I DON'T WANT MY WIFE SMILING Episode 18
Henry walked in and practically pushed Emerald away from him, he gave me a look that
told me, he
to meet his mistress...Emerald ran up to me shattered....
“Mummy, Daddy did not even hug me, Mummy....She has taken away my daddy’s love
from me....My Daddy doesn’t love me anymore....” Emerald said crying so loudly
“No don’t say that Emerald, things are just complicated right now, things will get better I
promise and if it doesn’t, there will always be a way out”... I said comforting Emerald.
Emerald was her Dad’s Egg so she felt really bitter he treated her that way...
Gold! Where was she? I pulled Emerald and ran up the stairs, I didn’t want her doing
anything terrible to herself. As we got upstairs, I heard Henry shouting at Margaret...
“What I am saying is you shouldn’t have let them come in, you should have let them stay
outside till I came, I would have gone to look for another accommodation for them, I wasn’t
the one who asked her to leave, she left on her own” My heart shattered hearing the love
of my life saying this about my children and I, the charm Margaret was using was definitely
a strong one, but on the contrary I heard her say
“Henry, we had an agreement, you are not to leave your wife because of me...I am a
Christian and I have a conscience. If I was in her shoes, I wouldn’t want to be thrown out
of my husband’s house because of a new woman... Henry, this can work out...
My father had three wives and I have learnt from his mistakes.... I know how
dehumanizing it is when a man Favors one woman more than the other...Just be a good
father and husband to us all and I will be fine “I heard Margaret saying....
“It is easy for you to say, is it possible for me to have two women I love under the same
roof looking at each other as rivals, it will run me insane!”
Henry said angrily as he walked out.
He bumped into Emerald and I. He gave me a long stare that said “I hate your guts”....
I walked towards my old matrimonial room with every step like a brick was on my
body...Margaret had the decency to keep My matrimonial room untouched, while She
converted Gold’s room to their Matrimonial room....
As I stepped into my room, Margaret followed me, and she spoke to Gold
told me, he
to meet his mistress...Emerald ran up to me shattered....
“Mummy, Daddy did not even hug me, Mummy....She has taken away my daddy’s love
from me....My Daddy doesn’t love me anymore....” Emerald said crying so loudly

I walked towards my old matrimonial room with every step like a brick was on my
body...Margaret had the decency to keep My matrimonial room untouched, while She
converted Gold’s room to their Matrimonial room....
As I stepped into my room, Margaret followed me, and she spoke to Gold
“ For a 14 year old girl, you spoke wisdom, If I was not pregnant maybe your words could
have made me leave your happy family, but unfortunately I am carrying your father’s baby
and that has given me a permanent place in your lives....I am not as evil as you think I
am , I am also just looking for where to lay my head, I also want to be happy ” as she said
this I saw tears flowing from her eyes, to avoid us seeing her tears she ran from the
room....
I cautiously moved further into the room where Gold was seated on the floor in a corner...
“Mum, why didn’t you tell me?” Gold sounded unbelievably calm
“I was trying to save and keep you from this kind of trauma” I said sitting beside her on
the floor
“But which is worse Mum? We could have prayed together, maybe it won’t have gotten
to this level”
“I didn’t want to disturb your academics”
“I am not going back to school until that woman leaves this house, this is not her place”
Gold said affirmatively
“That is not going to happen any soon, you heard her, she is carrying your father’s baby
and that has given her a permanent stay in your father’s life and may I add, it is a baby
boy, your father’s greatest desire...”
“ I am not angry at the baby, in fact I have always wanted a baby brother too, she is only
helping you to carry the baby, she has to leave and just like Jacob, my education is on
hold till God sends her out” Gold said like she was the boss
“Gold! I am not going to let you tamper with your academics because of my mistake “
“Mum, we all make mistakes, you remember you once told me, when you were helping
me with my take home and I made a mistake while using a pen... I cried saying the mistake
could not be erased because I was using a pen, You said “No matter how indelible a
mistake is, there is always a way to erase it, all you need is to have the right corrector”
Mum, you brought out an ink eraser and erased my mistake, I was able to write the correct
answer afterwards... Mum, I was just in Primary 3, when that happened, but it never left
me”
As she said those words I broke into a thousand pieces, my loving Henry was gone, he
hated my guts, and my children were in pain. Could all these be corrected? It seem Gold
was listening to my innermost cry, because she said
have made me leave your happy family, but unfortunately I am carrying your father’s baby
and that has given me a permanent place in your lives....I am not as evil as you think I
am , I am also just looking for where to lay my head, I also want to be happy ” as she said

was listening to my innermost cry, because she said
“And Mum don’t bother about us, we will walk our way into Dad’s heart back, No matter
how much he loves another woman, the woman can never take the place of his own
blood”
Emerald and Gold sat beside me on the floor wiping my tears....Then Gold gave me the
best suggestion ever ...
“ Mum, do you remember when the parents of Jesus left Jesus behind, they had to go
back to look for him, Mum, Dad is lost, we need to go back and get him...Do you have
someone you can trust who is spiritual who can join us in this search, like a Prayer
partner....”
I wept, I wept and I wept, My Daughter was stronger than I was, she knew the right thing
to do....
Isokene! That was the first and only name that popped into my heart... Yes, she was a
trusted friend... I had to call her to inform her I was back. At this point I didn’t need
hypocritical Christians who would pretend to be prayer partners and yet would be the first
one to tell everyone what I was going through....
I nodded...
“Who?” Gold asked
“Isokene “
“Who is that? I don’t think I know her” Gold said
“She is my distant cousin, but she is a good person” I said vouching for Isokene...
“Ok Mum, because we don’t want fake friends....Let’s call her”
“ I am taking you out of here now, please get your things” We heard the voice of Henry
as he stood by the doorway, looking straight ahead trying not to maintain eye contact with
us....
To be continued
how much he loves another woman, the woman can never take the place of his own
blood”
