I had been desperate to leave Lizzy’s office since the laboratory scientist took my blood. While I watched Lizzy surf with her laptop, my mind had gone far as to the kind of diseases or sickness the lab test might result. “I was thinking that I should go pick the kids and come back for the result.” I said. “No hold on a bit, the lab guy will be done soon.” moments later, there was a knock on the door. “Come right in.” Lizzy said shrilly. The lab guy appeared like a ghost, leaving my heart to tremble, I watched him handing a white envelope to Lizzy. “Done?” Lizzy asked politely. “Yes Doctor” Lizzy opened the envelop hastily and I tugged on my ear thoughtfully. “What’s the result?” I asked, still tugging my hands in my ears. Lizzy shook her head and stared at me for a while. “Hmmm… Ekom it’s malaria and typhoid jare.” She handed the envelop to me. Opening one of the envelops, I grinned, hiding my face behind it. Not a word came out of my lips. Silence. More silence. And a pinch more sile

Lizzy whipped off her lab coat and threw it on the floor. I must have made a face because she looked at me and laughed. “I am so tired Ekom.” She said, while getting water from a dispenser.” “Obviously.” I said meanly. She gulp down the water and then took a deep breathe. “you know I haven’t seen you since you returned, it’s been 5months now. what has been happening? you look really different.” “nothing much. David is seeking for a divorce.” “grant him. After all he has a son now from his maid. the baby falls sick almost every single day. I am tired of treating him.” She reeled off, while trying to put on another lab coat.” “Did she put to birth here in your clinic?”. “No. I heard she put to birth in London. I wasn’t even around at that time. I was on a 3month course in Australia.” “oh okay. Lizzy I think the kids and I will be relocating to America by next year.” “Better. start up a new life over there. I hope you have not given up on God?” “The question should be if God hasn’t given

...to walk down that aisle.  The spirit of motivational speaking left me, the spirit of boldness left me. My mind wasn’t at peace. I stood up gently and walked out of the auditorium, not minding if there was heavy downpour. I walked into the rain, I was soaked but it didn’t matter. “Excuse me madam” a lady’s voice screamed behind me. But I didn’t turn. I drove off that evening, in my wet body. *** The next morning, I woke up in pains. I felt my panties wet. I knew something was wrong, I dipped my hands into my panties and saw blood. It was menses, I cleaned up and prepared the kids for school. As I alighted from the car to drop them in their classes, a woman dressed in a corporate attire approached me. “You are so weak, why did you allow a common maid to take away your husband?” she asked boldly. But I didn’t reply. I dodged her and took the kids to their classes. As I drove home, my phone rang. It was Salma the choir mistress of hills ministries. I picked the call reluctantly. “Hello?

Abigail stared at me right in the face, as I narrated all that has been happening to me. https://onihaxy.com She is my immediate younger Sister, who is a stunt feminist and very independent. “Sis, Why did you tell him that you will be patient? you should have granted the divorce and become free.” Abigail clucked and sighed loudly. “I am people’s mentor and role model. A lot of young women in the church look up to me. I have to live a life worth emulating. what will people say if I get divorce and still stand on the church podium to preach marriage and love?” I asked looking at her like I demanded a pity. “This is what you women always say. last week in Ibadan, a lady called Modupe was brutally beaten by her husband, she died.” Her voice got a bit emotional as she continued. “she didn’t tell anyone of what she was going through. She thought things were going to change. she thought that one day Jesus was gonna come down and rescue her, or stop her husband from beating her. ” “David has n

 The cool air felt heavy against my bare arms, as if they were holding onto raindrops that were reluctant to fall. It was a cold Sunday evening, I sat comfortably under the comfort of my children’s duvet, while I watched them sleep. Then I heard familiar voices in the sitting room. David and Ifeoma were back from church. https://onihaxy.com “Don’t worry, she won’t do anything to you. Take off your jacket, let’s go inside.” David Instructed, serious faced as they entered the sitting room. Ifeoma sat quietly on the couch. Her heart skipped a bit when she saw me appear in the sitting room, immediately she sensed my watchful eyes, she became bold and confident. “You should let me be please madam Ekom. it is not my fault that pastor wants me.” she said in a shaky tone. “Get prepared for where God will be taking you to Ifeoma. Very soon, you will be so ashamed of yourself, God has revealed to me how such a day will be.” “And I hope he also revealed to you that I have finally agreed to divorc

He sneaked into the children’s bedroom while I was about to pray. The imagery of how he sneaked into Ifeoma’s room was now clear, but it didn’t hurt me anymore. “Baby…..Please can I see you?” He said as his voice trailed off. I stood up gently and followed him to the sitting room. I found myself holding my breath, I folded my hands in my lap and waited. “i have missed you, despite all of these. I am sorry for the way mom talked to you, she is only acting of concern for me. I am her only child.” “So you are going to marry Ifeoma after she puts to birth?” I asked in a low tone. There were sadness in my eyes. He pulled me close and began to kiss me softly. “I feel like we are doing this for the very first time.” I admitted softly. My voice a broken whisper as I gave him my whole body. Now my limbs entwined with his, it was a joy unparalleled to have the freedom to slide my hands down that strong, lean back with its taut, well developed muscles and silky skin, to feel the amazing well defi

My mother inlaw visited.  I didn’t know why she came home that evening, but I had a feeling David might have told her that I was back from America. After my father inlaw died some years ago, she took over the twelve branches of Hills of grace ministries. She accused every pastor In each branch for killing her husband, and arrested everyone of them. Hills of grace ministry used to be Church of Jesus ministries, but she and her only son David (my husband) had the church changed with new pastors and members. Georgina being a boss lady wanted everything to be done in her own way at all times. The church members referred to her as the queen mother. She was bossy, overruling, and very authoritative. “I heard you were back Ekom.” Her voice sounded slightly rough as though some unexpected emotions had partially locked her throat. “Yes mom.” I replied softly. “I came here for a lot of reasons. Number one; the congregation of Hills ministries is tired of you. I am tired of you, my son is tired o

I wanted to talk to David. When I knew he was home I decided to go to our bedroom. https://onihaxy.com “May I come in?” My expression inscrutable, I walked into the room when I noticed that someone was having a bath, without waiting for a reply. Then I saw David on the bed, he was almost half naked, partly covered with the duvet. He stared at me, slightly muzzy headed after being woken abruptly. “We have to talk.” I said, almost whispering. “I know.” he said. “Who is in the bathroom?” “oh, it’s Ifeoma.” “Ifeoma now uses our bathroom?” I looked at David and suddenly wished the look in his eyes meant guilt and shame. “Yes. She is having my baby.” “I am aware David. But why have you taken yourself so down?” “I am a human being Ekom!” He said huskily, raising his voice. “So I am what? Am I not a human being too? I went to America with the church’s name, with the family name. I went there to make a name for us! To get Hills of grace ministries a branch in Houston takes so many churches year

 That morning, my husband David came to pick me at the airport. He was dry faced and tensed, very unusual. Other times, David would be so excited to come pick me, he would kiss me and hug me passionately, but now, everything became different. “You kept me waiting for hours in there.” I said, gazing angrily at him. “Don’t tell me it’s traffic honey, today is Saturday.” “I am sorry, I had to pick the kids from summer lessons, and then rush to church to counsel a few couples.”He said soothingly. “you now prepare the kids for school, What happened to Ifeoma? she is the kids nanny.” “And you are the Kids mom!” He Screamed suddenly. “you’ve been away from your family for 5months Ekom, the kids don’t even talk about you anymore.” David deliberately slowed his breathing in a bid to calm himself down. I was silent for a while. my lips quivered, but David ignored that he saw tears glistening in my eyes. Catching his eyes as he tried to look at me, I sensed a shiver of unease go through him. He w
