Married Single - Season 1 - Episode 29

It was like I was talking to a different person and I felt a bit bad with the possibility of me contributing to her being that way.
” Stella listen, that man was going to fail you at one point or another because that’s who he is. He’s a failure of a man and he didn’t even derseve you. Just forget about him and move on” i spoke up trying to make an eye contact with her but she kept her eyes on the clothes she was washing.

She went on telling me how she didn’t need me or any other man right at the moment. She threw it in my face I was married and I needed to go back to my family. At that moment the thoughts of my wife even irritated me cause She she was the one I was now blaming. If only she didn’t get pregnant I would have been free to be with my Stella.
” Mike you have come too?” Her mother asked me walking back from the market I could see the basket she was carrying in her hands.

” yes mom, I just came in and thought of coming to see you people. Surprised to see Stella here too” i pretended.
” that’s nice of you my son, so tell me how your wife and kids are? ” she smiled and I saw Stella look at me and quickly looked back at her clothes like telling me ” that’s a good reminder “.

As we engaged in greetings with her mother, Stella lifted the dishes and headed back inside without saying another word to me.
I waited trying to tell stories with her mother to buy myself time that I may see her but she didn’t come out.

I couldn’t ask to see her freely like before now that everyone knew I was a married man.
With a frustrated heart, I walked away and told her mother to say my good byes on my behalf. Planning on going back the following day and probably finding a better way of convincing her to get back with me.
I wasn’t even sure of the details of what happened to her marriage but I was determined to take her back. If it meant leaving my wife for her, I was ready to do so. She was free now and she was going to be mine again the way it should have always been, I thought to myself.

The following day I was occupied by the people that had come to greet me. My friends and some of the family members.
I kept looking at time wanting to ran to the next yard to go and try talking to Stella..
By the time everyone left it was past 14 hours and I went there playing a good neighbour.
I was greeted by her father who too made me sit and chat with him for some minutes.
” so dad, where is Stella? I saw he yesterday. When I came to greet mom” I asked her father.

” oh my son, your sister is going through a rough time and I don’t know how to help her. She left her husband and told us all the hell that man made her go through. She sued him for a divorce. She told me yesterday she will have to go and prepare herself cause the court hearing is next week Monday.” He explained
” oh so you saying she left already?” I asked him panicking.

” yes my son, she left this morning with the 09 Hours Wada Chovu bus” he smiled.
I couldn’t contain my anger as I walked back to my parent’s house. If not for the fact that I already told them I was to stay another day, I could have started off right that minute but I knew I had to wait till the following day.
