Imagine what we want in life is a brighter future and not depression. These were his thought before dozing off after being injected with another round of tranquillizing medication. He has been locked up in a God knows where mental rehabilitation centre for like four to five weeks now and he still couldn't think straight why that should be the next point of action in his life. He looked depressed and opposite of what he was in his former life. He wished he had never met that psycho Vivian girl. She ought to be the one tied to the hospital bed and not him. He knew nobody would hear him out but he won't stop causing destiny for selling him out to a cheap liar like the girl that sent him to a rehab. He hadn't recover from the effect of the medication he was given before dozing off when the bell rang for morning prayer and he mustn't miss the sermon if That's the only thing that can change him and give him another opportunity to lead a better life. He likes the Reverend father that preaches at the morning mass, he is not a black man like him and this is why he loves his sermon from heaven come to earth. He takes life so easy and talks about heaven like he has been there before. He knew his late father will be angry with him for believing a white man fairy tale but it's better than that of those black holyghost fire men in his village. She lied about every thing to him except her unending love for him. He was too young to know the true meaning of love when he met Vivian. They both started as secondary school friends before they grew to live without eachother. He loved her so much that he couldn't even hide his emotional feeling for her from the little cat in his father's house. Every body knew he was in love even his old grandmother who wasn't born in the 21st century will always fabricate stories of how he met his grandfather and that's the part that pisses him off about falling in love, every body always has a story to tell about their love life. He had grew to love Vivian like his own blood and flesh even when he knew he could win the heart of other ambitious and pretty girls on campus during his days at the university, he had stayed with her patiently and tolerated her melodrama most of the times believing all girls were born with various forms of hidden temper in them. After eight years of their ruff and tumble relationship, he decided to tie the knot with her and be the lucky man in her life. They had gotten married in a grand style and their wedding was the talk of the town for some months. He was already working with one of this fast rising telecommunications company that had just arrived the country and the pay was good for a young bachelor turned family man. He couldn't afford to lose his job but he needs to be there for his newly wedded wife as well. He was promoted at work within a short time and he too began to keep late at night in the office. Most times he hardly even eat anything because he was always busy. He had set up a mini deport shop for his wife and stocked it with various imported goods but That's not enough to keep a home his instinct would always tell him but he couldn't leave what he loves doing for who he loves. He had gotten home several times and met his wife drunk but he believes it's one of those things rich people do when their money is more than their problem. He is rich and well fulfilled, so what makes a man if not waelth and fame. He had always tried to avoid confrontation from his wife concerning their marriage but he could escape this last one which led him to the asylum....
