The Dog

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 29

My parent we’re never part of my life cos

they abandoned me, my mother tried

coming back into my life but the closeness

wasn’t there anymore, I can’t stand my

mother for 1hr, I can’t even stand my

father at all even stand my father at all even my

siblings. My son and grandmother

was my only family, they were my only

responsibility. My parent and siblings tried

everything to please me but I just don’t

know, there is this distance that I don’t

understand. I don’t hate them, I love them but

there is this disconnection between us, I

was more closer to my grandmother, most

of my new friends even thought she’s my

mother. My grandmother was benefitting

from me, I took care of my grandmother

cos she stood by me, she’s the real mother of my

son but not the biological mother,

the love between my son and my

grandmother is inseparable. I love them

both, they were my happiness and joy, we

lived together, my grandmother lived with

me.

Like I said earlier on, I dated numerous men,

I’ve got to date, cos I need a d–k and I need to

get married cos I wasn’t getting

any younger. The men I dated wanted me

to be their second wife or third wife, I hate

that but it was so hard to get a single guy

to date and marry them. I dated few single

guys but it never ripe into marriage. I dated rich

men of Delta state, I was getting

connections, getting contracts to be

personal hairstylist to some of the big

women in Delta state. It was massive for

me, I finally opened a big beauty and spar

shop in Lagos, I’m a girl so I’ve got to use what I

have to what I want and I played

my game wisely. To cut the long story

short, I have 7 beauty shops, still hoping to

open more. I got married to a rich man

who’s into Oil & Gas and also a Politician in

Delta state, I became a second wife, I don’t have

choice cos I can’t have it all. My life

totally changed, I became more matured.

After 4 years of marriage, I couldn’t

conceive, I couldn’t get pregnant, i tried

everything to get prevent, in even travelled

abroad for medical check up, but nothing was

wrong with me. Assuming i had

aborted my teenage pregnancy, does that

mean I would be barren? Thank God my

father didn’t allow me to abort the

pregnancy, thank God I didn’t marry

Martins either cos if i had married him I’m sure

he would have gotten a second wife, it

would have even been worse if I married

him cos I wouldn’t be able to give him a child

after marriage, only God knows why I

didn’t ended up marrying Martins. Only God

knows if I’m destined to have just one, just a

child, only one child. Who knows?
