Episode 6 : Old Flames Rekindled
I arrived at my friends place in the evening, she was wondering what could have brought me to her place…
It was already evening…. And I did not plan on going back to meet Jason and Sonia..
What is going on this time Nancy, Bridget said offering me a glass of wine 🍷
Nothing serious, just Jason and his woman,
His woman?? She asked.
Yeah, she came and I needed to give them space..
You are not giving them space Nancy, you’re jealous..
Jealous?? Of who?? Sonia and jays relationship?? Hell no!! I wanted them to spend time together without me being a distraction..
How about Alex?
He broke up with me, these few months of getting married to Jayson has been soo irritating and bad for me…
From canceling my wedding with Alex, forcing Jayson on me, stopping my work, getting heart broken…. I’m just tired babe.
I really want to leave Jaysons life for good..
Is he a bad person??? I mean Jason.
He’s too controlling….always talks about the debt payment stuff, he even went as far as saying he married me for free….
I can imagine what is happening in that house now,, He couldn’t even respect me.. bringing his girlfriend to the house all the time really pisses me off…
You can actually tell her to leave, you’re married to Jason and you shouldn’t tolerate that…. It’s getting late… are you sleeping over?
Yes I am…..Jason doesn’t call or look for me when I’m not in his house, he only talks when I’ve gone back.
He has a woman in his house so he won’t really bother..
I miss Alex…. How do I leave without him???
He’s living without you… you should live without him and focus on yourself.. if you feel you still want to leave Jason you can involve a lawyer… it will be very easy for you..
That’s a great idea, I have a lawyer friend, I’ll call him tomorrow…Jayson is calling me.
Nancy, where are you?? Jason said.
What’s wrong ? Why??
I said, where are you Nancy?
I’m in my fathers house..
You’re lying….
I’m not, I left the house to my parents house…
I’m with your parents and they said they haven’t seen you… did you go meet Alex??
Why are you looking for me?? Are you done with Sonia???? Jason I gave you space’. So don’t bother looking for me..allow me live my life.. stop this please .
Nancy, I’m calm because I really want to know the exact place you’re so I can come there and take you home..
Stop calling me Jason.. I’m already sleeping, I’ll come back tomorrow.. leave my parents out of this,.. go home.
I ended the call and continued my discussion with Bridget.
I thought you said Jason doesn’t call or look for you whenever you’re out.
He doesn’t… this is even surprising..
I think he’s starting to like you..
Jason doesn’t like me.. I haven’t been to his room before, we do not have this close contact when talking..
Where do you sleep then??
Guest room….. I miss all the cuddles Alex gives…
Jason and I always fight, we do not get along at all, Jason is not for me…. His attitude changes..
You’ve really gone through alot lately.
I stayed two more days with my girlfriend, switched off my phones….
The last day I went to my parents house first thing in the morning..
Jason kept coming to look for you Nancy, where have you been???
You need to see how calm he was asking us if we’ve reached out to you…
I think he has changed..
He hasn’t changed.. and I hope you’re saying this so you won’t pay his father the money you owe??
Nooo, he just acted like a gentle man..
I’m leaving now.. let me go face him..
I got home and noticed he was already driving out, he saw me, drove back in and waited for me..
Good morning Jason.. I greeted.
Where have you been?? For the past two days you’ve refused to come back, you even turned off your phone…. Why did you lie to me you were in your parents place??
Have I not told you not to leave this house?
You can’t keep telling me what to do when you do whatever you want Jason.
I gave you and Sonia space to mess up the sheets as you both have always done..
What is wrong with me going out and staying out for days??? I’m not your prisoner and you cannot keep telling me what to do.
I lied to you cause I do not want you to find me… don’t you get it?? You can’t make me forget about Alex…
Sonia already worsen everything when she slapped me, I respected you, if not I would have returned the slap.. such disrespect..
Do you realize that you’re talking to me??
I know that I am talking to you.. what else do you want??? Jason do not treat me like your child..
Oh I forgot!! You’re getting married to Sonia, she came with the wedding cards.. soo you don’t have to bother me.. stay with your Sonia..
I really want to believe you’re not coming from Alex or another man’s house…
Nancy, I am sorry for Sonia’s behavior.. I am sorry for everything.. I am apologizing to you cause I do not want you to start sleeping out…
You’re still my wife, believe it or not…
I wasn’t looking for you cause I am crazy about you, I only wanted to be sure you’re safe.
I was and I am safe…I’m not feeling you Jason..
I know…..
Talking about Sonia and messing up the sheets, if I want to do anything with anyone I am free to do it,, but I am not messing up my sheets anymore… I respect you enough not to defile our matrimonial bed.. yes fine!! Sonia enters my room but we do not have sex anymore…
You’re still my wife and we made our vows together..
I do not cheat on you with Sonia so I expect same loyalty from you..
I don’t care Jayson..it’s not our matrimonial bed.. I haven’t seen your bed before, you asked me never to go to your room.. I respect that… I owe you no loyalty …
I am not doing anything with Sonia until I marry her.. we stopped having sex the moment I married you..
But you left me all alone the night after getting married in church.
I know.. I left doesn’t mean I was with Sonia..
You also left with her the first day she came.. who are you fooling Jason.
I left with her, yes… but I set the boundaries…..
Nancy, there’s no need to explain anything to you cause I am also not feeling you emotionally.. I am also looking out for you as my responsibility for now..
If I love you I would have asked you to come to my room and sleep there…. You have your own room cause we are not emotionally connected…
Don’t take everything I say or do serious.. I don’t love you..
I hope no one is telling you that we’ll fall in love later?? This is no movie..
I’m getting married to Sonia soon, I want you to live your life with whoever suits you.but, before our wedding, please do not leave this house, if you eventually leave do not come back.
Congratulations to you… I can leave and never come back..
I’m done with this conversation.. there’s food in the freezer, just incase you’re hungry..
I’m not hungry.. stop staring at me.
Why did Alex break up with you??you really haven’t told me..
I’ll tell you all about it on the night of your wedding..
Ok. It’s a secret wedding though, my parents are not aware…. You’ll be invited…. I really want you to have your freedom….Soo stop leaving this house cause you and your parents owe lots of money.. wait till I get married…. You can go to your room..
Episode 7 : Emotional Turmoil and Seeking Support
Jason all of a sudden became soo soft….
If I want to go out he’ll skip work so we could go out together..
Always wanting to talk to me, especially at night in my room..
Whenever he wants to go to work he knocks on my door just to see me before going to work.
I hope you’ve forgotten about Alex??
No… it’s not as easy as you think.
But seriously, what was your father thinking .
Jason, we’re not talking about this..
Fine…. What’s your kind of man like?
I like someone tall and nice.. not soo grumpy 😠 like you.
But I’m tall.. I don’t really like tall girls.. Your height is perfect.
Sonias height is perfect too. I responded.
Do you feel lonely when I am out?? He asked
Nooo… I normally get my peace when you’re not at home…. You nag like a woman.
laughs*. Do you know you’re fun to be with?? You’re not bad afterall.. just your father who didn’t realize it when you were young
How did you meet Alex??
I’m not talking about Alex.
Tell me, I’ll tell you how I met Sonia..
Met Alex after I left school… loved him when I first saw him, he wasn’t bad though.. we always fight and it made me love him even more.. I miss him
So sorry about what happened.. it wasn’t your fault.. you can still be with him when I finally marry Sonia..
Your phone is ringing Nancy, why is it on silent?
It’s Alex..
Nancy, can we meet please.. There’s something I want to tell you..Alex said.
Okay… trying to reduce the volume
Are you free now???
Noo.. I’m not…
Can I come pick you up??it’s very important.
Not now Alex.. I’ll call you when I am free…
I’m sorry Nancy, I miss you.
Me too… bye..
You miss Alex? Do you know you’re not supposed to take his call here?? After what he did to you.. you disrespected me Nancy. You really want to go out with Alex?
But Jason, you said I can finally be with Alex when you get married to Sonia.. what’s all this??
And you think I meant what I said?? You can never be with Alex Nancy, I was just trying to make you feel comfortable with our conversation
Jason, you can’t get married to Sonia and leave me hanging.. I won’t take it..
You’re not going out. You’re not seeing anybody.. you’re not linking up with Alex and that’s final.
You want to leave me and go be with your ex that probably will take you to bed??
Jason, you’re getting married to Sonia and you do not want me to get married to Alex? Why??
you’re still married to me.. until I ask you to leave you have no right to leave.
Your mood swing is something else, few minutes you were happy now you’re angry…
Give me your phone. Jason forcefully took my phone and dialed Alex number.. You asked her to move on, why are you still calling and making an appointment with her? Do you even realize she’s married?? Jason.. I’ve known Nancy for a very long time now.. I take back whatever I said to her.. She’s still the woman I love.. and she’ll choose me over you * hangs up
With annoyance Jason smashed my phone 📱
Jason, what have you done?? What in earth is wrong with you??
You do not listen Nancy.. do you know what? I do not want to talk to you anymore.. just go to your room.
I’m not your child Jason. You can’t keep controlling me… I need you to replace my phone immediately…
I’m soo glad you will finally leave my life for good.. I can’t stay with a man like you.. you may kill me someday..
Alex is same person that made me accidentally hit you,, don’t make me hit you again on purpose.
You want to hit me?? Sonia has done hers, you can do yours…but if you try it, I’ll leave this house and never return.. you’re a monster..
I never wanted you here…
I never wanted to be here…
You never wanted to be here?? Really??
Yes.. I hate you with everything in me… you and your family ruined my life… 😢
You hate me? You really hate me??
Yes, I hate you.. Alex is the man I want to spend the rest of my life with not you.
Jason held my wrist.
You are saying you hate me?? Why? What have I done? Cause I don’t want you to go see Alex??
Jason, you’re hurting my wrist, let me go please..
He carried me to my room and locked me in..
Jason open the door please…
Stay there Nancy.. I’m going out right now. I’ll be back in the evening..
I stayed in my room alone for hours locked up..
In the evening Jason came back. Opened the door, sat on my bed.
I got you a new phone.. I am sorry for what happened earlier between us..it won’t happen again.. I got you some food too.. I want us to stop fighting.. Alex is the person always making us get heated arguments.
I am sorry Nancy. Please say something.
Leave my room..
Two days passed and I began to miss Jason whenever he leaves for works, I wasn’t talking to him still..
He apologized again and I forgave him..
We started talking and I was already trying soo hard not to fall for him..
Our conversation was normal.. I wanted more than just being alone in my room..
I wanted Jason close, I wanted to always sit close to him and have a real glance..
I was interested in knowing him without finding faults.
He became my bad habit…
For the first time I was imagining things, I thought of the day I’d finally sleep close him and allow him cuddle me.
My heart skipped a bit when I remember Jason said he’s getting married to Sonia.
Hello Bridget can you visit me tomorrow when Jason is at work.
Bridget came and I told her everything happening between us.
Nancy, I think you should call the lawyer, if Jason is getting married, there’s no hope for you.. you have to dissolve the marriage between you and him so you can find someone better, Alex is out of the picture.. I heard he’s getting married.
Alex?? Getting married? He called me and said he wanted to see me.
Maybe he wanted to tell you,, I really do not know.. I just heard anyway.
What took you so long to call the lawyer??
I thought I had fallen inlove with Jason, it was just an illusion..
You love Jason??
I don’t know… I imagine us together seriously..
Has he showed any sign of emotions for you.
I can’t tell,, I feel he loves me but too scared to admit it.
He is gentle and hard at same time..
Jason came back from work.
Hi!
Hello!! I got you something Nancy.. let me see you briefly.
Excuse me Bridget.
I got you this shirt, I feel it will look nice on you,, also this nightware, hate the ones you’ve been wearing…. I missed you the few hours I was away.. did you miss me?
A lil bit…
Thank you Jason….
I went back to meet Bridget when Sonia walked in.
Another day of trouble.
I and Bridget could hear Jason and Sonia quarelling.
I told you to stop coming without calling me..
Do you realize that I am still married to Nancy… stop visiting me.
Jason, you stopped coming over to visit, you barely call me.
You’re repeating words Sonia…. I have a wife in the sitting room and all you did was walked down to my room just to tell me I’ve stopped visiting??
You love Nancy??
You want to hear the truth?? You want to know if I love her??
I want to know Jason..tell me.
I don’t know if I love Nancy but she’s my wife. And I am supposed to love my wife right?? You get it now?
No, I don’t Jason, explain to me.
Leave my room Sonia.
Nancy, is this what you see all the time?? Bridget asked.
Yea.. I see worse.
Sonia came out calling out my name.
Nancy, if you think you’ll get Jason you are a big liar…. Here’s my engagement ring 💍 ** showing me her ring..
She have a wedding ring and you have an engagement ring? That’s nice. Bridget said.
We’re going to get married soon as we’ve had everything planned.
Listen Sonia, this isn’t the last time I let you slap me without doing nothing to you… I’ll design you if you dare come close to me and Jason will do nothing.
You’re in my house never forget that… I don’t care if Jason is getting married to you… stay your lane.
Sonia! You’re creating unnecessary drama here..
Nancy, take your bag let’s go.. I can no longer take this.. Bridget said.
You shouldn’t tell my wife to leave.. Jason responded .
Im not your wife Jason.. Sonia is.. and don’t try to stop me this time..
I left them to Bridget’s place.
I called the lawyer.. and we met.
I explained to him how I got married to Jason..
Since Jason wants to get married the only thing to do is to divorce him…
He can’t be married to you and also planning to marry his girlfriend.
One must leave..
I’ll leave, Sonia has been there before me.
What about the debt??
Serve him the papers first..
I think I’ll be divorcing Jason before he gets married to Sonia…
Episode 8 : Jason’s Return
I saw myself waking up too early, it wasn’t usual to me, waking up by 3am thinking of the decision I’ve made…. Inasmuch as I feel I love Jason a lil bit I just want to also be free from all his constant troubles, including Sonia’s drama.
I wouldn’t want a situation where he’ll break the news to me again, I needed to be faster than him..
Do you feel you’ve made the right choice Nancy.., Bridget asked.
Yeah, I’ll talk to the lawyer again to start processing everything.
You wake up too early these days why?? Is it Jason???
Something like that, I saw his call but there’s no need to respond to him, this isn’t the first time Sonia is storming the house unannounced.
Jason doesn’t really seem to be doing anything about it, I feel he’s trying to protect her feelings..
He keeps telling her I am his wife but she has acces to everything in his house while I don’t.
You have to inform your parents about this divorce including his parents.
I don’t have to… my parents will kick against it,, I’ll go see them tomorrow though…
Jason came twice yesterday to look for you.
Okay!
What is okay??
What do you want me to say dad?? He came to look for me then okay.
What’s going on between you two this time??
You should have asked him when he came.
He didn’t say anything when we asked him..
What are you doing here Alex?
I saw Bridget and she told me you’re here, how are you?
I’m fine!!!
Nancy, I’m sorry’.
It’s fine..
No, it’s not, see! I really want us to talk about everything… I’m getting married…
Soo soon? I thought it was a rumor… congratulations 🍾🎈
How’s your marriage with Jason?
There’s nothing to talk about…. I hope you find happiness in your marriage..
I still miss you. You know! I didn’t stop loving you.
Alex, please it’s okay, I have a lot on my head right now.
Nancy, Jason is outside… mum said.
I was expecting him…
Nancy, what is Alex doing here?
Why is Alex your problem? Is Alex the reason you’re here?
Noo….. you’re the reason I am here, but seeing Alex makes me feel worthless and I think he is the reason why you always leave even if it’s a little misunderstanding.
You call Sonia’s constant troubles a little misunderstanding? You call the way you treat me a little misunderstanding?? Jason you’re a joker
Can I have some private time with you? Alex shouldn’t be here’’.
You can’t always have things done your way Jason. I am human too..
I’m sorry.. just tell Alex to leave so we can talk.
Jason please leave my parents house… you feel you have the power you have in your house here? This is not your house.
Nancy, I’ll just leave so you and your husband can settle whatever issues you have.
Alex I’ve told you before, Jason is not my husband..I’ll call you later. Take care.
Alex left.
Can we go home?
Jason what do you want?
I want to make up for all the days I messed up Nancy’. I am deeply sorry for any pain I’ve caused you.. I feel terrible each time I see you with Alex, it makes me feel that I can’t give you the love care and attention you need.
But you shouldn’t be doing this to me.. you know I didn’t ask for this marriage but the journey with you has been rough and smooth at same time.
I just wanted you to be happy the few days, weeks ,months before I finally tie the knot 🪢 with my fiancé…
Soo, you’re still getting married to Sonia??
Yes.. I am..
You don’t like me at all? Cause I do not understand why you keep coming to look for me when I am out and why you keep getting angry when it’s about Alex…
You are getting married and you’re asking me to come back home, for what exactly? Too meet with Sonia again??
Jason I am already getting tired of everything going on between us…. You don’t love me, at same time you want me close to you…. Why can’t you let me be?
Nancy, I feel something for you but I don’t know what to call it..
I’m sorry Nancy, I don’t want to hurt you, I don’t hate you.. I want you back home.
Okay, you want me to decorate your house as a woman whose father is owing your father while you go ahead to marry the woman you really want to marry?
It’s fine Jason.. I’ll come back but give me some time to stay with my parents.
I’ll come back and be your house debt wife..
You’re getting it all wrong.
How?? That since we married I’ve been the one cleaning and Sonia has been the one coming to stain the house and help you warm your bed cause you love her??
Since she’s becoming your wife I think she should start staying with you.
You’re still married to me remember that..
I’m trying to make sure everything works out for you… you’re still my wife.
I didn’t forget..I’ll come back home just give me some time..
After getting married to Sonia what will happen to me?
I’ll figure it out…. I miss you Nancy I want to always stare at you, provide for you.. I don’t want you far. Every little moment spent with you is worth it
The only reason you want me back is to stare at me? Wow…. I’ll come back Jason..
Jason left..
I contacted my lawyer to quickly get the papers ready.
Jason’s decision isn’t that bad, I guess he was trying to be selfish…. Keeping me at home while making plans to marry in secret.
He kept visiting me in my parents house, calling me, sending me gifts and money.
I collected everything he gave me even though I was feeling sad, I felt I wasn’t good enough for him, or is it because we met at the wrong foot..
He made me feels he loves me but he doesnt, the acces Sonia have was enough reason to divorce him.. the way he talks about his marriage to Sonia all the time was something that provoked me and make me sad.
Why is he keeping me?? I thought to myself but I got no answers as why he always wants me close.
I got a text from Sonia “ I’m with Jason, we just finished making out in his room, the room he refused you from accessing, you married the wrong man Nancy””.
I sent the text to Jason…
I thought he was going to call me to explain why Sonia sent me such text but he didn’t…
Maybe he doesn’t care, he can’t keep living his life and hurting me at same time..
Sonia sent another text. “ You can’t have what I am having, I hope you don’t come back, even if you do, I’ll keep coming to make the house a living hell for you””.
She kept sending me annoying texts,,.
I didn’t stop sending them to Jason…
Jason never for once mentioned it to me.
I called him and asked him if he saw the texts Sonia has been sending to me.
I saw all Nancy,..
You didn’t say anything about it, why?
There’s nothing to say about it.. I’m sorry..
Okay, just tell her to stop texting me..
She won’t stop texting you… you just have to bear it.
Jason, I don’t understand, is it that you’re scared of Sonia or what? She’s hurting me with those texts… I want her to stop
Nancy, She won’t stop….
Are you that careless? Or were both having sex when she took my number from your phone??
Nancy, I am sorry.. isn’t that enough reason for you to just forget about it??
It’s fine Jason…
I’ve changed the setting of your room, you’ll like it when you see it, I used your favorite color…
I changed mine too…
And Sonia has seen it right??
Take care Nancy. hangs up
My mind was already made up, I don’t care what his parents or mine thinks.. I have to focus on my future and live my life.
He changed my room, he used my favorite color, does it mean that I will stay in that room forever??
The papers are ready nancy. The lawyer texted me.
I met with him, paid him off, called Jason.
I’m home Nancy, you can come.
I got home, met him in the living room..and handed the papers to him.
What’s this?? He asked.
Open it and see for yourself. I responded with a smile on my face.
What???
Sign the papers Jason. I quit…
Is this a joke? You can’t divorce me. I’m your husband and you’re my wife.
Jason stop playing.. sign the papers so you can marry in peace.
I can’t.
Why???
Because I love you..
You, What??
You heard what I said.. I am sorry….
I’m not angry, I want you out from my life.
I’ll be back to finally take the papers, don’t keep me waiting Jason….
Sign them and call me.. I’m leaving..
Episode 9 : Demands and Inner Conflict
You’ve been soo quite since you came back from Jason’s place.. what happend Nancy… Bridget asked..
It’s Jason.. look! I do not know his plans but he told me he won’t sign the papers..
What’s his reason?
He said he love me..
Are you falling for his words already?? Nancy, this guy hurt you, he allowed a woman into his bedroom and told you he wants to get married.. why are you acting soo soft towards him ?? Do you believe he loves you??
I don’t know babe, I just want my peace…
You’re in love with Jason..
Not really..
Jason is calling you…
Nancy, can we talk about everything please… I went to your meet your father, he said you didn’t come back.. I’ve gone back home, I want to come see you anywhere you are..
Jason, stop looking for me, I told you to call me whenever you’ve signed the divorce papers,have you sign the papers???
I haven’t signed anything. I can’t sign those papers Nancy, my heart is beating soo fast. I am sorry for the pain I’ve caused you.. I want to see you please.. I don’t want to loose you.
Why are you being selfish and inconsiderate at same time??? You’re getting married and you want me in your house? To do what exactly??
I’ll come over when you’ve signed the papers.. since you’ve not signed them yet, I am not coming to your house.. I’m no longer there you can invite Sonia to keep you company..
You can’t just wake up one morning and make the decision of divorcing me, it’s not proper..
Call me when you’ve signed the papers I gave you… ends call*
Jason has guts… he is not serious…
Nancy, what’s happening between you and Jason?? My dad asked.
Nothing is happening, we’re cool with each other.
So why is he always coming to look for you??
Dad, please don’t make me angry,, you and mum are the cause of all this pains I am going through right now… don’t call me to ask me why Jason is looking for me.. I am tired of you and mum… just leave me alone please..
Nancy, I am sorry, I will make it up to you, but I don’t like the way Jason is always coming in search of you, it’s making me scared and worried.
Three days later Jason called.
I’ve signed the papers Nancy, you can come get them.
What a relief, I’m coming.
Are you sure he signed the papers?? Something is telling me he didn’t sign it. Bridget said.
Jason will sign it… I’ll see you in the evening..
I arrived at Jason’s house and discovered the door was wide open, it gave me a lil chill,, the door is always locked why is it open??
I called out for Jason twice before he answered,, he was in the kitchen doing the dishes..
This is what I was doing when I was with him, I do no longer need to stress myself to do anything for a man whose intention is just to keep me and probably waste my years.
You arrived fast Nancy, he said.
Yeah, I want to be fast in whatever I am doing today..
Have you had breakfast??
Jason, I’m here for those papers, I didn’t come to eat… can I have them?
But why have you decided to divorce me?
You can’t marry Sonia and still keep me in your house, you can’t order me around simply because my father owes your father, you can’t deny me acces to your room and allow Sonia who you’re not yet married to acces everything, you can’t keep using me cause I am attractive to you..
I told you about the text Sonia sent to me and you did nothing. You keep defiling our matrimonial bed with Sonia and you always lie about it. I am tired of you disrespecting me and my family….
Always reminding me of how much my parents owe as a result of their greed… telling me I am your wife and not proving it was the height of it…
Telling me you’re getting married to Sonia was a huge red flag for me.. Alex broke up with me cause of you and my parents and I can’t let you do same..
I want to be free from all your maltreatments, your constant use of abusive words.. I want you to have your peace with Sonia when you finally get married to her.
Can I have the papers???
Let me talk before handling them over to you..
Do you love me?? Jason asked.
I thought I did, I was wrong.. I don’t love you.
I love you Nancy, and I take responsibility for the words I said .
You love me? After what you made me go through?? Am I a joke to you?
I was a fool, I allowed my pride to get the best of me.. I am deeply sorry for everything.. I should have come out of my shell and love you unconditionally.
I let The thoughts of Alex ruin me, I said all those things to you to actually make you feel the way I felt when you always leave the house to go meet Alex.
I was suppose to get married to Sonia but I cancelled everything when I realized I love you and couldn’t stay a day without seeing you..
I already broke up with Sonia cause she was trying to provoke you, she lied to you, the text she sent wasn’t true….
You’re my wife and I want to spend the every minute with you.. don’t leave please.. forgive me.. even if it will take time, I’ll wait patiently.. you’re worth it. I want to be a better person.
Our bed is still undefiled… I told you before that the moment I married you was when I stopped being intimate with Sonia.. I couldn’t cheat on you like you did to me.
I didn’t cheat on you Jason, sincerely, I really wanted to .. but Alex respected you .
You gave me nothing but troubles initially and all I could think of was Alex, I am sorry to say this but that’s the truth…
I thought of it and realized Alex was right, I was married to you and I am supposed to be loyal to you which I did and I avoided Alex after we broke up…
Did you avoid Sonia for any reason?? She kept coming and coming..
The papers Jason…I need to live my life and find my own partner..
Let me go bring it.
I flipped through and realized he didn’t sign them, I asked why and he said he wouldn’t dare to sign it.
I can’t marry you Jason, you’re too arrogant and full of yourself.. if you do not want to sign it then tell your father that the contract between him and my father ended today.
You can no longer fool me with your cheap lies…
Nancy, I am trying to be soo polite with you because I am not a violent person…
I beg you in Gods name… I am pleading… don’t make this hard for us….
When it’s not working then it’s not working.
What are you doing here Nancy.. Sonia said.
How did you get in?? I thought I told you I don’t want to see you here?? Jason responded.
You broke up with me cause of Nancy?? A woman your father married to you cause he needed to punish her father for running away with his money??
Do you even realized Jason never paid a dime on you?? He wasn’t the person that paid your pride price, you were not married traditionally,, no introduction, just a reception with few persons.. Sonia added.
And a certificate of marriage incase you’ve forgotten, including a wedding ring.. Jason responded.
Sonia… you know you were trying to get to Nancy when you sent her those messages… You lied to her trying to provoke her and make her hate me??
You knew I love Nancy, I told you about it..
You did?? You told Sonia you love me?? I said.
Yes, I did….
Jason.. I still do not care.. I can’t keep seeing Sonia around whenever I am here.
I’ll speak to your father…. I’ll leave the papers with you. I no longer need your love….I was a prisoner in your house.. I don’t care if you broke up with Sonia cause of me or something else..
I am really done…. If you still insist you will not sign it then get ready to come drag me to your house..
Sign what Jason?? Sonia asked.
Nancy is trying to divorce me…
Then sign it, she’s never loved you.. she’s here cause of her father, Jason please sign the papers so we can be legally married.
Do you realize what you’re saying? I should sign the divorce papers??
Who told you I am tired of Nancy?who said I want a divorce?? Nancy has stolen my heart and she’s the woman I want to grow old with..
Call me when you’re ready to dissolve this marriage….
I’m..
I left Jason’s house…. I got home and few hours later I got a text from Sonia.
“”I’d give you an advice Nancy, it’s better you divorce Jason or you live in regret all the days of your life, Jason is a flirt… ask him why he called off our wedding…. The moment he sleeps with you is the moment he’ll begin to treat you like a toy..””.
“” if Jason is like that as you claim, why didn’t you leave him??? Why were you angry that he cancelled the wedding between you two??””
“ you can have Jason for all I care” Was my reply back to her.
I wasn’t satisfied with the reply i gave her so I called her.
Hello, Sonia, stop texting me,, are you shivering? Are you sad Jason finally opened up??
Nancy, Jason is a cheat, he’s trying to get to you the way he did to me…. If you fall for him you’ll regret it…
Sonia, I already know what you’re trying to do…. Stop texting me….** ends call**
Why is she pained??
I don’t know, she loves Jason dearly… I feel she’s heartbroken too.
Sincerely I wasn’t expecting Jason to end it all with Sonia.
Why?
He was always talking about getting married in secret to Sonia…
Nancy, you’re inlove with Jason, it’s written all over you.. you can always go back to him.
Episode 10 : Family Pressure and Independence
Woke up in the morning and decided to go get some stuff from the market with my best friend Bridget, we got to the market and got confused on what to buy, it was funny as we walked round the market laughing..
Let’s get some clothes and some foodstuffs, including toiletries then..
I felt my phone’s vibration, I took it out from my bag’. It was Jason’s mother.
What does she want now? Has Jason told her the situation at hand already??
Hello Nancy, what’s going on between you and Jason??
I don’t understand…
Your father called me, he said Jason has been visiting cause you left his house and Jason has refused to say anything to him, when I asked Jason he didn’t say anything still.. what’s going on??
Nothing is going on..I just went for a visit in my friends place..
I’d like to discuss something with you and Jason, I paid a marriage counselor to actually come over to Jason’s house tomorrow morning… I hope you will show up so we can talk about everything.
I know it’s difficult to adjust but you just have to try…
Ma… I don’t think there’s a need for that..
Please Nancy, I understand you very well.
You don’t understand me…
Let’s meet in Jason’s house tomorrow morning.. I’ll call you in the morning… take care.
Jason doesn’t know when to stop…. Involving his mother is a big mistake..
He didn’t involve his mother, she said your father called her.. I think your father is trying to make them withdraw the marriage.. you have to go, atleast to make them understand why you’re calling it a quit..
Jason hasn’t t opened up to them yet..
He can’t open up to them.. his father married me to him.. he didn’t actually marry me on his own… we were forcefully joined together.
I am aware of that, you both were angry on that day..
I’ll go see my father before going to meet Jason, his mum and the marriage counselor tomorrow morning… I wonder what they want to talk about.
They want to advice you 🤭 Let’s hurry up so you can go meet your parents.
I think I’ll go from here, you just need to take the stuffs home by yourself, I’ll come back later..
That’s a great idea.
I got to my parents house, my dad wasn’t around but my mum was.
Are you aware dad called Jason’s mum??
Yes, he was trying to know what went wrong between you both as Jason is refusing to say anything each time he comes to look for you.. he thought they know about whatever that is going on.
Did he come to look for me yesterday??
Yes, he came, he also came this morning. Nancy, what’s going on??
Nothing mum..
I know this was not your choice but you did it cause of your father and I.. the pressure from Jason’s father was too much on us..We had no choice
I really want this marriage to work but it seems it’s not working…. You always leave his house and spend days outside, does it mean you and Jason hasn’t been doing what married couples do??? You don’t even talk about him.. are you suffering there???
Yes, I am suffering, talking about Jason and I being intimate, nooo,..it has never happened..
I’ll talk to your father when he comes back,
Ok, I don’t think I can wait for him.. I’ll call him instead… I need to go back to Bridget..
Nancy! Everything will be fine.
Next morning, Jason’s mother called me to remind me of the meeting.
I’ll be there in few hours..
Took my shower 🚿 ate and left to Jason’s place.
I noticed it was only Jason’s car that was parked at the garage..
Could it be that his mum ordered a ride down here??
I opened the door, and met Jason..
Did you play a smart one on me?? Where’s your mum and where’s the marriage counselor??
My mum is not here, I know if I told you to come you’ll not…. So I had to tell my mum to lure you here, I am sorry.
Why??
I’m sorry, she called me and said your father called her, I didn’t tell her anything happening between us.. I just told her to help me bring you here so I can talk to you…..
Now! What??
I love you. I’m sorry.. that’s all I have to say., it’s fine if you do not feel same way, I deserve this treatments.
I should have been reasonable enough to talk to you, I thought I was paying you back for all you did to me,.
What did I do to you? You were the one maltreating me, locking me in my room, smashing my phone and trying to harm me.. you threatened me Jason…. What did I do to deserve such from you??
Calm down Nancy, I want us to have a peaceful conversation..
What did I ever do to you to deserve all the bad things you and Sonia did to me? It wasn’t my fault I was married to you, it was my father and your fathers deal…. Tell me Jason.. what did I do?
It was about Alex.. Alex caused it.. you barely talk to me.
Wow!
I noticed you love him too much that it got into your head, even after he broke up with you, you still tell me you miss him.. I was jealous and I didn’t know how to control my emotions.
You didn’t give me the attention I needed..
You barely sleep at home.. you don’t even talk to me, when you want to talk you remind me of how worthless I am and how selfish and greedy my dad is.
I’m soo sorry Nancy.. I swear I never meant all that I said to you.
I wanted you, but I was too shy to tell you, too rude to admit that i love you.. and too proud to loose…
You’re the best thing that has ever happens to me, I do not want you to tell me to sign the papers anymore. Let’s try to work it out please, I promise to be the man you want me to be…
What about………,,,
Who? Sonia? She became my ex when I married you.. I gave her aces to my room cause I know how dramatic she could be…. But I’ve changed everything in the room.
I want you to see it, Sonia hasn’t and she will never see it again…
I love you Nancy, every bit of you…. You’re calm, patient you’re lovely.
You’re mistaken Jason, how come you’re soo gentle?? Why??
I want to change for you and be gentle for your sake..Can you please reconsider us? Our marriage??
I don’t know…
Do you feel anything for me??? Jason asked coming close to me.
I don’t know anymore..
But you once loved me?? He asked.
Yeah… i loved you before but I don’t know if I still do….I responded..
How comfortable would you be with kissing right now?? Jason asked.
What type of question is that??
I just want to confirm if the spark is still there.
Jason, there’s no spark anymore, that’s why I need you to sign those papers..
Would it still be okay if I kiss you on the lips for some seconds?? If the spark is no longer there then I promise you that I’ll sign the papers…deal…
I thought about it for a second, even though I wanted him to sign those papers, I still want to kiss him before we finally depart’ atleast to know how his lips taste.
Don’t be shy, we’re married… don’t kiss me back just allow me kiss you.. he said pulling me close.
He hasn’t kissed me but the spark was still there, the current was more than 💯%
When we finally kissed, I didn’t want him to stop’. But he stopped and asked if I felt anything.
No, Jason no spark.
You kissed me Nancy even when I told you not to.. you didn’t want me to stop.. admit it. You love me as much as I love you..
Jason, sign those papers, you’re right, I felt it..
A deal is a deal Nancy…. I’m not signing.. can we do this one more time..? This time it should last for an hour.
Why are you feeling soo relaxed?? I asked him.
Cause you’re not leaving me. 😊 we just kissed Nancy.. and I loved it.. I love you. 😊
