Story: Compulsory Marriage - Season 1 - Episode 13

Mary was right there on her own before you talk to her or was she the 1st to approach you? I doubt when she’s not a slut…you approached her and decided to allow her stay in your house under the same roof with your fiancée and fooled the poor girl together abi……………….she’s pregnant now, so what do you want to do? Nkan to mo je lo yo e..have u ever met her parent or spoken to them?…what am I even saying self, how would you have met her parent

Me: have not met them……..Told her that I will be taking her to hospital tomorrow to confirm her pregnancy claim

Mum: and what if the result is positive what will u do? Am sure abortion is not an option so don’t even think of it

Me: No…just to ascertain that she’s saying the truth…moreover I cant marry her…I don’t even know anything about her or her family

Mum: so u didn’t think of that before sleeping with her……….dont worry but if I may ask, in the last one month that you have been together, do u notice any bad character about her

Me: Sincerely none..she’s good on her own part but I cant just leave Biola for her…Biola is who I love

Mum: since Biola is the one you truly love, you shouldn’t have venture into this in the 1st place..you shouldn’t have allow the thing under ur trouser control your brain…..

Me: “Crying”………….No need to cry oko mi, I understand how you feel..this is all your mistake and I believe God will guide us through….I will take her to the hospital tomorrow while you go to work but lemme call biola to talk her her…o ku ti sowa deyan buruku lodo omo yen ati awon ebi e bayi……..

“Dialing Biola’s number”



Me: Don’t worry yourself mum, I will take her there myself..have called in sick already at work for 3days and my Boss consented..so I have enough time

Mum: Ohk oko mi….Biola is not picking my calls..just don’t worry yourself..i know your concern and I can assure you everytyn will be settled…..God will guide us tru. Please come and eat, your food is on the table

Me: Am not eating mum……

Mum: Please now oko mi…..lemme go and bring it for you if you don’t want to come to the dinning.

“she stepped out, I was a bit relieved pouring my mind out atleast to someone who was ready to listen to me…she came back with the food, I eat and find my way to the bird, didn’t know when sleep came over, all I noticed when I woke up around 5am was a lady sleeping beside me on the bed…I look at her as if I should strangle her to death”.

I woke her up around after seven in the morning to go dress up for hospital for a test….i don’t have a personal physician so I had to settle down for a private hospital in my area but not too close to my house..

We got to the hospital, met the Dr on duty and explained why we were in the hospital to him…he said they will need to carry out a blood test as that’s always more accurate than urine test…there’s another small compartment like a room in the Dr’s office and I guess that was for emergency cases cos that was where he took her to…they didn’t spend up to 10mins there and came back…he called a nurse and directed us to go to the lab…the nurse collected her blood sample and asked us to wait outside at the reception..

The Dr called us in after more than an hour, gave us the result and I was so surprised when he congratulated us that my fiancée is almost more than three weeks gone..i was devastated.

I stormed out of the office and she ran to meet me inside the car..i drove home and went straight to the bedroom..My mum came to meet me immediately
