*MR LECTURER* Episode 26 _& 27 “the most difficult thing i see in your list of demands is meeting your parents. Am i supposed to meet them?. Do i meet them as what?. An inlaw, your friend or what?” i slowly asked, cutting short her joy. “don’t worry about that. I’ll first talk to them before you show up. All i want is just for u to show your face to them” she answered after a little hesitation. “okay i think this coming Sunday will be free for me. It will be on Sunday then” i announced quietly. Her eyes lit up once again. “thanks for changing your mind. Thanks for doing the right thing” she said softly, standing up to leave. I quickly looked away & avoided her eyes. She left without another word. I couldn’t help but think of my own parents that moment. There wasn’t any doubt i needed telling them my story before some else does the task for me. I badly needed their support to pull through my current crises. I was very sure they would stand by my side even though i destroyed the family name with my randy behaviour. “God help me” i sobbed once again. I headed home by 4pm after a very difficult work day. One thing about academic work is that no matter your state of mind you must do the work u are paid to do or risk being sanctioned by the head of department whose job could equally be at risk over any unprofessional behaviour from a lecturer under his authority. I had no choice than to struggle with my job even though the state of my mind was far from being normal. I headed home very hungry, tired and emotionally drained. I was already badly missing my wife. I just didn’t know how to win her back, moreover her father has already threatened me & i knew her mum would probably do more than just threaten me as well. I was thinking about all these as i walked into my apartment which was surprisingly unlocked. I walked in cautiously, thinking perhaps i failed to lock the entrance door as i hurried out earlier in the day but as i got to my bedroom i saw my wife packing up the rest of her things in a big travelling bag. I was very surprised to see her because she was the last person i expected to see in my apartment, moreover her car wasn’t in the car park. “gracious me!” i exclaimed, startling her with my outburst. She turned and faced me while i rushed & hugged her, throwing her into another wave of Surprise. “please don’t go. Don’t leave me. I beg of you” i pleaded with all my heart. -:-:-:-:-:-:-: Episode 27 “please don’t leave me. I need your love to survive. I need your presence in my life” i poured out while she stared at me with eyes filled with tears. “when someone you love misbehaves, no u don’t push him into the fire to burn because the fire not only burns him but burns your soul as well. I’m dying out of grief. Don’t let me die sweetheart” i begged, pushing her to the greatest depth of sympathy with my pleas. Of course she loves me, but the love & anger in her were battling for supremacy. The house she was about leaving was equally hers as well. She drew back and sat on the bed, covering her eyes with her palms. “i beg of you sweetheart, just do anything to me but don’t walk away from my life. I badly need your shoulder to lean on” i begged passionately. “If only she will change her mind, perhaps my future will take a new better shape” i reasoned. We all know a divided house never stands for long & I had a lot to benefit if she decides staying by my side. “i love you. You very well know i love you. But i can’t stay in a house where my husband is having a child with another woman. It’s not as if i have a child of my own to manage. I can never be happy with that reality and i’m no fool my love, i can’t ruin my life by chasing shadows. It’s already obvious to me that i can’t have a child, so the best thing is to leave and find a way to be happy. I can’t block you from having children through another woman. Yes i’m angry with you but i’m not leaving your house out of anger but just as the right thing to do” she poured out with tears dropping from her eyes. “but it’s you i want. I don’t need children to be happy. Our marriage is still too young for this” i pleaded solemnly. She cleaned her eyes, stood up and breathed deeply. “i don’t think we will be seeing again. I’ll try my best to avoid your path. You can get back the money you spent on my head through my father” she said softly. “nooo” i breathed, grabbed & kissed her with quivering lips. She didn’t protest nor break away from me, instead stared into my eyes as if she saw something in them. “i wish u well my love, but i’m leaving” she said softly. “that’s cool, i leave with you. I go wherever you go” i said seriously, cleaning my eyes. She drew back & stared at me with surprise. “you can’t be serious?” she asked. “try me” i answered with all seriousness. “nothing is tearing us apart, nothing in this earth” i concluded, leaving her gasping with shock. To Be continued.. Im not so impressed with d low turn-up from episode 25,seems ure geting bored:-(
