I AM NOW MARRIED Episode 10 – Princess Stories
Please pardon my grammatical errors*👇👇👇👇👇
“Hey…..babe….. sunshine wake up. It’s morning already” Mark whispered, gently tapping her to wake up. Kemi opened her eyes lazily.
“Wat time is it” she asked as she yawned.
“7am…..we over slept” He said as he smiled at her
“Ohh…..” She said trying to recall what Happened the previous night.
She remembered thinking about how to relay her little secret to her husband
“I have to tell him today no matter what.” She thought within herself
“Dress up, let’s go get you some clothes” he said as he was already set to go
💖💖💖💖💖💖
They went to the mall close to the hotel to get some dresses. Kemi sensed he was spending too much.
“It’s only me you’re buying these dresses for now. We’ve bought enough already.” She complained, rejecting the one Mark had wanted to add to the quite numerous ones they had already bought.
“Okay this is the last one.” He said
“No thank you” she protested.
“Sweetheart come on. That we’re married doesn’t mean I can’t spoil you, or does it?” He asked
“No, but that we’re married means we have other responsibilities to take care of.” She responded
“That’s when we have a baby and I can’t wait to have them” he responded, the response that made her heart skip a beat.
“But now we’re alone, let’s enjoy ourselves….we won’t be this free when they start coming you know. The only time we’d be this free is when we’re old and we have lost such appetite or pleasure. Just let me spoil you a little huh” he said pleadingly.
“Okay fine but buy shoes instead” she said.
“Nope. I brought money for that one”
“Wait where did you get the money from.”
“I saved it” he said shortly. He actually had wanted to use it to start something, probably developing they bought a year ago.
“Okay but now I want shoes. So give me the money remaining for clothes as my upkeep…”s she said stretching her hands, expecting money to be placed in it.
Mark smiled at this and handed the money to her as they went making their choice of shoes and some undies
💖💖💖💖💖💖
“Thanks for today honey.” Kemi said as she laid on the bed, worn out.
“Anything for you baby” he responded, removing his shoes.
They had branched at a restaurant and eaten so they were obviously full, and weak.
“I love you.” Mark said as he hugged her.
“I love you more.” She whispered as she kissed him
“But babe, there’s something you need to know” she said as they disengaged
“Yes I’m listening” he said as he gave her his rapt attention
Mark knew there has been something his wife is hiding. How he got to know? Esther told him to come the next day so she could reveal it to him. So he took a three day pass and went home early that day
“I’d rather hear it from her” he thought to himself as he asked for permission from his boss.
So obviously, he ran away from his office and home just for him to get his wife to tell him herself
“I’m listening my love” He said as he saw she was scared to talk. He pulled her close and made her look at him.
“Listen to me. Baby no matter how bad the secret may be, it wouldn’t change the love I have for you. My love you don’t have to be afraid, I won’t hate you. I won’t regret marrying you. I married you because I loved you and still love you. Despite the initial rejection, I still insisted on marrying you because I know you’d give me a home. You’d be a good mother, sister, wife and best friend to me. So please don’t be afraid” he said as tears rolled down her cheeks.
“I’m really sorry but…..” She was interrupted by a phone call for Mark. He checked the ID and it was Taiwo calling
“Pick the call.” Kemi said gently.
“You’re my wife. And I also give you the title this day that you’re my best friend too. So she isn’t important. Whatever you want to say to me is the most important thing right now. I’ll call her later” Mark said, stroking her hair just for her to feel free to talk. She shed tears the more and hugged him.
“I can’t face him” she thought to herself so she stayed in that position to talk
“Babe I was a club girl before you met me.”
“I know” he responded
“I had three abortions during that period and the doctor said my womb is too fragile to carry a baby. He doubts if I could bring one to this world ever again.” She said as she let her tears flow
Mark was thrown into confusion. He had mixed feeling about the whole thing.
He was happy he got to her that from his wife and not a third party and at the same time sad, he had always wanted Kemi to have children for him.
He hugged her tight as she was still cry.
“It’s okay my love. Please don’t cry.” He managed to say
He remembered when he was at a service and the pastor preached on love, saying every love would surely be tested, including our love for Christ. The pastor also made mention of so many Christains who became martyrs because of the love they had for Christ
“It’s easier said than done” he thought as he encouraged himself to be a man
“It’s fine…..stop crying. Listen to me” He said as he disengaged himself from her, making her to face him
“I still love you. I always will. To be honest, I don’t know what to say but I won’t change towards you because of this okay” he said, holding himself. Kemi nodded and hugged him
“This is really a secret. A big one at that” he thought to himself.
His phone was still ringing tirelessly
“Pick the call now. We’re fine” Kemi said as Mark answered the Taiwo’s call
💖
“Hello”
“Hey… wassup”
“I’m okay how are you.”
“I’m fine. Just lonely”
“How’s the home. Hope you’re taking care of it and hope Tunde isn’t disturbing you either”
“No it’s not. I just called to tell you that I’d soon be leaving for the States in two days time. When are you coming home?” Taiwo asked
“Tomorrow by God’s grace” Mark responded
“Okay good, I’d still be home by then. Can I speak to your wife please” she said
“Yeah sure” Mark said as he handed the phone over to her
💖💖💖💖
“Hello.”
“Hello dear. How are you?”
“I’m fine thank you”
“Good to hear. Can you move away from your husband? There’s something I want to inform you of.” Taiwo said, making Kemi to giggle.
“Taiwo I don’t keep secrets anymore. I’m done keeping secrets. The last one almost ate me up. So tell me, he’ll still hear. What’s up, is anything the problem?” Kemi said, holding his hands reassuringly.
“Okay. Esther came her earlier today asking to see Mark. She complained she didn’t see him in his office when she went looking for him there. She said she has something important to tell him and I’m sensing it’s your little secret.” Taiwo explained as briefly as she could.
“But from the look of things, I think you’ve told him, right?” Taiwo said further
“Yes I have.” Kemi replied
“Good. And he didn’t overreact” she asked, twas more or less like a fact.
“Well yes…” She smiled as she pecked him
“You see? I told you. I know him too well. Anyways, be expecting her call anytime tomorrow. And babe, be prayerful o. That girl is crazy and from the look of things, she’d go to any length to snatch that good man from you” she said
“No problem….I’d be ready for any of her actions.” Kemi said with confidence.
“Okay I’ll be traveling to the States soon, I’ve told your husband. Since you guys don’t keep secrets from each other anymore, he’d tell you. Enjoy your honeymoon” she said
“Thanks dear. Bye” Kemi said as she ended the call
“So….what did she say?” Mark said, holding her from behind
“That Esther came looking for you at home” she said briefly
“Wow. This is serious. What does she want from me exactly” Mark asked
“Whatever it is she wants, she’s not getting it. You’re taken, you’re my husband, you’re a married man and you’re mine forever and she should learn to accept that. If she wants to learn that fact the hard way, then I have no choice but to comply” Kemi said with so much confidence.
“Wow. That’s the wife I married…..my iron lady” he said as she gave her a peck on her neck
She smiled and faced him, kissing him passionately and then disengaged
“You see even a kiss from you, She’s not getting it. You’re mine now” Kemi said as Mark smiled
“I’m glad you’re back to the woman you used to be, always praying, always knowing what next to do and actions to take. I love you” Mark said as he hugged her
“I love you more” she responded as she resolved to enter into warfare prayer that night
I AM NOW MARRIED Episode 11 – Princess Stories
It was the third day of their “outing” and that was the day they were to go home, at least to spend a little time with Taiwo before they’d finally say goodbye.
“Babe, are you done packing?” Mark asked
“Packing, it’s still early in the morning. Let’s stay here a little longer” Kemi said pleadingly
“I love this place. …..”she said further as she allowed herself fall on the bed like a child.
Mark smiled and agreed “we’d leave in the afternoon” he concluded
“Yes Sir” she playfully agreed
“But babe, before we go, I want us to go do a HIV test” Kemi said
“What? Don’t tell me you’re” he said as his eyes pooped out
“No silly, I just want us to do it. I feel something is about to wrong” she briefly explained
“Okay…..let’s go now then since I’m already dressed. But you’d explain to me where this is coming from okay”He said
“Sure, I will” she said as she smiled
“Be sure of this Esther, as long as I have God with me, I’d always be one step ahead of you” she thought inwardly as she resolved to tell Mark her encounter last night.
💖💖💖💖
“You’re both negative Sir. This is the result of the test” the Doctor said as he handed over the statement of the result to him
“Thank you very much Doctor, we’re grateful” Mark said, rising up to shake hands with the Doctor (😱😱😱in this coro period🤪)
“You’re welcome” the Doctor replied as the couple left his office
“So babe, mind telling me what this is about?” She asked as they got into the care, heading back to the hotel.
“I will, but I think it’s better you see for yourself” she replied to which he nodded, understanding that that’s how she does when there’s danger ahead and it’s been settled in the spirit.
💖💖💖💖💖💖
They got home late afternoon and were warmly welcomed by Taiwo who had been expecting them since morning.
“Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn 🤗🤗🤗……our wonderful couple is back. Tell me, how did it go” she said, facing Mark
“As planned” he smiled
“And……how was it ” she asked facing Kemi.
“Under control” Kemi responded
“Good. Can I talk to my bestie’s wife b4 I’d be stripped off that position” Taiwo asked, smiling at Kemi
“You’ve already lost the title and it has been given to another” Mark said in smiles
“Ohh😭😭😭” Taiwo cried playfully
“Oya iyawo wa (our wife)…..let’s talk” Taiwo said as she dragged her to the kitchen
“How did it go? What did Esther say? Did she talk about the secret? What was Mark’s reaction?” Taiwo asked impatiently
“Relax babe…..she said she needed to see him urgently. She suggested a restaurant or somewhere but Mark insisted at his office instead. Then that same night, it was like her plan was revealed to me. It was like a dream, I didn’t really understand it but from the little I know, she wants to like against me that I’m HIV positive or something. I’m not sure yet but I won’t take any chances. I’ve done the test, me and Mark and we’re both negative. I’ve also told Mark to record their conversation as carefully as possible” Kemi said as she stared at her amazed.
“How long have you been a Christian?” She managed to say as she was still surprised at her wisdom and ability to be one step ahead of an evil plan
“It’s been a while now. Why?” Kemi asked
“Hmm…… Mark is in safe hands. You may a young woman, but in the spirit you’re more than matured. You’re really a wife and I’d like to imitate you” Taiwo said
Kemi smiled “Thank you. So when are you leaving” .
“Tomorrow. But I feel like cancelling the flight” she responded
“Why? You’re not ready?” Kemi asked, concerned
“I am. I want to learn from you. I love your spiritual maturity. Esther still think I’m on her side so she told me exactly this thing u said you dreamt of. I also want to be spiritually active as well” she explained briefly
Kemi smiled at this
“Winning a soul” she thought to herself
“Should I come some other time?” Taiwo asked jokingly
.”Ehn…. Nooooooooooooooo” Kemi said with all seriousness, Making Taiwo laugh hard
“Okay I’ll cancel my flight and I’d go back in two weeks time.” Taiwo said
“Please allow me to stay. Okay one more week” she pleaded, seeing Kemi wasn’t too comfortable
“Okay fine, one week” Kemi concluded
“But my husband has the final say” she said
“Sure tell him…..later then, let me not keep Mark waiting for too long” Taiwo said as she left
“Still need careful with her……there’s war ahead so take no chances” she heard a voice within
💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
“so what were you guys talking about.” Mark asked as Kemi entered the Master’s bedroom
“Nothing much…..she asked about Esther and I told her everything” She said briefly while Mark shook his head
“What. I did something wrong?” She asked
“No babe but….come here” He said as he pulled her to himself to whisper
“It’s a family issue babe, you don’t have to tell anyone. It was the secret you shared with Esther that she had wanted to use against. My love please learn your lessons.” He said as he kissed her neck
“I can’t resist this body” he said as she smiled
“Ahh….chill o” she said in laughter
“Okay….I’ve heard you. Let me prepare something for us to eat. Lest I forget, Taiwo said she wants to stay one more week, that she wants to learn Christainity stuff from me” she chipped in but he seemed displeased.
“It’s obvious you don’t like it. That’s why I told her I would tell you first.” She responded to his gestures
“Just be careful okay” he said
“No problem” Kemi smiled as she made her way to the kitchen
💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
💖💖💖💖💖
Mark had resumed work in his office and reported to duty
He was sorting out some things that had piled up as a result of his short holiday when he heard a knock on his door.
“Yes please come in” he replied, obviously expecting a visitor
“Hello handsome” Esther said as she walked in majestically
“Hi Esther,how are you?” He asked
“I’m fine and how’s your wife” she asked
“She’s doing well” he responded and waited for her to start talking
“Enough of the greetings” she said as she waved her hands in the air and rolled her eyes simultaneously
“What I have to tell you is more important buy befoe that, where have you been for the past three days, been coming here but your secretary told me you weren’t around” she asked with concern
“I took a break to sort some family issues” Mark said simply
“Hope everything is fine now” She asked
“Sure…..” He responded with smiles
“Okay so here….and here have this ” she said as she handed two things over to him: a device and a paper, something like a result from the hospital
“What is all these” he asked as he received them from his hands.
“Just a little something you need to know concerning your wife. So it happens that your lovely wife can’t be the father of your children and she didn’t let you know before you married her” she said with a smirk
“How does that feel?” She asked.
“Surprising” he replied honestly
“And do you also know she’s HIV positive?” She added. Mark narrowed his eyes as he didn’t believe what he was hearing
“What?” He asked surprisingly
“Yes. She doesn’t deserve to be your wife cks she keeps so many secrets” she said as she stood up.
“However, I can make you the happiest man on Earth. Think about it, our life together, our children playing around us. Baby I have no secrets and my womb is fine neither do I have a dark past mmm….just think about it” she said whispering, after which he kissed his neck and cheek
“It’s okay. I’ve heard all you’ve said” he responded. Just then, a message popped up in his computer, meaning his attention is needed urgently
“Well, as you can see I’m busy so you’ll have to excuse me please.” He said, while attending to his computer
“No problem but think about what I just told you” she said. She wasn’t surprised he didn’t flare up as she had always known him to be a calm person
Mark nodded in response and she left. He waited for Ten minutes to be sure she was gone and wasn’t eavesdropping so she placed a call
“Hello sweetie…..yes she came, she left about ten minutes ago….I have it all recorded…..how did you know she’d lie about your HIV status……babe we would talk later okay” he said as he dropped the call
“Work, work , work” he muttered to himself
