Enjoy the following
excerpt for Midwife to Destiny:
Ora focused on putting one foot in front
of the other as if she were a one-year-old learning how to walk. After turning
the corner and seeing the back of his head, she froze. She would know that head
anywhere. He’d grown his hair out a little, but his adorable, Will Smith ears
gave him away. Initiating the process of pivoting and sprinting out of the ED
unnoticed sprang to mind when he turned around and his gaze caught hers.
The air became charged with tension and
neither of them moved. Her heart threatened to pop out of her chest with the
force of each beat. The nurses stood between them, looking back and forth as if
they watched a tennis match. They didn’t bother to hide their expressions of
curiosity.
They’d never seen Ora behave in such a
manner. Not cool as a cucumber super nurse. Like herself, they kept looking at
the new doctor just because of his tall, broad-shouldered, gorgeous stature.
The past three years had matured him, adding a few lines around his eyes and
the new feature of a goatee with a moustache changed his countenance a little.
But otherwise, the same man she’d met three years ago, at least in the physical
sense, stood before her.
After an eternity, Ora snapped back to
attention. “Akwaaba, Dr. Lartey.
Welcome to the ward.” Madam Professional stuck out her hand for a handshake.
Her words seemed to drag him out of his
own stupor. “Uh….”
She had rendered the man speechless.
Ora’s gracious nature—that’s what she blamed it on, anyway—took pity on him and
she touched his shoulder. The contact sent sensual awareness through her and
she recoiled her hand.
“Hello, Aurora. Please forgive me. It’s
just that I’m a little surprised to see you.”
“Not as much as I am,” she muttered,
attempting to squash both the joy bubbling up inside of her at seeing him again
and the overwhelming sadness of what she’d been missing for so long.
“Pardon me?” he asked.
“I didn’t expect to see you here. It’s a
surprise to me, too.” She tried to smile, but it came out contorted, as if
she’d been able to have a painful, rocky bowel movement after being constipated
for seven days.
