SHATTERED EPISODE 19

Calabash

That moment when you find love, trust and honour in the eyes of everyone.
That moment when your worst enemy becomes the demon himself.
That same moment when your best moment becomes your worst nightmare.

Enjoy the thrills of how far life would sacrifice for love. Yesterday is always a shadow you can not escape, today is a dream worth living, yet tomorrow shall forever remain the wonder of nature hidden to all.

A *shattered* past in itself is a shattered tomorrow.


*SHATTERED*

EPISODE 19

We all laughed and sat down as she called the servants to come and pick the things away.

There were more to eat and drink. The food ranged from banku with shito and tilapia to plain rice with tomato sauce and chicken. The chicken were too big to be enjoyed by an individual but they insisted we left nothing in there, which meant we would have to package them home, because there was no one to enjoy them. I was happy within because I couldn't prepare any food for the week and I'm not sure I will be able to do that. As we ate, Mariama broke the courtesy on table manners.
Mariama: I know we eating but we can't keep quiet like this. We need to know something about the lucky man who is going to grind our lady in bed tomorrow by this time. I hope I'm not being naughty ooo. It's getting late and we won't have much time to discuss this.
We all laughed and supported her. "Yes! yes!! yes!!! Tell us something. You have left us in the dark for long.

Ma-uuda looked at our faces with surprise and said, "you guys knew all these while that he wasn't around. I would have introduced him to you. Anyway, he's the same guy I used to tell you guys about when we were in school. He's currently in there but you know this is "ladies affair" so he can't come here. He's also having his in there with his guys so relax. I will introduce you guys to him. He will recognize you all because he's been seeing your pictures and I've been telling him about you guys always. He's one lovely guy I wouldn't exchange for even 10000 karat of gold. He's so down to earth. I mean what else would a lady want in a man that he can't afford to give, be it money, love, honesty, humility? Name it. He's one of a kind."

Mariama quickly cleared her throat and chipped in, "Mmmmmm...we can't wait to see this angel of God. As for me, I don't trust men one bit. Even if you give me  thousand reasons to love, I will give ten thousand reasons why I should cheat. Men are cunning and deceitful. I saw my father do that to my mum right from infancy till we lost her. He didn't end it there, he got married to two women and still. What at all do men want in life? They keep jumping from one manhole to the other...
"Just like ladies jumping from one church to the other" (Jocelyn's sister said)
Hahaha...this girl was really funny. Indeed, guys are cunning,  but not all of them. I'm sure my Nana Yaw Acheampong would have been the best husband ever if he was to be alive.

Before I could control myself, tears dropped them my cheeks. It was obvious I was crying because they were talking of matters of the heart.
Naa: we are sorry dear friend. I think we need to stop discussing this issue because Thessy here has really suffered in the hands of men. First, it was the death of her loved one, then the incidence of rape and the loss of her baby. She's such a strong girl to even have the heart to sit here and dine with us today.
Me: No no, come on girls. We can't stop being ourselves just because nature has robbed me. Let's go on. I only believe the hottest love has the coldest hands.
Jocelyn: I think I share in what Thessy is saying. It isn't that some of us don't take delight in getting close to guys,  but the reality is love is hard to find, hard to keep and hard to forget. You give your heart to someone and the person trumps over it like trash. What happened to my Cyrus? After all the toil, he still went about chasing girls. I had to quit and live a single life, hoping to get someone who will come and seek my hand in marriage.
Mariama: wait o, so you mean Cyrus dumped you and you never said a freaky thing? Heeeeer, mafia! Fa no hy3 mensa. I will deal with that guy till he coughs his last drop of blood out. You see why I don't want to have any genuine thing to do with guys?

Ma-uuda: Mari, if you should consider all these things, you will never see the good in any man. You might rather end up contracting one deadly sexually transmitted infection, and what good will that do to you? It's hurting though but all you need is to put yourself together, build up yourself, and move on.
Naa: I'm sure the heart was meant to be broken,  but not by a creature who has got penis and moves about with two legs. The worst of it all is that those guys are broke ass guys who pretend to have something in their homes. There's this thing that pierces my heart each time I'm alone. Each time I remember it, I feel like cursing myself.

Once in school, I came home to pick some few items. I came to meet Kwabena Boateng on my sister. He was forcing his way with her. Not that I'm too strong to keep it to myself after quiting with him secretly, but I realised there was no need to cry over a man. A broken heart really bleeds tears,  but it can be mended if you willing to. For me, I'm out until God descends today.
