Love Me Again

Episode 5

“Trust is like a pencil, when the edge gets broken, you can sharpen it to a point, but once it gets to the extreme where there is nothing left to sharpen; you lose everything or you tell yourself I got to keep trusting”

I remember I came home one evening and I yelled!

Me: Babs where were you today

Babs: Darling I have been home doing your laundry all day

Me: Are you lieing to me right now

Babs: For Christ’s sake Clyde, have I ever lied to you? And where is this coming from

Me: I saw you at Mr. Biggs today with Dr. Livie, your gynecologist.

Me: how many times have I warned you not to see him again, not as a friend or your gynaeo?

Me: Answer me Babs, Come here! I dragged Barbara by her hair to my face

Babs: Clyde you are hurting me, besides I already told you I was not out today, neither do I have anything doing with Livie. Ask Mrs Ibe nextdoor, she was doing laundry outside as well

Me: Oh you guys are now on an informal name basis

Babs: You are reacting for no reason, call Livie and ask him when was the last time he saw me and Clyde what point of I love you and you are my husband so I see no other man do you not understand. Every day you seem to have all sort of allegations about Livie and me, to the point of changing my number.

What’s wrong with you? Is this what I travelled so many miles for? Am pretty sure this is not only about Livie anymore. Until you are ready to tell me what it is about, I will be waiting but for now do what pleases you. I am fully aware, am still so much in love with my husband, his grunts, and sense of jealousy these days I must admit make me feel I am losing him slowly but I also knew I have to let it be.

Time will reveal and heal everything

Me: Are you talking to me like that. We exchanged words for a while and I ended up not eating that evening and I took over the guest room for a week.
