Black marriage - Season 1 - Episode 46

“Andy Williams” he said immediately he picked up. “What… Are you sure ma’am…? You are sure you are not making a mistake?”
Tunji looked anxiously at Andy, wondering what all the fuss was about.
Andy was looking stupefied.

“Where exactly ma’am” Andy asked, frowned and then nodded distractedly. “I would be there as fast as I can”.
“What was that about?” Tunji asked.
“The caller said she just saw Jessica. The place seems odd though”
“Where”
“A cemetery”
“What?” Tunji exclaimed. “I am sure it is false”

“What if it is correct? I am not taking the chance.” Andy picked up his car keys and started walking out.
“Well, wait for me man”
Jessica sat by the graveyard of her parents. It had been a really terrifying week for her and all she had been able to do was cry.

Everywhere she went, she was conscious of people staring at her. Even when they were not really staring at her or when it was obvious that their stare was a result of her beauty, she still did not accept it. Her reputation had been destroyed, her life had just been ruined and it was all her fault. She should never had gotten married for money. It was the most stupid mistake she ever made in her entire life. She had wanted to talk about the contract with Andy but she hadn’t wanted to shatter what they had just started experiencing.


Missing Andy was much more painful than she thought, she had lost her appetite completely and she needed no one to tell her that she had lost weight. She felt lighter and the breeze seemed stronger than usual. It was as though it would sweep her off her feet.
As she sat at the tomb at the cemetery, she shivered as she tried to hold back her tears. She had always hated burial grounds and being there, where several tombs lay, she was terrified but she could not leave. Ever since her parents had been buried, she hadn’t had the courage to visit their tomb, not to mention her brother’s tomb. She did not think she would be able to visit her brother’s tomb, it was just too depressing. She dropped one bouquet of flower on her dad’s tomb and dropped the other on her mum’s tomb. The tears that she held at bay suddenly started rolling down her cheeks. She had cried and cried all week and now, she was surprised that she still had water left in her eyes.
