He wanted to watch me for another 24 hours and I could leave the following day…he advised me to continue resting, even after leaving the hospital and that I should not worry if I experienced cramps, irregular bleeding and spotting for a couple of weeks and emotional reactions as these were part of normal recovery after the procedure.
I didn’t say anything but I cried…I cried a lot. At a point, Captain cried with me…he was holding and petting me, promising that everything would be alright.
He let me know that he found the mole in his house…the person that was giving his wife information about us. It was the gardener and was already being dealt with appropriately.
Apparently; Captain’s wife used him to keep a tab on Captain’s activities and used to call him while she was abroad.
So Captain’s wife knew when our relationship started and must have thought it was just a fling but when it seemed to be getting serious, she decided to come back home and set things straight. It was also the gardener that told Captain’s wife I was there that night which made her show up.
Captain wanted to stay with me for the night but I begged him to let me be, as I needed to be by myself…I insisted, so he left and promised to be back in the morning. However, he let the maid stay…in case I needed anything. Not long after he left, I called my mum and sister to tell them I had missed them and wanted to hear their voices…they could tell something was wrong with me. Sister Grace asked if she could come see me the next day, I declined and promised to be home immediately after my exams. Listening to myself, I knew I sounded really weak but I had to talk to them…I needed to feel some real, unconditional love.
I cried for the most part of the night and I was in so much pain…the analgesic drug wore off quickly but the nurses said I couldn’t take more than the recommended dosage.
I could hear the maid snoring off on the other bed in the room.Out of having nothing to do, I turned the TV on and was browsing through channels…I saw a man preaching and the topic displayed on the screen caught my attention “God’s unconditional and encompassing love”. The text wasEphesians 3:18 (I can never forget it “And I pray that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to comprehend the length and width and height and depth of His love”). There was a Bible under the pillow at the hospital, I reached for it and followed along.
