Sarah's Perspective. Seven Years Ago,Some women picked the wrong men out of many. I have heard women complain of a whoring husband, but I always counted myself an exception. My husband, can be best described as every woman’s dream. He is handsome looking – well-built, intelligent and smart. Besides, he is a man of his words. Furthermore, he attached so much love and interest to his family because he was out to ensure that he distinguished himself from his father. He grew up with a father who was a polygamist and an irresponsible one, who was also known as a wife beater with many legitimate and illegitimate concubines. Fortunately, none of my husband's siblings took after their father, except the step siblings. When he asked for my hand in marriage, my mother was afraid, judging from his background. But today, he had proved everyone wrong by living beyond their expectations.As a policy, he hardly kept late night except of recent, and I was surprised at his sudden change of attitude.

The VisitNow, I hastily walked back to the kitchen to check the food without waiting for a response.However, he stood there confused as he watched me walk back to the kitchen. 'Why would she bother to reheat the food under this circumstance? The food got cold as a result of my returning late. Yet, she took the pain to do that.'He thought to himself. Meanwhile, the food was his favorite. Potatoes from Jos, Plateau State, North Central of Nigeria, which most Nigerians preferred to call Irish Potatoes. As for my husband, it was Jos Potatoes or, better still, Berom Potatoes. His first encounter with it was when his uncle, who lived in Jos, brought it to the village. The uncle was fondly called 'Uncle Jos' and as such the potato was named after him.If only he knew the pains I took to get that, as it was not the season and not even sold in the neighborhood. In my opinion, no matter the situation, he needed to eat because he might be starving and would not joke with his precious 'Jo

Do my friends and colleagues agree with the management that I deserved what I got?'He asked himself.Evans had been in that organization for twenty-nine years and had contributed immensely to its growth and development.

My husband was a thorough person who hardly jokes about anything he did, and he also applied the same tenacity with his love and family life.Then, he walked back to the living room and sat before the television again. Within two weeks, he had experienced unimaginable things. Losing his job and hitting his wife. Then, I wondered what could be going on in his mind.

They all greeted simultaneously, while George and Lilian gave her a hug one after the other. Now, her presence always reminded them that they had native names because she addressed them by that. These names had event connotations. George's name is 'Odera; Odego' – Which means, once it is written by God that something must take place it had been written, nothing changes it.While Lilian is 'Omere ebele'. Ebele for short. It means the child who showed mercy.I was billed for a Cesarean Section while I was in labor due to some complications, but before the surgeon arrived she came forth. Likewise, My husband, who stood aside with a discontented smile on his face while grandma and the grandchildren exchanged pleasantries, looked at me for a clue. “My in-law.” Mama called as soon as she had the opportunity to look at my husband. “Yes, Mama.” He replied with a concealed anxiety. Then, the children left for their room, leaving us alone. “My daughter had informed me of what happened.

For that reason, our relations refused to accompany him to the girl's parents for proper marriage, as required by the native law and custom. Such legalization of marriage would have accorded him the ownership of the children.On the other hand, the girl's parents were not willing to welcome him either. The truth about the matter was that the parents of Chika, the mistress, had given her out in marriage to Mr. Eric Adibe, the son of Mr. Adibe her father’s bosom friend who was based in the United States of America. As at the time she moved into my father's house, it had been six years since Eric left.

No man was willing to marry her, even though it was no secret that her husband, was nowhere to be found. Despite her beauty and age, she was very much willing to marry anyone who was willing to take her

“You did not tell me you were already in town when you called this morning. I told you I will get back to you. I never said you were welcomed to my house.”My husband remarked with disdain.“I came to town yesterday and went to your office. The gate man refused to let me in.”“Yesterday was Sunday. How do you expect that I should be at work?”Evans inquired, but, he ignored his question and continued with his explanation, without any iota of remorse."He said that if you were expecting me, you would have left instructions with him. Then, I hung around until he gave me your number and directed me on how to get to the quarters.” One would think that we owed him anything or that we had a good rapport. At that point, he looked like a fish deprived of water. The look on Evan’s face showed that he remembered vividly how he made life unbearable for us when we were about to get married. 'Should I ask him to go back?'He thought. Looking at the time, it was late for him to travel back to t

Mama shouted as she attempted to ask many questions at the same time. Now, we just realized that she was back, and were startled by her voice, so we rushed to the scene. Meanwhile, Evans and I were thinking of how to salvage the situation, but we were only trying to turn Mama into a killer with our sluggishness in acknowledging the degree of our mistakes.Now, Mama, who was too nervous and angry, began to yell abuses at him while Beck abused her too. In that game, one cannot compare Mama with Mr. Beck Aaron when it comes to the use of abusive and vulgar languages. He had been a troublemaker right from his mother’s womb. He talked and fought like a silly woman, and he became worst as he got older and dejected.“Are you the only one who is entitled to visit her? Is she not my daughter too? Did you buy her from the market?” Mr. Aaron asked simultaneously, not minding how she would feel. Now, he got off the bed and stood in a manner that said. 'If Mama felt like fighting him, he was u
