As Bekky was packing her cloths for tomorrow, her phone started ringing

Bekky: Hello love how are you doing, I know you must be enjoying with your husband
Cassandra: please come over to my office right away”.
Bekky: I thought you left already, hope all is well? ”
Cassandra: just come please”
Bekky left what she was doing and rushed to Cassandra’s office looking worried. on getting to her besty office she saw Cassandra crying her eyes were already swollen”.
Bekky: Oh my goodness! Sandra sweety what is wrong? why are you crying? I thought you went home already to tell your husband the good news”.
please say something to me
Cassandra: You won’t believe what I saw when I got home.**(she started crying again).
Bekky went closer to her and hugged her warmly, patting her on the back, ” baby girl, its alright. no matter what happened you don’t need to be crying like this. you know your condition. its alright dear, I’m here for you . all is well my sister.
Cassandra: I saw him trying to rape Amaya, Samuel tried to rape my sister.
Bekky: Oh my God! Samuel did what? no no no, its not true, the Samuel I know would do no such thing”.
Cassandra: I saw it with my own eyes, my sister was even crying. my innocent little sister. oh poor thing!
Bekky: how did you know he was trying to rape her?”
Cassandra:Amaya said so, I know she can never lie to me and I trust her”
Bekky: and you don’t trust your husband?”
Cassandra: its not like that. I ….
Bekky: then what is it like? tell me? you have been living with your husband for years has he ever in any way cheated on you?”
Cassandra: No. but”
Bekjy: let me finish. he has never cheated on you, even when you have been denying him of his right. even when you have not been fulfilling your obligations as a wife. even when you have been selfish. even when you have been taking him for granted, taking his quietness as foolishness yet he remain faithful to you. now your sister told you that he tried to rape her, instead of you to look deeper into the matter you all bought what your sister told you because you claim to trust her, and that she is innocent…
Dear don’t forget that not all that glitters is gold.
Cassandra: its not like that dear. just that he might have tried to force her because I have been starving him of it”.
Bekky: Oh! so you even know you have been starving him of s-x. you have not been doing what you should be doing. yet you never consider how he must be feeling. even if he had tried to do it.
I don’t blame him one bit. you are to be blame Cassandra! you are!

EPISODE 14
Lawrence got to the hospital and went straight to where his wife was.
He saw her sitting on the bed looking worried. He went closer to her and playfully covered her eyes.
*
Bekky: no need for that honey. I know its you
Lawrence: Oh Bekky, when will you ever learn to be romantic. instead of you to pretend that you didn’t know you chose to spoil the fun. Its not fair ooh!
So how are you doing?
Bekky: I’m good and you?
Lawrence:I doubt that because your face looked worried. tell me what is it?
Bekky: Alright my mood detective machine”. its about Cassandra.
Lawrence: What about her dear?”
Bekky: She is pregnant
Lawrence: wow that’s a great news but why will you worry about that? you should be happy not sad”.
Bekky: yes I am but”
Lawrence: But what dear?.
**(Bekky told him everything that happened).
Lawrence: No dear,the Samuel I know is a very responsible man.
I believe there is more to what she saw. She just misunderstood everything. You should talk to her as a friend dear so that she won’t do what she will regret.
Bekky: Alright honey, I have heard you. I will talk to her again. So how are my lovely angels?”.
Lawrence: They are all fine. Just missing you”
Bekky: really? I am missing them more”.
Lawrence: If so, then drop the act and come home with me”.
Bekky: I don’t get you dear
Lawrence: I know you are just faking your sickness.
Bekky: jeez how did you know.
Lawrence m: I over heard you talking to Cassandra about it but I decided to play along and show you that there is no big deal in doing house chores because I thought you were just trying to run away from your responsibilities but unfortunately for me, you ended up proving me wrong..
I’m really sorry dear for the way I had been treating you.
I was never grateful to all you do rather I made you do more work.
I thought I was doing the right thing and was so blind to see that I was wrong. please forgive me sweety.
Bekky: I’m really dumb founded. I don’t know what to say to you. but am happy you understand now”.
Lawrence: yes I now do and I promise to change. I and the kids will be helping you in the little way we can and I will never complain again”.
Bekky: Alright stop apologizing. I hold no grudge against you. all I wanted is for you to understand me and thank God everything is fine now”.
Lawrence: I love you mi corazon (my heart) I really do.
Bekky: I love you more sweety. please I need a favour from you”.
Lawrence: What is it dear?
Bekky: I want you to drop me at Cassandra’s house.
I have something important to do there please.
Lawrence: Alright ma’am. your wish is my command. *(he said and they started laughing).**

Cassandra got home and met Samuel in the parlour probably waiting for her but she cared less.
She went straight to the guest room where she intend to spend the night. She was removing her shoes when Samuel entered and sat beside her.
Cassandra: What are you doing here?
Samuel: Honey please I’m so sorry for what happened but believe me, its not what you think . You are getting it all wrong. I didn’t try to rape your sister. I would never think of such please”.
Cassandra:Sam I’m really not in the mood for this your unwanted explanation please save it for another day because am not ready to listen to it”.
Samuel m: You really don’t trust me do you? You and we have been married for years but it seems you never knew what I can or cannot do.
Do you know how much it hurts to know that you see me as a rapist? Oh God, this is really too much! your sister has been the one trying to seduce me for a while now”.
Cassandra: Oh now she has been the one trying to seduce you?
Samuel: yes. believe me dear”
Cassandra: Then why Didn’t you tell me?
Samuel: Because you were never available. its the hospital here and there. you never had my time nor sit to talk like couple we are. you are always busy Sandra!
Cassandra: oh now its my fault right? its my fault that you tried to rape my sister!
Samuel: Oh stop it Sandra! I didn’t do any anything. in fact I’m very tired of you accusing me of what I didn’t do. Think whatever you like for all I care.. *(he thundered and stormed out of the room surprising Sandra)
Oh God please help me *Debbie cried**
Samuel heard the door bell rang and went to check who it was. When he opened it, he saw Bekky standing at the door.
Bekky: hi”
Samuel: Hello come in”
Bekky: Thank you. I want to have a word with you”
Samuel: Alright, I’m all ears”.
Bekky: Did you do it?
Samuel: of course not, I didn’t or you don’t believe me either”.
Bekky: No dear, I believe you. where is Amaya?
Samuel: She must be inside her room”.
Bekky: Alright I will be back. **(she went straight to Amaya’s room and knock before entering) ”
Bekky: Hello Amaya”
Amaya: Good evening aunty Bekky”. How may I help you. *(She asked pretending not to know the reason for the August visit).**
Bekky: You already know why am here
Amaya: Yes I do so please go straight to the point”.
Bekky: Why did you chose to betray your sister like that Amaya. What did she ever do to you to deserve that?
Amaya: What are you saying? don’t forget I am the victim here”.
Bekky: You and I know you are lying so stop deceiving yourself”
You see dear. What you are doing is very wrong. am very sure you have been trying to seduce him and as if that wasn’t enough, when you were caught, you accused him of trying to rape you because you know your sister would believe you. She love you dear, she provides for all your needs, makes sure you lacked nothing but what did she get in return? Betrayal, backstabbing.
Oh Amaya why did you chose to destroy your sister’s home by creating problems between her and her husband?”.
Listen to me dear, What ever a man sow so shall he reap and dont do to others what you will not like them to do to you. Your sister’s marriage is in your hands now. Its only you that can save her marriage by telling her the truth .
Amaya: But aunty….
Bekky: No Amaya, don’t say anything, just sleep over it.
And another thing you should know is that she is pregnant.
Amaya: Wow are you serious?”
Bekky: Yes I am so for the sake of the child dont separate him/her from its father with your lies. so do the right thing dear. **(She told her and left on getting to the door she turned and said)… “Remember that Karma still exist”.
It might not caught up with you today or tomorrow but definitely it will, someday so sweety, correct your mistakes now that you still can to avoid its great consequences. good night and do have a sound sleep.
She left, closing the door behind her.
