"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 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

  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

 *******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

    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
