MY MARRIAGE, MY PAIN
Part 7 " Dare needs to know that you are serious about the increment of the monthly money for the upkeep of the house," Rita said while choosing her words carefully. " Okay, go on. I'm listening," I told Rita. " You need to leave your husband's house for some time. That way, he will know that you are serious about that money," Rita said calmly. " What? You want me to leave my husband over this?" I asked Rita over the phone in shock. " Don't get me wrong. I didn't tell you to leave your hus...

MY MARRIAGE, MY PAIN
Part 6 That night, I didn't sleep well. The scene of Dare nearly hitting me kept playing in mind. I couldn't help but feel like I was doing everything wrong. * I can't give up now. I need to keep up if I want to get the desired results,* I told myself repeatedly until I slept off. The next day as usual, I ignored Dare and the children even though they greeted me and tried to have a conversation with me. Dare prepared breakfast and also packed their lunchboxes while the children had their bat...
MY MARRIAGE, MY PAIN
Chapter 5 For the next two weeks, I totally ignored my husband. I hardly give my children attention. Each time they come to me for one thing or the other, I either tell them that I'm busy or ask them to meet their father. At this point, the children are fully aware that I'm having marital problems with their father. They pleaded with me countless times to forgive Dare for any wrong he had done to me. But I told them that their father knows what to do if he wants peace in the home. Dare repor...

Chapter 4 Again that night I slept on the couch in the sitting room. Dare didn't bother to ask me to join me in the bedroom. He just walked past me quietly and made his way to our bedroom. True to my words, I stopped doing all the house chores including cooking meals. Dare and the children took charge of the house chores. Dare's kitchen skills became handy. He started preparing meals for himself and our children. Initially, he included me when preparing the meal until I warned him sternly to...
MY MARRIAGE, MY PAIN
Chapter 3 I stood in the kitchen for a long time lost in my thoughts. After what seemed like forever, I finally concluded on what to do. I will make the house uncomfortable for Dare until he increases the money he gives me monthly for the upkeep of the home. Even though I don't see the result now, I'm certain that I will get it in the coming month. I smiled at my wonderful conclusion but I suddenly paused when I thought about my children. *How are they going to take it?* I asked myself silent...
MY MARRIAGE, MY PAIN
Chapter 2 I slept on the couch in the sitting room that night. Dare came to the sitting room to ask me to join him in bed. But I nearly hit him and aggressively asked him to leave me alone. Dare reluctantly went to bed without me. It was the first time in our marriage that we will sleep in different rooms in the same house. I found it difficult to sleep without my husband beside me. But I was too angry with my husband to be in bed with him. I managed to sleep after staying awake for a long ti...
MY MARRIAGE, MY PAIN
Chapter 1 " Please, take this money. It's for the upkeep of the house. I know that it's small but please, manage it. I will increase it once my salary is raised," my husband, Dare said while giving me a wad of cash. " Ifemi, thank you so much for this. It's true that things are expensive in the market but I will manage it. I love you so much," I told my husband sincerely and gave him a kiss. My husband took his leave. The children rushed out of the dining room and ran after their father. I lau...
SHOW LOVE
Show love to your loved ones While they are still here with you Don't wait until they are gone Don't stand by their graves With tears flowing like endless river Showering the love you couldn't give Them when they were alive Don't go to their graves to beautify Them when you couldn't beautify them When they were alive even when you could Say beautiful things about your loved ones Don't wait until they are gone Then you write beautiful lines to honour them Life is like vapour, one min...

THE WEEKEND
It's Friday, the beginning of the weekend The busy week finally coming to an end Oh what a joy it is to have some time to Yourself and your family A time of relaxation and fun Away from the stress that comes from Our hustle in a bit to meet daily needs Fun, the bustle of life Yet take heed lest you be lost in the Euphoria it brings you and indulge Yourself in pleasures that bring Nothing but tones of regrets later Take a breath and look back at the Week that has just ended The route...
POSITIVE MINDSET
A failure is not a person who fails to succeed in whatever he/she does but a person who fails to try again because he/she failed once or a couple of times. Don't give up on that dream because you failed! Stand up and try again! Keep trying until you achieve that dream. © Mercy Martey Michael #mercylovestoriesandpoems #HelloNircle #notes #keeptryinguntilyourfantasybecomesareality #positivemindset #successmindset #breakingnewground
UNTANGLE AFRICA'S CHAINS, PLAYING MY PART
O Mother Africa, you stand Tall among other nations You are blessed with vast Lands and natural resources You are blessed with vast Cultural heritage and artifacts O Mother Africa, you who bore A race who were once the envy Of many nations, now stand as A ridicule to many nations You are now a caricature of What you used to be O Mother Africa, you, a free-born Who stood firm in love and unity Now entangled with the ropes of Deception, corruption, tribalism And religious fanaticism ...
TEARS OF REGRET
