THE END
P.s What about Uzor you might be wondering?
Flashback to the day I got to his house after spending the night at Yemi’s, as I dusted and tried to tidy up his room, I opened his wardrobe to fold in some laundry when I stumble upon a file titled “Chioma”. Curiosity caught a grip of my fingers as I picked up the folder and decided to flip through. It turned out that Chioma actually filed for divorce and not Uzor as I was told and made away with some of Uzor’s money. That wasn’t the icebreaker, it turned out Uzor has a child with another girl during the time he divorced me and married Chioma. He didn’t tell Chioma, she got to find out on her own. I was uninformed about this new development.
I guess the lies never ends with him. I guess he wasn’t a changed man after all. As I indulged in my thought. His phone chimed with a notification. I never snoop but Uzor made it difficult to stay upright. I picked up the phone and found series of text messages between him and Chioma. He was begging her to return to him and they could work out their differences. He also stated in the text messages that he wasn’t interested in getting married to his baby mama.
“You weren’t meant to see that” He said as he walked into the room on crutches. He saw the file and phone in my hands and he could deduce what I was staring at.
I was transfixed and with my mouth agape, I stared at him.
“I can explain Sinach” he said
“Go on Uzor. Explain to me how you were taking advantage of me just before your bride returns”. I replied almost screaming and close to tears.
He started to say something but stopped talking. He put his head down, ashamed of his actions. I walked out of the room. The relationship that would exist between us now is strictly for Ada and nothing else. The extra help I rendered is over and I was done trying to see good in someone who was pure evil and selfish.
If Uzor didn’t show his spots would I have said yes to Yemi? My heart was ready to be married to Yemi, let’s say I had cold feet and needed a familiar territory before I plunge into a new terrain.
I ran out of the house and dialled Dera who was ecstatic by the news and was quick to give the ‘I told you so’ remarks.
