One hot afternoon Mr. Wole my
course mate called me. He asked about my relationship status I knew once it was
another hook up coming lol I guess my senses are alert to these things.
Well I
was single at that time so he told me about a family friend that was a
practicing doctor in the states and he had just started his own clinic. Hmm
sounds good right? Well I’m not one of those ladies that traveling abroad
trills me. I have a passion for Nigeria and I don’t see myself living outside
this country. (So guys if you are based outside Nigeria I’m not interested)
I told him I was not
interested in living outside Nigeria hmm he did not let me rest he said I should
wait till I see ‘doctor’. He showed me a picture
of the doctor I felt he looked too old but Mr. Wole said he was 38 years old,
in my head I had done the math’s that by the time we date for a year he would
be 39 then we get married lets say God is very kind to us I we would have our
first child a year later he would be 40 ah by the time he is 50 our first child
would be 10 oti o! * Mr. Wole was not
looking at that oh, all he saw was a good doctor that would be a good husband
to me. He insisted that I go with him to see ‘doctor’s’ aunty.
We went to see her a week
later. Na wa oh* as soon we go to her house she started calling me their wife
hmm! She asked questions about me which was normal but when it was time to
leave she asked for us to take a picture then she brought two bottles of wine
and said I should give them to my parents then told me she and Mr. Wole would
come see my parents (now did I miss something? I’ve not seen ‘doctor’ yet. I’ve
not even heard his voice and you want to come visit my parents’ lol) I just
smiled and told her ok. She told me that doctor would call me that I was their
princess (like really?).
So doctor finally called. He sounded nice on the phone
for just the first week. He would call everyday, we talked about spirituality
because he was also a pastor (do I want to be a pastor’s wife? Hmm). After that
he stopped calling for almost a month then when he called again he said he has
been busy with work (and you want to marry? so that you will abandon me in the
house. Oh one more thing ‘doctor’ told me he was 42 years old. So lets redo the
math’s date for one year 43 marry 44 years have our first baby 45 years by the
time he is 50 years our first child would be 5 years old hmm). TO BE CONTINUED............
oti o! * - no oh!
na wa oh* - wonders
