*********************************************************************

Finally, the cars begin to move, she hissed with anger flushing through her
System. She is easily upset and hard to please. Checking the time on her diamond wristwatch, she whispered slowly

Oh god Im almostlate.

She drove into the big compound, which reveals the majestic international business company.
She was however, proud to have the job. The kind of job most of her mate wouldnt
Get on merit.

All thanks to her father in-law who seat pretty in the catbird seat. She now
Has a good paying job. To her, life is a game and she has played it well.
.


Barely two months after her marriage to his son, had Chief Ola Adeniyi felt it was right to make his daughter in-law benefit from his influence. Ever since, the sky has become her limit. Working the biggest insurance company in Nigeria and married to the son of a celebrated family in Nigeria and Africa at large, makes her looks down her nose on everyone at the office.

She rushed into the lower room of the office, meeting the secretary who handed over some letter mail to her, she simply ignore her smile feeling confident.

Walking elegantly with a black hilled shoe, a warmly conference room awaits her arrival. She is obviously not the boss here But, a presentation has to be made to the last proposal written.

Im.so sorry for keeping you all waiting. I was tied down by the heavy traffic. She explains
She could hear her colleagues grumbling and whispering.
She could not surely tell what Margaret and Tolani were whispering but she could tell

from the look on their face. The situation at hand is quite complex and she manage to

ignore all side comment pretending to be really sorry


As the meeting proceeds, Margaret and Tolani could not stop as the exchange gossip messages.

I think I need to sleep with the M D


Toani messaged Margaret from her phone.

What! Are u crazy? Margaret replied with making a face
Did you not see how the MD reacted to Bose late coming?
She is the general supervisor here remember dumb ass. Margaret replied her.



Boses presentation was just as every one expected. Explicit and comprehensive with

a data analysis that gave the company a bird eye view of what the next step to take.

The meeting ended on a good note with a complimentary remark for Bose.

I must thank Mrs. Adeniyi for her awesome presentation. Over the past seven years,

She joined this company, I must say we have moved tremendously upward and we

Likewise have had over fifty proposals approve.

Everyone gave applause as a sign of appreciation, which was not sincere.

Every one knew how much the MD talks about Bose. He has a beautiful, smart and soft

Soft-spoken wife He never misses to talk about his wife at the office. But, it confuses the all,

how he sometimes would look at Bose and call her husband a lucky man.


On different occasions, Bose had violated the first commandment of the company.

Thou shall not exceed 8: am before showing up for woke.
She has broken this rules couple of times. Likewise, the fifth rule.
Thou shall not say sorry right before you break the commandment.

She is one of the best the company has and the MD cannot afford to lay such a potential off the company. She knew Bose take more priority in her job but he failed to notice her egocentric was the master ruler in her home.

The meeting ended. She went into her office and sank into her chair. She probably

Knows how to fake good countenance and smile She worries more about Fred and

More importantly her kids. She is beginning to regret her actions now. She tries her

best to ignore his absence in her life but the more she tries the deeper the feeling gets.

Fred has not shown up or ring to speak with his kids for the last six months. This is quite on usual of him.

Fred is a loving and caring father. She knew she pushed him this time. She had taken his simplicity for weakness and her marriage is heading to the grave.
She tried calling him but his number has been switched off. The matter is getting worst and gossip travels fast
Fred family has threatened to sue her if their son was not found.

Like, he was missing she thought.

Fred sister, a six years barrister at the bar threatens to sue her.


She seems completely lost. She called up her two friends to help her

There she got the shock of her life after realizing her suppose friends had been very

Supportive and loyal to their husbands.

Why did they sit to listen to how she tortured her husband without advising her against her ill attitude?

We are not the one who married you to him. Mrs chika brutally spelt it out to her

We didnt give you any advice nor did
we tell you to be rude to you husband. Mrs Rotimi told her.

But you could a list advice meor tell me I was heading for distraction. You just sat


to listen to my sweet smelling story in order for you to laugh and make yourself happy


and boost your self esteem

You were only foolish Bose. You always think you know the best because are the G.S of a big multimillionaire company. But, its different when it comes to marriage issue.
Mrs chika yelled out.

What are you insinuating Bose asked an angry tone
You are the one that keep telling us about your husband and family. We have listened to you for five years, talked about you marriage but not for a second have we said any thing about ours.
You could have reasoned and stop talking.

You were trying to tell me to stop talking about my marriage. She asked weeping silently

We tried to tell you but I think its better you learn the hard way. Mrs Chika signed

Do I deserve this; that my husband left me and now my in-laws sees me as monster?
She asked her two friends.
You could change from been a monster to a better person if you put your house back together. They both advise her.




Still sitting in her elevated office, Bose kept thinking about the constant rift in her


Last night, Clara and Dammy didnt give her a breathing space. They persistently

Ask about their daddy. Though young, the children knew their parents were not such a good friends.
Sometimes, the noisy disagreement from the parents room often wake them. They have most of their argument in their memories and the next morning they see it in all in their parents action especially their mother. They could tell their family wasnt such a happy one.


Bose never wanted her children to be unhappy. If they were unhappy, she

Probably has denial them the fatherly love.

Her memories went back to the first few months of her marriage. How loving she had


been. She just built up a false theory that creates the monster in her. The wonderful

life she thought she had is now fading away. Her mum was right, not all men would

Turn out to be frustrating and would leave her the way her father did to her mother.

Her life is more ironical and pathetic.

Fred had endured much in their marriage. He might have his bad side but he is a complete gentle man and the best father he had seen in his whole life.

Dammy and Clara would not believe her and they kept pushing her to tell the truth. They desperately want to see their daddy. He has never been away for so long.


Your dad went on a business trip and would be back anytime soon.

But he has gone for six months now. Clara told her making the usual angry face.

He has never travel that long. Or his he dead and you are trying to hid it from us?


Dammy asked with an inquisitive look.


No oh how.. could you say something like that. That is so not good. Bose warned her two daughters not to think such an awful imagination.
Its creepy to think like that.
Its creepy a bad thing. Dammy asked.
I want you
Clara interrupted her still persistent

But, its true mum. I have read it and I have seen it in the movies.
When a parent dies, the other parent tell lies to the children because they feels the child might be depress and unhappy.
Surprise with such words coming out from her six years old daughter, Bose manage to swallow some saliva
I am telling you the truth you dad is healthy and alive. Its business thats all.


Their conversation did not end well. She has to close the chapter but promising to call their father to come home.


Dammy and Clara really love their father. He is the family kind of person. Family comes first before friends or relative. He put much energy and time to teach and assist

his children with their homework whenever he was around.

No matter how nagging his wife was, he never takes it out on his children. Bose never


ask for his children school fees before its paid. He never forgets their birthday and

Christmas. She is beginning to see the light and she misses her husband and

Desperately wants him back home and to her life.
The only thing she keep thinking: will he ever come back


She knows now, she was wrong. Her mother and father might not have ended well, their life might be sad but she just figured out how God had compensated her with a wonderful of man to replace the fatherly love and the beautiful childhood she could not experience but she has thrown it to the wind. She is indeed shallow




Six months, two days and 12 hours ago, their conversation and argument lasted for three hours. And for the first time in her marriage her husband tries hit her she has never seen Fred I such an ugly devilish mood until that day when Fred pushed her off his face and held her in tight and meant to beat her.

She became scared for the very first time. She had once slapped Fred right in the presence of her own mum and he never reacted.

She watched as Fred carried his brief case and walked out of the room with a anger clouding him.


The worst of all her situation right now, Fred is not picking her calls and neither

retuning his messages.

Should I tell lie to defend myself or should I tell my children the truth. She can only

keep the story just to her self and hope Fred would return home to her and his children.





Chapter 3
In a big supermarket, her constant shopping place. Kemi walked around looking for nothing. She has not fully recovered from Freds disappointment. Her friends advised. Her to stop thinking about him
he doesnt deserve you
Only she could tell. Fred is an amazing guy. She never thought he could cheat on her. He was romantic and funny.
She stood motionless on a sport looking lost and obviously absent from that point.
Kemis driver had kept close contact with Fred. Telling him each moment how she was faring. She didnt care to inform her house helps to stay off Fred. Her love life is not a matter to be discussed.

Fred came into the store. He look round before sighting, he took up the courage and approached her
Hi
Fred called her tapping her by the shoulder.


Oh, god how did you know I was here. She yelled out
I just came to..

Mr Fred Adeniyi of what ever you call yourself I just want you to leave me alone

Baby Im as sorry I never intend to hurt you I am not what you think.

Oh yes. Can ask you something Mr. Good


Are you parents also proud of you been a super hero cheat, or is your wife happy you chase after me?
Believe me I am not proud of what I did.
Then I wish you could see yourself in the mirror right now. Some people view life as a game or something related to that and I should say I believe it a little of what you are up again.

Kemi? I really dont know what else to say

Okay, there is no better way to say this, so Im just going to be honest I m just gonna say I shouldnt have love you in the first place.

She almost walk away while Fred held back her hand.

Look into my eyes and say that again.
Smiling with tears in her eyes, she screamed at him

What part of I dont love you are you missing out.

Her mind is made up she has close that chapter of her live. She left Fred standing alone in the store looking sad and unhappy. However, never with the mind of giving up on her.( I will be right back)

Work return to the hectic city. The road is busy as usual. Men busy displaying their wares to inquisitive men and women in their cars. School buses conveying schoolchildren to their various schools and a rigid hold-up frustrating the supercilious Mrs. Adeniyi who in a hurry to meet up a meeting at the office.


If there was any thing she jokes with in all areas of life, it was never with her two kids and her job. Nothing matters to her. Neither her marriage nor her husbands frustration, which she inflicted on him matters to her. She made it clear to those who care to listen on how she had tamed her husband to be loyal to him. To her, that is how life should be right from the creation. Men should not lord over their wives.
I know go sit down make one man com dey hala me rubbish she proudly discussed with her tailor who approached her for marital advise.

Her advice gave the tailor a different opinion of her. She has always looked open Bose has a loving and patient wife. Now she is more convinced why she never saw the husband with her at the church.

Bose pattern her life in the way that best suite her, not minding if anyone gets hurt.

But, what of sermon she listen from the priest every Sunday and at the morning mass. That is nothing she always told herself. Anytime she feels a bit guilty for her constant nagging, she runs to the priest to make her usual confession.
She goes into the confessional box with guilty in her heart and voice.

Father, forgive me, for its been a long time since Ive been to confession
I constantly nag my husband and his family. Especially my husband I make life difficult for him
She quickly interrupts Fathers words.
Hmm, be..fore you judge me wrong I need to put this straight. My husband is a cheat; he is a miserable husband and a terrible father. So I just cant help it. She lied taking a deep breath.


Father Thomas is use with her confession so he just prays for her hoping to hear her voice this time next month. And yet, with the same confession
Father Thomas have never seize to wonder what sort of woman with no other confession than this one.
He also knew how she always ends her confession. He has become familiar with her.
He always get on my nerve even as I tried to be an understanding woman

That doesnt sound like a confession. He was never the less God to judge her.

He just prayers for her and these last words of the reverend father gladdens her heart its more like strength and antidote to her next struggle


You are washed, and justified in the name of our lord Jesus Christ. May the almighty God be with you. Go in peace and sin no more.

That was the reason she changed from a Pentecostal church to a catholic church. She wouldnt have to answer to alter call before confessing her sins. Moreover, she will only stand in the confessional box while the reverend father prays a prayer of peace with her face not revealed.

Her husband was right about her been a mysterious woman but she couldnt care less what he thinks.

for all she cares about, is her children. No man will manipulate her like her father did to her mother and later took off to live with his lover in Texas. (To be continued)***

******************************************
chapter 2
The heavy rain tipped down at night and the whether feels cold. kemi had developed
a serious headache from the profuse tears that did not allow her wink her eyes all night long. she only drift off when the thought of kunle came back into her memory. Like she once thought, "no other person could replace kunle" . Now she is more convinced than ever before.
Right from her childhood to the point of her graduating years at Yale, life has been worthwhile. she graduated from oxford University having a first class in business Management. she proceeded to Yale where she held two masters degree in human relation and company management.
that was the only aspect of her life she finds amusing. Even as the CEO of Alex and Geoge's company she finds her life as meaningless. she had planed out how her life will be. married at the age of 23 years.That should have been after the degrees she had. But now, she is 27 and her dream of having a true love that she sees in the movie is yet to materialize

******************************************************

Fred was worried on his part. He knows how emotional Kemi could be. But she would not pick his call nor return his series of apology messages.
"why on earth should he send messages apologizing after hurting her so badly"
she thought wondering if he truly loves her as he claims

Tons of complicating thought flows through her mind as she scroll his offending messages reading them aloud, a flush of rage clouded her actions. her mind is made up.

******************************************************************************
Fred alone, feels nervously wrecked. He too was angry but with his wife.
He always wished he could turn back the hands of time. He was deceived by his wife's reticence as the sister leader in their undergraduate days. she always wore a gentle look and a pretentious smile to captivate guys attention at the school fellowship.


Fred did not fall for her charm while they were still students of Unilag. Their relationship was not a planned one not even their marriage.

It all begin when they met again at the NYSC Camp. He never imagined been married to sister Bose as he rightly call her. He had kept a gap between both of them while in school for reasons best know to him. Those who pay close attention at everyone's reaction at the fellowship knew for such, that Bose has a crush on fred but that was the same for many ladies too. No one could blame them for having such a pipe dream relationship with fred. Fred is eloquent, intelligent and with a nightingale voice as the choir master. His family name also earn him a big credit. The son of a big business tycoon in lagos and his mother as a professor of medicine. All this attribute together made girls at his beck and call. people wonder how he manage to exhibit such an outstanding character. He was different from other rich folks in school and the faculty of law.
fred knew he could not be happy with Bose but he did not take time to rethink when Bose confessed her love to him. He couldnt reject her love as he felt so pity looking into her eyes with much sincerity written all over her. Like a picture in his palm he remember clearly that night when Bose invited him over for dessert. he would have rejected her offer that evening but he was too kind to a fault.
He entered her room that evening, the sight of what he saw really played nice. He felt the a gentle breeze and the fragrance of a scented red candle on the let side of the decorated table set with for a nice meal.
He entered inhaling the fragrance of the sweet smelling air freshener in the air.

"I thought you were't going to make it. she complain not looking into his eyes. He manage to respond with a mischievous smile and made an an apologetic face.
fred knew for sure that it was going to be along dinner together but it was too late to turn back. He manage to sit on one of the three plastic chairs. He sees the look on her face, turn his head, roll his eyes and mouth
.
Her blue top was quite seductive revealing her cleavage. Fred felt uneasy as he chew the beef on his coconut rice. He tried not to look the very tempting cleavage but this eyes capture the very image each time he looks up at her.
"I hope you love the meal?"
she asked flashing a warm disarming smile,full of charm and completely thoughtful.
I love it. It's delicious. He replied. reading her mind.
they talk about days in school, the series of activities held then on campus and the last convocation ceremony of the schoo
l.
The breeze came up on sudden. Fred almost got of Bose's house when the rain started. it tipped down high that he couldnt get on the road.
"can I can get an umbrella" he asked in low voice more worried than ever before. it was getting late and Bose is beginning to irritate her.
I'm so sorry I dn't have one. she lied.
she pretentiously assured him of getting to his lodge that night
.
Bose looks undeniably beautiful in her top. the room was getting cold and fred was becoming so far uneasy to look at Bose.

Bose on her part knew fred was getting into her and it what she long wanted right from their undergraduate days.
sitting on the chair and waiting for the heavy rain to stop, Fred stares intently at Bose.

Noticing this, she pulls her top over her head, revealing her white bra. she waits for fred to make the next move gently, he came close to her and he kisses her stomach as he slowly works his way upward. the swooning Bose grown increasingly breathless. finally letting go, they meet in a deep, sensuous kiss.
That was the beginning of an affair that led to wretched marriage he has shown to endure because of his two loving kid.
Nearly two years to their marriage, Bose became the lord of their home. she never comes to terms with her husband's opinions.
" let me make this clear to you mr. fred Adeniyi, we are married and that is it


no man can take this wedding ring away from me. and mind you, your life will remain a mystery" she gritted.
fred was not surprise at his wife's actions but he could not understand why she plan to make life difficult for him. Like cats and dogs they never agree on an issue. The matter came to its climax, when she arrested her sister in-law for allegedly stealing her money. Members of the family were furious with her but she practically each an everyone of them including her mother-law to stay off her marriage.


fred could not bear much of her trouble and he decided to rent another apartment at lekki.
He was now more miserable than ever, kemi would not pick his call not even the mail sent to her box which explains his action.

thanks alot i will do justice to that.

awesome. nice story

pls i have to rewrite my story as i did not prepare my characters well the first time. some reasonable changes have taken place but i have the same story line. thanks



kemisola sat on her large mattress in her beautiful pink painted room. Her gentle soft pillow also hugged to her chest. Her eyes looks paled out and had been obviously puffed out from series of tears that had
soaked up two handkerchief. She runs her hand through her bed aiming to get a cloth to clean up the uncontrollable tears. She burps at the same time.
Everyone in her office had viewed her life has been colourful. Though she had not at any time displayed any public emotion that would arise such gossips. But, deep within , she knew her life is a total disaster.
Born into a riches and influential family in political and general culture, life was suppose to be a bed of rose. A life full of happiness void of painful memories. At certain point in her life, she began to realize that life do not always give us what we want.The memories of her childhood was really an exciting one.It was full of happiness, joy and love. At the early age of eight, she had graduated into Saint
Peter International school with the highest score in the state. Her parents had to give her a benefit of a doubt as she was too young to be in a boarding school .Reverend sister Clara's point had outwit her parents doubt. unlike most mothers would feel, Mrs Adamu begin to develop a great phobia for her daughter's success. she was always happy anytime kemi returns home with a good report card but sometime's great fear pop into her spirit when she thinks about how fetish people are then she gradually becomes nervous about kemi's extraordinary achievement. though Mrs Adamu was also a great student during her years at the great university of ife popularly called OAU. Despite her parents financial challenges, Mrs Adamu who was then Teju Awoniyi graduated from faculty of law with her grade point pointing toward a first class. At the Lagos State Law School, she also broke the record by graduating with a first class. Despite of this trait, Mr. Adamu finds in her daughter, she never stop calling her husband's attention to her fear.
"I can't stop worring about kemi's extraordinary brilliant skills". she bitterly complained to her husband one night
" You should be happy our daughter and only child is the lead in her school" that is the joy of every parents" her husband challenged her.
" I know how this things works.it is the joy of every mother to see her child been the best among her mate. but...
"are you saying our daughter's academic performance is a crime? her husband asked in a harsh voice getting irritated by his wife pessimistic attitude.
Mrs. Adamu defended her point. She explained her fear. Moreover, she was becoming irritated with the way parents in the school compares kemi with other students who did not measure up to standard. She pleaded with her husband to change her school to any one in London.
Mr. Adamu agrees to change his daughter's only after she had completed her senior school here in Nigeria.
"I want kemi to get acquainted with the culture and tradition of our people's before going to any country": he told his wife assuring her of the family's safety through prayers.
*********************************************************
kemisola still sitting her bed, with much thought flowing and popping into her head. she is a success in very thing but this aspect of her life is makes her thinks she is nothing but a failure. she's beginning to loss hope of becoming happy again.
Last six month was a memorable experience she never assumed was going to hurt her leaving a painful regret.
when fred walked into her life, she felt her life is about to write an everlasting love story. fred was a loving young man and soft spoken. l is every ladies dream guy. Losing kunle six a year before meeting Fred did not spell much meaning to her untill she was convince by her mother to let the thought of kunle die off giving fred a reasonable chance.
She can never forget that afternoon when she got call from kunle. The office had sent on him on impromptu journey to Akure. kemi was not happy to hear kunle leaving. She had hoped they would spend the weekend together.
Along Lagos Ibadan express road, the oncoming truck had collided with kunle's car who was on a high speed to catch up for the first face of the contract meeting.
kemi was so worried all through the night she could not wink her eyes all night long. she was still dialing his number the next afternoon when she got a call from kunle's younger brother who informed her that kunle was involved in a fatal accident.
" how is he? she asked quivering.
"kunle is ...dead he manage to tell her.
She finds herself later on the hospital bed looking at the white ceiling fan above her head.
"thank God you are wake" Tolani stared into her eyes with much pity clouding her action.
where is kunle? she asked Tolani who sits close to her bed holding her hand. Tolani did not know what her response should be. she knew how emotional her friend could be and she was happy he was able to come at the right time to help.
the two house girls in the house were confused when their mistress passed out after she screamed out on the phone. luckily, Tolani came right in time to rescue her friend. she rushed her to the nearest hospital then she informed her parents who have just relocated back to NewYork.
Kemi held her held in a tight grip, she quivers and screamed calling out on kunle
oh God why did you have to take away the best thing that makes me happy? She asked still fighting with the scary thoughts in her head.
Tolani called the attention of the nurses who came to calm her but she would not listen to any comfort words.
for day she was at the hospital. she refused to talk to anyone the only word she kept saying was kunle's name. she mentioned is name every five minute like she was actually watching the time to take note before calling it.
for days she was on the hospital bed hallucinating all about red. she quivers when this happens and like an electric shock flushing through her system, she yells out in pain.
the doctor in charge of her case assured her parents who took the next available flight to Nigeria. kunle's death weigh her down as she became so depress all the time. she
sits on the chair in her room everyday speaking to his picture as if he was there to respond to her.
" I think I will get all kunle's picture away from her room." Mrs.Adamu called her husband's attention to kemi's weird and creepy attitude.
" you will do no such" her husband warned.
" are you saying I should let my daughter suffer. she is in pain and sorry. I am a mother and I feel so much pain seeing her like that! she screamed out at her husband.
" do you think i do not feel her sorry. she is my daughter too you know, but we must let her realize we love her and we are willing to work with her to see she is happy again.
" how? tell me doctor Adamu. go on. tell me how she is going to come out of this mess buy not getting rid of those stupid pictures she hold everyday talking to it like he is actually there with her.
i understand you pain my love but believe me she will come around soon.
Mrs. Adamu could not understand her husband's theory. All she wants is to see her daughter back to life once again.
fred's appearance in Kemi's life gave her reason to laugh again.Though it did not clean up fred has a charming way of attracting people and in no time, kemi fell completely in love with him. she became happy as eve before. she smiles once again and her parents were happy especially her mother. the love between them grew from strength.
Handsome, with an alluring smile that always reveals his too side dimple, kemi was happy to have a guy who was every guys dream. they look good together and kemi dream of a white wedding buy the pool side.
fred is completely in love with me she told Tolani when both ladies were talking about relationship issue.
"you cant claim he that he is absolutely nice. No guy is that nice. It just a camouflage"
" Do you have to be negative" kemi asked him
" Well all guys are dogs...only that we have some loyal ones. Tolani assured her.
okay, madam. teasing her. "lets just say...my fred is a loyal dog". she shrugged
"Yes that is it" Tolani shouted. "that is the idea. every guy has the tendency to cheat.
but why are you getting all emotional about this? kemi asked
"well I love you and i hate to see you get hurt"
really? Kemi teased her friend.
remember, every virgin is always coy on her first dance. Tolani now speaking in a with a soft voice.
meaning? kemi asked her looking a bit confused.
"just be careful sis. fred is too good to be true.
"don't worry everything is perfect". she assured her friend with a nod.
lots of tears clouded kemi's mind. her last argument with her friends ensued into a rift that kept her at arms length with her friends. She can not stand their self-judgement about the man she loves so dearly.
she stop to think deeply on what her friends were seeing in character that blind hers. for all she could tell, fred was the best guy she had met in her life.
But right now, all she wished for his fred's death. A painful death worst than the death of the innocent Lord Jesus Christ with shame .she thought.
the scenario had the office created a question in everyone's mind.
Alex and George company is a well-known corporate body in the country signed for his reputation. she had worked for successful three years without creating any such scandal and not even one at all. but late this evening fred wife created a scene she never imagined would happen.
she had always vow not to date married men. to her, girls who date married men are selfish and mean. ironically she actually one of the ladies.
*********************************************
the afternoon have passed that faithful day. she waited for fred to pick her up for dinner t their usual restaurant but he did not show up and his number wasnt going through
"that was unlike him". she said thinking out aloud
she waited for a while before descending down to go alone in her brown infinity jeep. still smiling at the gate man who was thanking her for her generous contribution to his wedding, a woman from a distant scene bounced on her holding and locking up her thoroughly ironed TM pink shirt.
"excuse Madam you are embarrassing me".
oh na gramma you dey speak you slut. pointing her finger towards her eyes.
the gate man who could not take the insult confronted the woman like he aim to beat her up.

******************************************************

Fred was worried on his part. He knows how emotional Kemi could be. But she would not pick his call nor return his series of apology messages.
"why on earth should he send messages apologizing after hurting her so badly"
she thought wondering if he truly loves her as he claims

Tons of complicating thought flows through her mind as she scroll his offending messages reading them aloud, a flush of rage clouded her actions. her mind is made up.
Fred alone, feels nervously wrecked. He too was angry but with his wife.
He always wished he could turn back the hands of time. He was deceived by his wife's reticence as the sister leader in their undergraduate days. she always wore a gentle look and a pretentious smile to captivate guys attention at the school fellowship.
Fred did not fall for her charm while they were still students of Unilag. Their relationship was not a planned one not even their marriage.
It all begin when they met again at the NYSC Camp. He never imagined been married to sister Bose as he rightly call her. He had kept a gap between both of them while in school for reasons best know to him. Those who pay close attention at everyone's reaction at the fellowship knew for such, that Bose has a crush on fred but that was the same for many ladies too. No one could blame them for having such a pipe dream relationship with fred. Fred is eloquent, intelligent and with a nightingale voice as the choir master. His family name also earn him a big credit. The son of a big business tycoon in lagos and his mother as a professor of medicine. All this attribute together made girls at his beck and call. people wonder how he manage to exhibit such an outstanding character. He was different from other rich folks in school and the faculty of law.
fred knew he could not be happy with Bose but he did not take time to rethink when Bose confessed her love to him. He couldnt reject her love as he felt so pity looking into her eyes with much sincerity written all over her. Like a picture in his palm he remember clearly that night when Bose invited him over for dessert. he would have rejected her offer that evening but he was too kind to a fault.
He entered her room that evening, the sight of what he saw really played nice. He felt the a gentle breeze and the fragrance of a scented red candle on the let side of the decorated table set with for a nice meal.
He entered inhaling the fragrance of the sweet smelling air freshener in the air.
"I thought you were't going to make it. she complain not looking into his eyes. He manage to respond with a mischievous smile and made an an apologetic face.
fred knew for sure that it was going to be along dinner together but it was too late to turn back. He manage to sit on one of the three plastic chairs. He sees the look on her face, turn his head, roll his eyes and mouth.
Her blue top was quite seductive revealing her cleavage. Fred felt uneasy as he chew the beef on his coconut rice. He tried not to look the very tempting cleavage but this eyes capture the very image each time he looks up at her.
"I hope you love the meal?"
she asked flashing a warm disarming smile,full of charm and completely thoughtful.
I love it. It's delicious. He replied. reading her mind.
they talk about days in school, the series of activities held then on campus and the last convocation ceremony of the school.
The breeze came up on sudden. Fred almost got of Bose's house when the rain started. it tipped down high that he couldnt get on the road.
"can I can get an umbrella" he asked in low voice more worried than ever before. it was getting late and Bose is beginning to irritate her.
I'm so sorry I dn't have one. she lied.
she pretentiously assured him of getting to his lodge that night.
Bose looks undeniably beautiful in her top. the room was getting cold and fred was becoming so far uneasy to look at Bose.
Bose on her part knew fred was getting into her and it what she long wanted right from their undergraduate days.
sitting on the chair and waiting for the heavy rain to stop, Fred stares intently at Bose.
Noticing this, she pulls her top over her head, revealing her white bra. she waits for fred to make the next move gently, he came close to her and he kisses her stomach as he slowly works his way upward. the swooning Bose grown increasingly breathless. finally letting go, they meet in a deep, sensuous kiss.
That was the beginning of an affair that led to wretched marriage he has shown to endure because of his two loving kid.
Nearly two years to their marriage, Bose became the lord of their home. she never comes to terms with her husband's opinions.
" let me make this clear to you mr. fred Adeniyi, we are married and that is it
no man can take this wedding ring away from me. and mind you, your life will remain a mystery" she gritted.
fred was not surprise at his wife's actions but he could not understand why she plan to make life difficult for him. Like cats and dogs they never agree on an issue. The matter came to its climax, when she arrested her sister in-law for allegedly stealing her money. Members of the family were furious with her but she practically each an everyone of them including her mother-law to stay off her marriage.
fred could not bear much of her trouble and he decided to rent another apartment at lekki.
He was now more miserable than ever, kemi would not pick his call not even the mail sent to her box which explains his action.
