the spaces left in my heart.
Selena: (Scoffs) I don’t believe in giving up or backing down. I don’t believe in no spaces left, my type of love says no one can have you if I can’t. That’s the truth.
Nigel: This is the reason you’re hurting so much Selena. That belief is stupid and selfish, you’re gonna end up alone if you don’t stop. Because you’ll still be chasing what’s not meant for you while the one meant for you passes you by.
Selena: Still I’m not giving up. At least not now, I’ll prove to you that you can love someone else even if she’s not Rose ( Walks away)
Nigel: (Palms his face) This will be harder than I thought. Gosh, what do I do with her?
He picked his phone and call Rose.
(On the phone)☎️☎️☎️
Rose: Darling.
Nigel: My love, are you done with work?
Rose: Yes. I just need to attend to a few patients, I’ll be going in twenty minutes. What about you?
Nigel: I’m on my way to pick you up. Have you heard from Cathy and my son?
Rose: Yeah. We talked an hour ago and we agreed to meet at home. I miss my baby though.
Nigel: I’m on my way to pick you up now, just wait for me.
Rose: Alright I’ll be waiting.
He hung up and went upstairs to change before picking his car keys and heading out.
He got to the hospital and went straight to her office. Just as he was about to enter, he got a strange text.
He opened it and saw a shocking sight, meanwhile, Rose came behind him and hugged him.
Nigel: (Startled) Ummm… Rose… Sweetheart… You’re here.
He quickly hid his phone in his pocket before she got to his front.
Rose: You sound off and you’re sweating under the AC. Is something wrong?
Nigel: No, nothing is wrong. What makes you think that?
A text also came to Rose’s phone, he snatched the phone from her before she could check it. And it turns out it’s the same text he received.
How will he tell her that Angel and Cathy have finally been kidnapped and the restaurant has been destroyed?
Those kidnappers sent a picture of Cathy tied up with Angel in her hands.
Rose: Hey, why did you collect the phone? What’s going on?
Nigel: Let’s go inside the office before anything.
Rose: Now, you’re scaring me.
They went inside the office, he sat her down hoping she will take it calmly.
Rose: Now tell me what is going on.
Nigel: Rose you need to calm down first.
Rose: I am calm Nigel, just tell me.
He brought out the phone and showed her the text. She covered her mouth, crying.
Rose: No. My baby, Cathy. How could he do this? My child is innocent and doesn’t deserve to be treated this way.
Nigel: I’m calling the Inspector right now, we have so many enemies. We don’t know who it is but I won’t spare Fred if he’s involved.
Rose: Let’s go report at the station immediately. Let’s ask that guy arrested, maybe he has an idea where my dad is.
Nigel: Rose… Don’t…
Rose: What? Why?
Nigel: He’s dead Rose, he was murdered at the hospital.
Rose: What?! By who? Why didn’t you tell me?
Nigel: I didn’t want you to worry yourself, I’m sorry.
Rose: What do you mean by not worrying myself? I am the child’s mother and I deserve to know everything that is happening. You have to tell me everything not hide some from me. We’re gonna talk about this later but now, we need to find my baby and my friend.
Nigel: Lets go tell the Police.
Rose changed and they left the hospital for the police station.
At the station…
Inspector Dave: We’re going to try all our best to get your son back. But who do you have in mind?
Rose: My father, Fred Gonzalez. He promised to hurt my son today if I don’t leave Nigel.
Nigel: She’s right Inspector. The man is very dangerous and has a lot of officers working for him, so I’m thinking he has someone in this station too.
Inspector Dave: Yes and we’re working on it. We will figure out who the traitor is. Fred Gonzalez has many murder cases against him from many years ago which he got away with. This time, I will make sure he pays for everything he has done.
Nigel: I’ll be expecting your call officer.
Rose: Officer I have someone else in mind.
Inspector Dave: Who, miss Gonzalez?
Rose: Selena Owens.
Nigel: What? Rose don’t do that. Because you had a fight with Selena doesn’t mean she’d kidnap Angel. Stop it.
Inspector Dave: Are you sure of what you’re saying miss?
Rose: Yes. She threatened to get me and my son out of the way, besides I think she’s working with my father.
Inspector Dave: That’s interesting. We’re going to call her here for questioning, but do you have a witness?
Rose: Nigel was there when she said it.
Inspector Dave: Mr Owens?
Nigel: Well…
TBC… @everyone
