I thought I was in a trance but lo and behold Chief’s daughters and his son, and I couldn’t really figure out who the last person was until I heard “Ahhh…… Romoke…… I would! (you)…. I will deal with you today…. Husband snatcher!”. It was my madam, meanwhile Chief was shielding me from his daughters while Ayo stood watching me with hatred and his father with jealousy. Meanwhile, after madam said those statements and ran towards the kitchen, I quickly gathered my danfo skirt and scampered for safety. I ran out of their compound, out of the Abayomi’s home, and out of their lives.

“Romoke, how was the service” I was brought back to reality by my boo Dimeji. He is a Sunday school teacher in church and also a primary school teacher, we have been dating for 7 years now but nothing to show for it, he is so stingy, never even bought a top or given me money to cook for him before as I always satisfy him with my own money all I hear is the same song (that even the church Council must not hear every year) of “Romoke don’t worry, we will get married at God’s appointed time let me get promoted first” he would say. Even when he got promoted, he forgot about his promises and always convinced me to sleep with him and get pregnant for him first, but who was he even trying to fool?

“It was fine, we thank God ”

“So how far, how are you doing now?” He smiled revealing his brown set of teeth, but what was he even smiling for, by the time I break the news to him he will close his mouth.”

“I’m good, thank you” I said, twisting my mouth sideways. We stepped out of the church and were walking slowly, he breathed slightly and said “Romoke, I was expecting you to come to my house yesterday but you didn’t, the last soup you made for me has even finished and you know you are a good cook” he winked at me. This guy has really taken me for a fool, I said to myself.

“Look Dimeji, I am tired of this hide and seek. When are we getting married?” he stopped to face me, looking around he said : “haba……Romoke, I told you to get pregnant for me first”

“well I can’t, I can’t sleep with you now until I’m married to you. Dimeji how many times will I tell you that am keeping myself for my husband?” I was already angry and was raising my voice. He was quite surprised at my outburst then he tried acting cool he said “don’t worry, I will marry let’s just do it, so that you can get pregnant first, I love you oooo I’m serious now”. He smiled again, “does he even think I’m joking?” I got more offended instead.

“Dimeji you are such a fool, you don’t deserve me at all”. He was shocked and he tried to touch my arms but I waved him off.[adinserter name=”Block 3″][adinserter name=”Block 2″]

“Look, I am jobless, I’m not schooled, I keep on getting empty promises from you, look enough is enough. Dimeji I want to move forward without you “. He shook his head and was already vibrating cause I could see his clenched fist and his eyes were getting red.

Before I knew what was happening he slapped me, this was not the first or second time that he would do that. He slapped me and walked away. I called out to him “you ingrate! I hate you! Beast!”. I was hurt, and embarrassed, I was itching to slap him back but he had already gone. I held my right ear with my hand and walked back home. “Bloody idiot”! I said aloud even though he had already walked out of my sight.
