Married Single - Season 1 - Episode 31

” you are welcome boi, you are more than a friend to me and now that you are going through a rough patch in life, you need me the most” she held my shoulders leaning her head on me.
” I know but, you know what ? I have a great feeling about all this. I can assure you my mourning times are over as I will try to live an optimistic life. It’s just me and my God now” I raised my hand and Linda laughed.
” well, what about me?” She made a face and I hugged her back.
” you my good friend is always at heart” I shouted making us both laugh.
” now lets get me some things for the house.” I announced standing up.
“You seriously telling me you have the money to get yourself all the items you need in one day?” She asked surprised.
” well, let’s just say I made myself quite some money in the period I told you I was trying to change the world by crooking men” I told her as she made a surprise face.
” come on let’s go it’s past 15 already if we delay I won’t have a bed to sleep on tonight” I led her outside.

We went to carnival and I managed to get myself a bed, a shoe rack, a simple wardrobe. We later moved to Game stores within Manda Hill where I got a small stove, some plates and pots and some groceries for a start.
I didn’t want to take anything from Chris’ s house so I made sure I only left with my clothings. For me it was going to be a clean start.

We booked an open van to take the items from Game stores home to await Carnival deliver the ones I bought there.
By the time it was night, I had my small home set. Linda stayed with me for the night during which I filled her in on Lucas and the other things I had done before.

As always she encouraged me with the word of God and helped me pray for a better start over.

The court session was to start on a Monday and I now had two days to it. I took a bath that morning and planned on going to the saloon.
One of the things I thought I had to maintain in my single life was my looks. Even if i had no intention of hooking up with anyone any time soon, I had decided to look my best and enjoy my life.

” oh my God I cannot wait for that woman to finally be divorced so that i can claim my right place in that house” I heard Mwelwa’s voice behind me.

Two women had just walked into the saloon and I immediately recognised her voice.
I didn’t turn my head to look at them as the hair dresser plaited my hair. I decided to keep quite and listen to what the lady had to say.
” am happy for you mwandi, some women kuwayawayafye!” The friend responded and they both laughed.
” yeah since she couldn’t bare him kids i knew I could use that to my advantage. Giving birth to my baby brought me some lucky you know. Now am the woman of the house and I won’t sit back to let her come back. Let her go wherever she wants but not near my Chris” she said proudly I even felt like laughing.

” your Chris indeed” I thought to myself.
Surprised how God can ease the pain of everything when you surrender and give it all to him. If it was any other time I could have felt bad and probably wanting to answer back and tell her a piece of my mind. But now I didn’t dare. I felt at peace despite everything.

In fact I felt pity for both of them. They really derseved each other and I could hear the rest of the discussion. From it I was able to ascertain there was some questions about who the real father to that child was. But it wasn’t in my place to worry.

After I was done I slowly stood up head held high as other ladies complemented my looks. I smiled and said thank you.
