Mrs Kelly: do u think I am joking?

Kelly: oh u think I am the one joking right? what do u take me for? leave and never come back to my house

Mrs Kelly:, (surprised) do u think I am dreaming of coming into your life again?

Kelly: Glory be to God, now u can leave

Mrs Kelly ( went in to park her things) you will know today that I’m not joking

Kelly used the opportunity she went in to pick her things and took their son away, by the time she was done she didn’t see Kelly or her son, she felt so hurt because she planned going with him, She wanted to have a change of heart but of course she will not like Kelly to see her as a weakling so she left.

it was already late in the evening,it will not be possible to get to her parents house so she decided to spend the night at Mary’s house

she knocked at their door and Mary came out to know who was at the door, she was shocked to see Olivia with her luggage

Mary: what is it? where is Kelly? what are u doing with all these bag u are carrying?

Olivia: let me come in first, is a long story

Mary : Noo, talk to me here, I cannot allow u inside my home without explaining yourself, u just left here today and u didn’t mention anything about it

Olivia:(Shocked): Mary do u know that u are referring to me?

Mary: who are u? please tell me what happened before my husband comes out here

Olivia: can’t u see it that I left my marriage, I am done with that id-i-t

Mary: I don’t understand, where is your son? why are u leaving your Marriage?

Olivia: too much questions for one person, at least allow me in

Mary : God forb-id I harbour a married woman in my home, my husband will not even allow it, leave my home now or tell me what the problem is, I can go and talk to Kelly on your behalf

Olivia: Mary let me come inside

Mary: I can never do that,go back to your home or u go elsewhere, it is a no!, how can you be leaving your marriage without your son? did Kelly threaten your life? is he beating u? u cannot tell me that u are running for your life, u are running away because of the pride in you

when she saw that Mary cannot be convinced she took her luggage and checked the nearest hotel

the following day she left to her father’s house, her mother was surprised to see her with her luggage

mom: Olivia finally your stubbornness and your intelligence has taken u out of your Marriage, which mother leaves her son to run away from her Marriage, not that domestic violence is involved..

Olivia: mum I cannot tie my happiness on anybody’s neck, I am still beautiful and I will find a good man that will marry me, I will give birth to more children so I have nothing to

mom: I pity you, i am starting to imagine what u are going to tell your son in the future , u don’t have any tangible reason to leave your Marriage not to talk of leaving your son, as u came out and didn’t see your son why can’t u stay back?

Olivia: Enough of this mom, leave me alone, I am back and I don’t plan going back to him

mom: I wish your father was still alive, u will not spew all these rubb-ish!

Olivia: let me go and dress my room mom, we can talk later.

From that day she started leaving with her parents, she forced her people to return the bride price Kelly paid on her head even though he was not ready to collect it, finally he took it and she was free from him,

it was not easy for her because she came out of the marriage without a dime, she had no money as he didn’t give her any and she wasn’t working, she survived by the little her mom gives her, she regretted ever staying in a Marriage without a sustainable income, now she is understanding what Kelly was talking about but of course she cannot go back to beg him, she was free to mingle,

After 3months she was already in a relationship with another prince charming, Gilbert is a gentleman, he is well disciplined and had his principles intact, he is a banker, they met where she went to bank to do something, they started dating, After 3 weeks he invited her to his house, she went with enthusiasm, they were still talking when his phone rang, he picked and said ‘ hello baby’ before he could say any other thing she snatched the phone from him

Olivia: Gilbert do I look like a fool to u? what the hell is this? ? she asked in anger

Gilbert:(shocked) I don’t understand, give me my phone

Olivia: what is there to understand? a woman is calling u in my present and u even picked it and called her baby right in my presence? what do u take me for?

Gilbert: wonder shall never end, so I shouldn’t make calls because u are with me? do u know the person calling me?

Olivia: let me tell u, I don’t take rubb-ish in relationship or marriage, I am not those type of girls,

Gilbert: and what did u take me for? check the number and see I was talking to my baby sister in University, that is how I address my sisters, u can go on Whatsapp and check

Olivia: who are you decieving? u are a chea’t, a dog, that is what u are

Gilbert ( stood up gave her a resounding slap) how dare u? is that how u address people? look at the fool I am planning to marry, now I see the reason you couldn’t keep your Marriage

Olivia: did u just slap me?

Gilbert: and I will slap u again if u don’t leave my house this minute, do u think I can cope with a nagging wife? to hell with u and your beauty

Olivia: and u think I can cope with a cheat?

Gilbert: who is Cheating? why are u so gullible? check the number and go to my WhatsApp to see her picture, she is Christy my younger sister, now get out of my house

Olivia: is that how to treat a woman? u should calm down and talk to me

Gilbert: calm down with a woman that nags? leave my house now before I place a mark on you

Olivia: is okay, I’m leaving

She left and to her surprise Gilbert did not call her back, later she met Andre, the same nagging altitude separated her from him, within the space of 8 months she has dated 4 men and they all loved her to stupor but non could withstand her nagging and quarrelsome life, that was when it was down on her that she is really the cause of her problems

At mid night one day her mother overheard her weeping deeply in her room, she rushed out to know why she was crying but her door was locked, she begged her for several minutes before she opened the door for her

mom: Olivia please don’t scare me, why are u crying? what is wrong?

Olivia: Mommy I want to go back to my husband, how am I going to start? i don’t think I will ever forgive myself if I did not go back to my home to correct my mistake

mom: I don’t think Kelly will accept u back, u see what I’ve been telling u, but why did u suddenly want to go back? u vow never to go back there

Olivia: mum do u know I’ve dated 4 men since I started living with u?

mom; what are u doing with 4 men?

are u a prostitute

Olivia: mommy keep sxx out of this, I did not sleep with any of them, I know what I was looking for, mom let me tell u the truth, the 4 of them raise their hands on me, something Kelly has never done in his life, no matter what I do or say he will never beat me, now I know that I’m the one with the problem but how is Kelly going to forgive me? I even forced him to come and collect the bride price, I’ve lost the best man in the whole world

mom: clean your eyes, I love the fact that u didn’t sleep with any of them, it shows u have self dignity, I will follow u to go and beg Kelly tomorrow

Olivia: thank u mom, I can’t wait

Kelly’s Apartment

Daniel: so till now you haven’t found another woman? this is 8 months already, guy wake up

Kelly: I know u will not understand, I am so scared of even talking to another woman, who knows how that one will be behaving, a man that has stayed in an unhealthy marriage is always scared of meeting the worst, those men on the street decieving girls that they are looking for peace of mind are adulterous men looking for Their prey, the real men that has suffered in their marriage will take their time to observe life before going to another woman

Daniel: I understand you but u need to move on, your son needs a mother

(they heard a knock at the door)

Kelly: who is that? please come in

Olivia and her mother walked in, Olivia was looking sober, she and her mother knelt down to apologise, Daniel was very angry, he felt like telling Kelly to drive them away, Kelly stood up and walked around the room, I’ve forgiven u Olivia, he said

Daniel: what I just hear u say?

Kelly: I’m not talking to u Dan, Olivia I’ve forgiven u, u and mom should stand up

the mom stood up but Olivia refused to stand up, she was weeping bitterly, I am so sorry Kelly, I promise to be the best wife u could ever ask for if u accept me again, I’ve realize mistakes, u tolerated all my nuisance, why am I so ungrateful?

Kelly: (went to her and held her hands) I’ve forgiven u, I did not pray for a broken home, I do not wish to be jumping from one women to the other, how am I going to be happy separating u and our son? I took him away hoping to have u back one day with sincere repentance

Olivia: honestly I am the luckiest woman in the whole world if u accept me back, I will never ever try such again, I’ve realized where I missed it

Kelly: you are welcome home, as long as u keep to your words we will be happy together ( turned to Daniel) I am sorry if I’ve offended u by accepting her back but I have to, it is not every problem in marriage that requires splitting up, yes I can easily send her away now to get another woman but what if she is genuinely sorry and ready to change? I am going to pay her bride price again

Daniel: I am happy for u Kelly, I am only concerned about your sanity but if she is really ready to change so be it, yes I agree with you, not every problem in marriage requires divorce, i am glad both of u are back again

mom: I’m so happy may God bless this union

Kelly and Olivia: Amen(hugs)

Kelly: Dear reader, I am writing from my 27yrs of marriage with Olivia and I can tell u she has been the best thing that has ever happened to me since she came back, today she is everything I desire, she is doing well in her business and had acquired many assets in her name, she is loving, kind and humble, a soul mate and a partner but do u know that not all men has my kind of patience? not all men will remain faithful to a nagging and quarrelsome wife, not all men will accept a woman back to their life after she left by herself,

be your husband’s best wife, marry him to an extent u know that no woman can marry him better than u, so that even if he starts misbehaving he will hold nothing against u, thanks for reading

Olivia: women check yourself well, are u your husband’s soulmate? do u know his priorities? do u know his favorites? how many times have u make out Time to give him the best? do u know if u are hurting him or u don’t even care? do not make the same mistake I made, I have the grace to come back to his life but some women do not, thanks for reading
