The love circle

A very calm day had just started, students were situated in the main lecture hall when Sandra came in, she was among the most beautiful ladies on campus. She was popularly known as Sandra the Actress. She was tall brown skin and an adorable girl. That day I came in early in the morning and occupied the front left sit where Sandra used to sit, I was to break out all my homework and assignment that our Financial accounting lecturer had given to us.

"Good morning Seth have you finished your homework, can I have a look"I was among the top students who understood well the balancing of books of account and I was doing well in accounting. She came near me and I was least expecting her to come to me because of all I was just a freshman student at the university, Sandra had a pleasant aura which made my mind roll-roll in thoughts. I gave her my exercise book and she started what we termed as the act of copying and pasting I wish she knew how fast our chemistry was building up. She occupied my mind. I adored her and if wishes were I would make her my girlfriend despite how short we had known each other. I started explaining to her how I managed to work and I was quite sure I was right. All the steps were at my fingertips and I was very careful not to mess up in the process. After 45minutes Sandra had done everything and she thanked me for helping her, she went back to her desk as the lecture time was just approaching, it was our Financial accounting lecturer who had a lesson that morning. In an hour, the classroom was full and the class representative collected the exercise books, as we waited for the lecture to commence. When the lecturer arrived he asked the class representative to take the books to his office and we started working out the given assignment. After he was done, I had nothing to worry about since I had passed everything unexceptional to Sandra who had also passed everything. When our lecturer just stepped out of the classroom the excited Sandra dashed to my desk looking happier, she whispered to me "Am grateful, Seth, today I have something small to gift you." And she dashed out. She left me wondering what kind of gift she was going to give me. I thought of an exercise book, I thought of coffee at the famous food joint bread, I thought of every kind of gift that she was going to give me but all were just assumptions. Finally, break time came and I went out at least to break the monotony of sitting in the lecture. The moment I stepped out of the four walls Sandra was before me holding a juice in her hand, I was surprised and perplexed to see her giving me juice, I said thank you and she finally gave me a hug which raised the attention of two other students around us. Hugs were not prone to freshmen.

After giving me a hug she left and went back to the lecture room. I stood there not knowing what to do but just gazing as if my eyes will pop out of their sockets. One of my friends came and started to caution what was happening between me and Sandra, "Seth are you having a secret liaison with Sandra?" I said no as he chopped a piece of avocado from my gift and headed under the shadow of the villas around, we opened the whole thing and started to enjoy ourselves, as we were having talks. My mind never stopped thinking about Sandra, she tickled my heart, and I wanted to tell her how I was feeling about her but I was quite not sure if she will accept my request.

Things had changed, I had never imagined being loved by my fellow coursemate to be loved whom I never thought could love me. She was from a wealthy family so I didn't know if she can forge forward with me. The lady loved me. I felt like I was the most blessed because she provided me with whatever I liked or anything I needed. She now catered for all my necessities. It was the second year of my Campus life when our love started to grow and flourish when we never knew where it will lead us. We allowed it to flourish and it continued to be perfect. I managed to pass my examinations with good grades semester in and semester out. Sandra's family's financial capabilities enabled her to perform somehow well and so she was not forced to repeat most of the semesters. Sandra was caring and loving, she oftentimes took me to the shopping centers and buy new stuff for me. My lifestyle was as if we were from the same family.

Towards the end of my second year, Sandra's actions changed. I did not comprehend what was happening with her but I wished she doesn't stop loving me. Not too long, I found out that she had fallen for someone and it was not me. It hurt me and I didn't know what to do. It was my first heartbreak ever and I had never experienced it before. Weeks and months passed, and I tried begging her to come back but she never eavesdrops on me. I gave up on loving this gender though I never failed to work hard in class. The real campus love and life had overtaken my loving Sandra and now I was not on her priority list.

Days passed, months and then years. As we all know time is a healer and the pain receded away. I managed to pass my higher education level with first-class Horners and I got a good-paying job in the city. Sandra on the other hand also got a job and it was a coincidence that we met while working in the same organization. Memories used to haunt me not knowing that she was also kind of tormented by the same, what I can say is a miracle we met while on our daily routine. Planned to catch up in one of the restaurants in the city. We met and reconciled by forgiving each other. We got into a relationship again. Love had rekindled and we promised to love each other.

We worked together, I did not know how uncomfortable is it to work with someone you are in a relationship with. We worked for another year without jeopardizing our relationship through many people questioned us.

After agreeing with Sandra I proposed to her about marriage and to my most expectation she said "yes". It was a December holiday, I took her to our home and introduced her to my family, my neighbors, and my relatives. My mother was so happy about the step I had made in life, She was liked by everyone thus it was easy to stay in the village for one month. We came back to the city after staying in the village. Sandra stayed on a different street from me and we mostly met during the weekend. I started planning to officiate our marriage through a wedding ceremony. Within two months everything was ready and we held up a massive wedding ceremony in the city which raised attention in the country. I was so happy to have somebody I could refer to as my wife. I never thought Sandra's parents will accept my request but it was all fine with them. They wished us a happy marriage full of blessings. My parents also congratulated me on getting myself a spouse. We were so grateful to God.

The wedding was now over, and Sandra had to relocate to my place where a new journey started as husband and wife. Everything was fine, we enjoyed our honeymoon in the famous Maldives. The environment in the Maldives was pleasant and we were so happy.

After three weeks of making merry, we came back to Africa and life had to continue as normal. We continued with our work as usual. Two years passed and Sandra had no signs of getting pregnant, I became worried since my parents had started drama over that. I used to receive frequent mobile phone calls from various relatives urging me to look for someone in the sense of getting another wife. My mother could call three times a day trying to pursue me and accept her idea of getting a good wife for me. I ignored my mother most of the time. Without getting tired, she decided to come to the city She was so fierce that my wife got scared. I begged her to go back to the village promising her that everything will be fine soon.

We went for medical checkups to examine our health status and we were all fine. Another year passed. When I was almost giving up on getting a baby with Sandra, one day she came around Feeling unwell. I took her for medication and the results turned positive. She was found two months pregnant. I was so happy after receiving the news. She was also overwhelmed after getting what she was expecting after close to five years of marriage. She had thoughts that she was cursed or bewitched but finally she could have a permanent smile on her face. We came home walking majestically, we felt like walking on air. This good news spread to all relatives and good friends. I knew the news will mark the happiness in my mother and could now sleep peacefully. I had to throw a party to celebrate, finally, my wife was an expectant mother. I knew this child will bring to us a lot of pals and relatives. That night I thought by encouraging my Love.

" What if I told you, You don't have to try again you don't have to fit in You don't have to feel ashamed.

You do have to be free, Yes everyone goes through ups and downs don't share sometimes we keep it in, Be yourself and never feel blamed, For who you choose to be, What if I told you, that today is not the same as yesterday. The other day was rainy but today there is sunshine. You can change even if the weather does the same you were cold now it's time to light your spark to flame.

Feeling down is part of human nature. we feel different hearts and brains Don't let it in vain By putting your soul in the "jail". What if I told you, you need to be weird and stay strange, We are unique to have a change. It's my love for your friends they accept you. Be like the sky no matter what stay blue, Don't feel scared it's life things get better.

Today is today and tomorrow is tomorrow, every day comes with its fortunes and misfortunes."

The following day I decided to ask permission at work, I didn't report to work that day so we had to relocate to a spacious house such that we could employ a house help to help us with the house chores. Not long we had gotten a house help who was almost twenty years old of age. She was a tall but calm lady, I thought why my wife could bring such a lady into our house but I guess she trusted me. She could not imagine I can be like other men who admire their house help. We gave our house help a room which she could use for all of her business without interference.

Days passed, weeks then months. Finally, my wife gave birth to a fine boy child resembling his father like a coin to another. We were so happy that I named the child Seth Jr. During that season my maid had to work extra hard to serve both me and my wife. She could cook food, and bring it to me. During the weekend thrice a day, we started interacting, and having used to each other, I found myself engaging in a conversation with her. Whenever I arrived home I could ask for her presence just for nothing. I didn't know what was going on with Me. I found crossing lines and visited her in her room whenever my wife was not around. She had a perfect smile that could make Igwe himself blink twice before exiting. I knew being used to this lady could lead me to problems but I didn't care whatever. One afternoon, when I was roaming within the house, I saw my house help coming from the Bathroom. She was wearing a towel only covering the"gate" and the other body parts were bearly naked. She was perfectly made beautiful. The moment she saw me, she stood rooted to the ground, I felt embarrassed but I moved forward slowly to her and gave a perfect smile which she returned with the same energy. I hold her hand and she never resisted. we went together to her room and without a second thought she closed the door and dropped the towel down to the floor. I felt surprised at the same time I felt confused about what to do next. She moved to where I stood and she grabbed both of my hands carefully. She whispered to me"you are more handsome" I felt a hot chill run down my spine. without hesitation she started kissing me passionately. in a blink of an eye, she started unbuttoning my shirt, my cook in my trouser was hard and was begging for justice. After she had removed my shirt, she went further to loosen my belt, I was standing like a statue, she finally placed her hand inside my pant and I felt her hand grabbing my cook, I saw a big smile on her face indicating satisfaction placed my cook in her mouth and she started sucking it. My hand also reached her boobs and we were panting heavily. I thought she had missed such a moment for quite a long period. I caressed her slowly without rushing I needed to satisfy myself and make her also happy For a short period, we were in bed, I stroked her several strokes until she cum, I continue without giving a rest until I reached the climax and cum into her. without wasting time I went to have a cold shower which left me feeling fresh. When came back to our room I was feeling guilty about my actions. when I mate my wife I pretend to be nice, I helped her in working for the house service among others. After I had done everything our house help had to cook the supper. That night I didn't want any disturbance since my mind never stopped thinking of my house help Virginia I was not able to sleep at all. I went to watch television until it was midnight. I went back to bed and I was waked up by rays of sunlight. my wife Sandra had already prepared a delicious breakfast. I ate to my fullest after which I had to prepare for the church mass since it was a Sunday. By 9 a.m we were on our way to the church, that day the pastor preached about faithfulness among the couples mostly among married couples, The pastor evangelized and the gospel struck me as if he was disclosing what I had done, I repented over the actions I wished I could have avoided such shameful act. I thought my wife could notice how I was disturbed both physically and mentally but still, she couldn't comprehend. When the mass was over we embarked on the journey back home everyone was quiet, expectorating they were feeling hungry. We went back to the house our maid continue with her work as usual but I was nervous my wife might suspect how she was looking at me with seductive eyes.

Weeks passed, months and years I found being close to our household, instead, nothing had changed I kept on hitting on her whenever my wife was not around. One day she wrote a text message indicating that she might if not sure be expecting a child due to her change in body emotions.

I wished the ground could just swallow me alive. I told her to try as much as possible not to make it possible because if my wife Sandra can get this news, she can kill me alive. I told to have an abortion but she refused, so I had only one task to kick her out of our house since breaking out the news to me I had started losing weight due to overthinking and stress. I told her to leave the house but she refused and threaten to reveal the news to my wife. She needed half a million to leave peacefully. I had to toil out to get the money just for her to leave the house. After some weeks, I had found the one, she walked out of the house. Hardly had I thought it was over when she called me that she needs maximum support from me. My wife started noticing a radical change in my body but it was deadly to reveal the news to her. I would rather die than tell her the truth. I was supportive until that lady was ready to deliver. One day while I was busy at work, I saw a new number incoming, after receiving the voice said he's a doctor from a certain hospital in the town and I was supposed to rush there in the shortest time possible. I did what he wanted and upon arrival, I found my former made in the bed, The doctor said she was having twins, and an operation was required. I thought and regretted my action for another time for the operation to be done she had to pay 500 U.S Dollars and she had told the doctors that I was the father of the children. I had no otherwise but to Cary the cross. I felt like somebody had pierced a dagger into my body. I thought I was dreaming but it was a real situation. I called my friend and finally, I raised the money they needed. After paying the bills and everything I felt relieved but I was not sure if she could stop calling me for other help. The moment I stepped out of the hospital compound, I switched off the mobile phone and went directly to the mobile sim card shop for a new one. I wanted to get rid of this lady from my life.

After getting a new sim card I went back to my house, I felt exhausted and had headaches due to overthinking. Before I could do anything I went straight to the shower, after which I went to my bed to have some sleep. My wife came to wake me up for supper. we had supper, after which I told her we have to look for another house. She asked me the reason why we were vacating but my answer was just to change the environment. she agreed despite many doubts. After one week I had found a new apartment on the nearby street so we vacated during the weekend. My wife had found another maid so she was adjusting. One year passed, and my wife got pregnant so she was expecting another baby in a few months. Finally, the day came and she gave birth to a baby girl. Now the house will get excited to have two children a boy and a girl. I took the boy to a nearby academy where he started his nursery education. he was such bright in class that all of his teachers liked him so much. He was cool and attentive but very temperamental. He could fight anyone who would disturb his 0eace of mind. I tried my best to teach him how to leave peacefully with others until there were some gradual changes in his behaviours. when my son was in class 8 my girlchild was in class 4. She was also bright but not like his brother .

He did his class 8 and he was the first one in his class, he passed with flying colours. we were so proud of him. we celebrated him for being a hero in our family. He was then called to a top high school in the country. It was a boarding school, we did all the shopping necessary for him that could enable him to run the term. At that time seth jr was so jovial and talkative though he was turning 12 years old. My baby girl four years later also Did her primary level and she passed well. On the other hand, his brother sam had done his form four levels and therefore, we were expecting good results for them both. when the results came, everyone had a smile otheirheir faces, they had passed very well. They were never lazy in class Liam got the first grade and joined a public university while her joined a National high school in the country. Seth jr was in his teenage stage and at this stage children are more stubborn and they are in their experimental stage. He was on a long holiday. one fine day told me he was going out one of the weekends. He told me, he was cording one of his coursemates. I denied him a chance.
