TEARS OF MARRIAGE PART 21 - 32

*Part 21*

*Date: 22/04/2020*

My heart was in my hand when the knob turned and the door opened. I came fac to face with my wife. From the look on her face, I sensed danger. I had received her slap earlier and I didn't want to get a second one. I waited for her to usher me in or maybe burst out. She didn't, instead she stared at me with tears filled eyes. U didn't know why she was crying. I felt like hugging her and wipe away the tears that rolled down her cheeks but how could I start? How could I do it when I knew she was a good actress? " Greg, who bled in your car and why didn't you inform me that you had an accident?" She finally broke the silence. "Am sorry my love, I have not been involved in an accident. I helped my colleague to the hospital." I replied honestly. I didn't want to lie to her for I knew the truth would set me free. "Who was he if I may ask." She asked stressing the he in her question. With that , I knew trouble was cooking if I ever mentioned a she as the person I took to the hospital. I went silent for some time giving her time to cool down. I wanted to know how she would react to the news that I took Chelagat to he hospital. "My dear she is my colleague at work." The moment I said this, her madness exploded. "Greg, don't tell me it was your harlot Chelagat because you will not like it in this house." She yelled. She was right. But how do I tell her that I took her to the hospital because she was bleeding from an miscarriage? Before I could explain to her, Chelagat called me. I looked at my phone them my wife. I picked the call and put her on loud speaker. "Hi my dear." She greeted me. My wife almost snatched my phone from me but I managed to keep her away. I just wanted her to know the truth so that she can stop thinking that I have an affair with Chelagat. "Hi too Chela, hope you are well." I replied. "Am better Greg, I swear Sharon is lucky to have such a caring husband." "Thank you for the compliment Chela. I thank God for everything." I replied. "Thank you for saving my life Greg, your actions have made me love you more.... I wish..." She was still talking when I felt a sharp pain on my forehead. My wife hit me with a cooking stick. I didn't see her pick it up from the rack. My phone went off. " I knew it, I knew you have been sleeping around with that bitch. Today you will know me." She yelled. I just stood there and looked at her. Rage accumulating in my heart. For sure, I had never bleeped another woman since marrying her. I was getting fade up. This drama was too much. For once I felt like crying. I made a wrong choice. I could have listed to my sister but it's now too late. With two children, I cannot divorce her above all, I could not imagine living without her. I loved Sharon and she was my wife. Does she really love me? "Greg am tired of this marriage, am tired of staying with a man who sleeps around with other women and can't even satisfy me in bed." Her statement touched my heart, I had never known that my wife isn't satisfied in bed. When I married her, she seemed comfortable with everything we did between the sheets. "Am sorry darling..." I tried to explain but she cut me short. "Sorry yourself and your women you sleep around with. But remember what a man can do a woman can do better." She said and left for the bedroom. I stood there for almost twenty minutes thinking. What should I do? Accept Fidelis' proposal? Call her dad.....

I picked my phone and dialled my sister's number. I needed time to be away from my wife. Maybe I had become a boredom to her and she needed time to be alone. The stress I was going through was killing me. Slowly I was being poisoned. The poison that would kill me anytime soon. "Yes bro, how is your stubborn wife? Amekupiga leo?" My sister said jokingly as usual. But today I was not in the mood to joke. I was not ready to stay here even for a single day. Maybe after things have cooled down. "Siz, am sorry for the late night call. Can you please accommodate me and my children for the next few days?" I asked her without answering her question. My children were already with her and I was the one to join them. "Oh bro, you are always welcomed here. You can stay as long as you want. That woman will kill you one day." She replied. "Thank you siz, we shall talk more when I reach there my dear." I told her before she could ask the reason why I wanted to to live in her house when I was a married man.
I know most of you will ask me why I was to stay with my sister. First my sister was my confidant. She was the only person I can tell my mind. Am sure when I cry she will wipe my tears dry. Two was because of her heart. My sister has the best heart. Very accommodating and always ready to help me whenever I needed her. Three was the fact that she was my elder sister. She was the motherly figure I held to. She has always been a role model not only to me but my entire family. I remember dad once told her to ensure non of us failed to go to school and to be honest, she became more strict about this more than dad himself.
I went to the bedroom and found Sharon busy doing her make up. She was dressed in a tight miniskirt with a bareback too that held her boobs tight. When she saw me, she took the pillow and tried to hit me with it but u dodged. It missed me and hit her mirror sending it down shattered. "Umepasua kioo yangu? Unajua ni ya pesa ngaoi?" She shouted reaching for the lampstand. I knew want to expect next. She was going to hit me with it. I moved to the wall and waited for her to attack. She hurled it at me and I moved to miss it. The weight of the stand sent her on the floor. Unfortunately, she landed on the broken glasses that teared her flesh mercilessly. I knew she was in pain. She stayed on the ground longer than I had expected. She didn't cry neither did she move. My heart ran fast. The sight of blood oozing from her body touched my heart. I loved her and it was my duty to help her. I bent down and tried to raise her up. She could not stand, her eyes were closed. This is when I noticed a deep cut on her forehead from which blood was flowing. "Sharon my love, Sharon," i called shaking her violently. She remained silent. I quickly took out a bandage from the first aid kit in the house and wrapped it around the wound. I didn't want her to loose more blood. I then ran out of the house and opened my car, I then went back for her. I carried her to the hospital; the same hospital I had taken Chelagat in the morning. When the doctor saw me, he just shook his head as my wife was wheeled to the emergency ward. "Who is she?" The doctor asked. "My wife" I replied.

It was an emergency leaving the room. I didn't carry my phone with me and now my wife is admitted. She had lost alot of blood and she need transfusion. Since there was no blood in the bank, I had to give her my own blood. Luckily, I am a universal donor so she didn't need any other person to help. Before I went to give her my blood, I thought of everything that had happened to me in my marriage and how my wife got into this situation. I felt like leaving her to fate but the love for her in my heart could not allow me do that.
After donating blood, the doctor told me to leave since my wife had no signs of improving. She must be in the hospital for as long as she was unconscious. He informed me that the wound on her forehead was deep and he feared she might have fractured her skull. Since it was late, the X-ray was to e conducted the following day. I wanted to see her before I leave but the doctor insisted that I could not. I drove back home feeling lonely and deserted. I needed my wife around. The desire to go to my sister's place disappeared. I needed my wife more than anything else.
On reaching my house, I found seven missed calls and four texts. All the texts were from a strange number, the same number that had recorded two missed calls, one missed calls was from my sister while the remaining three were from Fidelis. I decided to call my sister first. I explained everything to her and she consoled me. She gave me the encouragement I needed and regardless of being in bad blood with my wife, she still offered to take care of her while I was away to school. She also took the responsibility of taking Ken to school and also baby sitting my daughter for the time being. I told you my sister has a golden heart in her chest. Who else could have done this to me? That why I love her.
After talking to my sister, I called Fidelis. I didn't know if Henry was at home but since she had called more than once, I thought it wise to confirm what she wanted to tell me. "Hello handsome man." She greeted me. With such I was sure Henry was not at home. ",Yes Fidelis, niambie." I replied. "Greg I love you and I missed your voice so much. I wish I could have you by my side now. I feel lonely in this house." She lamented. "Can we talk about this later Fidelis?" I replied. "It's okay handsome, but promise me you won't break my heart please." She said before I could hang the call. "It's ok Fidelis. We shall find a solution." I replied. She blew me a kiss on the phone then hanged the call. She then texted me. ",Greg, Sharon is lucky to have you as her husband. I envy her." I just laughed the n called the new number.
"Hello, Greg." A feminine voice came through. I tried to figure out where I had heard the voice since it was familiar. Ooh she was the lady I gave my number the other day in the pub. " Yes, who is this please?" I pretended not to know her. "Am Angela, we met in the pub the other day." "Ooh I remember. Am sorry I got your missed call." "Greg, we need to talk. If you have time Please tell me when I can talk to you." "What do you want us to talk about?" I asked. Am not the type of man who runs to talks with strangers. "It's your wife." She said and hanged the call

I wanted to hear what she had about my wife. Angela. This girl might be having the answers to my unanswered questions. From the way she talked, there was more than what it meets the eye. What do I do? Request her to come to my place? No this was a terrible mistake I was to make. A married man should not invite a woman in his matrimonial home when his wife is in a critical condition; sick to be precise. What if we met at the same pub I met her the other day? This was out of mind too since I only went to the place because I had an issue with my wife. For now there was no problem, my wife was hospitalized and I cannot take advantage of the situation." Let me see if I'll get time to talk to her. After all my wife remained my priority. Her information might only be hurting to my heart." I told myself as I went to the kitchen to prepare something to eat. I had not eaten anything apart from the drink Fidelis bought me during the day.
I was I the kitchen when I remembered Chelagat. I had not called her to confirm if she was well and maybe ask her why she took the risk; Abortion. I was sure she had aborted the child and it was not a mere miscarriage. So I left the fish boiling and decided to call her. "Hi Greg." She greeted. "Hi too Chela. Hope you are well girl." "Am doing better Greg, thank you for everything." "Welcome." I replied. "Can we talk later please. I have a visitor in the house." She requested. "It's ok." I said as she hanged the call. After the call she sent me a text. "Henry is here." I read the text and shook my head. Honestly I hoped against all odds that it was not the Henry I knew; Fidelis'husband. To confirm my worries, I decided to call Fidelis just to see how she would talk over the phone but my call went unanswered. It hurt me but there was nothing I could do. Thirty minutes later, I received a text from her. "Am sorry my prince. I was in he kitchen and my phone was charging in the sitting room. Let's talk tomorrow. Henry is in." Mmmm, so he is in the house. Who is this Henry that Chela was talking about? I went back to the kitchen to serve my fish. I was sure it was ready judging from the aroma that filled the house. Just then, Chelagat called. "We can talk now Greg. He just left." She said. "It's ok, let's talk after my supper please." I replied and hanged the call. Things were not adding up. Anyway let me hope there was another man dating Chelagat. I could not imagine the wrath of Fidelis upon her. Not such a little girl.
I called Chelagat after my supper. I wanted to talk to her more than any other person. I just wanted to know who was the man; Henry she was talking about. "Hello, am done." I said after she picked the call. "Thank you Greg. I just don't know how I can explain this to you but let me tell you the truth." She started even before I could ask her anything. It's like she had sensed what I wanted to hear from her. "It was all Henry's plan. He told me that we wee going to the hospital to confirm if indeed I was pregnant. He took me to a certain clinic in town where the doctor examined me. They left me there and had a talk after which they returned and the doctor injected me a certain drug that I don't know what it was upto now. On my way home, I started feeling abdominal pains and the next thing I remember is I found myself in he hospital. I lost my child Greg." She explained and started crying. I tried to calm her down but she could not listen to me. I could not listen to her cry for long. Her tears touched my heart. I felt the pain and decided to hang up. "Who is this wicked Henry?" I asked myself as I went to the bathroom. That's when I remembered m car was still unwashed and now my wife's car was also blood stained. How was I going to go to school tomorrow? I pitied myself as the water from the shower washed my fatigued muscles.

I could not sleep in the house when my wife is in the hospital. I decided to drive there. I had to see her. I loved her and she was my beloved wife leave alone being legally married. When I arrived at the hospital, the gate was already closed and the guard could not allow me in. I tried all sorts of sweet talking for him to understand me but all in vain. Finally I had no otherwise but to go back home. It was around eight thirty and the traffic in our small town was clear. I decided to buy milk and bread for breakfast since I was to go to school the following day. In the supermarket, I found the shock of my life. Henry was holding hands of Angela. The girl who had called me claiming to have information on my wife. He was holding her in his left hand as the right hand pushed the shopping trolley. From the way they were behaving, one could easily know that they were deep in love. They moved hitting each her occasionally as Angela giggled. I took my phone and decided to record them from a distance. I just wanted to have evidence. Not just mere hearsay. I followed them from a distance ensuring that they never saw me. After they were done with the shopping, Henry paid with his smart card then kissed her at the car park before they both went to different directions. "Angela!! Angela!! Angela!! Why must you have an affair with a married man?" I shouted in my heart. My heart ached watching this. How will Chelagat feel if it turns out that this is the same Henry who had impregnated her and caused her to abort the innocent child? Should I tell Fidelis? No, a real man doesn't break another man's family in the name of helping his wife. But Fidelis had declared that she loved me. Am sure had it not been that am kind of principled, I could have already bleeped her. Yes. I don't tell you that we almost bleeped. It was on our third meeting. After declaring that she loved me. I remember it was a Saturday and I was coming from church. I met her near the river. She looked distressed and she was crying. Her tears touched my heart and I went to console her. It was a lonely place sorrounded by bushes. The ground was clean and we'll carpeted by the green grass. I held her in my hands so as to give her a leaning shoulder to cry on. Little did I know this was a mistake I was making. She was too heavy for me and we found ourselves falling on the ground. She lied on my top and kissed me. Her kisses were too deep and I found myself kissing her back. I was sandwiched between her thighs. Her dress was up and I could feel her pants on my cock. She then massage my body which was already hard. "Let's do it Greg. I feel you please." Her words jerked me back to reality. I was here with someone's wife. What if someone found us in this state. Will they believe that nothing had happened? Oh my God! I was holding a Bible in my hand and I was from church. "No Fidelis. Am from church." I replied as we disintegrated. "It's ok Greg, maybe next time." She said holding my hands. "Greg, I love you. Always remember that." She said leading me to the main road. "Hi Greg," it was my sister calling. I turned back and looked at Fidelis. She just smiled back. To God be the glory." I have scored to settle with Henry. I must get him soon. I said as I went to pay for my shopping.

I drove home feeling frustrated. Maybe I was bitter in my heart. Bitter because if two things; one because I was now certain that Henry was cheating on Fidelis and two because I didn't know who my wife was cheating on me with. In the beginning, I was suspecting Henry but now my suspicion was quickly fading because if the turn of events. On my way, I received a call from Fidelis. "Greg, am lonely in the house." She complained. "Can we meet up please? Or your wife will cause drama?" She added jokingly. I wanted to talk to her and this was an ideal opportunity. But not in my house. I respect my wife and the fact that am married to her prevented me from doing anything silly and taking another woman to the house in her absentia is considered silly to me. "It's ok Fidelis, where can we meet? " I asked. Instead of giving a straight answer, she redirected the question back to me. "You are the man please. Make a suggestion." I thought of the best place where we could have a talk without raising eyebrows. I remembered last time we met at night I was almost tempted into doing what I never wanted to. "It's ok, what if you came to town?",I asked. "It's ok, give me twenty minutes." She said and hanged the call. I was held up. I could not go to my house though it was already getting late. I parked my car by the roadside and started reading posts on Facebook. I had taken long without loging in. Not because I didn't have bundles but because I had limited time and above all my attention was taken by my wife. So after I logged in I saw a notification in which my wife was tagged in a photo. The photo was of a man that I had never seen before. He was standing at a place familiar to me though I didn't really recall exactly where it was. The photo was captioned "I love you princess." This hurt me and quickly viewed the profile of the man. His details were scanty and could not provide the answers to my answered questions. The only thing I was able to read was that he was at Kabarak university. The same university my wife schooled. Could this be the man who was messing up with m family? Should I send him a friend request or maybe just ask him why he tagged my wife in his photo? No this was nit being a gentleman. What if the man had nothing to do with my wife's sudden change? I went back to the photo and started reading the comments. I wanted to see if they had a cluue to solve my puzzle. "I just miss this place my dear." That was my wife's response. "Ooh welcome one of these fine days princess."The man replied. "I will and I'll come along with my husband. Don't forget to bring Angela along." My wife replied. This conversation got me confused. My wife was planning to visit a place and take me along and also she requested the presence of Angela. This can't be the man my wife is cheating on me with. Waith, did she mention Angela? Mmmm, let me check who was this Angela. I clicked the name in the comments and the photo that came confirmed my worries. She was the same Angela who kissed Henry some minutes ago. In her profile she stared clearly that she was married to Stephen; the man who tagged my wife in his photo. "Ooh poor Stephen, do you know that your wife has just kissed another man?" I pitied him. I was still scrolling my phone when a call came through. It was Angela. "Sorry for the accident Greg, I wish your wife a quick recovery." She said without even greetings. Her statement worried me alot. Which had told her that my wife was hospitalized? Can it be that she was spying on me or she has an informer who was feeding her with information about me and my family? Before I could ask her anything, I saw Fidelis coming and I ended the call. This was getting tricky.

*Date 29/04/2020*

Fidelis was dressed in a red micro dress. I call it micro because it covered less than a half of her thighs. The dress fitted her perfectly showing all her feminine features. When I opened the door for her, the fragrance of her perfume hit my nose. The smell was heavenly and when she stepped in my car, everything changed and took the smell of her perfume. For a moment I saw her in a different perspective. I saw her as a woman worth my love. A woman I could hang out with and make love to. I think the devil was now working on me and he wanted to ensure my downfall. As she sat next to me, her dress pulled up exposing her rounded hips. From the street lights that penetrated the windscreen, her things appeared glittery. She was too tempting. Yes, she knew exactly what she wanted and she knew how to get it. Dressing to kill and for real she had killed it. "Stop staring at me Greg." She said leaning slightly backwards resting her head on the seat. This gave me the opportunity to see her upper morphology. The two oranges on her chest were perfect. Held in position with her bra. My hands started shaking. I was tempted to touch but how could I? How was I to start? ",Am sorry for staring at you, I didn't mean to" I replied with my eyes still enjoying the scenery of her daunting beauty. Henry! I cursed from within. Can you compare such a beautiful woman with Angela? Angela was not the kind of a woman to be proud of. One her dressing code was pathetic. Am sorry but when I met her for the first time in the club, I thought she was a prostitute and am sure we all know how commercial sex workers dress. I also wondered what a handsome man like Stephen saw in her to take her hand in marriage. I hated that woman; I hate her with passion. I have never liked women who wreck other people's marriages. Fidelis had complained to me about how her husband treats her. He had never kissed her not even once and yet I had seen him kiss another woman. I saw him with my naked eyes. "What do you want us to talk about?" I asked just to break the silence."Greg I want you, I want you to love me, just make me feel a woman again." She replied looking at me directly in my eyes. For once I felt shy before a woman. Her eyes looked as if they were shining. It was as if she could read my heart with her eyes. My lips wanted to yes yes but my heart was with my wife in the hospital. She remained my wife and I loved her. "Fidelis, you are a very beautiful woman and am sure no man can resist you." I told her. "But Greg you are a man and you have resisted me on five occasions." She said showing me the five fingers on her left hand. She still had her marital ring I her finger which remime that she was someone's wife. Real men don't sleep with other people's wife's regardless of how beautiful they are nor how troubled their marriages are. I believe am a real man and I have to uphold that. But how do I make her understand that I just can't date her? How can I tell her that I can't love her the way she wanted? "Fidelis, the truth is that I love you but..." I could not finish the statement for Fidelis was up in jubilation. She pulled me closer to herself and kissed me.......

The kiss from Fidelis made me mad. She kissed me as if her life depended on that kiss. I don't know why but I found myself kissing her back. The sensation of having her lips on mine made me close my eyes. It was so sweet kissing her. She held me tight with her tongue swimming in my mouth taking captive of mine. It was sweet, sweeter than I ever expected. I didn't know how she moved from her passengers' seat and joined me on the driver's seat but I just found her sitting on my lap. Her dress was now up above her waist. I could see everything that her mom gave her. She was dressed in a white undergarments. It was the only cloth that covered her lover anatomy. We were both breathing heavily. My second head had taken control of me and my brain stopped working. I could not reason. I found myself fiddling her boobs pressing them with my palm feeling her erect nipples. She leaned on my chest with her breath now heavy. From where she placed her head, her dark hair brushed my nose giving me a sweet smell of her hair oils.We we're in Dreamland. My rod was threatening to break from my boxers. I needed it as much as she needed it now. She was on top of me when I saw a vehicle coming from a distance,it's headlights were full and the vehicle seemed to be coming very fast. I pushed Fidelis aside. A siren was now heard, it must be an ambulance, a fire rights or the police. These vehicles have a right of passage and I had to remove my car from the road. After two minutes, it was an ambulance that I saw. It belonged to the hospital where my wife had been admitted. It's sight restored my sanity. Was it my wife whose condition had deteriorated and she was being taken to the referral hospital?I quickly took out my phone from my pocket only to find ten missed calls from the doctor who was attending to my wife. I called him back but his call went unanswered. This made me mad. I had messed up. I have not been there for my wife when she needed me most just because of Fidelis; another man's wife. "Am sorry Fidelis, this is not right." I told her after we disengaged. "Please let's go home" I added opening the door for her. She looked at me for almost a minute in silence. Tears were now swelling in her eyes. I knew what that meant. She was not willing to leave but we had no option. "Let's talk about this tomorrow Fidelis. I need to see my wife." "Greg, for how long will you continue to deny me this chance of having you?" She shouted. "Am a woman and I need sex too." She added. "I understand Fidelis, but you don't expect us to have sex in the car, you are such a treasure and doing this in the car lowers your dignity. Let's just plan for it please." I explained to her. In real sense I didn't want to bleep her again but I didn't want her to feel rejected. I wanted her to remain my friend as we both remained faithful I our marriages. But one thing I was sure if was that Henry was cheating on her. Maybe it was her right to desire having me in bed but to me I had no evidence that my wife was cheating on me. There was no way I could bleep another woman, not even after confirmation that indeed Sharon was cheating on me. It's better we solve our issues in the house. Two wrongs have never made it right. "It's ok Greg, just know I love you." Fidelis said pulling down her dress as she left the car. I sighed then drove to the hospital to check on you wife.

Part 29


At the hospital gate, I found the same stubborn security guard I had found some hours ago. This time before Iwent to talk to him I prayed. ",God please soften the heart of this person." What I didn't know was the fact that this was one of the guards who cannot be swayed. He believed in keeping all the instructions given to him and surely he didn't allow me in. From his talk I could easily deduce that he was from the Repentance and Holiness church. The guys you cannot convince otherwise. Regardless of the fact that he had denied me entry, I was determined to find out if my wife was in the hospital or not. "Now that you can't allow me in, did you see the patient who was taken out by the ambulance some thirty minutes ago?" I asked him. "Yes, I saw a woman being whisked from the Ward. She looked injured but I could not see anything more than that since she was sorrounded by nurses." He responded. I could not wat for further explanations neither did I want to ask him more questions. Guilt was eating me up. I had failed my wife. I went back to my car and wept bitterly. "Forgive me Sharon, I didn't mean to be away from you when you needed me most, I have failed you but remember I love you so much. No other woman can ever be take your position in my heart." I lamented as tears washed my cheeks. I don't know for how long I was there but when I reached my house, it was minutes past midnight. I had not eaten and I was supposed to be in school the following day. I went to the bathroom, freshened up them went to my bedroom. It still had scattered glass all over. This sight reminded me of my precious wife. "Darling, let me hope you are safe. May God heal you for me." I mumbled as I collected the broken glad that had cause my wife to be hospitalized. What I didn't know was whether my wife was safe or her condition had worsened. All in all I believed God was in control. Before I slept,I took out my phone and kissed it. It had the photo of my beautiful wife still in her wedding gown. She was beautiful and attractive. The humble woman I married. I just wished time could have gone reverse so that I have this beautiful and loving wife of mine. I prayed for her then dozed off. My wife lay by my side as we sang our love songs. She liked Lionel Ritchie's song "Just go" and that was the song that buzze from her phone. We were alone in the forest. The forest where our love blossomed filling the air with it's fragrance untold. She held my hand and pulled me closer to herself. "Greg I love you." She said bending forward to kiss me. I went for her lips and tried to kiss her but she broke into a run, I knew what she wanted; I must work for the kiss and the price was to catch her. I followed her, her beautiful body in a long white dress made her beauty glow.
I reached her and tried to grab her by the waist but she eloped me. What I didn't know was that she was in for it. After two steps, she went on the ground facing up. I laid on her too and started rolling on the grass holding each unto each other with our arms wrapped. I felt so sweet nad kissed her but ooops I woke up holding tight to my pillow kissing it. What a beautiful dream it was. I wish it could have been real.

Part 30

Date:04/05/2020

I woke up feeling dizzy. I had not slept enough. My alarm sounded when I was still dreaming of my beautiful wife. In the dream she was more beautiful than Fidelis. Her hugs and kisses were perfect and I felt loved. I remember the poem I wrote for her in the dream

*My beautiful wife*
*You are the best I* *have*
*With you I feel* *complete*
*Without you I'll be* *finished my love*

*Your eyes glows* *with love*
*Shining brighter* *than the stars in the* *sky*
*Making your face to* *glow in radiance*
*An awesome beauty* *to behold*

*I love your smooth* *skin*
*Natural yet it glows*
*What a perfect* *match I have*
*I'll love you forever* *darling*

*If time could be* *reversed darling*
*And I was given a* *chance to choose* *again*
*I'd still choose you* *forever*
*For you are the best* *companion to* *me*

I meant every word in the poem. My wife remained the most precious gift that God had ever given me and I loved her. Nothing could ever change that.
I had three things to do for the day. I had to check on my wife's whereabouts, I had the responsibility of checking on Chelagat and finally I had to go to school. What can I start with? I checked my phone just to confirm if the doctor had called me again but he hadn't. Instead I got a message from Angela. "Greg, I miss you. We need to talk please." This text pissed me off. How can she say she misses me yet she had a man yesterday? Had I not seen her kiss Henry; Fidelis' husband? She must be a wicked woman. I concluded. After taking a shower, I had already decided on how to carry out the activities for the day. One I had to check on my wife. She was my priority. Then check on Chelagat on my way to school. I knew this would take time so I decided to call the principal jus it inform her that I might be late for school. I told her the truth that my wife was hospitalized and I just needed to check on her before I go to school. She gave me the permission but insisted that I check on Chelagat before reporting to school. I knew the time to be at the hospital. It was by seven because visitors were not allowed in fifteen minutes past the time. So I drove faster than usual and at six thirty I was already at the gate. I found the same guard I was with the previous night and without any word he allowed me in. I too my card to the nurse on duty who checked the patients' record. Just to confirm whether the patient was in the hospital. After finding my wife's name Sharon Akinyi Akoth, she looked at me and shook her head. "Am sorry Sir, you can't see your wife. She has been taken to the theatre for operation." She told me and closed the file. Come back in the evening please." She added. I just hated myself more. So the doctor was calling me to inform me that my wife needed an operation? Why didn't I pick the call? I had failed my wife and I owe her an apology. "God Please save my wife." I said the prayer as I drove from the hospital. I arrived at Chelagat's place some minutes to seven. I thought I had done something wrong because as a man, am not supposed to be here at this time. She needed her privacy too. I pressed the bell twice and she opened the door for me. At the door, I saw a male's pair of shoes. This was a clear indication that she never slept alone. She was a woman who was not married, why these shoes? Chelagat looked at me, I didn't expect her to talk but from her body language, I sensed all was not well.

PART 31💔: TEARS of MARRIAGE
“How are you feeling today?” I asked her after a long silence. “Am well Greg, only that am very tired.” She replied without adding any other word. This was not her norm. Maybe I was being an intruder in her affairs. “It’s ok, I just came to check on you. Am on my way to school.” I replied then left. She then entered the house and locked the door after her. Whose shoes were they at her door? It must be Henry. I said to myself as I drove to school. But why should she house Henry when Henry was a married man. Does she know the danger that awaited her for sleeping with other women’s husbands? God forbid!

Personally I can’t imagine bleeping someone’s wife. What if I get caught? What name would I have made for myself. Thank you God I want brought up in an Adventist home. Our church does not allow such. Even polygamy is not allowed then what of infidelity?
Before I arrived at school, I decided to call Fidelis just to confirm whether Henry was at home. My call went unanswered. I didn’t bother calling her again because she was a married woman and you never can tell maybe her husband is at home or maybe she is mad at me for failing to bleep her the previous night. Two minutes later I received a text from her. “Henry is at home my prince. I love you.” Her text send mixed reactions in my mind.

One I had left Chelagat’s house being sure she had a man in the house and two Chela had confided in me that the man who impregnated her was a married man by the name Henry. Does it mean there is another Henry responsible for this or the same Henry I knew? And now here Fidelis is telling me that she loves me yet she is with her husband in the house. Women!! Who Bewitched you?
 
Tears of marriage.

part 32

I enjoyed working alongside miss Betty as I came to know her real name. This beautiful damsel was from Kyuso in Kitui county near Mwingi town. She was a good hearted lady and it was just amazing being by her side. I don’t know why but I just came to like her, not only her dressing code but also the way she carried herself out. An amazing soul she was.

After school hours, I went back to the hospital to check on my wife. I had not received any communication from the doctor and that worried me. At the gate of the hospital, I met a guard whom I knew; John my highschool classmate.
This time I was lucky because I had no reason to explain myself for he just allowed me in after a brief introduction and it was also within the visiting hours. At the reception, I met the same nurse who had attended to me earlier and when she saw me, she shook her head. This was an indication of bad news. From her face I could see that all as not well. “Am sorry sir but your wife is still in the theatre.” Her statement broke me. How can my wife be in the operation room for over twelve hours? I thought she had a minor injury. Why the time of operation?” I asked myself not knowing that that was the beginning of a two weeks long daily visit to the hospital with my wife in coma due to a botched open head operation. My hospital visit became a norm. I interacted with the nurse who had been attending to me and later came to know her name. She was called Faith, a kalenjin lady from Nakuru.
Faith, just as her name is, she was full of faith and kept encouraging me that all was well. Had it not been for her, am sure I could have lost hope. “Greg, everything in life happens with a reason and the reason is always good. You should thank God for everything, be it good or bad.” Faith could tell me whenever she noticed that all was not well with me. Today, faith remains the best friend I have and I owe her happiness. To be a nurse is a calling and sure Faith had been called to serve.

For the two weeks I went to the hospital, Faith was there for me. My wife could not look at me. Her condition worsening as days passed. I remember one day, when I was standing by her bedside, she started coughing. Her cough was so dry and she looked as if she was going to die the next minute. I cried. I had tried to control myself for a long time but this was too much for me to bear. Tears started rolling down my cheeks. I didn’t know where Faith came from but the only thing I can remember is her wiping my tears. “It’s well Greg, take heart.” She whispered to me. That how I found myself loving her. Not the love between a man and a woman but natural love. Love that can make you give up your life for another person. That how I felt

I don't know why the devil chooses to use a woman to bring down a man. But what am sure of is that a woman can make the best companion in a man's life and help him achieve great heights in life. Here I am Greg, a married man to one beautiful princess; my Sharon cuddling another woman who is married too. Not that we both don't know but just because Fidelis has not been attended to by her husband while my wife is in the hospital in a comma. Am a normal man; men have two heads which never function at the same time. When the lower head is active trust me the upper head doesn't function. This was the case with me. I had lost focus and all my senses gone. The sexual desire had build up to the brim. Fidelis was in for it. Am sure even if I tried to stop her she couldn't accept. She had tried not once but the last five occasions all which had failed. "Greg let's go to the bedroom." She suggested. The mention of the bedroom was her mistake for it reminded me that am a married man and no other woman should step in my bedroom other than my wife. The respect I had for my matrimonial bed cannot allow me to take any other woman there in. I remember having cautioned Nasambu; our house help not to clean my bedroom. I was my solemn duty to clean the bedroom oncase my wife failed to do so. "No Fidelis, we can't do this." I replied disengaging myself from her arms. "Greg why this now?" She asked trying to pull me to herself but I resisted the pull. I had regained my sanity and slowly my third leg was becoming flaccid. "Fidelis, it's too early for us to engage in sex, moreso we can't do this when my wife is hospitalized. Let's wait for the right time. Good things take time." I explained to her. My explanation seemed to land on deaf ears. "Greg what do you think i am?" She asked removing her dress exposing her pointed boobs and her curved feminine body. My mind told me to leave but my legs refused. I wanted to go to the bedroom but I found myself moving towards her. I just don't know how I found myself in her arms, kissing her again. She lowered herself on the seat and pulled down my boxers. I had already removed her panties. Then the unexpected happened. We heard a knock on the door. A knock that destabilized everything. Fidelis looked at me with pleading eyes. It's as if she was saying we just finished what we had started but how? The door was knocked for the second time but this time harder. "Dress up please." I told Fidelis as I pulled up my boxers and ran to the bedroom and slid myself into a tracksuit. I came back and found Fidelis dressed. I thank God she had a short hair. Otherwise making it up could have taken her time. I opened the door when it was knocked for the third time and there stood Chelagat. "Come in Chela." I said holding the door for her. "Greg I've called you but you didn't pick my call." She said even before she entered the house. "Henry is just giving me headache and I don't know what to do." She added. The mention of the name Henry irked me and am sure she noticed it. I hoped against odds that Fidelis had not heard it but I was wrong. When I turned I could see it in her eyes.

God has a way of saving His children. Today He sent Chelagat to my place just to save me from bleeping Fidelis. I don't know why it always happened like this. But today I was touched. Fidelis had gone through much and I needed to appreciate her. Should I bleep her? But what if my wife discovers or on the other hand her husband discovers that I bleeped his wife, what will happen to both marriages? Divorce. If I divorced my wife will I be happy if I married Fidelis? No, "bibi ya wenyewe is a no go zone." I remembered the warning from sauti soul. Bleeping someone's wife was like committing suicide. I was not ready to die.
I opened the door and Chelagat met Fidelis. Shock registered on her face. Maybe she had seen her but she didn't know where the two had met. This was evidence from the long stare at Fidelis. She then turned to me," Greg am sorry for interrupting your plans. I didn't know you have a woman here."she said turning to leave but I stopped her. ",Chela, this is Fidelis. She the wife to Henry who works with my wife. She came to give me company now that my wife is not around." I lied. Lying was not something that I liked in my life. I hated myself for lying. The truth was that Fidelis had come to be bleeped and was it not for her coming, am sure I could have swam in her well of life.
The mention of the name Henry's wife jilted Chelagat. Confusion was written all over her face and anyone who knew her could have noticed that she was tensed. Why should she tense? Was the Henry she was dating the husband to Fidelis? Maybe not.
" Let's have a seat." I offered which she accepted reluctantly. I then went to the fridge to find them something to drink but I could not get anything good for them. For the past one week I had not bought anything for the fridge and I had not even used it. "Am sorry ladies. I'll have to cook for you. There is nothing here." I announced. " I just knew it and that's why I brought you this." She said handing me a carrier bag she was carrying.The contents there in made me salivate; a well cooked fish and aromatic rice. The smell alone was enough to satisfy my hunger. But how was I to eat with Fidelis watching me? I went to the kitchen to bring plates but again they were all dirty. Being a man and living alone in the house was just stressing. For a week I had not washed utensils. Chelagat wanted to help me wash them but Fidelis jumped in. "Hey, what do you think you are? Greg's wife? You brought him food and I was silent and now you want to wash utensils here as I watch? I won't allow that. You found me here and I'll wash the utensils and even clean up the house." She said heading to the kitchen. Chelagat just laughed and went out leaving her phone and shoes. She wore the sandals she was carrying in her bag. Twenty minutes later, she came with household shopping. Fruits, vegetables, drinks and all kinds of cereal. "Greg, this is just to say thank you for everything." She said giving me a hug before she left. "Greg what is the meaning of all these?" Fidelis asked me angrily. She was so angry that it scared me. I had never seen her like this before and I had never expected to see her this way. "Am sorry Fidelis, this is a colleague." I tried to explain but Fidelis could not listen to me. "I'll be back shortly." She said as she left the house.

PART 36 💔; Tears of Marriage
By Greg wanyonyi

It didn't take long after Fidelis had left before receiving a call from the doctor. I was needed urgently in the hospital. That was the message delivered by the doctor without giving further detail concerning the same."What is wrong doctor? Is my wife okay?"I asked panicking. I didn't want anything wrong to happen yo my wife. She was mine and I loved her. For once I didn't know what to do. Whether to wait for Fidelis to come back or rush to the hospital to check on my wife. Finally, decided to make a call to Fidelis to inform her that I had left the house and she should not come back. I dialed her number but unfortunately the phone rang
from the house. Just on the seat that she
was sitting on before Chelagat came. She
had left the phone and there was no way I
could communicate to her. My wife or
Fidelis? The battle was won by love and I left the house for the hospital. A real man should never exchange his love for his wife for another woman. Regardless of where his wife was. I was a real man and so there was no way Chelagat was going to take my wife's position. Before I left, since I didn't want to hurt Fidelis, I wrote a note indicating where l was and apologising for leaving without informing her. I also gave her instructions on where to keep the keys in case she left before I came. With that I drove to the
hospital and found the troublesome gatekeeper. I just felt like slapping him after he tried to impede me from the hospital. " Boss am not here for a quarrel, I've been called by the doctor and it's seems urgent."| said releasing the brake pedal. "Masaa ya kuona wagonjwa imeisha." He said locking the gate almost scratching my car.I wanted to curse him but I remembered this was against the Advent faith. As an Adventist, I had been taught to keep cool under all provocations and thank to my elders, their advice and lessons stuck in me. Instead of pushing him further; since I knew it would yield no fruits, I called the doctor who came for me. To my surprise, the gatekeeper also tried to block the doctor from allowing me in. "This man. May God be with him." I said after parking my vehicle."Am sorry sir for everything." The doctor said after we reached his office. "What is it doctor? Is she fine?" I asked the questions in quick succession. " I've just called to inform you that your wife needs a second operation.From the observation, she has fluids filling up her brains and if we don't do something,
