writer of the story

I am 44 years, a mother of one and pregnant. Life has been both sweet and better for me, sometimes, I loose the interest to live and on many occasions, I had all the reason in the whole world to live. My first child, was a girl, she just met her father. I am pregnant for the same man who has refused to talk to me for about six years, his parents detested me, so the left me and now am sad.

I have not stopped wondering why misfortune picked on me , I lost my parents in a fire accident when I was 5years old. Before the incident I stayed with my parents in Lagos. After the burial I stayed back in my village with my grandparents because no one agree to take me, instead they give excuses that they had a lot of responsibility.

Surprisingly I enjoyed my shot time with my grandparents. She cared for me and get worried so much about what would become of me if anything happens to her though I never understood what she meant. Four years ago death snatched her away from me. I was devastated and cried all day because during the short staying with her we develop an inseparable bond , so, I lived alone in our small hut for two months, before a good Samaritan came to my rescue, her name was aunty Amina, she carried me to her house, the we're nice to me, so my aunty husband became hostile and asked his wife to send me away which she did for the sake of her marriage, but she didn't allow me to walk on the street she gave me out to her friends who stays in Lagos too but very far from her home. Two years later aunty Amina's friend traded me to another woman to another woman compared with my old home and family, Mrs john was Angel.

She had a lovely family. Her husband was a nice man and also a through believer with the fear of God . They had two Preeti daughters, they were the little siblings I never had. They were very helpful, we did the house choice together, we do eat in the same plate, there parents bought the same dress for us, and we attended the same school which was one of the best schools.

One year later Mr and Mrs John had to relocate, so me and the kids were handed over to her younger sister who just got married. She promised to take good care of us, although she did. She and her husband was very nice to me, the husband name is uncle Daniel, he's a pilot and so he travels a lot, leaving me and aunty anita most of the time, living with her was fun . We had special bond right from the first time we met. Mabel, Rachel and I spent one holiday with auntie Anita before she got married. Soon she got me enrolled in a school and also got me a private tutor to help me as well. Three years later I got the biggest shocked that my ' new mom ' and her husband were moving to us , I was afraid that I might not fall into a good and nice family this time. But I was relleved when Mr Daniel came to my room with his wife to show me my international passport, that is to say that I will go with them to us. My joy knew no bound I was very excited.

I was enrolled in school immediately we arrived at us. Life was sweet. Aunty anita gave birth to a set of twins girls . It was one of the magical moment we had. I met a dazzling, chocolatey, tall and handsome young man while in college, we dated for a short time, and soon I was heart broken, but thanks to aunty Amina, she brought me to focus first on my education which is my priority and at the right time I will be free for relationship.

After graduation I got a job with a law firm in another city. I visited my aunty and her family once in a while, I met Raymond, uncle Daniel's distances relatives, on the 10th birthday anniversary of the twins, we got married and after a short relationship, we wedded , and traveled from New York City to Canada,where my husband and Raymond lived. Raymond was a business tycoon, a cool guy with ambition and he was lovely.

After 3years of marriage, we had no baby to show. My mother in-law will always call to ask if I have missed my piriod. At first she was nice and understanding but suddenly she changed her mind and she started to be so aggressive. Soon she came visiting just because of me and when she came it was really tough. She asked me how many abortion have I carried out in the past that is stoping you from having children. but I explained to her that Raymond was the first person who has seen my nakedness. So she relaxed . But not quite long, she became really Nasty, and she refused visiting us and also refuse taking my calls. My sweet words began to turn soured, when Raymond got an appointment back home in Nigeria, so I stayed behind but we did visit each other. Nobody could explain what the problem was, all the test carried out were positive and it even state that you can have as many children as we wished to , but the reversed is the case. My mother in-law could no longer wait and my absence was very advantageous. She had secretly married another wife for my husband, weeks after I returned to Canada for Christmas holiday, my phone rang and it was aunty Anita's daughter Mabel she asked me to make sure I was in Nigeria by Saturday and when I asked why , she just asked me to be in Nigeria.

I was confused, so I came home not knowing the reason. So Mabel came to pick me at the airport and we took a car to my mom's in-law place. And getting to the gate she asked me to go and witness what was going on why she wait for me in the carb. I took a few hurried step and started to slow down shaking not knowing what to expect. Finally I was in the compound, a naming ceremony was taking place, I joined the crowd unnoticed just why the officiating minister has the father to tell the name of the baby. My husband was holding a baby with a young lady besides him, they were dress the same attires facing the guest. Raymond was stuck pronouncing the name of the new baby at the he saw me. The crowd was at loss at Raymond sudden stammer, they senced the direction of distraction, and all turned towards me. Just then, I began to walk away. Raymond drop the child and ran after me, he kept shouting my name, telling me whether we could start the relationship over again. I felt betrayed and lonely. That was what happened.

So, we broke up , just because I couldn't give birth to a child, although it was painful but he didn't love me as he said , so he got married with another woman. So I traveled back to Canada, although I was having issue with my house rent and I didn't have any money with me, but I went into trade business, trading goods to different countries . I met a friend, I was older than him , his name was Roland he was so nice to me, he gave me all my need , he paid my house rent. But I was wondering why he's doing all this for me, because I am much older than him but he keep doing all this for me, he showed me his parents and all his siblings. So, few weeks later he invited me to the hotel, I went to the hotel and he told me his mind, that he love me I was like thanks, then he hug me and kissed me till my lips get wet, after then I saw myself on the bed with him, I ran away from the room refuse to receive his calls and message, because I was afraid to fall in that same trap. He kept calling me, I refuse picking his calls, till my friend Tammy told me that Roland is worried about me.

So I went to see him ,as I went there the mother was there, she was very annoyed and angry, I was afraid, as I came to see him, he told me that if only I will accept him, the sickness will go away, the mother rush and beg me to leave his son alone, that am too big to marry her son, she said I should promise her not to marry her son, so I left there immediately, and I went to Canada , as I was there I noticed that I was pregnant for 4months something I have never had before, I was shocked, although it wasn't easy but my aunty made it easy me , aunty Amina kept helping me, till I gave birth to a baby girl, she was beautiful like Roland. So Tammy called me that Roland is about to die. So I rush with my daughter to Nigeria, immediately I reach the house, my mother in-law could not allow me to greet her , she rushed me and was very happy with me , and I went to see Roland, as I went inside I saw him sleeping, I woke him up, immediately he woke up and was very happy with me, so I told him that I was sorry for everything that happened, immediately he knee down and started crying that he's sorry for everything that happened.

So we were happy, few weeks later we got married and he was Thanking me for giving him his life back. So as we got married life, life appeared to me as nothing but bitter sweet, no matter anything you pass through in life, just believe God , the sweetest part of it will come. This is the end of my story. thanks for viewing my post
