Depuis le début
                                    

"Can't you drive any faster!! "

"I'm trying Kelvin,  okay!  "

He responded as we were now on third mainland bridge still driving as fast as we could.  I whipped out my phone still feeling agitated and i tried to call her hoping to calm my racing heart down but it didn't work . the line kept saying it wasn't going through , I kept on trying  until it said the number was switched off.  Now I was scared and frustrated its was either she switched off her phone or network was playing tricks on me and now wasn't the time.

" what's wrong bro she ain't picking up"

"What sort of stupid question is that,  will I look this frustrated if she did"

"Hey don't you dare try to insult me young man . I am your older brother soo you better respect that"

"Why should I, this has nothing to do with respect here. You asked a stupid question and I gave a stupid answer! "

" oh oh really? now you are just  being down right sarcastic!. "

" well you brought this on yourself man , you see how worried and frustrated I look yet your still asking a question with an obvious answer!  "

"Oh my,  so now its my fault for being  so worried and asking questions! "

it was just a mater of milliseconds we heard a loud horn signalling there was an incoming lorry.  Unfortunately we couldn't stop in time to avoid The Clash. that was how everything went boom in my ears the last thing I head was someone yelling that our car was on fire and we were trapped  in there.  How  we survived the crash I don't know but the next time I opened my eyes I was in the hospital room with no memories of what happened last

....

I opened my eyes 5 seconds later and sat up straight immediately panting and hyperventilating trying to steady  my breathing as my heart was racing.
But I heard her voice, I heard her  sweet angelic voice still calling out to me I couldn't help it as a stray tear escaped my eyes. I thought I'd never see her again,  I thought I never hear sweet voice again but here I was hearing it and I scanned the room to look for the source only to find her sitting right next to me in hospital bed.  She looks more beautiful than the last time I remembered how time flies I gave her a weak smile before calling out her name testing it to see how it rolls of my tongue again,  even though my voice sounded raspy and different I didn't  care I just kept calling her Ella.

I wrapped my arms loosely round her burning my face into the crock of her neck. Her smell had visible effect on me,  calming my racing  heart immediately. She smelled like coconut and warm chocolate and I sighed in satisfaction before saying

"Pls don't leave me again, I'd do any thing to make you stay,  pls Ella. "

"Of cus Kelvin I'm not leaving you,  not now not ever "

She reassured  me hugging me tight but not too tight so that she wasn't choking me. I smiled, after a while we pulling away but I was still  holding  tight to her so she laid there with me on the hospital's bed.  We decided to finally talk about what happened 4 years ago since I have my memories back. But i started by saying

"I've really missed you Ella"

"I've missed you too Kelvin"

"I'm sorry I couldn't keep  my promise of meeting you, and giving you the best Valentines day /birthday gift at Hard Rock Café, 4 years ago. "

"gasp Awwwn you remembered!? "

"I didn't but your presence here today brought it all back. "

"Sniffs a tear O.M. G what?  What happened  that day? "

"Well were supposed to meet there but my brother and I were involved in a car crash. it was either we weren't paying attention to the road  due to our argument or it was a set up.  Hopefully its the former, it took a  while before we were rescued and hospitalized in the best hospital in Lagos. the treatment me and my brother were receiving wasn't working and soo we had to change hospital,  we flew all over to Chicago for proper treatment that's where I got better but not with out me and my brother spending 3 months in coma. By time we woke up I had absolutely no memory of what happened that year. my phone got spoilt  in the crash and that's  how  I lost your number. "

"Wow I am sooo sorry Kelvin,  I have no idea.  I thought it was a prank or you bailed on me on our very first date...  My mom went with me that day, we waited for you at  the cafe but nothing.  She was the one that eventually took me home when we didn't see or hear from you  "

"I am soo sorry I made you feel like that,  you know I would never hurt you on purpose.  I actually  tried calling but it wasn't going through. "

" I know  I'm sorry I didn't believe you when you said you didn't remember.  Or when my mom told me about your accident.  I was just Soo blinded by anger. "

" its alright,   I'm just  glad I'm back  in your arms,  where I truly belong Ella"

We smiled at  each others contented that we were able to solve our different and what  happened 4 years ago.  Before i could help it sleep had slowly lured me away from my darling  my hold around her began to loosen.  I  fell into a deep slumber knowing that all was well and Ella my one and only was right  here with me. I smiled in my sleep as i felt her small heart shaped lips peck me on the nose.
