I though I could be dedicated to this blog but I found out it requires more time than I can spare. So if I have disappointed any of my readers am sorry. On the other hand check this out. What is your opinion on love? Have been watching “brothers and sisters” lately, I find it very interesting. I mean this guy had an affair and left her with $10 million dollars after he died (if am right for those following the program too). Do you still call that a mistress (the other woman)?
I remember when I was in primary school my uncle met his high school love for the first time after 20 years of been apart. Everyone knew they were in love back in the days (as I heard from my story teller aunt). I remember the first time I saw her I knew something was different. My uncle has never been this happy. I was happy for him. He found him a best friend. He re-introduced her to everyone but my mum was not happy about it.(i was too young to understand). She already knew it would be a disaster. All of a sudden they started getting too close.My uncle was spending more time with her than his own wife. The weird part is we loved her. She was the nicest lady I ever met and very humble. Its not that we don’t like his wife (we love her too) but she stopped visiting us since we never told our uncle to stop bringing his new friend to our house. I don’t blame her but my uncle is a grown man too. we did all we could but he stood his ground. My mum tried telling him but he did not listen. She cant reject her lovely brother because of some decision he made. My mum never liked her at first because she thinks it’s the woman doing this to my uncle (you should understand what I mean by that statement). Then he brought her to my grandfather funeral. You should have seen my mum (her crazy self) she was mad. She started screaming:
Mum: “why did you bring your mistress to my father funeral?” iwa buruku niyi ooo. eyan to ni iyawo dont life this kind of life. o ma ni itiju (abi you no dey shame)
Uncle: aunty mi kilode, don’t call her my mistress you know her by her name. she use to be your friend” pls don’t make her feel worst than she already did. You have to start accepting it because she is sticking around longer than you think.
Mum: ki lo so?
Uncle: she is not going anywhere. We are getting married.i let her go the first time and am not loosing her again. He said it.
Common uncle you don’t have to ruin my mom day on her father funeral(and you too mum whats your business it his life oooo). You should have waited till the next day. Well, everyone thought it was wrong but they were fine with it. weird right?. They all knew them as a couple when they were kid. does that make it right?
Anyways, they are happily married now with two adorable kids that I love. Still have the first wife who lives in a different house. My mom got over it with time. She loves her very much now. And she is still the nicest and the most honest and humble lady have ever met. Am not really into polygamy but I can’t really agree or disagree with his decision. still dosent make it right. Why can’t he just let it go since he was happily married? What kind of selfish person is that? Or maybe greedy is the right word. Let’s say he was not happy? Does that give him the right to break another woman heart to fulfill his own happiness? Every time I think about this it makes question that word love in many different ways.Oh, well. enough of my blabbing now blabbing now. It’s been a while I spoke to my uncle. I guess I better call him.
