I had barely even balanced on my chair before this Dr. Seun of a man shoved his aso-ebi in my face, what is this one for I asked as I unwrapped the material, its actually my favourite colour, g-o-o-d-n-e-s-s!!!!!!!!!!! my heart knew I was surely buying this one, even though it meant my husband and I would have to speak small Spanish, my woman power must definitely come to play to win this battle considering we just had to settle school fees, family issues, small shopping for ourselves and the rent, buying anything should not even be on my mind, but this material is screaming my name and I have already answered. I had already thought about the style and the matching shoe and bag mehn!!! Bella Naija must notice my picture on Instagram. Dr Seun's voice brought me back to reality when he answered and said, it's for my wedding.... I paused, dropped the material, gave him a long look, when I realised, he looked serious then I stood and asked. Are you remarrying your wife? I mean Lola the mother of your two children? he said No. then I packed the dress handed it back to him and gave him a piece of my mind. so Seun after she caught you in bed with another woman, the best way to mend the crack in your wall is by marrying another?????????????? who is even the pastor or Imam joining you both, please I cannot attend such, Seun whispered something that sounded like Lola was too diffcult. Life is difficult too, every aspect of life, from school to housemanship, marriage, even surgeries can be crazy sometimes, why have you not quit being a surgeon or even life, abi you do not know how to poison yourself, I could help you, we both know its just an injection away..... call this sham off and get your wife and kids back, you can then, throw a reunion party and I will gladly buy the dress and spray you money but for me to buy aso-ebi for second wife tins in this recession, ogbeni ko le werk!!!!!!!! besides I would not want my husband to do such to me, so I cannot attend and any junior doctor that attends should get ready for me, arrant rubbish, how can people be attending such? encouraging promiscuity mschew..
I had plans to enjoy my day at work by visiting all the social networks I belong too, then this yeye Seun made me dissipate energy on mumu matter, I balanced on my sit and began first with facebook, the network was pretty slow, everyone in my office had time for social matters because for the first time in years we were done with our surgeries for the month and hopefully we would have the remaining days of the month to ourselves, we do not pray for emergency, we sef don taya to dey see blood, we want to watch movies, hang out like regular people even though I still have to read up on some latest discoveries in medicine, learning truly never ends......as I raised up my eyes to see why every one became so quiet, I realised a proposal was about to pass me by, Dr Bassey the cassinova of Africa knelt down and asked a new member of staff, Damola to marry him, infact I thought they had broken up because..........(we would come back to that gist later) it took some minutes before she said YES!!! but she did and we took pictures, Bassey was over joyed, who wouldnt be? Damola is Smart, Pretty, Classy, a fashionista, God-fearing, very sociable infact I wonder why she ever dated Bassey in the first place because I know she is smart enough to spot a 'Calabar demon' anyways its her choice and we were still taking pictures of the couple when we heard.... GBUAIIII!!GBUAIII YOU MUST BE MAD!!!!! that was the next thing we all heard, we all peeped out from the window and alas we saw Dr Tracy smashing Dr Bassey's windscreen with every strength in her, Dr Bassey rushed out and if not for the timely intervention of our security, I would probably be trying to revive him from coma. we all rushed out, I pulled Tracy, collected the stone from her hand and took her into the inner chamber of my office and gave her water to calm down because she has to narrate why she is rehearsing madness abi she wants to terminate her appointment.
Ma, Bassey is a fool, he----he broke up with me to be with Damola, we were dating, then suddenly he shifted attention to her, I confronted him and he said they were just friends and today he had the nerve to get on his knees and buy her a ring!!!!!!!!!!! I cant take it, I had to make him loose something valuable and I am not done with him, how dare him propose to her??? What does he take me for? I shook my head for her in my mind, there are truly three sides to a story, let me tell you the unbiased version. Bassey loves women, you don't need to look deeply before you dig it out, he had even tried to hit on me before, his case is that critical, your wedding ring aint know barrier, then Damola came into the picture and he changed a bit, even though they never admitted to us, they were an item but we knew there was more to the friendship, infact this yeye Tracy girl accused them severally of dating though they denied it, their eyes had a way of saying the truth their lips wanted to hide. Bassey and Tracy had been colleagues for a while and they were never close buddies oooooo, but she and Damola were pretty close, she started to dress well, infact I noticed she changed bra sef so that she can be as trendy as this our fashionista Damola, then suddenly Bassey and Damola were not so close though they managed to exchange pleasantries and madam Tracy was his latest acquisition..... now Bassey's eyes have cleared or maybe he truly misses her and he proposed to the one he loves even though I sincerely think he doesn't deserve her but Tracy deserved the humiliation, infact na wedding Bassey suppose use shock am and then she sits here and narrates the story as if she is the victim, hmmm well, Bassey is the bastard here I agree, but why let yourself be fooled by a bastard? I calmed her down and as usual being my blunt self, I told her the truth she already knew, though it was hard to come to terms with it especially when Bassey was the only guy to ask her out in years..she saw this as her opportunity and decided to maximise it, forgetting that a leopard never changes its spot.
Damola walked in on us, I could see her struggling not to laugh, then she said to her, next time dear, please burn his house or something that would cost him because his insurance company would fix that windscreen in some days.... Tracy annoyingly walked out on us. My expression showed her how worried I was about the ring on her finger, then she whispered to me and said Ma, I only accepted this ring for children purposes, after I get two, he'll get served by my lawyers. I looked at her in amzement, Ma, the man I truly want to be with has fertility issues that only a miracle can make him father. children, so I picked Bassey to father children for him, I know you might say its not fair on him but he too has been unfair to a lot of women, besides he cheated with Tracy and revenge is best served steaming hot, she smiled and walked gracefully back into our open office. I dragged myself to my system and was pondering on stage play that just happened, I finally got to facebook, my darling husband posted a picture of himself at work, one Cynthia commented, curiosity made me check her page and It dawned on me that my husband had named our two daughters after his ex-girlfriend or are they still dating?????????????????????
