Love Me Again

Episode 6

“Egos are deal breakers, don’t carry them with you everywhere”

In the second week, i heard a knock on my door in the middle of the night and it was Barbara

Babs: Clyde please open the door

Me: What do you want, am not in the mood for s*x. We can talk in the morning.

Babs: Look am sorry about what happened out there last week, I shouldn’t have spoken to you that way.

And I want you to know I love you so much and if I had to cut off my male friends because of you I will. Besides I did the last time you saw us over a friendly dinner, just to save my marriage. That was the last i saw or heard of Livie, so whoever you saw with him recently wasn’t me.

I kept quiet for a long time and since I wasn’t hearing her voice anymore i assumed she had left.

I made it a point to avoid her that morning like i have been doing for the past week, hence skipping breakfast

From then, we were always at each other’s throat, well basically I was always at her throat. I do eat what she cooks, but we barely communicated.

I then decided to move back in our bedroom when my mum informed me she was coming over but couldn’t make it

I know my mum wouldn’t hesitate to take my side when she comes
My mum, Mrs Obi is the best mum ever, not because she takes my side but even as the only son she knows how and when to rebuke me.
