Black marriage - Season 1 - Episode 47

“Oh mum, why did you leave me so soon? Uhn?” she sat at the foot of her mum’s tomb and cried. “Why did you leave your Jessie? I need you so much mum” her hands shook as she held her hand to her mouth slightly, trying to stifle her sob but it was not working. “I am all alone mum. You all betrayed me. You and dad and brother left me all by myself; why did you not take me with you? Why?” She cried and could not control her tears anymore. She cried and cried until she had no strength left in her anymore. All her strength had vanished, coupled with the fact that she hadn’t been eating.

Jessica sagged against the tomb and gasped when she heard her name.
She stared at the tomb. “I am hallucinating mum, I am beginning to hear voices. Am I running mad.

“Drew” she whispered.

Andy kissed her eyes, kissing away her tears and running kisses all over her face before kissing her mouth, long and deep. He had watched her sleep, scanning every inch of her body to be sure she was OK.

“Oh my God Jess, I have almost gone crazy. Why did you do this to me honey” he kissed her. “Come on, you must eat something, you look so thin” Andy was searching for what to say.

“I have to go Andy” Jessica said immediately and jumped up instantly even though her body was a bit heavy.

Andy frowned deeply. “What does that mean?” He grabbed Jessica’s hand as she made for the door. “I would not let you leave Jess”.

Jessica closed her eyes briefly and swallowed. “I want a divorce, Andy”…..
