Diary of A pastor's Wife (part 10)

Lizzy whipped off her lab coat and threw it on the floor. I must have made a face because she looked at me and laughed.


"I am so tired Ekom." She said, while getting water from a dispenser."
"Obviously." I said meanly.

She gulp down the water and then took a deep breathe.

"you know I haven't seen you since you returned, it's been 5months now. what has been happening? you look really different."

"nothing much. David is seeking for a divorce."

"grant him. After all he has a son now from his maid. the baby falls sick almost every single day. I am tired of treating him." She reeled off, while trying to put on another lab coat."
"Did she put to birth here in your clinic?".

"No. I heard she put to birth in London. I wasn't even around at that time. I was on a 3month course in Australia."

"oh okay. Lizzy I think the kids and I will be relocating to America by next year."
"Better. start up a new life over there. I hope you have not given up on God?"

"The question should be if God hasn't given up on me Lizzy. I am such a problematic human being." I said sadly. Lizzy looked at me directly in the eyes and wrinkled her nose with a loud sigh.

"You should always be positive my friend." She paused and continued.

"I never knew David was AS. Ifeoma is AS too which resulted to an SS genotype for their baby.

I took another surprise look at her, she fetched water for the second time from the dispenser, waiting for it to get filled.

"Did you say David is AS? he is AA. I am AS. He can't be AS."

She stood there for a moment, her hands folded, she stood stiff like a status looking at my face like she was finding something.

"wait a minute. how come the baby has sickle cell anaemia?" Lizzy asked amazingly.

"I don't know. but I am very sure that David is AA. that's his genotype."
There was a pause. I mean a long silence.

There was a question in that silence. A question that we possibly had answers to.
"Does David know that the baby is SS?" I broke the silence.



There was a question in that silence. A question that we possibly had answers to.
"Does David know that the baby is SS?" I broke the silence.

" No. They haven't gotten their result yet. My laboratory scientist isn't done with their test result. I hope this isn't true. because from that baby's eyes, I knew he was SS.

"It may be what you think. David has been wanting a child for 12 years now, I hope his baby isn't SS.

"Let's see the result first. before I forget, we have to run a test on you. you look really pale." She said politely as she dials a number with her telephone.

"The lab?" Lizzy questioned as one of her perfectly arched eye browse lifted. (Part 11 loading..)

MY SPOUSE, WE NEED TO GROW UP...✍️

1. We need to grow up and stop this game of tit for tat. It is childish to revenge. 2. We need to grow up and stop this silent treatment that lasts for weeks. Grown ups don't behave like this. 3. We need to grow up and stop talking constanly about our problems and start focusing on solutions. Grown ups act. 4. We need to grow up and stop exposing our children to our drama and issues. We shouldn't act childish in their presence with disunity and attitude, they are under our care. 5. We need to grow up and learn that disagreeing doesn't mean we don't love each other. Grown ups learn to work through the differences. 6. We need to grow up and become accountable and responsible so there is no need to suspect each other. You don't need to police me, I don't need to police you. 7. We need to grow up and stop allowing our parents and friends from coming between us. This is our marriage, not theirs. 8. We need to grow up and stop shouting and provoking each o...

HOW A MAN CAN MAKE HIS WOMAN FEEL SEXY...

1. STARE AT HER WITH DESIRE A woman feels wanted most by how her man looks at her. Men are visually stimulated beings so she will look to see if your eyes tell her 'I want you.' 2. LET HER KNOW WHEN SHE TURNS YOU ON She feels good when she knows she arouses you. If you are near her and with a hard on or thinking about her when you two are apart and find life in your boxer too hard for comfort; let her know. She wants to know she has an effect on you; even after years together she wants to know she's still got it. 3. PRAISE HER BODY Speak it, let her hear you talk so good about her sex appeal. 4. NOTICE HER EFFORTS If she gets a new hair do, a new dress, if she works out; let her know you are paying attention. 5. PROTECT HER FROM HERSELF A woman can sleep feeling sexy then wake up doubting her sexiness. One negative comment from someone can easily make her question her appeal. She might look at herself and not like her body weight, size or shape and she lowers ho...

Everything In My Marriage Changed When I Got Pregnant

I turn twenty-seven this September, and I have been married for almost a year now. Before we got married, my husband was quite the doting partner. He was always in my space and just couldn’t get enough of me. That was one thing I loved about him. It made me feel like he needed me to function properly. That’s the pace our relationship grew at, until we got married. A few days after we got married, I found out that he was cheating on me while we were dating. He had even cheated two weeks before our wedding. I confronted him about it and he admitted it. “Yes, I cheated before we got married and I’m sorry for that. But I want you to know that I respect our marriage vows so I will not repeat that mistake. It ended when we got married, trust me on that.” It was difficult but I forgave him and we moved past it. Apart from that cheating thing, the few months of our marriage were good. We were always hot for each other. I felt that was going to continue for a long time. And then I g...
