Love

On my wedding day, I carried my wife in my arms. The bridal car stopped in front of our one-room flat. My buddies insisted that I carry her out of the car in my arms. So I carried her into our home. She was then plump and shy. I was a strong and happy bridegroom.

 This was the scene of ten years ago. The following days were as simple as a cup of pure water. We had a kid, I went into business and tried to make more money. When the assets were steadily increasing, the affections between us seemed to ebb. She was a civil servant. Every morning we left home together and got home almost at the same time. Our kid was studying in a boarding school. Our marriage life seemed to be enviably happy. But the calm life was more likely to be affected by unpredictable changes.

Dew came into my life.

 It was a sunny day. I stood on a spacious balcony. Dew hugged me from behind. My heart once again was immersed in her stream of love. This was the apartment I bought for her. Dew said, "You are the kind of man who best draws girl's eyeballs." Her words suddenly reminded me of my wife. When we just married, my wife said "Men like you, once successful, will be very attractive to girls." Thinking of this, I became somewhat hesitant. I knew I had betrayed my wife. But I couldn't help doing so.

 I moved Dew's hands aside and said, "You go to select some furniture, O.K.? I've got something to do in the company." Obviously she was unhappy, because I had promised her to go and see with her. At the moment, the idea of divorce became clearer in my mind although it used to be something impossible to me. However, I found it rather difficult to tell my wife about it. No matter how mildly I mentioned it to her, she would be deeply hurt. Honestly, she was a good wife. Every evening she was busy preparing dinner. I was sitting in front of the TV. The dinner was ready soon. Then we watched TV together or, I was lounging before the computer, visualising Dew's body. This was the means of my entertainment.

One day I said to her in a slight joking way. "Suppose we divorce, what will you do?" She stared at me for a few seconds without a word. Apparently she believed that divorce was something too far away from her. I couldn't imagine how she would react once she got to know I was serious.

 When my wife went to my office, Dew had just stepped out. Almost all the staff looked at my wife with a sympathetic eye and tried to hide something while talking with her. She seemed to have got some hint. She gently smiled at my subordinates. But I read some hurt in her eyes.

 Once again, Dew said to me. "He Ning, divorce her, O.K.?" Then we live together. I nodded. I knew I could not hesitate any more.

 When my wife served the last dish, I held her hand. "I've got something to tell you". She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes. Suddenly I didn't know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want to divorce. I raised the serious topic calmly. She didn't seem to be much annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, "Why?" I'm serious. I avoided her question. This so-called answer turned her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me. "You are not a man!" At that night, we didn't talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer, because my heart had gone to Dew.

 With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company. She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. I felt a pain in my heart. The woman who had been living ten years with me would become a stranger one day. But I could not take back what I had said. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer.

 A late night, I came back home after entertaining my clients. I saw her writing something at the table. I fell asleep fast. When I woke up, I found she was still there. I turned over and was asleep again. She brought up her divorce conditions. She didn't want anything from me, but I was supposed to give her one month's time before divorce, and in the month's time we must live as normal life as possible. Her reason was simple. Our son would finish his summer vacation a month later and she didn't want him to see our marriage broken. She passed me the agreement she drafted, and then asked me, "He Ning, do you still remember how I entered our bridal room on the wedding day?" This question suddenly brought back all those wonderful memories to me. I nodded and said, "I remember." "You carried me in your arms." She continued, "So, I have a requirement, that is, you carry me out in your arms on the day when we divorce. From now to the end of this month, you must carry me out from the bedroom to the door every morning." I accepted with a smile. I knew she missed those sweet days and wished to end her marriage with a romantic form.

 I told Dew about my wife's divorce conditions. She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. "No matter what tricks she does, she has to face the result of divorce." She said scornfully. Her words more or less made me feel uncomfortable.

 My wife and I hadn't had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. We even treated each other as a stranger. So when I carried her out for the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mummy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms.

She closed her eyes and said softly. "Let us start from today, don't tell our son." I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for bus, I drove to office.

 On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. We were so close that I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realised that I hadn't looked at this intimate woman carefully for a long time. I found she was not young any more. There were some fine wrinkles on her face.

 On the third day, she whispered to me, "The outside garden is being demolished. Be careful when you pass there."

 On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I seemed to feel that we were still an intimate couple and I was holding my sweetheart in my arms. The visualisation of Dew became vaguer.

On the fifth and sixth day, she kept reminding me something, such as, where she put the ironed shirts, I should be careful while cooking, etc. I nodded. The sense of intimacy was even stronger. I didn't tell Dew about this. I felt it was easier to carry her. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger.

 I said to her, "It seems not difficult to carry you now." She was picking her dresses. I was waiting to carry her out. She tried quite a few but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, "All my dresses have grown fatter." I smiled. But I suddenly realised that it was because she was thinner that I could carry her more easily, not because I was stronger. I knew she had buried all the bitterness in her heart. Again, I felt a sense of pain. Subconsciously I reached out a hand to touch her head. Our son came in at the moment. "Dad, it's time to carry mum out." He said. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had been an essential part of his life. She gestured our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face because I was afraid I would change my mind at the last minute. I held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly, as if we came back to our wedding day. But her much lighter weight made me sad.

On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. She said, "Actually I hope you will hold me in your arms until we are old." I held her tightly and said, "Both you and I didn't notice that our life was lack of such intimacy."

 I jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my decision. I walked upstairs. Dew opened the door. I said to her, "Sorry, Dew, I won't divorce. I'm serious." She looked at me, astonished. Then she touched my forehead, "You got no fever." I moved her hand off my head. "Sorry, Dew. I can only say sorry to you.

 I won't divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn't value the details of life, not because we didn't love each other any more. Now I understand that since I carried her into the home, she gave birth to our child, I am supposed to hold her until I am old. So I have to say sorry to you."

Dew seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into cry. I walked downstairs and drove to the office.

When I passed the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet for my wife which was her favourite. The salesgirl asked me to write the greeting words on the card. I smiled and wrote. "I'll carry you out every morning until we are old."

No plan to lead Jonathan’s campaign in 2015 – MASSOB

ONITSHA—THE Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, Tuesday denied a newspaper report that it would lead President Goodluck Jonathan’s presidential campaign in 2015.
Leader of MASSOB, Chief Ralph Uwazuruike, who spoke to newsmen in Onitsha, described the publication as false and baseless.
He said he had never met President Jonathan to discuss anything about his presidential ambition in 2015.
He said:  “The publication was full of falsehood aimed at distracting MASSOB because there was never a time I met Jonathan with Ojukwu’s wife, Ambassador Bianca to discuss anything concerning his ambition. MASSOB has no link with the Presidency because we are not politicians. We are  fighting for the actualisation of our own freedom in a country where Ndigbo are constantly treated like unimportant people.”
“It was a malicious falsehood by the writer who alleged that Uwazuruike and Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu went to see President Goodluck Jonathan in Aso Rock.”
The writer even went ahead to say that Jonathan gave me a brand new SUV, imagine? I wish to state it categorically clear to all that MASSOB shall never be distracted by any person or group of persons who hide under different amorphous groups to attack our noble quest for freedom.”Chief Uwazuruike called on MASSOB and entire Ndigbo to remain calm and peaceful, assuring that very soon, events in the nation would play a very big role in the emancipation of Ndigbo.

3-year-old boy kidnapped in Aba, sold for N200,000 in Onitsha


Nemesis has finally caught up with evil doers, as soldiers at the Ngwa High School, Aba Forward Operation Base (FOB) of the 144 Battalion of the Nigerian Army, arrested six persons, including four women and two men, over the kidnap of three-year-old boy at Egbelu Mbutu, near Aba. The six suspects were arrested at different locations in Aba, Abia State; Onitsha, Awka and Nnewi all in Anambra State.
It was confirmed that on June 3, three kidnappers, who rode on a motorbike had at about 8.20 p.m. stormed the home of an elderly woman whose name was given as Onyidiya at Egbelu Mbutu in Isiala Ngwa South Local Government. The gang, led by one Chijioke, aka Adamu, who hailed from Amapu Umuba in Isiala Ngwa North Local Government Area, allegedly broke into the house of the woman where one of them reportedly wrestled her to the ground before the others went into the inner room where the boy, Chimechefulam, was sleeping.
The kidnappers tied the boy with his grandmother’s wrapper before they escaped with him to an unknown destination. Immediately the bandits fled, the grandmother raised the alarm, which attracted people within the vicinity and a search party was promptly formed.
It was in the course of searching for the boy that a villager provided information that he overheard someone telling Adamu in the afternoon of the fateful day that he should remember their business at 8 p.m. Based on the information, the gang leader was traced to their house but could not be found and after investigation by the villagers, it was established that he was the one who led the team and this prompted the matter to be reported to soldiers in Aba.
Leading his men, the officer-in-charge of the Ngwa High School FOB, Captain Chris Nwogu was said to have swung into action. The soldiers traced Adamu to Aba where he was arrested. He allegedly revealed how his gang abducted the boy and took him to a woman in Onitsha. It was also gathered that the woman at Onitsha, in a bid to get a buyer for the boy, transferred him to another woman in Awka, the Anambra State capital and from there, a buyer, a man said to be in his 70s was found at Nnewi.
The boy was finally sold for N200, 000 to the septuagenarian in Nnewi who claimed he was involved in the act because he was childless and needed a boy who he could live with and train. Six persons, including four women so far identified to have played one role or the other in the kidnap and subsequently in the sale of Chimechefulam had been arrested while the boy was rescued last week at Nnewi.
When the army base in Aba was visited, the officer-in-charge was said to be away on official duty, but an army source confirmed the incident, saying the boy had been re-united with his parents while investigation continued.

[Photos] Would You Allow Your Spouse Or Partner To Work As A Model?

These photos are from the recently held Glitz Africa Fashion Week, Accra-Ghana…When I saw them, I asked myself; what are they really modelling?



Maybe I am too conservative and that is why I cannot find any fashion out here. I would be happy if the liberal folks on here can tell me what these three people are really modelling…#GlitzAfricaMadnessWeek



I always thought fashion is about what you wear and not what you forget to wear…

Dumb Black Girl Steals Baby From Hospital ..... Posts The Pic On Facebook!

A Pennsylvania woman who falsely claimed to be pregnant was arraigned Friday on charges of kidnapping a 3-day-old infant from a prestigious Pittsburgh hospital by pretending to be a nurse and sneaking the baby out in a bag. The newborn, Bryce Coleman, was unharmed and reunited with his family Thursday evening, several hours after he was taken.
The woman accused of nabbing him, Breona Moore, 19, was charged with concealing the whereabouts of a child, kidnapping, reckless endangerment and interfering with the custody of a child, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported. The alleged kidnapping was so brazen, the baby’s mother said, Moore actually took the infant from her arms, explaining he needed “more tests.”
Moore allegedly tucked the baby into a handbag and walked out the front door of the hospital. Moore told police she “he had convinced people she was pregnant and had delivered the baby on Monday by C-section,” the criminal complaint read. The complicated ruse even involved postings to Facebook in which Moore apparently put up photos of herself pregnant, ultrasound images and status updates saying “I Just Want To Give Him So Much Love,” police said. It was Moore’s own family who contacted police shortly after the baby’s kidnapping was reported.
