Read Story: SEASON 6 EPISODE 6
I quickly took them up and tore it to get the
content inside. the
first envelop I took refused to open through
the seal and I tore it
roughly in anger…………I opened the envelop
and it wasn’t my
expectation, a name bisodun jeremiah was
written at the top
and the labeled was the ‘pregnancy test’ it
shown in the test
result that she was 11weeks pregnant……….I
wanted to laugh
and stand to raise a praising alert before I
remembered that
there is still another envelope on the table
which I’m yet to
know its what about, I was d--n shocked
when I saw the
content of this first letter in the first place and
also happy at the
same time……………… One side of me was
happy but the
remaining side was sad which doesn’t allow
the happiness to
circulate……I dropped that one and picked up
the other one, I
tore it like I did to the first one and I brought
out the content
inside, I opened it expecting it to be my own
HIV test which is
nothing to doubt about rather than my HIV
positive result, but to
my surprise, I met the same name I saw at
the other one and
glanced down the middle of the content, while
my eyes reaches
where the topic of this result lied, my eyes
mixed up with
different colors that can never be find on the
rainbow palette, I
saw something “HIV test” as the topic and I
saw something
positive below and not far to the write-up, it
wasn’t that much
clear to me and I seek for the doctor’s
clarification.@ positive
keh, who is HIV positive??????who is HIV
career?????, what is
happening to me..or am I dreaming??????
Please somebody
should wake me up,,,I couldn’t withstand all
these in the
dreamland again…..so quickly wake me up
from the bed please@
Me: please doctor, tell me what this means, it
doesn’t clear to
me atall……..
Doctor: but you can see in there a positive
HIV result and a
positive sign????????
Me: yes maam
Doctor: that means she is positive…..
Me: pregnancy positive or what???????is that
how it
happens?????? Is that how HIV get into
humans just like
that??????? Please tell me, I never see
anyone in my life
physically with HIV virus before, this will ever
be my first time,
Doctor: mr alabi, there is nothing we can do
than to make the
girl happy everytime, so that she won’t
choose to commit any
suicide…..
Me: doctor, that doesn’t concern me, whether
she commit or not,
but the most concerning matter to me now is
about the infant,
doctor please we must do something, this is
my life, this Is the
only thing I’m left with, this girl is carrying
my baby, nothing
must happen to my baby because I am
seriously in need of a
child. atleast if this will be the ending of life
to both we the
parent………….@hey wait, is this not the end
of the life, they said
bissme was HIV positive, how am I going to
be cleaned out of
this???????? Very sure I must also be in the
same status with
her…………what is going to happen??????
what am I going to do,
now she is pregnant! But the family will be in
HIV…..what is the
essence?@
Doctor: don’t worry, to that of the baby,
nothing will happen to it,
once she pays to all the prescription render
by us, nothing will
happens to it
Me: please what are you talking about maam
Doctor: make sure she is coming often and
often to the hospital
immediately she has been released, there is
something we
would be given to her that will prevent the
foetus from infected
by the virus….so don’t worry
Me: Really? Are you sure of this????
Doctor: very sure….
Me: thank you maam, I took the letter, stood
up, and wanted to
take my leave
Doctor: are you leaving?
Me: yes maa (weeping)
Doctor: but you haven’t know yet your own
status……..
Me: what else could it be? When my wife is
positive! who gave
her the belle rather than me???????? Please
keep the result with
you, because once I see it with me everyday,
it will prompt me
to commit suicide, just don’t bother to show
me atall
please…..(Walking off the table)
Doctor: but it will be better if you can wait
and hear me out……
Me: @did I need anybody to preach or
console an old man as I
am???? Please I don’t need lecture on HIV at
this moment atall@

be with you……..
