7 Years Blindness - S01 E02

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 2

… On my way out, a boy of about six years old rushed out and hugged me. “Good morning mum. You’re looking so beautiful. Daddy said we will meet you at aunty Francis wedding later,” he said. He asked me how I was feeling since I complained of headache before going to bed the previous night. I told him I felt better. He hugged me and waved goodbye.

I drove straight to the church and, luckily, I saw my siblings and parents waiting outside the church. They were all excited to see me. “Sade, how are you? What about your husband and the boys?” My mother asked. “They are fine. But mummy please when did I get married?” I asked.

“What sort of stupid question are you asking me Sade? You have been married to Wale for seven years and you people love each other so much,” she re-vealed. “The truth mummy is that I woke up this morning and realised that I don’t remember anybody in that house,” I explained. My mother told me I was probably sick with fever. She promised that we would talk later in the day when the wedding was over.

I met my best friend, Helen, at the wedding and many other friends as well. At a point, I called Helen and asked her when I got married and if I truly have three children. She affirmed. “Helen, I don’t remember anything about marrying Wale much less having three children with him.

What about Sylvester my love?” I enquired. “Sade, Sylvester was so devastated that you left him for another man.

However, he got married about a year after you were

married to Wale,” she revealed. She asked me what the

matter was. I told her I was very convinced that Wale used

charms on me because I don’t recollect marrying him.

I asked Helen how I met Wale and she said that I did not

tell her. All I said was that, “I have met the man of my

dreams.”

After the whole event was over, my mother told me she

was tired. She, however, promised that we would see

before the end of the week. So, I went home with Wale and

the boys but I noticed that Wale was a little tensed.
