Must Read: Single But Living Married - Season 1 - Episode 25

Here comes the day, a beautiful Saturday
morning, shade do call me before that
Saturday but I don’t pick as I have nothing to
discuss with her again, all my expectations
was for Saturday to come and lemme hear her
out. She called around 1pm that she was at
the bus stop, I asked her to wait for me at the
eatery somewhere close to the bus stop…..i
told my friend I want to get something outside
and will be back shortly. I got to the
restaurant, everywhere was busy with people
coming in and out, she had already seated as
I located her where she was…

Shade: Good afternoon
Me: afternoon………
Shade: how have u been……
Me:Fine as you can see, am doing good..and
u? hope baby is kicking…….
Shade: I thank God…….
Me:Gud, so, u said you wanted to see me,
what’s it all about?
Shade: I just want to come and beg you for
forgiveness, I know have offended you greatly,
have offended your creator and mine, my
conscience is not allowing me to rest anytime
I think of what I did……pls try and forgive me
snakie
Me: No problem, u didn’t offend me…..u said
u wanted to tell me how it happened that’s
why we are here..
Shade: (Crying)…..sincerely, I don’t know how
it happened, it was as if jazz was used on me,
All is still a misery to me olorun
Me:You don’t know how it happened? And u
always collect money from me every weekend
as transport fare to his place, you don’t know
how it happened and you were always going
there every weekend for like 3 months before I
knew all what happened, you don’t know how
it happened that you lied to me that Yomi was
your cousin when we started our
relationship,you don’t know how it happened
that you lied to me that one gbenga was
responsible for the pregnancy before I saw the
truth on your phone. U don’t know how it
happened that you couldn’t terminate the
pregnancy so that I wont know about it, u
don’t know how it happened, you fought me
and go back to that house….am not a fool
dear, maybe you can tell me another lie
Shade:Am not lying dear, pls believe me, am
still confuse, I need help seriously, I don’t
know whats happening to me, I cant believe

forgive me
Me: No problem, if you are not ready then no
problem……………I want to start going pls cos
you are embarrasing me with this your tears
already…….
Shade: Am so sorry dear, pls can I beg you for
a favour even before you go
Me: Am listening……..
Shade: Pls am ready to do anything you want,
am ready to terminate this pregnancy even if
its today. All have ever wanted is to spend the
rest of my life with you…..pls don’t leave me
to my fate like this, pls don’t let me suffer
baby……………..
Me: I think I have to go shade
I stood up and wanted to make my way out.

She stood up, knelt down and held my two
legs crying profusely. I was embarrassed as
she was crying seriously…saying “baby, pls
am sorry, pls forgive me, I promised it wont
happen again, pls I want you in my life, pls
forgive me..am sorry for everytyn, have
realized my mistake, pls forgive me”
We became the focal point as everybody
stopped all what they are doing and
concentrated on us, more than 30 people and
I could hear people started murmuring, “guy,
pls forgive this babe now, she has been crying
and begging you for the past 30mins, pls
forgive her abeg”………One chick said “mehn….i
can imagine myself begging a guy like this,
this babe try ooo”…….”bro, abeg forgive her
now….mistake has happened already, pls try
and move ahead, she truly loves you”
One old couples walks towards us and the
man held me by the shoulder “My boy, I don’t
know you ooo and you don’t know me either
but look at my age, if a girl of nowadays can
do this for you in public then she definitely
love you and I don’t think there’s any offence
beyond forgiveness, pls forgive her and move
ahead together…I beg you in the name of
God…pls and pls forgive her, we are all
pleading on her behalf”

I was dump founded as I became the victim
and didn’t know what to say again, how will I
start explaining to people what she did for me,
I didn’t know when tears started rolling out of
my eyes……..The old man pull her up and ask
us to hug each other and move ahead, she
hugged me immediately and I was a bit
reluctant to respond but the old man and his
wife convince me again……
Shade: Pls am very sorry baby….am so sorry, I
love you so much baby
Me: Ohk, have heard you
Old man: Not that you have heard her..is she
forgiven
Me:Ohk Sir, she is
Old Man: (laughed)…that’s my boy
Shade: Thanks so much baby
Me: Go and do what you said you want to do
between now and next week Saturday, then we
are back together
Shade: thanks so much dear, am even doing it
tomorrow dear..thanks so much
She hugged me again as everybody was just
smiling at the end of it but I couldn’t smile, so
many things was running through my mind.

The man gave us his contact to call him and
even requested that we visit him next week
Saturday together and I agreed.
