ONE MOMENT OF MADNESS.

Sophie and I have been married for two years now. My wife was down to earth, responsible and respectful.

I believe it was the respect she had for me that made her accept the fact that I had female bestie, Amelia, my friend and classmate back in the university.

Amelia was a friend I share most of secrets even while we were in school and we could talk about anything without being ashame of it.

Even before my marriage to Sophie, I had introduced Amelia to her which my wife welcome her as a sister.

Amelia, often times visit us during weekends where we sit and talk about anything and everything.

I enjoyed Amelia's company and whenever I have little issues with my wife, I sort Amelia for advice.

She was always there and her presence was not objected by my wife.

On a Friday evening my wife said she was leaving on Saturday morning to go visit the parents so should could drop some few things for them.

Before she left, as a responsible woman, she stocked the refrigerator with food to keep me till evening on Sunday when she was going to return home.

That evening Amelia called to know how I was fairing and I told her my wife left for the village.

The following morning, she came around and we sat to have a long chat as usual.

As the chat progresses I became drawn to Amelia. Her hidden beauty seems to be more revealing, and what was initially a chit chat about life was followed my chat of intimacy.

Amelia bragged about how good she can handle love making and I wasn't left out either. With a bottle of Saint Napoleon Whiskey, the conversation become more intimate as we draw close to each other on the davenport we were sitting.

As the moment goes by, we touched, play and before we could help, we were all over each other.

As the spirit leads, I stretched Amelia on the couch and we made love.

Immediately we were released from the spirit of the forbidden fruit, i realized that I have done what was not supposed to be.

******

About two months after the incident, Amelia called me to tell me she was pregnant for me.

I didn't believe her at first but she kept threatening to tell my wife of the development.

In other not to loose my marriage, I told Amelia I was going to settle her but she went ahead and disclose to my wife she was pregnant for me.

My wife couldn't stand the humiliation as she didn't have a child for me.

She decided to walked out of the marriage and I am stuck with one moment of madness.

Logan is my name and this what has befallen me.

DON'T LEAVE WHEN IT IS TOO LATE.

The story . Udauk was too weak to continue with the evening chores around the house because of her pregnancy. She bent over the kitchen cabinet in search of a tuber of yam she was to prepare before her husband returned from work. At the point of stretching her hands to reach the tuber of yam under the cabin, she felt a sharp pain down her abdomen. Her left lap was swollen from the beating she got the previous night from the monster's husband. She was still short of three months from her due month. That's when she was to put to birth. The shape pain was accompanied by a loud scream. She dropped the knife she had with her and tried to settle on a table-size stool lying close to the gas cylinder in the kitchen, but she couldn't. She fell and started screaming, reached out to her phone, and dialed her husband. Mr. Sam had branched Madam G's Native Kitchen to settle for a while before heading home as his habit demands. He was busy at his usual joint with a bottle of chill ...

TILL DEATH DO US APART

The story. She wanted to fix this once and for all. She felt it was her obligation and responsibility to try and fix her marriage. It is true that when love can no longer sustain the marriage, commitment, and sense of responsibility does. This was Elma's concern. Though things were never what she expected, especially after having an affair with her personal assistant, she felt she could rekindle the love and bring her home. Shutting the door of the penthouse behind Mark her boyfriend, Elma warned him never to call again, not when she was trying to fix her home and get back with her husband. After Mark drove off, Elma took a step backward from where she was, fell on the bed and sobbed profusely. It was hard for her to see him leave. In the past six months of knowing Mark, he made her feel loved again and provided her a shoulder to cry on. He made her forget the horrors George her husband made her pass through in the last three years. Elma left the penthouse that n...
