MY SISTER'S HUSBAND Episode Four

It was my sister, she tried to open the door but unfortunately the door was locked
Then she knocked, I released myself quickly from him and ran inside

He opened the door for her and asked "what are you doing at home this early?"

I'm not feeling too well, my boss asked me to go home, she explained, by the way, what are you too doing at home this time? She queried her husband

I came to pick some files I have to give Sanya, he's taking it to Abuja tomorrow morning

Liar, I laughed in the room

Maybe I should take you to the hospital?

No, I will be fine, by the way where is Tiwa? My sister asked

She should be in the room, he answered and asked of her car

At the mechanic, my sister muttered

What happened? Richard inquired

It developed fault this morning, so I called Michael to come pick it from the office, referring to their mechanic

Okay, will help you call and ask if he has fixed it, he assured her

My sister came to meet me in the room and told me she was not feeling fine, I insisted she go to the hospital to see the doctor, by the time we got to the sitting room, her husband is gone
I drove her to the hospital, they checked her and the doctor said her BP is too high

"What are you thinking madam?" The doctor queried her

She didn't hesitate to say it's her husband "It's my husband, Doctor, he treats me like trash, we pretend to love ourselves outside but we are enemies inside, I can count the number of days I have had sex as a married woman, for the past six months, he has not made love with me, sometimes he prefers to sleep on the floor than to sleep on the same bed with me, I'm dying in silence I don't know what to do, I don't want my marriage to crash"

Doctor gave her some advice which I didn't listen to, there was goose pimples all over my body, for the very first time since I have been sleeping with my Sister's husband, I felt so bad, I think I'm digging my sister's grave, I can't afford to lose my sister, how would my old parents feel losing one of us, I think I have to stop now and let go"

Tiwa, Tiwa, my sister's voice brought me back

Are you okay? She asked

Yes, I'm okay, just thinking about you, big sis .....

Don't worry, I will be fine, she assured me

My sister couldn't go to work the next day, we got talking and I asked her why she wanted to kill herself over a man

A man? Tiwa did you just say a man? This is my husband we are talking about, she muttered

It's okay sis, I'm just bothered about you, your health, you heard what the doctor said yesterday, do you want to die? Don't you think about your daughter, Our aged parents, even me? We are only two, I can't afford to lose you, I explained

She drew me near and held my hand, with tears in her eyes, she told me how much she loves all of us and how she would stay around for a very long time for us but I love my husband, I can't afford to share him with any woman, I was pained when I saw him with my neighbour's sister days ago

I couldn't help but scream "Your neighbour's sister?

My sister was shocked with the way I shouted, are you alright? She asked

Yes big sis, you don't know how I feel whenever I see married men cheating on their wives

Some men are like that, she said

"Richard is cheating on me and my sister? He will regret this" I said in my mind as I began to sweat.
