"We have to get rid of the pregnancy" Kene added, staring at me.
I felt so angry, sad and numb. So many emotions, that I couldn't describe. I felt terrible, this wasn't the man I loved, how could he say that.
"Can you hear yourself clearly?" I asked, fuming in anger.
"Are you even making sense? Why would you say that? Did I get myself Pregnant? I can't believe this" I shouted, fighting back the tears that threatened to fall.
"Mr Adams was right. I'm sorry I never thought of it. I was too carried away, I wasn't expecting you to... to... It's just too soon" he said, feeling frustrated.
"We can't put you both in danger, we won't be able to save you both if something goes wrong. It's too risky Sewa and you know you have to do the transplant" he said, trying hard to persuade me.
"I don't care, I'm keeping my baby no matter what. I can

I woke up this morning with a bitter taste in my mouth, I licked five cubes of the St Louis Sugar, even though it was the most craziest thing to do, I just wanted to get rid of the bitterness in my mouth. Kene kept trying to make me talk to him, but trust me I don't have time to waste.The operation got cancelled, Dr Bailey actually made us understand how difficult it was to put two lifes in danger. A risk he advised us not to carry. 'Enjoy your baby, babies are gifts to the world' those were his words to me.I made up my mind to go to work today, at least I won't be home when my mother in law arrives with her trouble. She might have helped in picking my wedding gown, but she was still not comfortable with me being partially deaf. And now that I'm deaf, I don't want to imagine what she was going to do. She might probably turn the house down. Isn't it too early for her to visit? I mean we ju

I saw a boy and a girl in a compromising situation, the tall guy kept trying to wrap his arms around the girl's waist, but the girl kept trying to push him off. I looked closer again, only to discover she was a Junior student. The guy's lips suddenly met with the girls lips."We die here " a deep voice, shouted.Oh there were still more people inside, no wonder the door of the classroom was closed."Kiss of life" another person shouted.Oh my goodness."Lips sucking organism. Segelulu please take it easy" a tiny voice said.Haa... that's the voice of the punctuality prefect boy. I got deceived by his innocent looks sha"It remains bed oo.... " a feminine voice piped in."The forbidden fruit " another voice said.The girl was able to pull away, with

After my mother in law left, the atmosphere immediately changed. It was like she was crazy or something."She is not always like this" Kene said, snapping me from my thoughts."She was always sweet to me back then" I replied, rubbing my forehead with my palm."It's like.... " I paused, biting my lower lip."She has been jazzed" Kene completed, walking towards me."What's wrong with you? " he asked removing my hands from my forehead, making sure to place a kiss on my head."It's just a slight headache" I replied, biting my lower lip nervously.I was already getting frustrated and fed up, I just couldn't place my emotions."There's something on your mind" he said, tugging my lip from my teeth."Are you going to...?" I asked, sighing.

Eight months later****I woke up this morning to the noise from Baba Chidera's children. He was the new security guard, we had to give the young man and his family the boys squatters to live in. And the noise that comes from Chidera and his younger ones are out of this world. Those children could shout a lot, I giggled remembering the last time I heard their conversations. They were waiting for madam, that's me of course, to give birth so they can eat jollof rice, fried rice and big meat. Well I will be due in two weeks time, so they won't have to wait long.I couldn't do most things myself, cause of my huge baby bump, I can't even see my feet, my protruding stomach stopped me from doing even the tiniest thing. I had to always call my husband to put on my panties for me and it really sucks, he cleans me up and dresses me up. He also doesn't fail to taunt me with every help he renders. I also didn't f

Today being a Saturday morning, I decided to just walk round the house. The baby was due anytime soon and I was fully ready, I can't wait for my princess to see the world, she has been reacting to her dad's voice and making a lot of movements anytime she senses him.Everyone in the family already made their personal presumptions, Kene kept insisting we were having a boy. My father-in-law presumption was a scary type."You had better not be a set of sextuplets" I said out loud, tapping my huge bump.'Do you want to build a snowman' I heard my phone ring, Kene kept calling me childish for using that as my ringtone, but hey people! Christmas was almost here, why shouldn't I want to build a snowman? and those yuletide Carol's are kind of soothing to the mind.I picked up my phone to check the caller, Dumbi?Like why was he calling? Has he found o

*******I still felt the guilt of using my late mum as a bait for making Uchechi spill and dad almost spoilt the plan.That old man..... I thought, wagging my fingers in the air."I'm sorry mum" I muttered under my breath, resting my head against the head rest in the Uber car.I was surprised it was the same Uber that came this morning that also came to pick me up at my dad's house. This world is small as people will always say.He dropped me right in front of my house, but not without making his own assumptions that I was going to give birth to twins. He also made sure he gave me his personal number, so as to get invited for naming ceremony.I got down from the car slowly and carefully, holding on to my big baby bump.I was surprised to see a Gold coloured Nissan jeep, very close to the gate. I walked fast, not really fast but

"Does it hurt?" he asked, looking concerned."Go get the car keys you idiotic fool," I shouted. Breathing heavily."Calm down woman." he said, running to get the keys and the baby's things hopefully.I kept groaning and blowing hot air out of my mouth as I waited for him."Where are the baby things?" I cried out, when I saw only the car keys with him."I will go get them." he shouted, running back to the same direction he came from.*******"We have to remove her hearing aids," I heard the doctor say to Kene."And how am I supposed to hear? you ugly fool?" I shouted."You won't be able to focus on the sounds when the pain hits you Mrs ""Then how is she meant to know when to push?" Kene asked the doctor.&n

Two days later******I wasn't discharged yet, the doctor insisted on monitoring I and my babies. Even though we were good to go.Kene was here with me in the room, he got us the most expensive room in the hospital, as Sharon called it. Strictly VIP(Very important people). I chuckled as I felt his lips on my neck.I was sitting in between his legs on the bed, with his arms wrapped around my waist.Our babies were fast asleep in their cribs, which was placed at a corner in the room. They were beautiful than any other babies I've ever seen before. I could watch them sleep for hours. The cute little snubs of their nose which I couldn't resist kissing anytime I breastfeed or check up on them. Their eyelashes so long that they met the curve of their cheeks."My breast is so full and sore." I whined.&nb
