*HE CALLED ME A CHEAT*
Episode 6
After walking around for almost three hours, I was already worn out and so was Jeddy. He has been asking me to get him something to eat but I ignored him because I had no money on me. My savings were in the house. I found shade and sat down with my son, I wanted to cry but I kept pushing the tears back because I don’t want Jeddy to see me cry.
When Jeddy’s rant for food was becoming unbearable, I had to do something before he starts crying. I opened one of the boxes hoping to find money in it. Luckily for me, I saw an Atm card which John gave to me to use for buying things but I hærdly make use If it since he also gives me money for upkeep.
The Atm brought joy to my soul. I stopped a bike which took me to the nearest bank where I was able to withdraw one hundred and fifty thousand nairas, I wanted to withdraw more but I couldn’t as that was the limit for a day. I was able to pay the bike man and also buy food for Jeddy.
After feeding Jeddy, we both board a bus to the other part of the town. I didn’t want to be too far or too close to John. That night, Jeddy and I pass the night in one of the cheapest hotels, and the following day, I was able to get one-room accommodation.
All through this period, Jeddy kept bombarding me with questions but I either ignore or simply tell him to pray for mommy.
I was able to get some little home equipment and we began living life. Most times, Jeddy would start demanding to see his Dad and twin brother and once he makes such demands, it takes a lot of cajoling to calm him down.
Some other day, I tried to withdraw some money but on getting to the bank, I got to know that the Atm card has been blocked. Then, I knew that I had to get a job in order to fend for Jeddy and I. I ignored my morning sickness and went in search of a job, it was a stressful experience as no one wants to give a secondary school drop out a job.
Luck suddenly smiled at me when a nursery school offered me the post of a cleaner with pay of forty thousand naira. The pay was nothing close to the weekly allowance I do receive from John but I had to make do with it as I had no choice.
I enrolled Jeddy into the school and his fees were subtracted from my pay. Since the school closes at 2 pm, I also engaged in pure water business. I hawk pure water and soft drinks and that was what catered for our daily needs.
I terribly miss my first son Jerry but I was rest assured that John would take good care of him, I knew John would never bring another lady home lest his mother forces her on him.
Life goes on and I kept living it one day at a time. Within three months, I became a shadow of myself as there was no time or money to use in caring for myself, myself, i was just twenty-five but looked like a forty years old woman. By this time, my pregnancy was already protruded and I was able to register with a clinic.
When I was just trying to pick up the pieces of my life, I received another news that drained me.
