His Surrogate Lover

I had arrived at school a little bit late today because I had to accompany Hailey to the hospital. Her sickness was getting worse and she needed to get her operation done as soon as possible. Hailey is the only family I have left and I am very willing to so anything, just anything to make sure she gets better. I have always been alone all my life, I wandered around the streets as an orphan . I didn't know who my parents was and and how I came to this Earth . I only know that I have been sleeping by the roadsides that's all I could remember. I beg around for money to feed until David McCallum found me one day and he brought me to his home and I was just 12 then. he completed all the formalities and adopted me into his family. He gave me a home and a name, a debt I could never repay even if I had offered my life. He called me Bailey because he said he wanted my sister and I to have matching names and he would always say I have a very shining brown eyes and it always made me stand out among my peers. David was the father that I never had and his wife was the mother I never had. They accepted me into their family and they treated me like I was their own first child. Even their 10 years old daughter Hailey had accepted me as her elder sister. And we did everything together, from going to the same school to sleeping in the same room. We were like Evey other normal families, not until five years ago. Everything changed when dad had an accident and died from it, mum got an heart attack and it didn't take long before she died from it. Dad's brothers took away all the valuable things and properties. We were left with only the house which we ended up selling just to feed and also to help Hailey through school. I took on all sort of jobs to help us live. I was lucky enough to get a scholarship to study English in the university but suddenly Hailey fall sick and was diagnosed of her Brain cancer. Hailey's condition was getting worse every single day and there was no way I could get the amount of money required for the operation, even with the countless jobs I had . And after today's visit I knew that I l to be really fast and serious about getting the money ready, but how on Earth am I supposed to get $50000 ? I was totally lost in my own thoughts that I didn't even noticed the car that was park beside me. "Hey bea, how are you doing?". Stephen called from inside his Benz 2023.he stopped his car beside me and stretched out his hand through the window. "You got my stuff?" . Stephen king or Steve as he likes to be called is my classmate, his parents happens to be one of the wealthiest in town. However, Steve finds it really hard to do his homework himself. So I get to do his homework and get paid for it. "Yeah, right here".I said handing him his note book and he gave me 10$ for it. "Thanks" I said and turned to leave "Bailey, have you given my offer a thought?". I stopped on my tracks turn back to face giving him a small smile before answering him. " Thanks once again Steve, but I think I will rather not take that offer, it would be best if I rather stick to doing your assignment and getting paid for them than being your girlfriend". " So you are rejecting me"?. Steve asked with a grin on his face. " No Steve". I said holding his hand. He nodded to my response but I could clearly see in his eyes that he was hurt by my rejection so I leaned closer to the window and used my hand to rise his chin and said "Really, I am seriously not rejecting you, but I just real don't want to be in any sort of relationship at this point in my life". " Since we are good friends why don't you just allow us to continue being friends then"..He nodded and he said "It's okay love, I really don't mind being your friend for now but sooner or later I will surely make you change your mind". " Steve........" " Take care love ". He said and he immediately drove off, he simply didn't want to hear me reject him over and over again. I took a deep breath and walked out of school. The last thing I need right now is getting my heart disturbed by the word called "love" . I already have alot of things on my table to think about and I really don't want to add love to the list . I was at the bus station, standing waiting for the bus that I usually take while going home. I noticed that I wasn't alone there were also two ladies who were also waiting for the same bus. They had heavy make up on their faces and the were chatting continuously about a movie they had watched. What really got her attention is the conversation was the amount of money that was mentioned. Conversation between both ladies. "Do you think it's good to be a surrogate?" " It's not bad, but I can't do it. I mean why would I finish suffering and then give my baby to someone else". The other lady said. " To me I believe it's not a bad thing. It helps put smile on other people's face , it gives them a shot at being parents too, it gives them the family they never thought of having and then I I hear that they get paid handsomely". The first lady added. " Yeah, I heard that too, even a distant cousin of mine became a surrogate for a wealthy family outside town and she got $600000 as an advance payment and she will still get $600000 after she delivered the baby". The second lady said. " And some good people still pays monthly for feeding and clothing or even get you an apartment". " Yeah, that's true and it's nice but I'm too emotional to do such a thing. What if I refuse to hand over the baby when I finally gives birth " They both laughed at the comment. When the bus arrived they both stopped their discussion and got into the bus . I was also waiting for the same bus too so I got on too but that was the end if the surrogate discussion they had . Surrogate! Surrogate!! Surrogate!!! Wow "Maybe this is the answer to my prayers". I thought to myself as I immediately brought out my phone to find out more about this surrogate of a thing . After reading and understanding everything about surrogacy, I found myself an agency and I immediately registered to be a surrogate. When I got home I found Hailey laying down on the couch, she was looking really weak. Weakness was written all over her face, her usual beautiful smile was no where to be found and she was sweating profusely even with the little air conditioner that was in the living room. With just one look on her face you would know that she is beginning to have that constant headache that she always complains of, now with the look of things I was even more determined to go through with the surrogacy. Every reservation I had before now all disappeared at the sight of Her. I had never thought I would see her this weak in this life time. "Lord, I just want my lovely and jovial little sister back".
