dedicated to all my whatsapp friends

DANIEL.

I don’t know what I have gotten

myself into, I really don’t know why

everything has turned out to be like

this? Why’s Nora this way? Why’s she

treating me like this? Oh God! At least,

you know all things, I’m too sure that

you’ve known all this would happen

from the scratch, why did you take

Gloria away from me! Why!

At least if I had known everything

would turn out this way, would hsve

adopted celibacy. I would! Why did she

sleep in another room? There’s no

honeymoon, nothing, just nothing! I

repeat, nothing!

What will I do? Will this marriage

continue this way, lord? Will it?

NORA.

Daniel, only God knows what else that

I have done to him. I know I ought not

to hug Alex, but, he hugged another lady

too now. Daniel actually did! Why am I

facing the music now? Why?

I was afraid of sleeping beside him

the night of our wedding, what if he

woke up and sent me out of the room?

Honestly, I can’t just comprehend this.

Why is he not talking to me? He’s been

taciturn as if we’ve been in this issue for

years. This is his car following mine, I

knw he didn’t eat that food, he didn’t

ask me why I couldn’t sleep beside him,

Daniel, why?

“Surprise!” Tonia grinned as she

sighted Nora.

Nora was shocked. She took a close

look before he beam turned to a sudden

grin and rushed toward Tonia. “Sister

Tonia.” She hugged her tight with smiles

all over her face.

“How are you dear?” Tonia grinned as

she pulled her cheeks.

“I’m doing good, ma.” She continued

grinning.

“I’m sure you’re good. I’m sure my

brother would have given you a nice

treat enough for you to forget your

name?”

Her grin turned to a faint smile and

she nodded. “You never told me you’d

come here for church service, Sis.”

“Don’t mind us. I even came with Mum

and Daniel’s younger brother.” She said.

“Really?” Nora smiled. “Where’s

Mum?” She enquired.

“She’s inside the auditorium, just to

surprise you, dear.” She pulled her

cheeks again.

“Thanks so much sister.” Nora said.

“But where’s your husband? Why

didn’t you two come together in the

same car?”

“Urgh… your brother?” Nora chuckled.

“He said would come in his own car,

don’t mind him.” She smiled.

“Hmmn… Alright, he shouldn’t come

late because the other couple that wants

to have their thanksgiving are already in

church and the service starts soon.”

Tonia said.

Nora nodded and smiled. “Alright,

would call him.” She said.

“Good. Come inside soon.” Tonia

tapped her shoulder and walked inside

the church.

As soon as she walked inside, Nora

looked around why is he not yet here?

She wondered and sighed.

**

Daniel parked his car at the front of

the Church and came down. He adjusted

his blazer and pressed his lips together.

His eyes caught that of Nora who had

been waiting for him out there for some

minutes. He had gone to get something

to eat.

One thing he really hated was playing

wih his stomach. He preffered eating to

any other thing apart from his life. He

would always say when there’s no food,

there’s no life.

Why did he take his eyes off now? He

doesn’t want to see me right? Nora had

thought as she motioned inside the

church. She just neglected me, she’s

leaving angrily. Daniel heaved a sigh

before he walked inside the Church too.

**

4pm.

Daniel was glad everything went well

in Church. The thoughts had been a

burden to him earlier, brewing if the

Church wouldn’t know of the problem

he had gotten himself into.

He had stepped out of the room and

met another served food on the dining

set. He just stared at it and didn’t know

if it’d be a problem once eaten. He didn’t

want what would crush his marriage

early, but this problem was a great

factor that could ruin his marriage.

As he thudded down the sofa in the

living room and tuned the television set,

his phone buzzed and he reached for it.

“Mart man, how far now?” He said with

a smile.

“Really? King’s Place? On my way.” He

grinned as he sprung up to his feet.

Nora rushed out of the room. She just

remembered that she had to see a

movie by 4pm. She halted as she saw

Daniel and looked as if she just saw a

ghost, surprised and shocked.

Daniel didn’t even look at her before

he rushed to the room to make a

change of clothing and rushed to meet

his friend- Martins at King’s Place.
