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....
