"Now, let me sit and watch as things unfold", she said ,a wicked smile forming on her face, as she dropped the remaining cheque in front of Amy. 
Amy had no time to waste. She stood up to go without saying another word. She went to the bank to cash out the money. 
Meanwhile, after Amy left with the cheque, the woman's phone rang. 
"Are you through?"
"Yes ma'am, we did everything you asked us to do, disguising ourselves as doctors and infiltrating the hospital was the easiest"
"That's good. There's one last thing you have to do"
"Anything madam" 
"Follow her, when she finishes cashing the cheque, I want you to steal the money " she said. 
"Madam, that one is an easy job . It's done already".
"Thank you, and I need a positive feedback" she said as she dropped the phone on the table  in front of her. She was very happy, everything was going smoothly. Finally all her hard work would pay off and she'll have Mike all to herself. She smiled as she thought. 



It was evening already. Rose noticed that Sara had been sleeping for long, longer than usual

. She started sleeping around 1pm and it was 5pm already and she had not woken up. She went to her room to wake her up. She opened the door and found Sarah still sleeping. "Which kind of sleep is this one" she thought to herself. 
"Sara, wake up" she said as she shrugged her shoulders slightly. There was no response. 
"Sara" she tried again, still no response. 
"This is very strange" she thought. 

"Sara" she shouted as she hit her a little bit harder. Still Sara didn't budge. 
Rose started to panic. She started to hit Sara frantically trying to get her to wake up, but Sara didn't move. 
"Which kind of problem is this one now?" she asked herself. 
She decided to call Mike. 
"Hello? "
"Rose, how many times have I told you not to call me when I'm working?" Mike asked immediately he picked up the call. 
"Mike, this one is an emergency" Rose said. 
"I don't care, if it can't wait till I get back home then don't disturb me again" Mike said as he switched off the call. 
"Heiii, what do I do now?" Rose asked rhetorically. 
Then she realized that the hospital was the only place to go. She didn't care, she took her husband's car keys ,then slung Sara across her shoulder and sped to the hospital. 



She was waiting in the hospital lobby for the doctor to come and tell her what was wrong with her daughter. She called Lola and Tonye earlier and told them about what happened, they said they would be on their way to the hospital. "They should be here by now, Rose thought.  Immediately she saw Lola coming. 
"Rose, please explain more, what really happened?"
That was when Tonye also came inside. Rose was at least happy. She had friends to give her comfort when her husband wouldn't.
They asked her what had happened. She explained everything to them in details. 
"What is this one again now?, why would someone sleep and won't be able to wake up again? Tonye asked. 

"I can't even explain it" Rose replied.
Lola just continued to shake her head in worry. 
"So you're waiting for the doctors now?" Lola asked. 
"Yes oo, they're still checking what's wrong. I just pray nothing has happened to my daughter" Rose said already crying. 
"Don't cry, we're here. Nothing would happen to Sara" Lola and Tonye said trying to console her. Tonye leaned her on her body as Lola rubbed her back. 
"All would be well" they assured her. 
But she cried on, it seemed the words had no effect in consoling her. The doctor in charge of her daughter finally came out. 
"Madam, I'm sorry to say this, I won't waste your time so let me just be straightforward"
"Your daughter is dead, very deadly substances was found in her system, she was poisoned".
