Love with bitter tear - Season 1 - Episode 4

Gloria: “Mum is right girlfriend,
you need to get married, and
you will be twenty-eight years
this year remember? Time and
tide waits for no one, you are
in your prime now but will not
remain so forever”

Opha: “I have a gist for you
dear, forget the issue of
marriage, it’s not a topic I like
to waste my time on” she said
dismissively.

Gloria: “Yes madam? Let me
hear this gist that is making
you so excited”

Opha: “Now you are talking.

But before then, I want to feel
your lips on mine again, I have
missed you so much baby.

Abandoning me like that for
some man is just uncool” she
said moving towards her
seductively.

Gloria: “Oh yeah! I have missed
you too, you just won’t
imagine how much I have
missed your soft body” she
replied breathing heavily,
staring straight into her eyes.

She went closer to her and as
soon as their lips touched they
both m0aned in unison. Their
kiss deepened as Opha
unbuttoned her shirt to caress
one of her boobs.

An hour later after they had
made love, Gloria was still
eager to know what the gist
she wanted to tell her was.

Gloria: “Babe so what were you
talking about earlier? You said
there was something you
wanted to tell me?” she said
trying to recompose herself
after the heated lovemaking.

Opha: “Guess?”

Gloria: “I cannot guess, its
either you tell me now or I
carry my bag and go home. I
have a husband to attend to
remember?”

Opha: “You just keep
reminding me of how married
you are. Can your husband
make you feel the way I do?

Can he sU-Ck you in places I do?”
she asked jealously.

Gloria: “He is trying. Okay I am
sorry, you know getting
married was not something I
wanted to do, I was pushed
into it by my family”

Opha: “Well it’s okay, as long as
we can continue doing this
then I am okay by it. No one
can break our ten years
relationship in just a day”

Gloria: “Yeah sure. Now that is
what I am talking about. So tell
me what you wanna, I am
dying of curiosity here”

Opha: “I met one of my pupil’s
dad today and you won’t
imagine how handsome and
manly he looked in that suit of
his” she said smiling
mischievously

Gloria: “Hmmmmmmm…”

Opha: “Why are you sighing?

Don’t tell me you are getting
jealous?”

Gloria: “I am sighing because
he is married. You are not
heading in the right direction
my dear”

Opha: “Now she is about to
counsel me on what and what
nots. Besides I did not say I am
in love with him, you know
how I feel about love right?”

Gloria: “Just be careful so you
don’t end up breaking a home
and besides this is the first
time you will ever notice a
man in this life. What made
him so special?

Opha: “The way his lips curved
seductively when he spoke to
me. His composure and most
especially the sadness in his
eyes made me want to put his
head in my b---m and tell him
it’s alright. His marriage is
crumbling too. I feel sorry for
him” she finished sadly.

Gloria: “He must really be
going through one hell of an
ish. It’s okay then, as long as he
will not come in between us,
our love just like my husband
did not, then I am cool”

Opha: “I haven’t said I consider
him a potential anything. This
one you are sounding like
someone is sweeping me off
my feet” she eyed her friend,
went closer to her and bit her
lips mildly. “I love you babez,
only you” she said with a voice
husky with renewed desire.

Gloria: “Okay I have to go now!

My husband must be on his
way home” she said springing
up to her feet like a person
dipped boiling ring in her anus
all of a sudden.

Opha: “Easy Glo, I understand
you don’t want to go another
round, I will see you off”


##########

In his office, he kept thinking
and fantasizing about his son’s
teacher. The way she pouted
her lips when she was trying to
make him open up to her. The
way her skirt skidded to her
laps when she crossed her legs,
the way she welcomed him
and made him feel like he was
something special, he just felt
like opening his soul to her. He
did not know when the door to
his office opened and his wife
stepped in.

Rebecca: “Richard…Richard” she
repeated loudly, thinking he
was asleep.

Richard jerked out of his
reverie.

Richard: “Yes? Don’t you know
how to knock before entering a
person’s office?”

Rebecca: “I am sorry but I
actually did knock, you did not
answer me”

Richard: “What do you want by
the way?”

Rebecca: “I have an
appointment with my doctor
tomorrow morning and he has
asked that I come along with
you”

Richard: “I have work to do so
you can go on your own” he
looked down on a pile of
paperwork on his desk and
pretended to be reading them.

Rebecca: “But this has to do
with the baby” she started
sulking.

Richard: “I told you I have
work to do, what part of that
do you not understand?” he
snapped.

Rebecca: “I already took
permission from the M.D on
behalf of the two of us and he
understands. But if you don’t
want to, who am I to force
you? Just know it’s not for me
but for the baby” she said
holding her midsection with
both of her hands. “If not for
my sake but for the sake of our
children, can you forgive me
please? Is there anything you
want me to do? Say it and it
will be done but please I really
can’t do this on my own
anymore. I need you” she said
as tears filled her eyes

Richard: “I cannot go with you,
I don’t even recognize that
thing as my baby, so whatever
has to do with it, do it on your
own and don’t involve me. Do
you get it?”

Rebecca: “I really feel sorry for
you Richie, you will live to
regret this utterance you just
made” she cursed under her
breath and stormed out of his
office. He lifted his head slowly
from his paperwork, looked at
her retreating figure and shook
his head.

Richard: “It’s you who has just
started regretting for being so
bitchy all these while. We are
just starting, in fact I am yet to
start” he thought and his mind
drifted to Opha’s almost perfect
body. He remembered how
delicate her features were:
silky smooth skin that was
inviting him for a gentle caress.
She had almond shaped eyes
with a deep dimple adorning
each of her cheeks when she
smiled. Thinking of her made
him happy and at ease with
himself. He knew he wanted to
have another chat with her so
he brought out the card she
had given him the previous
day and admired its contents.
He saved the number on the
card as Miss Supple and smiled
at his creativity.

With a heavy heart, she went
straight to the doctor’s office
on confirming her appointment
with the receptionist the next
day. Dr. Wilson was in his office
waiting since he had a class
that noon, he was a resident
doctor in his early thirties.

Rebecca: “Good afternoon
doctor” she greeted as she
took her seat opposite the
doctor on the book-filled table.

Dr. Wilson: “Good afternoon to
you too, how are you feeling
today?” he replied with a
broad smile on his handsome
chiseled face.

Rebecca: “I am fine thank you”

Dr. Wilson: “But where is your
husband? I specifically told you
to come along with him, he
needs to be here too” he was
displeased.

Rebeca: “He got too engaged in
his work so was not able to
make it down here. But hope
there is no problem doctor?”

Dr. Wilson: “Well there is one
whinny tinny bit of problem
and that is why I need to talk
to your husband and not you”

Rebecca: “What is the problem
doctor? “She asked sitting up
nervously.

Dr. Wilson: “Well it’s your
husband I need to talk to,
maybe we will have to
reschedule this appointment
till he is less engaged in his
work?”

Rebecca: “No! Tell me
whatever it is, I can bear it.

Does it have anything to do
with my baby?”

Dr. Wilson: “I already told you,
except your husband is here I
won’t divulge any information
to you madam” he said
impatiently checking his time
over and over again.

Rebecca: “Okay how about
this? My husband refused to
come not that he is busy”

Dr. Wilson: “But why if I may
ask?”

Rebecca: “We are not in good
terms. We haven’t been a
couple for some time now”

Dr. Wilson: “Oh! I am sorry
about that ma’am, I had no
idea” he said apologetically.

Rebecca: “It’s okay. So can you
tell me now please?”

He thought for some seconds.

Dr. Wilson: “Okay then. How
was your last pregnancy? Did
you develop any complications
like heart disorders?”

Rebecca: “Yes, I was diagnosed
with Peripartum
Cardiomyopathy but it was
neutralized after I gave birth to
my son. That is why I stayed
off getting pregnant for so
many years”

Dr. Wilson: “Yeah! And now, I
just found out that the
condition has returned only
that it’s now worse than
before”

Rebecca: “What do you mean
by that?”

Dr. Wilson: “You might lose
your life in this pregnancy.

From now on you have to
thread carefully, avoid
anything that will give you
emotional pain so your heart
don’t get weakened more. If
you lose your life before you
are due for delivery, then it will
be difficult to save your baby
too”

Rebecca: “Are you insinuating
that I’d lose my life?”

Dr. Wilson: “I haven’t said that
yet but it’s likely. Just make
sure you do as I said and make
sure you tell your husband
about this. Your survival might
be dependent on him. I am
already late for my class, come
for regular checkup. At least
twice a week will do. Book an
appointment with the
receptionist” He said rose from
his seat and fetched his lab
coat from where it hung on the
wall.


Rebecca: “Okay doctor. I will do
as you said. Thank you very
much” she replied weakly as
she stood up, shook the
doctor’s outstretched hands
and headed for the door.

Dr. Wilson: “Make sure you tell
your husband, this might help
restore your marriage” he
called after her but she was
long gone and out of earshot.

As she drove home that day,
she kept debating within her
whether to tell him or not . “I
don’t want his sympathy, I
don’t want him to start loving
me again out of sympathy. But
what do I do? Should I tell him
this or keep it to myself so no
one gets bothered
unnecessarily? I am really at a
loss here…”
