Nonsense Mistake - S01 E05

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 5

The next day, Oluchi was rushing to leave, Chidimma advised her that what she was about doing wasn’t good.

“This is inhuman! After all the things that man has done for you, after all the sacrifices, you still have the guts to betray him like this? Don’t be so selfish, my dear friend, don’t be an ingrate. Consider him, Oluchi. His issue is just a minor thing, you can tush him up, you can help him to change, I am sure he will be willing to learn.”

“Chidimma, I don’t know when you finally became a counsellor. But like I said, marriage should be base on love and anything apart from that, you count me off. I need to get out from here before Ofoma storm in on me. Just tell him that, I am wishing him success in all his endeavors” she said, carrying her bag and left in a hurry.

Not up to 4 minutes she left, Ofoma arrived.

“Oluchi, thank God you finally changed your mind. You don’t have to break up with him” Chidimma said, opening the door, thinking that Oluchi was the one knocking.

“Ow, Mr Ofoma, you are here? Good morning?” She greeted.

But Ofoma stood for some seconds, giving her a questioning look and then asked “Bleak up with who?”

“Um Mr Ofoma, can you come inside please, you don’t have to stand on the door.”

“Where is Oluchi?” He asked, looking serious.

“Mr Ofoma, can you please come inside?” She continued..

“I demand to know where she is light now, did she reave the city? Chidimma, I demand you tell me the tluth at once” he requested, feeling tensed.

“See Mr Ofoma, in life, things can not always go the way we wanted and that does not mean the world has ended. There is always a bright side to every challenges. Only God knows why things are going………..”

“Chidimma, I’m not in for this rong talks light now” He interrupted her

“Hmm, I’m sorry that I’m telling you this now but, Oluchi has left the city, she just left and did not give me any clue to where she was going. She gave a message that she is sorry for everything, that she will forever remain grateful for all the things you did for her, just that she can’t marry you, that she does not love you that much to be your wife”

“Chidimma, you are not saying the tluth, Oluchi can not possibry do this to me. She rove me so much and won’t think of hurting my feerings.”

“I am sorry Mr Ofoma, but the earlier you accept the truth, the better for you. Oluchi is no more in your life, so you just have to move on.” She said, feeling sorry for him.

“I don’t berieve you, Oluchi can’t do this to me. Ret me call her light now” he said, began dialing her number.

“Ofoma, I am on my way to a place where you will not be able to see me again. It’s time you move on with your life and forget everything about me. And please, don’t call my line again. Goodbye forever.” She then ended the call to his ear.

And on hearing that, Ofoma broke into tears and left himself on the floor.

“This can’t be tlue, It can’t be! After evelything we shared, after all I have done for her, this is how she chose to reward me?”

He wept bitterly, making Chidimma to cry along with him.

“I understand your pain, Sir. But it’s well.. Can you please come inside? Just come inside” Chidimma requested.

“No Chidimma, there is no point staying here, I have to leave.” He said in a teary eyes and then left.

Ofoma felt bitter, he hated himself for loving Oluchi. He built his hopes round her and got his heart shattered. He resorted to consuming excessive alcohol to forget reality which almost cost him his life. But “time” been the ultimate healer, he was able to move on with his life and grabbed the notion of not “trusting any woman again”.
