Love Me Again

Episode 12

“In marriage find a friend that’s got your back always but won’t break your marriage”

Few hours later, my phone rang and it was my friend Bebe, She promised visiting next Saturday We hardly meet up due to the nature of her job but when Clyde and I were still in good terms,

She comes over,we talk, and we do sleep overs,

Which whenever it’s my turn to sleep over at her end, Clyde will insist to follow me to her end claiming “two are now one” His favorite love chorus which turns me on somehow.

But now what do I get, I thought for a while. Saturday finally came and Bebe brought with her a lot of goodies, Clyde was home, they talked for a while and he excused himself claiming he has lots of work Bebe obviously did not buy that, neither did she buy my story of tripping When I told her about my leg, the reason why I couldn’t come over to her place the next day.

She’s always too smart for my liking.

She knows the Clyde she met would never abandon a visitor of his wife not to talk of her best friend just to attend to work, he always say work can wait Even when he had a million dollar contract to work on then, he still made time for his friends and family

Bebe:Clyde’s Babs, what’s going on here, I smell something fishy

Me:Bebe I don’t keep fish in my sitting room, it could be the odour from your three months Rasta.

We all laughed over it,
I thought I succeeded in changing her mind until she started again

Bebe: seriously Babs, am your friend… tell me what’s going on or I sure will find out

Me: Bebe relax there’s nothing to find out, we are fine

Bebe: Girlfriend you want to kill yourself but I won’t let you, I know what’s going on

Me: Please spare me the nosy attitude of yours,

You know that’s the only thing I don’t like about you right I however know Bebe too well,
When she feels something is wrong she will dig deep until she gets an answer. It’s either i find a nice excuse or she won’t let it slide. I then told her we had a little argument over adoption lately, and I have left him to cool off.

Couples fight, you of all people should understand, You quarrel with Jake your husband all the time over silly stuffs, and how is mine different that I have to be summoned, I finally asked her

Bebe:Common, what I see here is not a little fight,

Besides I know you guys never had a problem with adoption Look,let me just tell you this,I saw your husband somewhere some time ago at first I thought he came with you but by the time I realized he drove away, I saw him again on several occasions And I made some enquiries he frequent there often with different ladies. I didn’t want to cause you any problems here, I came to see things for myself and it hasn’t been easy keeping that to myself

Me: Bebe, what are you talking about, now my heart just dropped into my stomach, I could barely breathe I took a deep breath and asked are you insinuating my Clyde is cheating on me?

Bebe: I didn’t say that, I just told you where I saw him.

I was never going to tell you this but looking at things here, I think you need to know but please don’t confront him Babs, Babs, Babs, are you ohk? Bebe asked several times before I woke out of my reverie,
Then I saw my husband walking pass us to the kitchen I stood up God knows I was going to beat the hell out of him Bebe held me down, he went back upstairs,

Now I had no choice than to narrate everything to my best friend,

We cried together and amidst the tears
I couldn’t help but say continuously I love you Clyde, why are you treating me this way. Bebe stayed for the night, she planned on helping me get my husband back.

Somehow Clyde never came out of his room or has figured I told Bebe something.

We talked a lot, seeing a pastor was out but we resorted on a counsellor.

We finally drifted to sleep.
