Episode 16
I went back home and was just thinking about everything from the beginning till where i found myself. I put a call through to my mum on getting home
Me: Hello Mum,
Mum: How are you oko mi
Me: Mum, what did you discussed with Biola
Mum: i did what a normal mother should do to safe the family from embarrassment.
“Give me that phone” was the voice i heard in the background
Dad: you see Snakie, we have been talking to you all this while and its like you don’t want to listen, you still want to cause embarrassment to this famil. Or what else do you want us to do for you? Moreover, we were not the one that forced her into your life..You saw her yourself and asked her out, so what’s your problem for crying out loud? Your introduction is next weekend and we are still at this stage please grow up for once and accept your responsibility
Me: But dad…
Dad: but what? Don’t but me abeg, we have taken our decision, and that’s final… We have spoken to Biola and she has given us her commitment not to have anything to do with you again and that is how its going to be… So, brace up yourself for your marital life… Good day my boy…..
(He hanged up the phone on me)
What other option do i have now? Biola switched off already and my parents are still adamant, i was still in the room soliloquizing when Mary opened the door on me and went down on her knees crying.
Mary: Please am very sorry Snakie, please forgive me baby..i know i made mistakes playing games with you and trying to force myself on you but it wasn’t intentional baby…please am very sorry. I would have love to ab0rt this myself but have be warned severally not to attempt ab0rtion in my life cos it might lead to my death…please put me in the shoes of your younger sister.
I know sometimes, we don’t get what we plan for in life but one thing i know is that God knows all our journey in life and we being at this stage is not our making but how God wants it. Please baby, i know what you are going through is not easy but i will be ready to do anything you want to make you happy….all i want is for you to give me a little chance that i can also be the best you want in a lady….Please am very sorry for all the troubles have caused you
Me: can i ask you a question?
Mary: Yes dear…
Me: What exactly do you want from me…why did you come into my life to ruin everything I have been building?
Mary: Sincerely, it wasn’t intentional..i never believe it will come out this way, i was only playing games and enjoying the game, never believe i will find myself in this situation but here i am now..and as regards what i want from you? All my prayer is for you to give me the chance to convince you..please am very sorry for all my troubles baby…..
Me: okay..have heard you
Mary: You’ve heard me?
Me: abi, what else do you want me
Mary: Okay…….
I left her in the room and stepped out for fresh air, i came back later in the night and Mary was on bed with her transparent night wear..i hissed and went to the other room.
It was on Monday evening and i made my way to Biola’s office, i asked of her and i was told she already started her annual leave, i went straight to their street and waited there as I couldn’t enter their house. I saw a small boy by the next compound and asked him to help me go into their house and asked of her, that was after tipping the boy with N200. The boy came back and told me there was nobody at home.
I waited till around 10pm and there was nobody like Biola coming home. I headed straight to my house..on getting home, Mary was already on bed uncl@d. I was so hungry that i didn’t have energy to prepare anything and had to settle for Mary’s left over in the kitchen…(first time I will be eating her food)
I went back inside, put off my cloth and went straight to the bathroom… My thought was that Mary was already asleep so i was walking uncl@d in the room too picking one or two things together, but my eyes didn’t stop looking at her on the bed and this send down some stimulus to my D!ckson even though i tried to take my mind off it but my ‘thing’ was thinking of something else probably because its been a while.
I headed to the bathroom, soap was on my face when i felt a hand on my body. I couldn’t help but relax myself as i was enjoying it, moreover its been a long time i had something like that.
As if she was waiting for my response as i moved my hand to her shoulder and robbing her hair….before i knew what was happening, we have already spent up to 20mins at the bathroom having fun.
Mary: Am very sorry baby…please just give me the chance
Me: No problem…its okay, am sorry for the emotional trauma too
Mary: Am i forgiven now
Me: Sort of but you didn’t offend me before now
Mary: I did and i wish i can get to see Biola too to apologize to her for all my misdeed
Me: there’s no need for that abeg..dont worry yourself abeg..
Mary: So, whats the plan for Saturday
Me: Nothing……
Mary: Well, i will be going home on Friday to prepare with my family against your coming on Saturday
Me: No problem, give me your account number lemme transfer 200k to it for preparation
Mary: Thanks so much dear…i love you so much baby…
Me: No Problem
We went for another two rounds before morning and I already assume that I had no option than to marry Mary compulsorily.
Mary was the first to wake up the following morning and the smile on her face said it all. She was just all over me, who will blame her, I guess any other lady will do more than that if they were in her shoes.
Saturday was here and everything was going according to plan. I went to my parents’ house and we moved from there to my in-law’s house around 10am. It was a full merriment and happiness was in the air even though deep down me, the marriage was on cos I had no option and I tried my best to convince my parents but they wouldn’t listen and I believed the major reason was because they have been pestering my life to get married for the past two years which have been dribbling them that it was not yet time. Mary provided them with good opportunity to tie down my hand with them and forced my hand into Marriage.
Did I even say force my hand? Hell no, I was the one that brought all the calamity into my life and Mary also used the opportunity. Only that its looked like a plan work between my parents and Mary as if they planted her into my life the first day I set my eyes on her.
We finished our Marriage as early as 5pm and left my inlaw’s house with my wife to my own house, its not even so glaring in my house that I was doing anything that day. My mum and some of Mary’s friends escorted her home. And by the time it was getting to around 6pm, people started leaving one after the other and even my mum said she wont be sleeping over as she couldn’t leave my dad alone at home. Only that she might want to leave late.
My mum decided to leave around 6pm and I volunteered to drop her at home, Mary wanted to follow us but she discouraged her saying she needed to relax.
I was driving back home from my parents’ house when my phone started ringing with unknown number
Me: Hello……good evening
Voice: Good Evening…….Congratulations oooo oko iyawo
Me: Thanks very much
Voice: A gbohun iya, a gbohun omo oooo
Me: Amin……(I quickly recognized the voice)
Me: Biola…..Biola, why did you do this to me Biola
She cut the call on me and I could feel it from the background that it was as if she was crying or something as it shows in her voice.
