Where is the guy I married?
Episode 4

I shook from head to toes.
Dave has finally succeeded in killing me!
Everything he is babbling about could be
handled by a Christian wife perhaps but
not me! My faith hasn’t reached that level
yet.

He has been disgusted by his wife of just
one year to the extent that he resorted to
watching porn and probably masturbating.
Now, he says there are more confessions.
He has an affair out of wedlock? Then I
will leave him, forever!
He has a child outside?
Jesus, what would I do? I will kill myself
He has multiple baby mamas?
Ah! I will kill him, then precious Blossy,
then myself.
“Liz, easy! Take it easy” The Holy Spirit
started speaking again.
I reversed and sat on the bed. My two legs
couldn’t bear the shock anymore. They
started hitting each other.
I started having a mild chest pressure. I
could feel air struggling to pass through
my bronchi.

Another attack is looming! But abeg, let
asthma stay aside.
As I let out a very dry cough and started
wheezing, Dave rushed to me, tears still on
his face.
“Liz, I am sorry. Should I get you your
inhaler?” He asked me.
I saw concern on his face but my health
isn’t the most important now. it’s the
issue on ground.
“Tell me what you have to say to me then
I will decide either to die or live” I wheezed
on and on.

Dave made an attempt to hold me round
the shoulders but I refused the offer.
My chest was on fire. It was burning so
fiercely.
“Since, its death you want me to die, I’ll
say yes! I will die but before I go, tell me
what you have to tell me” I forced the
words out of my mouth.
It wasn’t convenient sitting down any
longer, so I knelt with my chest on the bed
if that would ease my pains.
It intensified.

“Lizzy, I can’t tell you anything at this
point. Please” He was saying with great
concern on his face.
I threw him a dangerous look with my
mouth suspended as I struggled for air
“Then, there would be problem. Tell me
now or there would be problem in this
house” I threatened
“Ok then. Liz, please be well first. At least,
use your inhaler first. I know how you
feel.” He was saying but his preaching
didn’t go well with me as I struggled to
shift from the bed, caught him by his two
legs and onto the bed he fell. He was
somewhat shocked at my sudden power. I
pulled him down the bed and held him by
the neck. He looked at me with great fear.
“Will you talk now?” I wheezed on.
He nodded like an agama lizard.
I loosened my grip on his neck and he
prostrated face down before me.
“My wife! My lovely wife! I know my God
will keep you for me but please don’t die!
Please don’t die my dear. I can’t imagine
living in this world without you. Please” He
cried on and on

“Ohhhh! Dave, come on, talk!” I gave out
the command as if my time on earth is
already measured and almost up.
“I didn’t have an affair outside our
marriage nor do I have any child out of
wedlock. You are the first woman I would
meet and Blossom is the first and only
child I have” he said and I tried to be calm
but my wheezing didn’t agree with me. I
heaved a sigh of relief though.
“So, can I get you your inhaler?” He asked,
still very concerned about me.
I nodded in the affirmative and he brought
it to me. He signaled for me to open my
mouth and I obeyed.
As he delivered the dose into my airways
while holding my nose, a tear ran down my
face. He saw it, looked into my face,
cleaned it and hugged me tightly as if his
life depended on it.
I needed the hug badly. It really helped me
to calm down. I wheezed on and on till it
totally subsided. With my head still on his
chest, I let out a deep breath.
“I am okay now” I said as I cleared my
throat
He withdrew and stood up from his sitting
position. He helped me to sit down on the
bed. Then, he took few steps backwards
and sat in the armchair.
“Lizzy! Whatever I say here today requires
your anger, your tears, your
disappointment but please whatever I have
done does not worth your tears. You are
too precious for those” he said, tears
welling up in his eyes.
I was too weak to say anything so I just
nodded as tears welled up in my eyes too.
“It all started in the third trimester of your
pregnancy. You were not too strong and
all and my mother came to take you to her
place for 3 weeks. I really missed you and
I was always coming over to check on
you.” He shook his head, bowed his head
and breathed out so loudly.
I could only watch on.
“Those 3 weeks were like numerous years
to me. But before then, all sexual activities
between us had come to an end. You were
in a pitiable condition. Eventually, three
weeks to giving birth, you were admitted
in the hospital and I was also busy with
the end of the year reports in the office.
Mum went for checkup in America and
your mum was in France with her ailing
mother. They had to employ Dorcas, you
cousin to come over here to provide food
for you and I”
He stopped and covered his face with his
hands. He sniffed wetly and continued.
My heart started racing as if a thousand
soldiers were in pursuit of it.
“It had always been like that until a
particular day, three days before Blossom
was born. I was in the Hospital parking
lot. My head was on the steering. I was
not too happy about the medical report
that the baby was still breech.” He said
again while I watched on. I was scared
than ever before.
What then happened?
“Just then, a hand touched my shoulder. I
was scared but I looked up anyway. It
was Dorcas. She smiled and I smiled too,
as per, my wife’s cousin showing me care.
Then her hand travelled to my chest and
she asked subtly, almost seductively ‘How
have you been coping?’ I looked up at her
and saw the dangerous look on her face. I
was scared and threw her hand away”
Dave stood up and moved to the window
side, his arms akimbo. I followed every of
his gestures and movements.
“Then, she looked straight as if she was
hurt. ‘I was only trying to be nice’ she
said and I looked at her with concern that
what does a fifteen year old girl knows?
She started crying that I misunderstood
her. I stretched out my hand to pat her
back when she came close and placed her
head on my chest…” he continued and I
just couldn’t believe my ears.
My heart started pumping as I brought the
story to life in my imagination.
“Then she asked me so seductively ‘don’t
you want me as much as I do?’ that was
when I knew that it was a dangerous trap.
I pushed her off me, opened the door of
my car, closed the door and then leaned
against the car. It was a real temptation
but I didn’t know what to do. I put her in
a taxi and I drove home locking the door
of my room. I couldn’t believe what
happened to me” he said again.
The realization dawned on me. My
husband was seduced by my cousin while
I was away!
I started feeling the pangs of attack in my
chest again. It tightened the more but I
fought it.
I gat to listen to this story to the end!
“Liz, when I got to the room, I knelt down
to pray against it all but the thought
started coming to my head. I couldn’t
resist it. I prayed and cried to God but my
dear, I was weak. That night, she sent me
one of her nude pictures and that was
how everything started. I sent her a text
message that she should not allow God’s
wrath upon her for sending that kind of
picture but instead of deleting it, I started
mesmerizing myself with it. Every day, she
sent more and more and though I never
allowed her close to me, I anticipated
more of the nude pictures every day.” He
sat down again and supported his chins
with his palms as tears rolled down his
face.
My wheezing had started but I tried to
suppress it so the story teller wont end his
account.
“Dear, I was forced to barge in on her one
day while she was bathing. She was very
happy to see me and she signaled for me
to come closer. I ran out of her bathroom
but the picture remained in my head for a
long time”
“Jesus!” I cried out with pain.
My tears were as hot as a hot pack
against my face as they streamed down.
He cried too but continued.
“You were discharged and I looked forward
to meeting you as a husband to a wife but
your stitched tummy couldn’t allow me.
Then, I resorted to watching porn and
masturbating” he said and fell on his
knees.
“Ah! Oh God!” I cried out. I didn’t know
who to get angry at.
Myself for getting sick, God for making me
pregnant with serious discomfort, Cousin
Dorcas that seduced my husband, or Dave
that was only responding to human urge
since his wife was not available.
Who should I get angry at? I cried and
cried.
Dorcas!
Devilish Dorcas!!
Demonic Devilish Dorcas!!!
I fell into the bad and cried very hard.
“God, why couldn’t you keep my husband
for me?” I asked on and on.
I was embittered and very angry.
As I pulled at the pillow angrily, the stress
was too much for my little heart.
I wheezed harder and phew! I passed out!!
I was flushed down through a pipeline or
sort. I saw thick darkness as if i could
touch it.
Where am i?
Am i dead?
Where is Dave?
