I was getting really worried over the delay of child birth,I started crying to God, since I and my husband were fit medically, I went for more test home and abroad, still I was medically fit,I wondered what the problem was,I was given some drugs to boast my ovulation and still hoped in God for miracles..I prayed earnestly, believing God to hear my cry,and bless my womb..
May was passing through financial difficulties,,, it wasn’t easy on her been a single parent, she had so much on her plate,her children’s school fees,rent and even what to eat,,,,she has been a good friend,given me strength and encouragement, I was happy to have her and Sandra around…I pleaded with my husband and we assisted her the best way we could…
My husband gave her some money to start up something that can always put food on her table… May decided to take her kids to her parents,so that she can concentrate on her business.
Some months later I tested positively on a pregnancy test,and everyone was happy… My husband was more than happy to be an expectant father,,, my friend and family were happy….
I had a little baby growing in me,it was the best experience ever,,,although I had some difficult times,sicknesses every now and then but the joy of motherhood was worth it….
I soon delivered a baby bouncing boy,,,it was a dream come through for my family and I,,,
We appreciated God for his faithfulness,
Life was becoming interesting and wonderful….
Until my husband's behavior changed….
He comes home very late, he was full of excuses as to why,,,,
He had little or no time for me and the baby,,,,
He became a different person from the ID I had dated in school and married….
Worse of all,he wouldn’t even give me money for my up keep nor that of my baby,,,
I begged him again to allow me work and make my own money since giving me money was a problem…
He insisted I would dare not work….
I was gradually losing my mind,,,
I didn’t know what to do….
I asked him several times if I had wronged him. In any way,he should tell me so that I could apologize,but he didn’t say anything…
I traveled to Benin and informed his parents what I was experiencing in my home, his sisters were against his sudden change, they travelled with me to Benin…..
His parents were surprised, as to why Idahosa would change for the worse,,,
They decided to follow us to Lagos to talk some senses into him…
After getting to Lagos, we met his absence. He left a note in our bedroom that he travelled and won’t be back until two weeks…
I didn’t know where he went,I called him several times but he wouldn’t keep my call,but sent a text that I was disturbing him…
His parents had to go back to Benin the next day, because they couldn’t wait for two weeks.
I called Sandra and she said she had travelled on a business assignment for two weeks…
May was the only one there for me,,
She was a friend indeed….
In all these ,I didn’t tell my parents, I didn’t want them to be disappointed in my husband…
I prayed and wished my husband would return to his usual self,to the ID I once knew,married ,and that I gave my heart to…
