No Choice But to Live With Him
??Immaculate??
?Episode 74?
?Nicky?
?~Next day~?
I was in my hospital room alone, its early and I couldn’t even sleep throughout last night.
I kept thinking of what made me marry Alfredo. I would have married Abner instead…
“Nicky forget all about Abner… He’s all in the past now, focus on the future” my head told me and all it said were true. Abner is my past and I should forget him.
Just then the door opened and I thought it might be my mum or my sister but it was Alfred?
He entered and locked the door.
“Why are you locking the door?” I yelled at him.
“Calm down,I’m not here to hurt you”
“Leave me alone…. Leave me alone. I don’t wanna see you and you won’t discourage me from filing the divorce. I’m gonna divorce you know matter what”
He walked towards me and sat on the bed facing me…
“Nicky, I know what I did was wrong. I know I shouldn’t have sided Viviana without even letting you speak.
I’m so sorry for the way I spoke to you. I’m sincerely sorry”
“Your apologizes ain’t needed. I don’t need it. I’m still gonna divorce you no matter what.
I want to live a new life and maybe continue schooling, get a job and be a new different Nicky Joy Jerkin’s….
I’ll really love to answer my fathers name again and not bear the Dick in yours”
“Nicky, it’s really not good for you to make decisions like this in your condition… Well do you really do want the divorce?”
“I want it…. I really want it. And I won’t regret it in the future. I won’t”
“Nicky don’t you think you’re taking all this too far…. Don’t you think you’re making decisions without even reasoning it”
“Alfredo Dickson I’m not crazy. I want the divorce and I’ll do it. I don’t even think you’re gonna change cos you apologized about what you did just that night but the next day you still sided her and even neglected me like I was your puppet or something. I’m not a fool Alfred, I’m not”
“Well I give up. Since you don’t wanna listen to me, since you’re proving really stubborn…. Its fine.
You can file the divorce, but Nicky one day you’ll regret it. I know you will.
Congratulations to your new life” he said and left the room but not after opening the door and slamming it hard.
“I won’t regret it. I know I won’t”
?Alfred?
I entered my car and drove out of the hospital. I know I don’t mean anything I said to her about filing the divorce.
Tears kept dropping from eyes. She’s the best choice that I’ve ever made in my life.
I don’t think there’s a woman out there like her. She’s my best decision and there’s know girl out there who has all her qualities.
Our marriage was a blessing and even if I have a second life on earth,I’ll still find her and marry her. I love her and what I feel for her is more than love… Its an obsession and now she wants a divorce.
Our marriage is not even a year old yet but she still wants a divorce…. I don’t think I’ll he able to cope without her, I might end up being the old Alfredo people used to know and I think I’m better that way… People are really taking me for granted and I don’t like that.
I know she has the right to file the divorce but I don’t think she should do it so soon. What I did was wrong and not acceptable in the ethics of marriage and I sincerely apologize. But she wanting a divorce is wrong.
I think we should both go to a chancellor or marriage therapist of it even exists. That should be the best cos I definitely don’t want to lose Nicky… Not now,not in the future.
?Abner?
? Martyr tell the Smithsonian’s that I’m not in the country now
? But sir you are, do you think I should lie to them?
? Just deliver my message that way. My family is in some kind of crises and I don’t want any thing that would take my attention from what my family is going through.
? Okay Sir, I’ll deliver your message.
? Good… Take care of your self okay!
? I will….
…………………
I dropped my phone on the chair and took a sip from the abandoned grape juice that was on my table.
My new apartment had been completed and I’ll be moving into it soon so I’m in my parents house now.
“Maybe I should just go and visit Nicky I haven’t spoken to her since she was admitted in there and maybe I should go and see her now”
I stood up and wore a more better outfit and left.
†Life saver hospital†?
I got the hospital and knocked on the door to Nicky’s room hoping she’s alone…
The door opened and I saw Sarah standing in front of me with her usual smile.
I smiled back and she ushered me in.
“Hi Abner” Nicky said to me. I wasn’t expecting her to even speak to me. Maybe she’s only mad at Alfredo.
“Hi Nicky, how are you doing?”
“Not so well, pls sit” she said and I sat on the bed so close to her.
“How are you feeling now?”
“I’m not fine… Anyways how are you?”
“I’m good. Thank God you’re back to your feet now. So when are you going to be discharged?”
“Tomorrow”
“Then you’re coming home?”
“I’m going to my parents house. We’ve both agreed to file the divorce”
“Really? You mean Alfredo agreed to it?”
“Yes he did!”
“Why would Alfredo agree to that?”
“He had no choice. Besides his opinions doesn’t count. I’m still gonna divorce him anyways”
“Why? He isn’t the cause of the child’s death. What wrong did he do?”
“A lot Abner… A whole lot…. Wait just imagine you’re me and he brought a stranger home and all of a sudden he started siding her even when you’re completely not at fault…
I wasn’t the one to be blamed but Viviana, yet he kept siding her even when I did nothing wrong”
“Alfredo can be really compassionate at times….”
“Indeed” she said mockingly.
“But that was when he didn’t know Amber was Viviana”
“I don’t understand”
“Didn’t he tell you?” I asked.
“He told me nothing…”
“Wait you mean Amber is still alive and in fact she’s Viviana?” Sarah asked after being silent throughout our whole conversation.
“Yes she is… She had surgeries that changed her appearance”
“Oh my God! So we have been living with her all this while?” She asked surprisingly.
“When did Alfredo knew?”
“Just the day you got admitted to the hospital… he saw a tattoo on her back and it was the same one Amber had and it was exactly at the same spot”
“I’ll make sure she pays for the death of my child, even if that’s the last thing I do on earth” she said and I and Sarah looked at her surprisingly.
