Nothing to write….so
much to say…see my life….
Sister-in-law: Sykik,
come here, I want to talk to you
Sykik: Yes ma
SIL: Sykik, God
will answer our prayers in Jesus name. I was with my Baba Deji for seven years
before I got pregnant for him. I know what I went through, from one holy water
to another, from one mountain to another. What are you and your husband doing
about this thing? I hope you have both gone to the hospital…shebi you know this
our husbands don’t even want to imagine that anything is wrong with them…
Sykik (fidgeting on
her toes): Yes ma
SIL: ehn…ehn…sometimes
you need to leave all this big name hospitals you are going to , they collect plenty money and nothing to show for it, look for a
small by-the-corner-cheap one…… they are also very good oh.
Sykik: Yes ma…
SIL: Also, get
closer to your mother-in-law….you should take leave from your office, all this
work, work, travel today, travel tomorrow is not good. Take some weeks off and
go and cry to your mother-in-law…tell her “mummy, I am here”….. “What are you
doing about this my situation?”
Sykik: Huh…..
SIL: Yes oh…you
will tell her, mummy, you must do something oh….you can’t be watching me like
this
Sykik: Yes ma….ehhhmmm….my
Hubby is calling me…
SIL: ok. Oya, go
and come back quick
Abeg, my friends
what do you think….that I carried my two “tontinrin” leg back to continue the
monologue …mbanu
I can’t get over
myself with laughter ….please, make una helep me ask my sister-in-law, when my
mother-in-law started possessing pregnancy inducing powers.
-->My darlings, you should have seen the seriousness
on her face, no be small thing oh.
P.S.: I know she
means well and she wants me to join my mother-in-law in her “operation Sykik
must be pregnant praying mission”.
I am
not sad or crying oh…I am only sharing my day-to-day TCC experiences….. just maybe
someday, someone might read this blog , , realise someone also went through this phase
and soared above the tides

Deletena real Huh…...good you are taking it positively
ReplyDeleteThanks babe ....I was shocked beyond words...see me see advice
Deleteahahahaa....i like your sense of humour and how you have taken this attitude because it takes a strong-will not to succumb to all these we-meant-well-talks.
ReplyDeleteIt is always the woman that carries more of the burden. Children comes from GOD ONLY. Many women have 'leased' children from other sources just to be called mama, but live in regret all the days of their lives. So my dear sistah, I like your courage and stance. Keep your faith in GOD FIRM.
Thanks for the encouragement. The testimonies around me of God's faithfulness is enough reason to know that I am better off on God's side. I shall surely testify. Amen
DeleteBear hugs mama

Well, me i like your sister in law for coming clean jare, at least she admitted that its possible that her brother could be the problem; BUT which one is go tell your mother in law ; mummy, I am here”….. “What are you doing about this my situation?”... Abeg children come from God and only God o...wetin person no go hear for this TTC wahala....Just keep trusting, this too shall pass.
ReplyDeleteLol....I just keep picturing myself rolling on the floor , holding on to my mother-in-law's feet crying "mummy I am here" ......"what are you doing about my situation" .......mbanu...I casint fit...... For what....lol....nothing wey my ears never hear..
