JENNY
It is already five months and I have been to Roseâs house,my belly has grown very big like someone that will be giving birth to triplet.
âThis is almost five months Joe has not call nor come to visit me,his last visit was last two months and when I called him and asked his reasons of not coming to see me,he told me that he traveled for a business tripâ
âI have tried serval times to reach him on the phone but he is not picking,I still have feelings for my husband I only left the house for the sake of my unborn childâ
âWhat is going on? Why is he not picking my calls?
I panic as I tried his number again.
âI need to go and see my husband and find out his reasons of rejecting my callsâ
I said.
I changed my cloth,went downstairs took the car key and zoomed off to the house.
I got the house,I was so shocked of what I saw at the sitting room.
I saw pant and bra together with boxers lying on the floor.
âNo! this can be what am tninking!
I laughed out.
I went up to the room to clarify my thought and at the stairs I saw a lady shoe,I smiled and went up to the room.
I was shocked,speechless and dumbfounded of what I saw.
I met Joe s—–g a girl pusy as the girl was moaning loudly and calling out his name.
My bag fell off from my hand as I shouted out his name.
âJoe!
They were shocked to see me,they rushed and covered themselves with duvet.
âSo Joe this thing is the reason why you have not come to see me nor pick up my calls?
I shouted as tears started flowing down like a river.
âWhat are you doing here? Is it by force to pick your calls?
he shouted.
âWho is this pregnant woman my love?
the girl asked placing her hands around his neck.
âHoney she is nobody to me now,she was my wife who got raped by a rapist and I have nothing to do With her anymoreâ
he said.
His words hurts me the most ,those words torns my heart apart.
âJoe what are you saying? How could you say such a thing to me in front of this thing?
I cried out.
âYou this woman watch your mouth! F.Y.I am I his fianceeâ
the stupid girl shouted at me.
âNope this can be! I think am dreaming!
I cried out.
âJenny you are not dreaming,this is reality,it is over between us I canât cope and live the same roof with a woman that got rapedâ
he shouted at me.
âI love you Joe! Donât do this to me,you are my husband for crying out loudâ
I cried out.
âI donât love you anymore,the love i have for you die at the moment you became pregnant for that rapist,Kelly here is the woman I want to marry,please use the door you are disturbing our peaceful momentâ
he shouted.
âJoe are you the one that is saying this thing to me or something inside of you?
I cried out.
âAre you deaf? He said you should make use of the doorâ
the girl shouted.
âJoe did you think about this!
I shouted and that stupid girl pushed me out from the room.
âDont touch me you husband snatcher!
I shouted as she was pushing me out from the room.
My heart has been broken into pieces,why could Joe do this to me?
Is it my fault that I got raped and became pregnant as the result of it?
I cried bitterly and drove out.
âWhere are you coming from? I have been looking for and I called your line you were not pickingâ
She asked as she sighted me from upstairs.
âRosy!
I cried out throwing myself at the chair without minding my present condition.
âWhat is it Jenny? Why are you like this? What happen to you?
She asked as soon as she rushed downstairs.
âRosy is Joe!
I cried out.
âWhat happen to Joe? Calm down and talk to meâ
âYou know for the past two months later Joe has not come to see me nor even pick my callsâ
I cried out and explained everything to her.
âJenny calm down I know Joe was not in his right sense,he do this to you nahâ
she shouted.
âThe one that torn my heart the most is that he addressed me to that brat as a raped woman,Joe opened his mouth and called me a raped womanâ
I cried out.
âThis is so unbelievable! you mean Joe called you that?
she shouted.
âJenny is okay! stop crying for the sake of the unborn child,stop hurting yourself over Joeâ
She said and wiped out my tears.
âRose why is my own fate like this? I was raped at the night after our wedding and got pregnant for a rapist and now Joe has nothing to do with me anymore all because of the rap,why is my own fate like this?
I cried out.
âJenny stop crying,you are hurting this baby and God knows why it is like this and we canât question Him,please stop crying and put yourself together,we are born into this world to face any obstacles that meant befall us and conquer it all,When God takes away something from Ur hands donât think heâs punishing u. Heâs just leaving u empty handed to receive something better and also ,Having God in Ur Boat doesnât mean that Youâll not face any storm!
But it means that no storm can sink Ur Boat!
Walk in faith n youâll never walk alone,please Jenny stop crying and face the reality of thingsâ
she consoled me and wiped out my tears.
She took me inside my room,brought me food and patted me like a baby until I slept off.
