shades of marriage finale

Shades of Marriage 🥰😊😔🥺😭 Finale “You think you can get married just like that? I will never allow you”. My Ex called me on phone fuming. “What else do you want from me? You were the one who chased me out of our home. You took over my shop. What else do you want from me?”. I asked. “I don’t want you to be happy. Yes! You don’t deserve it”. He said. “Well, you are not God to decide who should or shouldn’t be happy. Just let me be. Allow me live my life”. I said and ended the call. I blocked his both lines immediately. We started preparing for our traditional marriage. It was scheduled to take place as soon as possible. Since the moment the preparations started, we started having series of attacks. I got to experience sleep paralysis for the first time during this period. This made me so scared of sleeping alone. Austin on the other hand started experiencing setbacks in his work place. A business contract he has already bagged got cancelled without a genuine reason. One of his staffs...

shades of marriage 13&14

Shades of Marriages 🥰😊😔🥺😭 Part 13.&14 “Oh my goodness! What have I done to myself? Am I cursed or something? Why can’t I have a peaceful life for once. God please help me”. I cried bitterly within. I got distracted when my phone started ringing. It was Austin. I quickly and hastily dried my tears. I was warned by his sister not to mention anything to him, else they will take it that I want to divide their family. “Hello dear”. I said feigning happiness. “My love. How are you? Hope you are ok?”. Austin asked. I couldn’t reply immediately because I was trying so hard to control the tears that were protesting to fall from my eyes. “Are you there?”. Austin reiterated. “I’m okay baby. Hope all is well at the office?”. I asked. “Everything is good now. I miss you so bad already”. Austin said. “Lover boy”. I said teasingly. “Is it easy to have a woman like you by my side? Please allow me to love in peace o”. Austin said smiling. One thing about Austin is that he always have a way of ...

Shades of marriage 11&12

Shades of Marriage 🥰😊😔🥺😭 Part 11&12 I sat at the edge of the bed with my phone on my hand. Right in the screen of my phone was Austin’s number. Each time I want to click on the dial icon, my thumb will become too heavy for me to move. I placed my left hand on my tummy and tenderly caressed it. “Darling, everything will be okay. Thank you for coming to mummy”. I said soothingly. I summoned all the courage I had left and dialed Austin’s number. With each beep from the phone, the rate at which my heart beat, increases simultaneously. Voila!! He finally picked the call. My heart stopped beating for a moment. “Hello”. Austin said from the other end of the call. I didn’t realize how much I have missed him until I heard his voice. “Oh.. I have missed him so much”. “Hellooo! Can you hear me”. Austin repeated. I jerked back from my fantasies. “Good… evening”. I stuttered. “Good evening. You finally called”. Austin said. “Oh wow, you have been waiting for me to call you right?”. I said ...

SHADES OF MARRIAGE      Shades of Marriages 🥰😊😔🥺😭 Part 10. “Babe I have fucked up”. I said with tears immediately I got to the house. “Please seat. What happened?”. Faith asked with so much concern. I couldn’t even speak. I was just crying like a baby. Faith didn’t push me to speak. She just watched me with keen interest as I cry my eyes out. When she saw I was done crying, she asked again; “Wetin sup mama?”. “I slept with Austin”. I admitted shamefully. “You dey hot o”. Faith said teasingly with her both hands raised up. “Stop jor”. I said whilst blushing. “She even dey blush o”. Faith said and then burst into laughter. “You know I hate you right”. I said feigning anger. “No vex abeg. How e take happen”. Faith asked. I told her how it all happened, down to when my husband called and the altercation I had with Austin. She got really furious. “What does that husband of yours want from you? Is it your life? Is he high or something”. Faith said angrily. “Calm down babe”...

Shades of marriage 8&9

Shades of Marriage 🥰😊😔🥺😭 Part 8&9 “Do you mean this house is mine?”. I asked teary. Austin moved closer to where I was standing and placed his left hand on my shoulder. He brought out a white handkerchief from his pocket with his right hand and wiped my tears with it. “You won’t even stay here till the end of this year. I just want you to manage here for now “. Austin said. “When did you start planning this “. I asked. “From the moment I saw how your husband… Sorry, your EX husband humiliated you”. Austin said. “Why are you making me fall for you effortlessly?”. I asked. Austin let out a very loud laugh. He moved away from where I was and gave me a mischievous stare. “And why are you making my heart beat faster than usual right now?”. I asked as I walked towards him. Austin moved to where I was and grabbed me by waist. For a moment, my heart stopped beating. I felt movements of butterflies in my tummy. Austin moved his face closer to mine. At this moment, my knees became too w...

shades of marriage 5-7

Shades of Marriage 🥰😊😔🥺😭 Part 5,6&7 I just sat down crying as Austin declared his intentions to me. He looked so serious and sounded resolutely. “You know my situation I guess”. I stuttered. “Yes, I do”. Austin answered. “I don’t even know my status at all. I don’t know if I am still married or not. You saw what my husband did to my shop right? He is just like that. He is very swift to anger and won’t stay still until he leaves you frustrated. I appreciate your feelings for me but I don’t think I can entertain it for now”. I said firmly. “I am not forcing you at all. I don’t even expect you to accept me immediately. I just wanted to let you know. I don’t want to ever miss my chance of being with you… I want you”. Austin said assertively. I just sat down staring at him. My husband sounded like this when we first started if not better. He was all over me and was very caring. We were both in love and I thought what we had would last forever till he he took me to see his parents a...

Shades of marriage 3&4

Shades of Marriages 🥰😊😔🥺😭 Part 3.&4 I was still crying inside my neighbors house when Faith called me that she was outside already. I cleaned my eyes up and went out to meet her. My plan was to carry a bold and confident face and not show weakness but immediately I saw Faith and her husband, I broke into tears. Faith hurriedly came to where I was and buried my head in her arms. “Cry it out baby. Don’t fight the tears, let it all out”. Faith said. I burst into a very loud cry. I couldn’t control it. The more I tried to control, the more louder it got. “You deserve the best baby. I know it for sure”. Faith said calmly. She allowed me cry for over 20mins while her husband waited patiently inside the car. “Let’s start going, I don’t want to keep your husband waiting”. I said whilst trying to hurry up. “Calm down. You know Chidi is the most patient man on earth”. She passed a loving glance at her husband. “Are you trying to make me jealous?”. I said jokingly. “You know it’s a fact”...

Shades of marriage 2

Shades of Marriage 🥰😊😔🥺😭 Part 2 Three days to the marriage, my husband’s immediate younger brother, Obioma arrived the village with his wife and their two kids. Mama couldn’t hide her excitement. She was all over Chioma, Obioma’s wife. “My sweet wife! Asam! Omalicha!”. Mama kept on eulogizing Chioma. I felt a sharp pain in my chest. I can’t remember the last time mama praised me like this. I just kept on watching the show of love with so much pain and didn’t even realize tears were already dropping from my eyes. I quickly got hold of myself and joined them in the palour. “Welcome sir”. I said kneeling in front of my brother in-law. “Thank you”. He said patting my back. I went to where Chioma was seated and greeted her. I played with the kids for a while before I excused myself and went back to the kitchen. “Where is this girl? Don’t she know she’s supposed to carry your luggages to your room. This is why I don’t like her. She can’t think with her brain. Elizabeth! Elizabeth o. LIZ...

Shades of marriage 1

Shades of Marriage 🥰😊😔🥺😭 Part 1 Family is considered to be one of the most important association of every individual. A family is where warmth is felt, tears gets wiped off, bruises gets tended to and loneliness gets tackled. But is this true for all families??? I sat in the the bus melancholic and somewhat depressed. I wish I had a choice to decline embarking on this journey. “How do I tell my husband that I don’t feel like traveling to his parents house?”. My husband is the first child of 5 children, three boys and two girls. They are all married except for the youngest daughter who will be getting married in two weeks time. This explains why I am traveling. My mother in-law insisted that I travel down to the village two weeks earlier to assist with the marriage preparations. The Bride herself was still in the city because of work but my husband and his family wants me to travel to the village for God knows why. I sat on this 18seaters bus wishing for heavy traffic so I won’t ge...

The scar 9&10

THE SCAR: [The Kids Are Watching] (Episode 9) Healing and deliverance mostly happens to those who first acknowledge that they have a problem and need help. Until a person genuinely wants something dearly, they never really get it except they are lucky. For the first time ever, Derrick was broken and needed help to heal his childhood scars that was greatly affecting his life. The fact that he asked Naya to help him through his healing journey was truly a good sign that he was sober and genuinely needed help. Glory be to God! At last, the monster in human flesh was tired of letting his traumatising childhood experience detect his present reality. It was truly a thing of joy for a day like that to come in the life of this couple whom has been through hell since they got married. At this point, it’s safe to say that Naya was truly an angel to Derrick because she never truly gave up on him and their love; otherwise, she wouldn’t care to lend a helping hand to her deranged husband. That day ...
