                Looking at what my friend was wearing, Vero suspected something going on but I told her that there was nothing going on between us but Vero wouldn't believe me. She picked quarrel with her at the shop. Without even asking further questions, she dropped her bag and faced Esther my childhood friend.

Vero: Look, sister, I won't sit down for you to break my home. Do you know where we started from? It will be better for you to send yourself out of this place before I descend on you.

Esther stood up from where she was sitting and positioned herself well with her hands on her waist.

Vero: Just look at what you are wearing, you are not even ashamed of yourself. How can  you call this just a visit? You are the very people guys will infest deadly diseases with. You are lucky I'm in a good mood.

Esther: Madam I respect you enough that's why I just decide to keep quiet but if you want to force my other side out this afternoon, I will show you the profound one. How can you just come here and start insulting me? Who do you think you are? Who should even claim ownership of Agbanavor? You or I? Look, don't try me.

Vero: I will try you. If you are a lady like me open that your dirty mouth again and see who is who here.

Me: Sweetheart please it shouldn't get to that point. Esther, please leave.

Vero: Makafui, but how could you? Have I not given you enough?

Me: Vero be careful with what you say. Have you caught me doing something with her? I won't take this disgrace from you again.

Vero: You call this disgrace right? Okay I've heard you. And you what are you still doing there?

Esther: Makafui I will be waiting for you home. Pass by when you close I will give the best today.

Me: Hey! Esther don't come and give me any trouble. Have we agreed to anything like that? And where from that one too? Esther tell my wife what you just said is not true.

Vero: "Oyiwa"! I said it. Go and see her after that come to me in the house.
Vero took her bag and went to meet the bank's car driver for them to go. " Esther what have you just caused? How do you want me to explain this to my wife? " I asked.
"She thinks she can just insult me Esther, don't worry invite me to your house let me come and talk sense into her", said Esther. Without allowing her finish her sentence, I held her lips to stop talking. "Look that is my wife for Christ sake so don't just talk against her like that. I love her and wouldn't want to lose her. Don't come to this boutique again", I cautioned her. She then left in shame.

I became very worried within myself because I don't know how I will be able to convince Vero that nothing of that sort was going on between Esther and I. The devil wouldn't let you to be free at any time so I will appeal to all believers not to stop praying because until the evil one gets you, it will never leave you. After work, I locked the boutique and went home. When Vero returned from work, she never said anything about what went on. She came to prepare food and ate hers at the kitchen. She didn't serve me as she used to do. When I asked where my food was, she just looked into my face and went into the room to sleep. She didn't say a word and seriously speaking, I was getting more worried because how could I explain myself for her to understand? Hmm. I went into the kitchen, served myself and also ate at the kitchen. I watched Television for few minutes and went to join her in bed. I lied down facing the ceiling for solutions to this problem. I was actually restless that night. I couldn't sleep. At dawn, I tapped her to wake up so that we talk. She said there was nothing to discuss and I was just coming to disturb her sleep. She didn't wake up to listen to what I had to say so I also decided to say what I had to say because I knew she could hear. I first started by apologizing for what happened the previous day. I went on to explain to her that what Esther said was just out of place. "Makafui why are you disturbing my sleep? I'm not ready for any talk this morning", she said, took her cloth and went to sleep on the couch outside. From all indications, my apology was not accepted.

In the morning, she didn't prepare breakfast but left for work and without our usual goodbye kisses. This single life in marriage continued for almost a week. I decided to wait for her temper to calm down well before we talk about the issue. When I close from the boutique, I usually buy either fast food or fruits and that serves as supper. One morning, I wanted to toast some bread for breakfast before going to the boutique. In the process, I ended up burning the egg. She came to the kitchen and saw what I was doing. She smiled and just open the fridge to take her cornflakes. As she turned to go, I quickly held her from behind. "Vero so for how long are we going to remain like this?" She turned to me and said, "until you notice the pain you've caused me. What don't I do for you in this house? All you can do is to go sleeping with that slut. Let me go. I'm getting late for work." I knelt before her and said "my dear, all what you are thinking of is not true. Esther is just from my village. She came to buy clothes and just decided to visit. What she said the other time was just to tease you. So please forgive me and let's come back to normal. I'm tired of this bachelor life". "Look at how innocent you are looking. Please stand up. I've heard you but before everything can come to its normal state, you need to go for HIV test or anytime you want to have sex with me, you need to get your condoms ready", she said. She prepared another toasted bread for me that morning before leaving for work.

A week later, Vero's father called her and asked her to come home with immediate effect. I made up my mind to go with her. When we got there, we saw Precious in the house with a swollen face. When asked, her mother said her husband beat her because of her inability to give birth. "Oh no how come"?, I asked. "Hey! My friend I didn't invite you to be asking questions. By the way who even invited you here" Vero's father asked. "In-law I'm sorry. I told Vero I will leave her behind but she shouldn't keep too long. Precious was beaten by her husband not because of her unproductivity but because he heard of the life she was living on Campus with her lecturers. 

What next? There is more to be said. Your comments are very useful to us so please don't forget to like and comment.

Money over love Season 2 Episode 6

JONES KWESI TAGBOR*

          *Money over love*💰
                 Season 2 
                  *Episode 6*
               Despite I was not very fit, I was able to impress Vero a bit and she was okay with it. The money she got from Mr Mike was given to me to start up a business. Vero is actually the love of my life. I'm not sure I will ever get any other lady that can be very supportive and submissive to her husband like that. The money was used to start up a boutique business manned by me as she did her job. Her colleagues were surprised when they realized Vero was recommended for promotion. She was recommended to be the branch manager as her boss was to be relocated to their national office to work till he becomes a pensioner, which will be four years later. Actually, there were other staff more qualified than her for that promotion but because of personal interests, Mr Mike gave her that opportunity. Soon, she became the branch manager. There were whole lots of oppressions by some authorities to disqualify her but all proved futile. Vero was naturally beautiful, smart and intelligent so she even would've been selected before other staff. "Our financial life has actually been catapulted from nowhere to somewhere. Thanks to Mr Mike. Yes I need to thank him because he was the reason for this breakthrough. They may plan evil against you but God will rather turn everything to your benefit. Mr Mike had wanted to infest us with HIV but God turned it into our financial breakthrough", said Vero

After their expensive wedding, Precious went back to campus and instead of quitting the relationship with the lecturer who impregnated her, she continued. She had a simple reason to that because this lecturer happened to be their exams officer for her department. When individual lecturers submit their end of semester results, he will conspire with them to award high marks to Precious because she was his girlfriend. He also favours the girlfriends of his colleagues lecturers so that was a common and normal practice among them. Precious didn't make time to study. It's either a program to attend, going home to see her husband, or hanging out with her lecturers in their bungalows to warm their beds but when exam results are released, this lady scores higher grades in all courses taught by male lecturers and perform poorly in that of her female lecturers. This is one of the rots in our various tertiary institutions that must be looked at. No wonder the certificates are no longer recognized. A graduate will come out with good grades but cannot perform on the job. They need additional 'on the job' training before they could do something. The standards of our educational system has really fallen.

Precious was enjoying herself on campus whiles her husband was also boasting of a beautiful and rich wife in the University. Even the worst part of her relationship on campus was she being a mental patient without the lecturer knowing. Precious stopped taking her medications for sometime so symptoms of her Mania started popping up. She could go to the general office of her department and ruin insults to the staffs if they did something against her interest. One day she met the head of the department and her actions of misconduct started. The head wanted to threaten her of dismissal if she didn't discipline herself. Precious insulted this man very well which must have called for her dismissal. The exams officer came to her defense and advised that she must first be cross-examined by the counselling department. When that was done, they got to know that she was a mental patient. That was her luck. But the University deferred her course for a year which means she had to repeat that year when she returns. At the time she was serving her suspension periods, she does travel with her husband to places. At times they were captured on TV on news segments and that alone makes her father feel self actualized. After a full year of marriage, she wasn't able to conceive. She told her husband that she wanted to graduate before getting pregnant so she was controlling herself.

Madam Faustina gave birth to a girl and we were invited to their naming ceremony. They were happy seeing us around. I told Mr Charles that I needed to give all the thanks to him because had it not to be him, I couldn't have married Vero.

Precious' husband was not happy about her wife's inability to get pregnant and this brought a quarrel between them. During one of their medical consultations, the assessment proved that she could give birth so probably, she needed some few time. When her husband's sperm was tested at the lab, the result indicated that his sperm was not strong enough to impregnate the lady. It was good the man also tested himself for possible problems. Mostly when this happens, the men always blame the ladies for not being fertile. Pressure normally comes from the man's family on the woman to give birth. Some even suggest to the man to send the lady away whiles maybe the problem is from the man.
Junior Makafui was also developing well. Because we both do not have enough time to stay at home, we sent him to a boarding school. Despite the fact that my performance in bed was not as it was before the accident, Vero managed me that way. She learnt a lesson from what she nearly got herself into with Mr Mike so she made her mind to accept me just the way I am. The only problem in bed was, I do get tired especially at the time she needed it the most. I went to the same forest to get the herb I made for Mr Charles. Much improvement was felt but it still couldn't be like it used to be. One day at the boutique where I was attending to one customer, I noticed a lady entering the boutique. She looked familiar so I decided to go and verify if I knew her. Lo and behold, she was the lady I proposed to by the river side back in my village. She was the one I asked to meet at a drinking spot where she insulted me and made her friends to also laugh at me. "Lady can you recollect seeing me somewhere", I asked. She looked at me from head to toe for a while and said not really. "Are you not from Torve in the Volta region"?, I asked again. "Yes how come you know me? This is my first time of coming into this shop and you already know me." She said surprisingly. "I'm Agbanavor the guy who asked you one morning by the river side and asked you to meet me at the drinking spot. Can you now remember?" "Yes yes yes, ei, you. So this is where you've been hiding. You have really changed, wow", she said with joy. I asked her what she needed and got them for her. I asked her to keep the money. She fell in love for me instantly. I equally felt some lust for her. I told her to be paying me visits whenever she is free. As time goes on, she does come to help me sell. I informed Vero about this but she was not happy about that. One day she came to the shop during her break periods to see her sitting beside me. Looking at what my friend was wearing, Vero suspected something going on but I told her that there was nothing going on between us but Vero wouldn't believe me.

What next? There is more to be said. Your comments are very useful to us so please don't forget to like and comment.

Money over love Season 2 Episode 5

*JONES KWESI TAGBOR*

          *Money over love*💰
                 Season 2 
                  *Episode 5*
               Mr Mike saw the amount and smiled. "Vero all this money will be yours on just one condition", he said. Vero is to satisfy him sexually that evening and any other time he requested for it. He placed the cheque on the center table and sat down. "Use what you have to get what you want", he said. "What do you mean Mr Mike? I should give myself to you before you help me treat my husband who had an accident whiles driving your own van?" "Hey! Madam don't go there. The company compensated your husband as our working conditions stated so don't try to say we have ignored him. I've given you the only option available. Take it or leave it", Mr Mike sounded a bit angry. "I'm highly disappointed in you", Vero said as tears rolled down her cheeks. "Madam there is no need crying or being disappointed in me. You allowing me access to what is under your dress will not take anything away from you. If you keep your mouth shut on what will go on now, no one will know about it. You've got a fresh skin so stop living your holy life here and let's get going. I will be in my room, when you are ready, just open the door and enter", he said as he took the cheque from the table and went into his bedroom. The decision became very tough for Vero this time around. Letting a cheque of Ghc50,000.00 go simply because she held strongly to her moral intelligence and seeing her beloved husband die due to poverty seemed challenging to let it happen. Vero sat down with tears flowing like a stream of water.

Back in the house, I was contemplating of what kind of meeting will be going on which kept Vero out of home for so long. It didn't look normal because, even on days they needed to close the company's end of year account, they did it within working hours. I called her number which went through but she didn't pick up. I called one of her colleagues to find out, if truly, a meeting was going on. The lady I contacted said she was on leave but assured me she will enquire about it and report back to me. In a few minutes, she called back and said there was no such meeting. I wondered why should my wife would lie to me. "She will come and meet me today", I said to her colleague over the phone as if I had the strength to do something. She pleaded with me to take it easy with her when she comes back.
Vero went deep into herself and said "God, please tell me what to do. My husband needs money to come back into his normalcy. I love him and don't want him dead now. Please forgive me if I commit this sin to save a life". Looking at the time, she realised she has exhaused most of her time so she needed to take a decision and move on. What Vero was trying to do was just similar to what Jesus Christ came to do for us. Because of the love he had for us, he sacrificed his life for us to have life, he took the position of a sinner just to make us righteous, he was tortured just to make us free. Vero had to make a choice this dying moment. She walked with calculated steps and face filled with tears into Mr Mike's bedroom. "Here I am. Use me for anything so that I can save my husband's life", she said to Mr Mike who was already in his boxers lying on his bed. "Young lady, why are you doing things as if I want to kill you? How can we enjoy ourselves when you are crying? Please if you are not ready, am not forcing you, just leave", Mr Mike said sounding very authoritative. Vero unfastened the button of her dress, took it off leaving her bra and trousers. "Wow! You have beautiful breasts, let me help you open the bra". Mr Mike stood up with his elongated stick. He gave Vero a hug and unlocked her bra. Vero was actually not having any feeling for all that he was doing. Mr Mike removed her trousers and pushed her to the bed. Vero was almost naked. She was only left in her under wear. Mr Mike started massaging her in order to get her activated. Gradually, Vero was coming into the game. She asked Mr Mike if he had condoms, but Mike ignored that question. God in his knowledge does things just to help us from such situations. It was true that Mr Mike was a carrier of HIV/AIDS. He was on anti retroviral drugs. Due to this, he stopped having sex with his wife from the day he was tested positive. Luckily for his wife, she was negative. Mr Mike had this infection out of the promiscuous life he was living but to his continuous medication, he still looked very active. That is one benefit of HIV drugs. They are able to sustain your CD4 count with the help of good diet, rest and an enabling environment. Vero attended a workshop where they were taught of some of these drugs people take. Among them are Lamivudine and Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate tablets. Mr Mike had his Lamivudine on a stool beside the bed. Vero's gaze landed on this medicine and asked Mr Mike to give her a few seconds. She went straight to take the tablet and examined it.

Mr Mike: But what are you doing with that medicine? Or do you also need some?

Vero: Who does this medicine belong to?

Mr Mike: My friend stop asking questions and let's enjoy ourselves. Your sick guy should be waiting for you.

Vero: Are you HIV positive?

Mr Mike: But how can you ask me such a question? How can you come to my house and be asking me if I'm HIV positive?

Vero: This medicine is given to such people. Mr Mike don't hide this from me. You are HIV positive.

Mr Mike: eerm my dear I can explain.

Vero: explain what?

Mr Mike: please it is only my wife and my doctor who knows about my condition. Yes I am HIV positive but mine is not transferrable.

Vero: you are very wicked Mr Mike. You knew you were in this condition and yet still you wanted to sleep with me. God will punish you. The whole world will hear about this.

Mr Mike: what did you just say?

Vero: Yes the whole world will know what you are doing. I wonder the number of ladies you've shared the virus to. From that lady, she will give it her husband or other people, and from those people, it will spread and cover the whole community. I will call for your arrest.

Mr Mike: Vero please don't do such a thing. I will be disgraced. Please keep this secret between just the two of us. Okay, let me sign the cheque for you. I will also promote you at work so that you keep this as a secret.

Vero: hmm you are very funny. You giving me HIV which will be for the life time and eventually leading me to early grave is better than the disgrace you will go through isn't it? Add Ghc10.000.00 to the amount I wrote on the cheque and sign it for me. I will keep it as a secret.
Mr Mike quickly took his cheque booklet and signed a new cheque of Ghc60,000.00 for her. Vero dressed up and left the room. The only thing I was not sure of is if they kissed. Kissing was also seen as a risk behaviour to getting the infection from an infected person but it is not a hundred percent must that you kissing an infected person should guarantee you to get the disease. We men at times don't have patience for our wives. As I said earlier, we won't wait for them to explain themselves to us before we start rattling.

She got to the house around 8pm. By then, Junior was asleep but I was still awake waiting for her. I was just wondering how I would skin her alive when she came.

Me: How was the meeting?

Vero: oh sweetheart it went well.

Me: oh what is that on your face? Come closer let me remove it for you.
Immediately she got closer I slapped her very hard to the extent than I felt a severe pain at my back.

Me: how dare you lie to me? Where are you coming from?

She remained silent and held her jaw. "I said where are you coming from? I called your colleague and I was told no meeting has been called. So where are you coming from?" I asked again. She poured out a lot of blood as she opened her mouth. The slap made her to bite her tongue and lips. Her face got swollen. Little did I know my anger was about to complicate issues. She dropped her bag and with pain, a bleeding mouth and tears, went into the washroom to clean the blood. She left the bag behind so I managed to pick it  and something pushed me to check inside. Lo and behold, I saw the cheque of Ghc60,000.00 which was dated for the next day. I checked the name used to sign it and it was her boss. Vero came back into the room in tears and said, "I nearly killed myself because of you. I nearly sent myself into hell because of you. I nearly destroyed my family because of you. You couldn't have little patience for me so that I tell you where I was coming from. All you did was to shout at me and slap me. You've caused me pain". I was really touched by what she said. "Dear I'm very sorry. I know I've gone too far. Please I promise this will never happen again", I pleaded. She didn't say anything. She then narrated how she went to her boss to ask for money which she could use to treat me. She said she has planned sending me overseas for the surgery. I thanked her and also apologized for what I did.

She was not able to go to work the following day because her swollen face. She needed to cover her face even before taking her small boy to school. She seeked permission from her boss and she was given three days off.

Three days later, she went to cash out the money only for her to be told that, her boss recently transferred all he had in that account into another account so there was nothing to be given to her. They rejected the cheque. She went to her boss at his office and threatened to report her to the police station before he signed a different cheque for her. So had it not being because of the secret, he would've just slept with my wife for free because, same would have happened if she tries to cash the cheque. She came back to the house with the money and she took me back to the hospital where they first attended to me. They said they will transfer him to Cuba where the surgery could be done. They gave me some treatment and said they will prepare the papers and let me go in two weeks. On Sunday within the week, Vero went to church and her pastor told her that her husband's condition can only be corrected through prayers. She came home with her pastor and some other members. They came to pray for me. After the prayer, the pastor said in few days, we will see miracles. With faith, we shouted a big Amen. The date for my transfer was due so I reported to the hospital so that the procedure could continue. The doctor said they needed to take an x-ray scan to attach to the documents that will be added to my referral letter. Miraculously, the doctor examined the result and said there will be the need for another one. They did it for three consecutive times and said the bones has been positioned where it was supposed to be so there will be no need for me going to Cuba. This is the kind of God we serve. He works in miracles and indeed with Christ in you, there will be hope of glory. I was to remain on admission for some days so that they correct everything. Few days after I was discharged from the hospital, we heard the news that Precious was pregnant for one of her lecturers on campus. This shouldn't be a surprise because a behaviour once formed is difficult to change. Her father called for the abortion of the pregnancy so that she could marry the man he planned for her. Precious equally agreed with her father and abortion was done successfully at the hospital. They arranged the actual marriage for her and the rich man. Their kind of wedding was very memorial. My father in-law was very happy that day. He wore an expensive cloth to portray his joy for his daughter. The number of cars that were present was uncountable. Despite I was not very fit, I was able to impress Vero a bit and she was okay with it. The money she got was from Mr Mike was given to me to start up a business. Vero is actually the love of my life.

Will Vero always be there for Makafui? How will life be for  Precious and her husband? There are more to be said. Your comments are very useful to us so please don't forget to like and comment.

Season 2 episode 6 will come tomorrow.... Stay blessed

Money over love Season 2 Episode 4

*JONES KWESI TAGBOR*

          *Money over love*💰

           Season 2
           *Episode 4*
             The accident affected my reproductive organ so what happened to my boss was gradually eating into myself and vero. She started behaving strangely towards me. She goes to work and comes back late. If I try complaining, she will only give some flimsy excuses. She was even the one who found the job as a driver for me. The sachet water factory belongs to her boss so when she explained things to him concerning my unemployment status and her boss gave me the opportunity to drive one of his vans. When the accident occurred, the factory footed the bill to some point and stopped. How I wished I had an insurance cover by then. The accident inflicted terrible pains on my spinal cord such that, I needed to undergo a surgery. I had to accumulate money to continue the surgery in order to correct the problem but the money was no where to be found. We used all we had to pay the court charges. When it's night, I do feel the pain in my spinal cord so there was no way I could have sex with my wife. Initially she was able to cope with the situation but as time went on, she started putting up this behaviour. One interesting thing we don't usually recognize is that, some behaviours can show a partner is cheating but might not necessarily be. Indications and suspicions does not always mean cheating. If you don't have a definitive proof of your wife cheating, don't let your suspicion carry you away and make accusations of infidelity. Be very sure of your facts before you draw conclusions, if not, you will just be building up pressure in your heart. Anyway, I think trust for each other also matters. What I'm saying doesn't mean you should wait until everything is out of hand before you take action. All I'm saying is have enough facts and don't put yourself into any unnecessary pressure. One evening, Faustina asked me how long I will remain in my condition instead of making her feel like a woman

Me:  Vero, I know how you are feeling.  Don't worry. I will be okay very soon. I know how much you love me. Help me raise money to complete the surgery."

Vero: My husband, I believe that you will be fine. I do feel bad seeing you like this. Don't worry. I will ask my father to help us.

Me: Your father? No. Please don't multiply the problems. How can you go to your father asking him to help us? I don't agree with you

Vero: I'm going as his daughter and not the wife of his enemy. I don't believe my father will listen to me and refuse to help us. He loves me and will be ready to do everything for me to be happy. You just leave everything to me.

Me: Hmm I'm just foreseeing danger ahead of me should you go to this man for help. I think we should rather check from Charles and his wife.

Vero: Yes that is not a bad idea.

A week later, she went to Charles' house but unfortunately, he wasn't in the country. She met his wife, Madam Faustina, only in the house. Madam Faustina expressed her wish to help but due to what happened, all their money was used to settle the hospital bills. She said she was not sure her husband could equally help. Vero came back to tell me about how it went. I felt bad but there was nothing I could do. I wouldn't say madam Faustina was wicked to us because we were all aware how much money was spent on her to bring her back to life. Vero suggested I start going to church and probably, the church could help raise funds for me. I explained to her that was not a good idea because going to church shouldn't be on a condition that I needed some material help from them. This has almost being the mindset of some people in church. They attend church because they want some material help from them. Yes, the church is more or less a society where there is the need for mutual support for one another but that shouldn't be the main motive for going to church. We go to church simply to worship God together as a group in order to secure our salvation. I agreed to join a church but not because of the help I needed. Few weeks later, Vero sneaked out of the house to her father's house. She was supposed to pick Junior Makafui from school that day but she didn't. She thought she could return before they close from school. She went to tell her father what was happening to me and requested for his help. My in-law just stood up and went into his room after Vero has finished saying what she had to say. He never uttered a word before going into his room. Vero was thinking he was going to probably take his cheque book to sign for her. She waited for long but he wasn't coming out. She decided to check on him at the room and saw him sitting by his table reading a news paper.

Vero: Dad I told you something but you never responded. I have been waiting for you to come and give me a response but you were not coming so I decide to follow up.

Dad: Do I look like a Father Christmas to you? Or have you heard in the news that your father has started operating some charity organization?

Vero: oh Dad please it hasn't gotten to that. Remember I'm still your daughter.

Dad: My daughter my foot. My daughter will listen to my advice and take instructions from me. My daughter will not feel like she knows better than her father. My daughter won't marry any good for nothing idiot like what you call your husband. Lady, you can see I'm reading on issues concerning this country and beyond. I wish you leave me to continue reading.

Vero: I want to believe you won't feel bad when something happens to me. I will fight for my husband and I know you will one day see miracles happen for us. I'm leaving.

Dad: Don't forget to close the door after you.

Her father said to her and with tears she went out. Vero thought her father had a change of mind when he called her back. "Come I have something good for you." Her father said. Vero eagerly returned and got closer to her father. "Take that brown envelope on the bed for me", her father requested. Vero went to take it for him and he asked her to sit down. All these while, vero's phone was off. She knew I  will call so she switched it off. Her father took the envelope and brought out a magazine. It was a magazine belonging to his network marketing company. He opened it and showed her a picture of one gentleman who was earning Ghc 3000.00 per week. He said that guy was still single and wanted a beautiful but intelligent lady to marry. "I told him I will give one of my daughters to him to marry. Precisely, I was referring to your younger sister. But looking at things, I can see you are not having any happiness in that thing you call marriage so I wanted to give you to him. Forget about that gateman. He has no future for you" Her Dad said.

Vero: Daddy I think we are coming back to class one. I told you severally that I don't want any other man than Makafui. Please let Precious get married to him and I'm sure you will be very excited to see your daughter marrying a millionaire. For me I'm out.

This time around, she never asked any permission but left the room. She looked at the wall clock in the hall and time was far gone. "Oh my God, Junior will still be waiting for me at school", she said to herself. She switched on her phone this time around and called to informed me that something went wrong somewhere so she will come and tell me later. She asked me to call someone to go in for Junior from school because, by the time she will get there, it will be too late. I told her I  already called the school so one of his teachers brought him to the house.

Vero came to narrate everything that happened in her father's house to me. I queried her that I had warned her not to go there but she didn't listen. She apologized and prepared supper for the home. As the days and weeks went past, my condition was just getting severe. I now found it difficult to even sit down. My better position was to lie on the bed. Vero was having the feeling that it won't be long and I will die if no action was taken. She said she wouldn't like to be called a widow at her tender age.

One day when she got to work, she decided to ask her boss who was the owner of the factory I worked with to support her in flying me out of the country for the surgery. Her boss said she should come to his house after work for any amount of her choice because he could feel the pain she was going through. Vero thanked her stars and even praised her boss with more bootlicking words. After work, Vero went for Junior at school and sent him home. She then said she had some appointment at her work side so she will join us later and  left to this man's house. Mr Mike, her boss, was equally married but he cheats on his wife. He was sometime ago reported contracted some STI but I was not very sure of that. That very day, his wife was not around at the time  Vero got there. He gave her a warm reception and later, brought out his cheque book and asked Vero to write any amount she wants on the cheque so that he signs for her. Vero wrote Ghc50,000.00 and handed the cheque back to him. Mr Mike saw the amount and smiled. "Vero all this money will be yours on just one condition" He said. The condition was Vero to satisfy him sexually that evening and any other time he requested for it. He placed the cheque on the center table and sat down. "Use what you have to get what you want", He said.

Do you suggest Vero should satisfy Mr Mike and get the money? Is Mr Mike free from any Sexually Transmitted Diseases? Let's check from the next episode. Don't forget to like and share your comments with us.

Season 2 episode 5 will come tomorrow.... Stay blessed

Money over love Season 2 Episode 3

*JONES KWESI TAGBOR*

          *Money over love*💰

           Season 2
           *Episode 3*
             I carried madam and was sending her into the car so that we rush her to the hospital. Come and see trouble for me. I was so nervous I was holding the car keys in my hand but was still searching for it in the room. "Vero please haven't you seen where I left the car keys?" I asked. "Sweetheart is that not the key in your hands?" Vero responded. I gave myself a knock on my head and dashed off the room. Vero helped clean the blood from Charles my boss but he said he was okay. He tied it with a bandage and decided to go with me to the hospital. He quickly went to his room and wore some clothes and without delay, we sped to the hospital. The nurses  came out and with a sense of eagerness and responsibility, took madam to the emergency unit and fixed oxygen on her. The doctor came around and prompted the need to put her on life support machine. Actually, the strength at which Precious smashed the bottle on her was very severe. My boss was also losing more blood. The bandage was soaked with blood and this drew the attention of the nurses. He was also admitted and due to the blood loss, they needed to infuse him with pints of blood. He was given more than six packs of blood because he was also gradually becoming unconscious. The doctor came few minutes after. They dressed his wounds and sent him to the male ward where he was admitted. After the atmosphere looked a bit calm, the doctor called me to his office.

Doctor: so what exactly happened in the house?

Me: Doc. I can't vividly tell how everything started. I'm their driver as well as the caretaker of their house. I was in my room when suddenly I heard a knock on my door this night. I came out only to see my boss bleeding so I thought probably there were some robbers around. I asked what the problem was but he refused to tell me. He only directed me to go help his wife in one of the rooms. I went and saw madam motionless on the floor. So quickly I rushed the two of them here.

Doctor: alright. I think this will need the concern of the police because something might be wrong somewhere.

Me: Oh I don't think there is the need now. Please attend to them to get well first before we find the cause. I want them alive because apart from God, they are my life.

Doctor: alright don't worry they will be fine.
I knew that when I should allow him to involve the police, Precious would definitely be made to face the full rigours of the law. Around 2pm that day, Mr Charles gained consciousnesses fully. He was discharged but madam was still in a critical condition. He was allowed to go and see her in the emergency room. I went with him and this was where he became furious with Precious. "I can't believe this is my wife, I am going to skin Precious alive." He said.  The doctor asked him what happened. "Doctor  there is a devil in my house. She caused all this." He said but I pretended I had no idea about what went on. He was able to narrate what went on but didn't add what he went doing in Precious' room at the time. The doctor made him sign a claim form which was sent to the police. Back home, Vero cooked breakfast in the morning for us but we were not coming. She went to check on Precious only to see her lying on the floor. She called out her name to see if she was okay. Precious woke up and started chasing her sister with a broken bottle. Luckily for my wife, together with the police, we arrived at the house and saw what was happening. The police managed to get hold of her and handcuffed her. My boss told the police Precious was responsible for the troubles in the house. They took her away and detained her behind bars for further investigations. My boss's father came to hear about what was going on and ordered the police to arrest all of us. He described what happened as a conspiracy against his son. He claimed we wanted to kill his son and take over his properties. The worse was my innocent wife who had no idea and my small boy. The Police came for all of us and locked us in a cell. My boss's father was a public figure ans very influential in the area so the police acted on his orders. The officer In charge of criminal investigation ordered his men to torture me so that I tell the truth. I was beaten and hurt with the flames of a candle. They minimized the torture on my wife because she was still breastfeeding the baby. After thorough investigations, my wife and son was allowed to go home but preparations was made for Precious and I to face the court of law. Precious started behaving strangely in the cell. She talked to herself and clapped to something no one could see nor hear. The police suggested they refer her to the Psychiatric hospital for assessment. When she was taken there, it was proven that she was experiencing Mania (A mental illness marked by periods of excitement, delusions and over activity).
After few weeks that Charles, my boss realized I had no idea about what went on, he told his father to let the police release me. His father was of the view that, he shouldn't entertain us in his house again. He then told his father what exactly went on and that he was the primary cause of everything because if he were not to snick out his wife, nothing as such could have happened. But he agreed not to allow Precious into the house. I equally blamed myself for the cause of the trouble because I should've obeyed the voice I heard in the forest by asking Precious out of the house before I gave the medicine to my boss. Eventually, they came to release us from the cell. I bet you, I wouldn't recommend the cell to any innocent soul. Life in there was mini hell. I wouldn't want to describe what I saw there because it was an eyesore. Vero felt sorry for me and hated her sister for life. I advised her not to because it wasn't her making. It was her mental condition that made her do all that she did. As indicated, the condition poses the individual to be very excited at times and do things he/she wouldn't have done when in her normal state hence Precious seducing men when it comes. They also do have delusions and becomes over active at times hence Precious chasing her own sister with the bottle.
I thanked my boss for ordering our release. I thanked his father too but he made it known he was not ready for a caretaker anymore so he insisted I pack and leave the house within two months. He said once Precious was able to do such a thing, he feared the condition is in their generic makeup so he is obvious the situation might repeat itself. Madam was already responding to treatment. What my boss did was he gave me money to rent another place where I could stay with my wife and son. Luckily too, we got a place which was not far from where vero works. Precious was also receiving treatment but we were fined to pay a huge sum of money before the case could be dismissed. The police explained that they would've imprisoned Precious for what she did but because she was diagnosed as a Psychiatric patient, she was charged to pay Ghc5000.00. It wasn't fair to me though. If my boss were not to go into the room, that wouldn't have happened.
When Vero's father heard of what went on, she said it served us right. He also blamed me for Precious' condition and due to this, he refused to pay the money. We were also given two weeks to pay the money and if not I will be held responsible since Precious was seen to be mentally ill. The medical bills my boss also needed to pay was very high. He needed to pay this money in order to save her life. I explained to my boss to help me pay for the court fines but unfortunately for me this time around, he said he was hard up. His building project must even be put on hibernation for sometime. I then asked Vero to help me pay for that money since she was also working. Out of love for me and her sister, she took all she had in her account and I added all I had but yet still, it wasn't up to the amount. I needed to borrow from some friends to add up. I fortunately got the money  and paid for the case to be dismissed. I've now come to class one again. We moved out of the house to our newly rented apartment. Thankfully, madam was discharged but could not remember anything that happened. It even took her days to recognize her husband. Now that I lost my source of income, my father in-law had a good standing to take Vero away from me despite the fact that I married her. Anytime Vero visited them, his main focus was that she should divorce me. Precious was also doing well on medication. Vero always stood firm that she loved me and nothing will make her leave me. She explained to her father that, love was not all about money. "Daddy am not complaining in my matrimonial home. Besides, my husband doesn't come begging for food from you before we eat. He loves me and I love him too. It is your daughter, Precious who is to be blamed for his financial handicap. I have the peace I want so Daddy with due respect, I am not leaving my husband alone. For better for worse, in riches or poverty, we will love each other. Just look at my son, is he not growing well? Daddy please reconsider your decisions" Precious said to her father. "Alright, well Said. I wish you the best." Her father said. Vero thanked him and left. After two years of treatment, Precious' condition became stabilized.  Most people feel mental illnesses cannot be cued. That is not really true. With continues medication and good enabling environment, the situation can stabilize and the person will be good to go but it also depends on the severity of the condition. Precious came back into her normal state and luckily for her, gained admission into the university to study Political science. I also got employed by one pure water factory to be the driver for one of their vans so I may say life was manageable for us until I was involved in an accident. Hmm to be a man is not just a matter of being a male but being able to face challenges. The accident affected my reproductive organ so what happened to my boss was gradually eating into myself and vero.

Will Vero change towards the man she loved? Let's check from the next episode. Don't forget to like and share your comments with us.
 

Season 2 episode 4 will come *tomorrow*.... Stay blessed.

Money over love Season 2 Episode 2

*JONES KWESI TAGBOR*

          *Money over love*💰

           Season 2
           *Episode 2*
            "Agbanavor can you read what is going on inside me?" She asked when we got into the room. "Madam please how?" I asked. "Come and let me explain to you. Come on. Why? Are you afraid of coming close to me? She asked. I walked towards her and this lady grabbed me with a hug. "Agbanvor make sure you kill this feeling within me before leaving this room." She said with a very romantic voice. "Madam please with all due respect, what you are expecting me to do will be the worse thing I will ever do in this world. I was lost when Mr Charles came to find me, this shouldn't be the right way of paying him back. Please let's not do this." I begged her. "Agbanavor am actually dying inside. You leaving me alone will be more than killing me slowly. Your boss won't know about this and I will make sure I provide all your needs including your wife's. Just help me. Okay I will give you Ghc1000.00 as soon as we are done." She held me by my waist whiles saying that. "Madam please I won't do it. Leave me alone to go. If you try pushing me to the wall, I will report you to my boss and you know what that will mean." I said to her. "Hey my friend don't even try it. Now you have to do this or else I will shout and say you want to rape me and you equally know what that will mean." She said back. Hmm just as my boss said, as a strong man, you will be faced with challenges, problems and setbacks but what makes the difference is how you are able to discipline yourself and overcome them. The voice that set me moving from my village also said life is full of choices, at every point in life's journey, one has to make a choice and every choice also has its implications. Yes I needed money to be independent and also self sufficient but not through an evil means such as this. How could I sleep with my own boss's wife? To be honest, this challenge was too tough for me to bare. It was through the same means that sent me out of my formal house and made my in-law hate me for life. If my in-law on earth should hate me for life, what then will God in heaven do? Am even not sure I will be judged before pushed into hell fire. "Madam please you know what you want us to do is against the will of God?" I asked. She remained silent and burst into tears. She went to sleep on her bed with her face bowed on the bed and cried more. "Madam please what is it? Why are you crying?" I asked. "Please I wish you could leave me alone inside. I want some privacy. " she said. "Okay sorry if I've offended you." I walked out of her room. You could see from my shirt that the room was warm so I was frightened what anyone that will see me coming out of the room will suspect and this was because when we entered, she didn't switch on the air condition. Immediately I stepped out, this was Precious standing by the wall leading to madam's room.

Me: Precious why are you standing here?

Precious: Makafui you've done well. But why are you sweating like this?

Me: why are you saying I've done well? I asked feeling guilty.

Precious: No need explaining anything. I overhead everything that went on inside. I'm only standing here to congratulate you.

Me: and what do you mean by that?

Precious: I didn't say you did anything wrong. Don't let your conscience deceive you. Am congratulating you on how you were able to deal with that tough Olympic tournament. I was in my room when I saw both of you going into her room so I suspected something hahaha. Oh but you've done well. My sister must be grateful for having you.

Me: hmm so Precious tell me why you ladies are like that? It was through this same means that I got your sister pregnant. You also tried it on me and now madam. Why?

Precious: haha are you telling me your history? Look, don't think it is only you men that has feelings and chase after ladies. We equally have and it's even stronger than what you guys experience. When it comes, we find our own ways and means of satisfying ourselves. So when we have any available man around, why won't we take advantage. I understand madam, her husband feels he can just marry such a beautiful woman like that and leave her at home to suffer. He thinks body be firewood.

Me: hmm really? Then I will suggest to you that it's not the best. You people need deliverance.  Where is my boy?

Precious: He is asleep.

I walked with her to see Makafui the Junior sleeping soundly. I thanked God I didn't push further for the abortion of the pregnancy. I went back to continue with my daily routines in the house. In the process, I thought about what just happened. If we thought what happened in that room was a secret between myself and madam but someone saw it long ago, then am sure God even saw the end before it started. Thank God I took the right decision. Soon my wife returned from work and there was joy in the house. Madam was just not in her normal mood for the rest of the day. All she did was to join us take supper and returned to her room. Precious also played her role well by not making madam know that she was aware of what went on. The following day, on our way to alight madam at her school, she apologized for what happened. "Agbanavor, am sorry for what happened yesterday, I actually don't know what came over me. Please forgive me." "Oh madam, you need not to be worried. I understand you very well. I think it will be good if you could explain things to your husband about how you do miss him when he is away, I think he can readjust his schedules so that he could equally have time for you." I said. "Hmm my brother, you should even be asking why till now I've not gotten pregnant. My husband has never satisfied me for once. It is barely seven months now since we got married. You won't understand." She said looking very worried. "Madam I understand everything you said. I will help you overcome all your difficulties." I said to her. "And what do you think you can do to help me?" She asked. "Don't worry, it will be in-between me and boss." I said to her. Soon we got to her school and I returned home. Everything in the house seemed to stabilize for some time until my boss returned from America. Per what madam was telling me in the car the other time, it seems my boss was not performing well in bed. This added to the reasons for him not staying home. Haha it could also mean madam's libidinal energy was higher than my boss could take. I thanked God I didn't try it for her to break my spine. On our way to inspect progress of his building project, I tried in my own way to find out if madam's claims were true.

Me: eei boss but so soon do you know you are almost getting a year old after your wedding ceremony?

Boss: Yes oo my guy, time is flying like a bird.

Me: but till now madam is still not carrying belly. Or are you waiting to complete your building before you hit harder? Haha

Boss: hahaha bad boy, that was what you did and impregnated someone's daughter. Hmm guy but on a more serious note you did well oo, yeah because it's not easy impregnating a lady. I've been doing all I should do but the pregnancy is still not coming.

Me: oh really! Okay boss let me see how best I can help you. You know am a village boy and know more about herbs. I will get you some to be taking and I assure you that sooner or later, she will beg you to stop and the next thing you will see is pregnancy.

Boss: are you serious with what you are saying? Like I will be forever thankful to you.
I assured him. I went into some forest close to the site to search for the herbs I will use for the medicines for him. It wasn't any big forest but it was more than a simple bush. Suddenly, I heard a voice telling me to look back. I turned and there was nothing behind me. I kept moving forward searching for the herbs. I was not finding the particular one I was looking for. I heard the voice again telling me to look back. All this while, the voice was saying I should take note of where I passed before reaching where I got to in the forest. I didn't notice that. I got to the middle of the forest and now, I couldn't locate my way back again. I also saw the particular herb this time around but where to pass and go back became the problem. I will come and appear at where I started in the forest. Time too was gone so my boss became worried for me not returning. He sent his boys to come into the forest and look for me. As soon as they started their search, I fell into a trance. In the trance, I saw the image I saw back in my village before leaving, and it said to me, "My son let your sister in-law leave the house before you give the herb to your boss if not she will make you loose everything." I came into consciousness when I heard a loud voice mentioning my name, it was the voice of the people searching for me. I responded so they were able to trace my voice and came to rescue me. I told them I lost my way out. I apologized to my boss for keeping him waiting. He said he was rather scared something happened to me. I showed the herbs to him but didn't tell him what went on in the forest. This time around, I ignored the voice because Precious was helping her sister. My boy too was growing well.
I dried the herb for one full week. I then asked him to use it as bitters. My number is xxxxxxxx call me let me get some of the herb for you. My boss started taking this medicine and come see things for yourself. For two and a half hours, he was still active. Just as I knew, he cancelled some of his business schedules and stayed at home. One afternoon, he sent me to the site to check something for him, his wife was gone to work, my wife also went to work. My boss's father traveled so basically it was left with Precious, my son and my boss. Precious took advantage of the situation. She seduced my boss and because my boss has his vitality drug under his bed, he used it and serviced Precious very well. They became secret lovers and were doing their own thing in the dark. This time around, madam was suspecting her husband against Precious. One night, Charles woke up quietly to Precious' room. They started having affair when madam woke up and realized her husband was not beside her on the bed. She started looking for him. First she checked the wash room but Charles was not there. She decided to check the kitchen and from their room to the kitchen, you need to pass in front of my room. When she got to my entrance, she heard a loud moaning from Vero and that increased her quest to look for her husband. She went into the kitchen and still Charles wasn't around. Something prompted her to check Precious' room. Lo and behold, the moaning from my room was even nothing compared to the one from Precious' room. The one Precious was giving was very loud so my boss was cautioning her to stop making noise. This was where madam nearly went mad. She pushed the door and it was locked. She knocked and Precious came out in a towel to open the door. Madam didn't ask her anything before slapping her very loud in the face. She pushed her away from the door and entered the room. Charles quickly went to hide himself inside the wardrobe in the room. "Where is my husband you stupid girl?" Madam asked. Before she could say additional words, Precious also replied with a heavy slap. It turned into a fight between madam and Precious. My boss realizing where the thing was getting to wouldn't help, he came out in his boxers to separate them. Madam got more furious and took some champagne bottle on the table to break Precious' head but luckily for her, my boss used his hands to block the bottle in the air but got a very deep cut in the end. Precious also wanted to use another bottle on madam and this time around, because of the pain my boss was going through, he couldn't save the bottle this time around, it landed on her heard and straight, madam went into coma. This was when Charles rushed to call me to help him. By then I was also just warming up for my next round when he came to call. I opened the door only to see him bleeding seriously. I asked what happened to him and he said it was nothing so I should help his wife. I was running towards his room when he redirected me to Precious' room. I got in and madam was lying restlessly on the floor. Precious was standing there with the towel on and looking at her without any concern. "Precious what is happening?" I asked. She was pointing at me with the remaining broken bottle. "Stop asking me questions if not you will receive your part of it." She said. "What has come over you? Are you getting insane?" I asked. "You are rather getting insane." She threw the bottle at me but I dodged it. I carried madam and was sending her into the car so that we rush her to the hospital. Come and see trouble for me. Due to anxiety, I was holding the car keys in my hand but was still looking for it in the room.

What has come over Precious? Will madam survive? What next? Let's check from the next episode. Don't forget to like and share your comments with us.

Money over love Season 2 Episode 1

*JONES KWESI TAGBOR*

          *Money over love*💰

           Season 2
           *Episode 1*
            "The lady you had wanted to marry at first happens to be the lady I've impregnated but because I was poor, her father does not want me to marry her." I said to him. "What!!!! Oh Agbanavor, and you never told me from the beginning? What if I were to go ahead and marry her?" He asked. "Sorry boss." I apologised. "I least expected this from you. Anyway it has already happened and I thank God Faustina came to save me. Let me see the list." He stretched forth his hands and I gave it to him. He took the list and studied it very well and smiled. "Haha my guy, am sure this list is suggesting that the lady becomes your personal property after marrying her. Why should you pay your in-laws at the end of the month and fuel their car for them? Ah this is nonsense. It has no meaning. Eemm this is what we will do, you don't need to disguise yourself as if you have turned rich. Since the ladies mother is ready to accept you, I will help you buy some of the items and tell them that was all you were able to get. Let them understand that you can't afford paying for their fuel every month and pay them in addition. Why, are you a bank where their daughter becomes their deposit?" He said and tapped my shoulders. I thanked him for the support and advice. He said I shouldn't worry. He inspired me with these words  "We all know that life isn’t that simple and that throughout our journey in life we might face numerous
challenges, problems and setbacks. The difference between people who succeed in life and those who don’t is their ability to face life's challenges correctly and not the absence of challenges. Agbanavor, I see you to be a strong and resilient person. And as such a person, you will get hit by setbacks and lifes' problems just like everyone else. If I should tell you how my father started before getting where he is now, you will just open your mouth wide. For me, I will say my father provided for me so I won't say I went through what you are going through now but my father did. Just learn how to face life’s challenges and that will help you become more successful and live a happier life." I thanked him for such powerful words. He said I should do the arrangements fast because he needs to travel abroad in three weeks time. He gave me the money to buy the most pressing things on the list. I went to inform Vero and her family that I was ready to do the marriage ceremony. All these while, the baby was not named but Vero kept calling him after my name Makafui. I went with some of the guys working on my bosses building to fix the date for the ceremony. You won't believe it, Vero's father said he forgot to add damaging fee to the list. My friend laughed uncontrollably because what the man was saying was too funny to comprehend. This man got pieced up and asked him to go out of his house because no one can decide for him. Anyway I don't blame him. It could be one of those symptoms of old age. This man said he wouldn't let this marriage thing of mine disrupt his schedules for the year so he gave a date that won't favour my boss. I pleaded for a change but he as usual refused. He just didn't like anything about me. I used to think that it was only women that demonstrate such behaviours but my in-law changed my perception. He never allowed me to go into Vero's room to even chat with her because he said until I marry her, I can't go close to her. We only planned a traditional wedding. I came to inform my boss about the date and he said I shouldn't worry, he will reschedule some of his activities so that he makes time for me. Hmm, I always believe the saying that God is not man to lie nor are our ways his ways. Once He has written something about you, He will find ways and means of making you achieve it. Just look at how someone I know from no where has time for me whiles my own blood relations rejected me. If man rejects you, your father in heaven rejects you not. I just found myself a new family. My boss asked me to travel back to my village and invite my relatives to come and witness the ceremony for me. I told him that was not necessary because they never for once thought of looking for me to see if am still alive or dead. I told him his family and some few friends are enough for me. I did nothing like invitation cards as well. Hmm, on the day of the marriage ceremony, Vero's father said he was not feeling very well. My friends who came to witness the program were seated, Vero's family were also present excluding her father. This man claimed he was having stomach pain so we should give him time. He came nowhere near the venue of the ceremony neither did he go to the hospital. We waited and waited for this man to come but he wasn't coming. His wife went into his room only to find her husband almost dying. She started shouting on top of her voice so we all thought this man was dead. I went inside to see what was going on only for me to see this man struggling to breath. I quickly asked for his car keys and rushed him to the hospital. All these while, our guests were seated waiting for us.

I told the nurses that we need his presence in the house very badly. They said we should pray his condition stabilize faster. After some few hours at the hospital, my to-be in-law regained his consciousness. He was given some energy booster and was told his family needs his presence at the house so he should go home and after the program, he should return to hospital for review. He said there was no need for him going home because what was going on in his house was not to his wish. We pleaded with this man until he accepted to go with us. I was just sorry for my guests who came very early in the morning and was waiting till that time. Some of them couldn't wait longer so they left. We got to the house around 4:00pm. Due to this, we need to fast tuck the program in order to finish early. One of the elderly men working on my bosses building acted as my father and my boss's wife acted as my mother. When it got to the part of the program where we needed to present the items, my in-law asked where her daughter's car was and also he couldn't see the in-laws fuel allowance as well as some other funny things he wrote. Her wife who was my mother in-law came to my rescue and said I told her we will bring them later. This man said since her wife was taken decisions on his behalf, she should continue with the rest of the program. He got angry and went into his room. Everybody around started talking against this man. Vero told her that he was disgracing himself as well as she herself. Honestly, the ceremony was  nothing good to write home about. We did something to represent something and after, I took my wife and son with me.

Precious accompanied us in order to help vero with babysitting. She has completed  high school so  was free at home. When we got home, my boss gave us additional room where Precious could stay.  Two days after that scanty engagement, Precious came to me one evening whilst her sister was resting in the room. She said she was sorry for what happened between us and besides, she wasn't in a good mental state so I should forgive her. She said it was the work of the devil. Well, the devil should stop harassing people so that they stop blaming him even if he exist. "Precious, I have nothing against you but make sure you don't repeat such awkward behaviour in this house. You are very much aware that this is not my house so with the little thing you do, we can be sent out." I said to her. She thanked me and went into her room. I never allowed the opportunity given to me change my behaviour. I continued my work in the house as usual. In the morning, I will carry my boss's wife to school and when she closed, I will still go for her. Despite her happiness being married to my boss, she still had an emotional conflict. Her problem was that her husband doesn't have enough time for her. This is my advice to the ladies that want to marry such rich men, because they won't want to loose their financial status, they work harder and that makes it difficult for him to stay home. So if you are married to them be prepared to enjoy living alone when he is not around. Especially those of them doing international businesses. Hardly will my boss spend a full week at home. Today he is going for this meeting, tomorrow he is traveling, tomorrow next he needed to attend a conference etc. It was due to his busy schedules that made him like me that much because I was always there for him. The love between myself and vero was also growing well and anyone that sees how we cared for each other feels like getting married. Precious was also in the house doing the babysitting. Vero gained employment at some rural bank in our area so that also increased the need for Precious to continue to stay with us. After some few months, Precious started showing her devilish part to my boss. Naturally she is beautiful and there was no two ways about that. My boss started having interest in her to the extent that he doesn't give too much attention to his wife anymore. I realized that Precious started wearing very short skirts and dresses that exposes her sensitive parts. Madam Faustina also noticed this and asked me to talk to her. Madam was also beginning to have interest in me because her husband doesn't have time for her. One afternoon, madam called me from school and said she wasn't feeling well so I should come and take her home. Vero also went to work so it was left with Precious and Makafui the Junior. My boss as usual was not around and his father also has a different flat within the same building. I went for madam and on the way, she bought some medicines to cue her headache. When we got to the house, she said she was very weak so I should carry her on my back into her room. "Madam please Precious might suspect something going on between us should she see this." I said to her. "Alright don't worry. Just help me with my bag to the room." She requested. I took the bag and followed her into the room. "Agbanavor can you read what is going on inside me?" She asked when we got into the room. "Madam please how?" I asked. "Come and let  me explain to you. Come why? are you afraid of coming close to me? She asked. I walked towards her and this lady grabbed me with a hug. " Agbanvor make sure you kill this feeling within me before leaving this room." She said with a very romantic voice.

Will Makafui forget about his past so soon? Did Precious noticed what was going on? What next? Let's check from the next episode. Don't forget to like and share your comments with us.

Money over love Season I Episode 10

*JONES KWESI TAGBOR*

          *Money over love*💰

           Season I
           *Episode 10*
            Vero's father: this bustard has made me turn into a laughing stock. Hmm.
He took his car keys from the side table and without saying anything further, dashed out of the room. This man was moving towards me with some form of force when he came out. I stood firm waiting to face him squarely. "Hey you, you dare not come to my house or else I will personally skin you alive. Never try to make these people know about this. Don't try me." He said sounding like a hungry Gorilla. "Only God knows what you are up to." I said back to him. He went into his car and sped off as if he was running away from a time bomb. After he left, Charles then explained to his father that Vero was pregnant for another man so there was no way he as a young guy would marry a lady carrying somebody's pregnancy. Well I know if you were in my shoes, you would've done same. Said Charles to his dad. He then told his father about Faustina. He explained to his father how well cultured and humble she was and added that she was an English teacher.

His father: so where is she coming from and what does she worship?

Charles: Daddy she is an Ewe and a Christian as well.

His father: my son I've always been warning you against Ewe girls but you are still following them.

Charles: hmm dad and that's where you're getting it all wrong. All humans are not created equal. The fact that an Ewe woman did something bad to you before does not mean all Ewe women or men are the same. Agbanavor is an Ewe, but he saved this family.

His father: Alright just as I told my friend that want you to marry his daughter, do what you think is best for you. You are of age but I pray you don't come back to me telling me you should've listened to me.

Charles: daddy nothing will happen. I will invite her home soon for you to see her.
His father now allowed Charles to do what he thinks is right. Well, I won't say that was disobedience because at times, our parents must allow us take decisions for ourselves. If they continue to decide for us when will we grow up to reason and also make decisions for ourselves? Better still what happens to us when they are no more? We've got no decision making experience so we will technically be unfit for even employment in this "life full of decision making" organizations. The certificate alone is not enough. On the side of tribe. Hmm, it's an issue. Most parents will not allow their children marry from some particular tribe because of probably a past experience. I wish to inform them that, we are all not the same. Despite historical backgrounds, that was yesterday. Due to civilization and modernization, things have changed. Gone were those days where a lady would only be informed that a man has come to marry her without dating. She can't even disagree, but truly speaking those marriages even last what we see today. Today, these two people are allowed to date for a while and through that they study each other and know each other's strengths and weaknesses. Am not saying some people don't fake when dating. Some because are too desperate to have a particular person, will do all it takes to impress the other party. Few months or years into the marriage, their true colours begin to pop up.  Probably that tribe you were against will be the tribe that would bring you evaluating peace of mind and build your family. But to the youth, marriage is not as simple as you see it. That is why you don't just need to jump into it. Some say it is a full subject to be studied. I pray God opens your eyes well to make the right choice. Yeah it is all about choice making. Not all that glitters is gold. Some are just decorated masquerades, after you unveil them, you will know who they are. Ask God for direction.
My boss started dating Faustina and brought her to the house during one of the weekends. Honestly speaking, she was beautiful and Charles' father himself could attest to that fact. This lady impressed everybody by her delicious and sumptuous meal prepared. Am yet to taste another food that tasted like hers. Probably my mother would've done best if she was around. A hallmark of a good woman. Some ladies were over pampered when they were young and were made not to even go close to fire. They were protected like crates of egg to the extent that the best they can do is to que for fast-food. Cooking becomes their problem when they become independent. Some of them too were just lazy and will never want to help their mother's in the kitchen to see the food is been prepared.  They see cooking as a form of punishment. When they get to their matrimonial homes, cooking becomes a tag of war. It's either the salt is too much or the rice turns into water. What a shame. Ladies no man want a woman who cannot cook so the choice is yours. Today, most of them can't even prepare "Gorbe" let alone prepare Jollof rice or "Akple with Fetrí détsi" as they call it. They should just wait and get married before they will know the importance of cooking.
Vero's father never made her daughter know that he saw me. He kept it a secret to himself and I equally wouldn't want to commit myself by going to look for her.
In some few weeks time, it was planned for my boss to get married to sister Faustina. If I should tell you about Faustina's beginning, you will be marvelled. She also started from the scratch just as I did so she understood me very well when I narrated my history to her. Because she was an English teacher, she started teaching me how to read and write. On their engagement day, the whole atmosphere was filled with joy. Invitation was sent to Vero's father but he didn't honour it. He felt his daughter was the right person to be doing that engagement and not Faustina. Vero's belly was gradually gathering momentum and all sort of questions were popping from all angles. "When did your daughter get married and you didn't tell us? Who is the owner of the pregnancy" among other questions were ringing inside his ears.
Because Charles has a lot of friends abroad, he decided to do the wedding there. I was the only person left in the house when they left to do the wedding. His mother and other siblings were also there just that his mother and father were no more together as husband and wife. That was the source of the hatred Charles' father had for the Ewes. He claims an Ewe woman deceived him and made him leave his wife with the idea that he could marry this woman who was very rich and well educated but unfortunately, it didn't happen as expected.
Days turn into weeks, weeks into months and gradually Vero's date was due to give birth. My boss' wife Faustina was now a full time member of the house just that her husband's house was not ready for them to move in. Anytime she closes from school, she will come and organize a special class for me. I started reading and writing basic English. I also learnt how to drive and I do drive her to school every morning and brings her back after she closes.
On the day Vero went into the labour room, I was seriously giving order's to the constructors on my boss's building project. Unfortunately for her she had some complications so they rushed her into the theater for caesarean section (CS). The baby was removed but they realized she started behaving abnormally after everything. She doesn't want to even see her baby let alone talk of even giving her breast milk. She was seen mentioning repeatedly my name "Makafui". They tried to figure out what her problem was but couldn't so they invited the  mental health officer incharge to asses her to see if there was any mental health disorder. After the assessment, she was diagnosed of Perprah  psychosis. A psychological disorder which normally affect women mostly after giving birth and has problem with their husbands. They will displace the anger to the babies and may even abandon them. Some of resort to throwing the baby onto the refuse bump. This is a mental health issue. The mental health nurse requested that they call the Makafui person she was mentioning so that they do further investigation into Vero's condition. Vero's mother said they don't know the whereabouts of me. The nurse insisted they should try and look for me if not the situation will go out of hand. Vero's father initially didn't want to show them where I was but because he saw that he was gradually going to loose his daughter, he told them that they should give him two days to fetch me out. They injected Vero some injections to calm her condition down so that she could breastfeed the baby. She even gave birth to a baby boy who resembles me very much. I guess my blood is very strong.  I was at the site doing my work when they came to call me that I should report to the 37 military hospital. The reason was not disclosed to me so I was wondering what the problem was. My boss left the country that day so I only prayed he was not the one involved in any form of accident. Lo and behold, I met Vero's family at the out patient department (OPD). Precious was the one who called me first. I asked them what the problem was and they led me to the mental health unit. From there a nurse escorted me to the female ward to see Vero. She was in bed when I got there. Someone who was according to the nurses weak and could not do anything for herself, shouted very loud upon seeing me. She woke up from the bed and came to hug me tightly.  Everybody was surprised seeing this scene. Vero's father after seeing what was going on went to his car and left the hospital. "Makafui where have you been and why did you leave me alone here?" She asked with tears in her face. "Where am I and why is everybody looking at me like this?" She asked. Her mother came closer and told her that she was unconscious after undergoing the CS. From all indications, her psychosis was gone. Glory be to God. At times, we don't need medicine to control some of these psychological difficulties. She asked of her baby and shed tears upon seeing the bouncing baby boy (BBB). Because of the CS and the medications she was takingn, she needed to stay behind for additional two days before they could discharge her. I came home and reported the case to sis Faustina. She suggested I make preparations to marry her. In the evening, I went to check on her and I told her I still love her. I didn't want them to know that I was using a car so I didn't go with the car. She was discharged and called her father to come and pick us. When this man came, he said I should come with a commercial car. That wasn't a problem to me. I got myself a car and followed them to Kpone. A meeting was called and at the meeting, I requested for the marriage list so that I can go and prepare myself and return to marry their daughter. Seriously speaking, I got choked when I saw the list presented to me. They were even surprised I could read. Among the things in the list was "the man must have his own house and car, fuel in-laws car every month and pay his in-laws every month. One cow and a car for the lady" "But in-law this list is irrational. How on earth do you expect me to fulfill all these things on the list?" I asked "Don't in-law me my friend, you are even not my friend. You requested for list, I've given it to you and you call it irrational?" He asked. "Sorry sir" I apologized. "A beggar has no choice. If you know you can't afford marrying my daughter, turn your back and you will see a door, walk through it, you will be outside. When out, you will see a gate, pass through it and never return to my house." He said. "Daddy if you don't change some of those things in that list, I will pack my things and follow him through the direction you just gave." Vero said. "You dare not do anything like that. You are the cause of all this disgrace to this family. Do what you think is right for you." Vero's father said and went into his room. Her mother took the list ,read it and smiled. She said I should go and get what I could afford and come for the ceremony. I thanked her and left. I went to give the list to my boss' wife and she said I should wait till my boss returns so that he will go with me to see them for a cancelation of some of the things. My boss returned and I did as suggested. "Agbanavor since when did you get a lady pregnant and where the hell is this outrageous list from?" He asked. "Boss it's a long story." I said to him. "Look every long story can be cut short. Am listening." He said. "The the... I was the ... Boss hmm let me tell you." I was very confused and didn't know where to start from. "The lady you had wanted to marry at first happens to be the lady I've impregnated but because I was poor, her father does not want me to marry her." I said to him. What!!!! "Oh Agbanavor, and you never told me from the beginning? What if I were to go ahead and marry her?" He asked. "Sorry boss." I apologised.

Will that marriage ceremony be successful? What are the plans of vero's father? What of Makafui's boss getting to know that Makafui was the one responsible for vero's pregnancy?

Money over love Season I Episode 9

*JONES KWESI TAGBOR*

          *Money over love*💰

           Season I
           *Episode 9*
            This guy came to the site the following two days looking very worried. I asked what the problem was and he said the woman he had wanted to get married to said she was pregnant for someone else. I asked the name of the lady and the guy mentioned it as Vero. "Vero! Oh I see, sorry about that." I said to him. "But why did you ask?" He asked. "Sorry sir I just asked." He took me round the land showing me the boundary I should work to. "Sir you said if I finish with the work I should see you. Please can you tell me the other work you have for me?" I asked with a very respectful voice. "Yeah. But what do you do for living?" He asked speaking this American English. I equally replied with my broken English which one needs to pay close attention to before he/she could understand. "Am not doing anything at the moment Sir. All I do is to work for people just like am doing for you." "OK so where do you stay before coming to work here?" He asked. "I don't have a place sir, I do sleep in the uncompleted house there" pointing at an uncomplicated building in a distance. He looked surprised. I told him it will take us days for me to finish telling him about my past so he shouldn't worry himself asking. I know if I should tell him more, I will end up exposing myself as the owner of Vero's pregnancy so I wasn't even ready to answer further questions. "Am based in America and want someone to be taking care of my daddy's house. Of late, thieves have been disturbing the house because he normally doesn't stay home." He said to me. "Sir am very ready to do it." I said. There is this interesting phenomenon in life; When one door closes, quickly another opens or a gate will open for you. That is why we need not dwell too much on our past and it's troubles. Even God forgets your past when you come to Him so why should you burden yourself with things of yesterday? Yesterday is gone and won't come again so focus on today and make a better use of it. After all is there not a saying that "forward ever and backward never"?. "All this while I didn't ask of your name. What's your name?" He asked. I mentioned Agbanavor to him because I was wondering if they mentioned Makafui to him as the person who impregnated Vero. "OK speed up with the work and meet me later. Another man was added to me in order to finish up early so the work was almost finished when we started our conversation. Two days later, I finished with my part of the work. The foreman came to pay us and said he will need our services again so we shouldn't go far. The American guy came to inspect the progress on the work and after, I informed him that I was ready for the job we spoke of. He asked me to join him in his car so that we go. My first time of sitting in a private car. I opened the passengers door and quickly closed it. I got frightened at first when that cold air blew on me. "boss please do you have ice block in the car? Inside is very cold." I asked. He laughed uncontrollably and said no and told me it was AC. He then explained what the AC does. You can't blame me oo.  I was a village boy so you should understand. Some of you out there were once like me and had such experiences but you are laughing at me now because yours wasn't revealed. Something mysterious happened on our way to the house. It was just the two of us in the car and it was about 5pm. Suddenly, another vehicle overtook us and all we noticed was they opened fire on us. One guy with a mask on his face shot at our car but fortunately for us, the bullet penetrated the windscreen and passed in-between us. There was no other car following us too. They made a sign for us to stop. My boss stopped the car and packed. Two men with mask came out of the car with pistols and said we should bring everything we had. I just noticed these guys were robbers. My boss took his bag out and gave it to them. One of them collected the bag and wanted to check if there was money in it. He placed his pistol in his trousers and left the handle. I remembered my days with my gangs way back in my village. Some of our skills just flashed into my mind. I kicked the pistol in the hand of the other guy and pointed it at him. The one with the bag wanted to take his and instinctively, I shot him on the chest. He left the bag and fell to the ground. Quickly my boss called the Police and in no time, they were around. They rushed the injured robber to the hospital and handcuff the other one to the Police Station. We followed them to the station and my boss was made to write a statement. He thanked me for saving him and getting his money for him. The other guy was locked in the cell and we were told to come back later because they will be preparing them for court. The Police asked my boss to leave his car at the station for investigation so we went home with a Taxi.

Boss: my guy, you have done very well. With what you have done now, I am not employing you as a houseboy but as the care taker of the house. You will have access to a fully furnished room and a car. Because I will be going back to America very soon, you will be supervising my building project for me as well.
Me: Boss, thank you very much. God bless you for this kind gesture shown to me. You don't even know me well but you trusted me just like that.

Boss: You see, there were two things involved. It was either I was dead by now or you were dead after those guys shot at us. If you were to die, I would have blamed myself for your death because I asked you to follow me. Now the robbers would have taken all my money away and even the car. So as a form of appreciation, I decided to honour you with the privileges I've just given you.

Me: Thank you very much. I pray you get a woman of your choice to marry.

Boss: Amen Agbanavor. This is one of my reasons for coming back to Ghana. I had a girlfriend before leaving to America. Now that am ready to get married to her, my father is of the view that he doesn't like that tribe and also the lady was not educated. I agreed with him on the basis of she not been educated because per my standard, I need an educated woman. He recommended Vero to me but that was the news I was welcomed with. She is pregnant for another guy. Am just wondering why they want their pregnant daughter to get married to me.

Me: hmm boss don't worry. You will get what you want. The robbery case was called. Very unfortunately, the guy who received the gunshot couldn't survive. He died a week after the incident. The second guy was charged to pay for damages caused the car, attempted murder and robbery. He was to serve a jail term of 35years. Well, I felt bad for the one who died but on a second thought, what would have happen to any of us should his bullet hit any of us? It serves him right. I didn't attend school, but am able to fight for my life and hustle to make a living. Why should today's youth feel too lazy to work? All they need is quick money. They will always tell you there is no job available so government should create jobs for them. I pity them. There are lot of jobs around us but we feel too big to do them. If you ask someone selling sachet of water and ask him what work is he/she doing? The response is there is no work so this is what am doing for a living. What shows that what you are doing is no work? Look the fingers are not the same oo. Some are longer than the others and in the same way, we cannot all do white color jobs. Some of us must sell, others must serve others and many more. Remember, all animals are equal but some are more equal than others. That is just a food for thought.
Some few weeks later, my boss decided to do some shopping at the Accra mall. We traveled all the way from Tema to Accra for shopping. Mistakenly, my boss was receiving a phone call and crushed with this beautiful lady who was carrying a basket full of provisions. "Oh sorry dear. I was on the phone so I didn't see you coming." My boss apologized to the lady and helped her pick the things that fell on the floor. "Oh don't worry. I should rather be saying sorry because I should have used the other lane when I saw you coming." the lady said. The way the lady responded showed how well cultured she was. She never took any quarrels with my boss. The way my boss started looking at this lady was suggesting something to me. "Do I know you from somewhere?" My boss asked looking marveled. "Is this not Faustina?" He asked. "Yes am Faustina. How do you manage to know my name?" She asked. "Hmm this world is a small place. Am Charles your boyfriend way back in secondary school. "Oh my God! Charles!! Hmm so this is how the world is. After getting what you want from me, you vanished into space." The lady said. "Dear that was not it. I traveled small and since I came, I've been searching for you. I don't even have your number. Please let's go and get somewhere to sit." my boss said to her. He paid for all that she bought and together we moved to a restaurant around the mall. I gave them some privacy and from look of things, the two love birds were agreeing to each other. When they finished, my boss introduced her to me as the person he told me about. "Sis Faustina it's nice meeting you." I said to her. They planned a date and my boss gave her a lift to a bus stop where she took a taxi home. On our way back home, my boss was very excited. He said the lady was able to further her education when he left the country so she was now a teacher. I was happy for him.

In vero's house.
Daddy was able to convince Vero to accept marriage to my boss. He said I was gone so it will be better she agrees to marry my boss so that she doesn't remain a single mother. Because she search for me for long, she came to terms with her father. Due to this, Vero's father decided to come and beg my boss so that they can have the marriage ceremony. My bosses father was also around one afternoon when the car horn blew at the gate. I rushed to open and behold, it was Vero's father. He was surprised seeing me.

Vero's father: heer! What are you doing here you bustard ?

Me:Sir please I won't allow you to insult me. Who the hell do you think you are?

Vero's father: what? You are insulting me?
My boss called and asked what was happening. "Nothing sir, this man is just trying to be difficult." I said to him. Vero's father warned me to stay out of his way.

"Oh Mr Charles you are home. Don't mind your gate man. He was preventing me from seeing you." Vero's father reported. "Sorry about that. Come inside." Mr Charles who happens to be my boss asked him in. His father also came out to welcome him as they sat down to chat. They exchanged pleasantries and asked why he was around. "Am here because of my daughter. Actually, she was not very mentally sound the last time you came to meet her. She has now agreed to marry your son; Charles." He said. Charles never allowed him to land when he interrupted.

Charles: sorry to disappoint you sir. I've already found another lady. It's just that am yet to tell my father the good news. If you care to know her name is Faustina. She is equally beautiful as your daughter but she is not pregnant. I will advise you go and look for the father of your daughters pregnancy so that they get married. Your daughter loves the person that was why she told me directly that she was pregnant for someone. "
Vero's father was worried.

Charles father:  Eerm my good friend, I know you want the best for your daughter. I equally want the best for my son. Let's allow them to make their own choice.

Vero's father: this bustard has made me turn into a laughing stock. Hmm
He took his car keys from the side table and without saying anything further, he dashed out of the room. This man was moving towards me when he came out.

What will happen in that house?  Let's go to the next episode to find out more. Don't forget to like and share your comments with us.
