HOW I SAVED MY MARRIAGE

Chapter 5

Her tummy swell and swell.
That's in my words.
Maybe she has eaten more than neccessary Lil Adjoa said this was when we went to visit my Aunt.
    I now prepared the food.
"Sometimes".She always prepared the dishes.
   I felt exhausted especially when I prepared several dishes and she refused to consume them.
   Imagine going to the Mall after work
and coming back home to wash some clothes.
  Well not with my hands but a new washing machine I procured a week ago. I couldn't wash like she did??
    In a nutshell, I was the most exhausted person in the house.
She only did sweeping, washing the utensils and scrubbing which I feared most .
    It's a cheat! How can I go to work and come back to do all these things.
   Well,she also goes to work. She's a Teacher.
   I do alot than her. Let me dive into what I really do.
  I fried sausages, eggs hmmmm
I prepared breakfast. I couldn't prepare noodles. That's a reason for marriage or???
   So she did the wife ones.
The day I did alot of cooking was when I made breakfast and night tea for her with some fruits which she loved most.  Above all putting on her nightie.
    You might ask if her nightie was part of cooking.
Well,that was the food preparation I enjoyed most. I could join her anytime.
    I'm a man,and you'd grasp this.
Love made me a Church fan. We never joked with godly activities. We joined service via Zoom always even in Maldives.
     I really enjoyed it when friends congratulated us for our unborn child.
Prior to marriage, they called me" A TOOTHLESS DOG" .But how can you hurt someone you love??
   Her Mom and her sister came to aid her till she delivered.
   Dad called and advised me.
"Be a true man, Be honest and love your wife"
He also told me Dave wanted to see me at the hospital.
Not so fast he had gone home before I got to the hospital.
   Amazingly, Love regurgitated on me a second time, for she smelled diesel.
Hmmm,women and  pregnancy .
They will spit all over,sleep alot,easily get angry ,wish to take in anything that falls into their memory .
  And in the middle of eating regurgitate what they asked for.
She sometimes gets on my love. Not my nerves. The love is too deep.
  When Mom was around, she behaved more like a baby.
Her tone was "oh Mom let me do this ,let me do that...."
   She must work hard for safer and easy delivery.

     Love disappointed me again. Could you believe what happened??
  Noo,Fred I can explain, you don't get it.
This was when Fred actually misunderstood an act which occurred.
Chris our driver got fired .
Chris caressed me and I slapped him
Fred thought I allowed him to do so.
Nowadays he becomes so jealous and quiet. When I asked him he'd say,
                 " It's nothing" I hated this word in particular.
There again he left for Jerry's house.
I went after him even in my situation .I was in my ninth month.
     I woke him up with a soft rub on the cheek as I always did.
He  woke up looking stranded.
He said,
      Love, what are you doing here???
I told you I was fine.
Something could have happened to you and the little angel.
   Freddy you left me. You promised never to.
He winced and smiled at me.
           "I'm sorry " he said.
It touched the inner me. I nodded with a smile.
Love,he called.
          Yes!
If anything happens to the two of you.
  I'm gonna be responsible for that.
Ouch,Ouch,Ouch!!!! She was screaming loudly .
   I smiled, I thought she was joking. She was in labour.
Oh no!! The best I could do was rush her to the hospital and call Mom.
    It was hilarious how she reacted in pain but I stood and interceded for them for safer delivery.
About an hour, I heard new voices crying loudly. Perhaps most people have also delivered. My Abby wasn't the only one in labour.
  I broke the silent cries when I jumped into the room.
          Twins!!!!!!
The nurses were then separating them from the umbilical cord.
Well nourished they were. Their Mom ate a lot.
She diffused food to them via the umbilical cord as well as blood. It's only their faeces that they diffused to their mother  for expulsion.
  All her prayers were for twins.
Fraternal twins.
A boy and a girl.
Hmmmm,this was joy but double work too.
She smiled and slept.
She was in pain unbearable. Women are so special. They really incubate things. Sometimes naughty words we release to them.
Some return it back harshly but some neglect and reframe it in lovely words.
   Her Mom spent some more time with her talking about Abby's birth. It was time for her to leave. For we decided she'd take Abby through her Gestation period and my Mom will take care of her till she was fit for work and perhaps for more physics.
      Darling,
I wanna say I'm sorry for everything. Please find a place in there  to forgive me okay.
      In where??? My heart is full.
With??He asked.
    "You".Abby said.
I can't believe what Chris did to you Abby.
Tell me how  it happened.
Fred,Chris was a College friend. He was like a brother. He never mentioned anything like Love to me.
I don't know what came over him today.
  Let's forget about that and move on  No one can hurt you ok. Fred assured me .
Mom refused to come aid Abby. I knew if Dad was around, he'd come. He left for London. A work trip.
Life is sometimes unbalanced. How can your own Mother hate "The Love of your life"
No one can put asunder what God has joined together.
I've found the Best wife ever.
  She always woke up at dawn and interceded for us.
  I  teach her physics or darling I'm lying ???
     No Fred,it's a marital issue.
Hmmmm,Till now I don't know how I got pregnant.
Could someone have dipped something in my drink, water  to induce sleep on me???
    I'm not Mary the mother of Jesus. The Saviour has already done His work. Years ago.
I'm a bit jittery.
Is this your plan devil???
Twins without a Dad??? Could it be Chris?? What if it's him?? This isn't logic??
Could it be Maxwell?? My lecturer who proposed that for my grades.
That's also in level 200 how possible??
    My mind was trying to figure out how this happened.
  I'm hungry!!! Mom rushed in.
Where's Fred??
Mom my Fred is an outstanding Lawyer ,He has never lost a case. He's got to defend a client. Let's pray he wins.
Meanwhile at the court room,

Fred managed to defend his client over an alleged abortion.
     It was Dave, our family doctor we all searched for.
He was exonerated because he was not guilty for the alleged crime.
But he told me a secret for he was proud of me.
    It kept us in suspense.
