This is serious but funny and funny but serious. I had to choose just one from the three ladies I was seeing as at then. The three of them were beautiful and caring, and they all came from a good family background.
One of them had her masters in Philosophy, one a dentist and the other was in her final year studying English Language.
Aside from the one still in school, the two others were independent.
I’ve known the philosopher for three years, the dentist for a year and the linguist for three years also.
I love the dentist more because she was always very beautiful whenever she’s on her laboratory coat, she works at the general hospital close to my office (I actually met her there when I went to remove my teeth). She’s always busy during the day but she always have all the time in the world when she’s through at work, it’s either she’s with me or she’s at work.
The philosopher was also beautiful, hardworking and industrious (she’s an entrepreneur, she own a small publishing firm but it’s quite very big now) but she loves doing whatever is on her mind, irrespective of the consequence(s) (I don’t want to use the word stubborn) the other day, I begged her to help me get food when coming, she not only didn’t get the food, she didn’t come, when I asked her why she didn’t come, all she said was ‘nothing’.
The last girl, she’s always like ’please I’m very busy’, she’s kind and understanding, though still childish sometimes as she wants to be at every party, every cinema, she wants to have the latest phone, clothes etc., she wouldn’t listen to simple advices, she wants to do her things her way, no interference. I learnt to live with her, but I always knew something deep down within me that we might not last, but I gave everyone of them equal chance, I tried not to be biased in choosing because I know it’ll definitely backfire.
I told my uncle about it, he advised me on what to do and what not to do. I tried my best to do them, I tried my best to fair to them.
I prayed and fasted for 33 days about it, I started getting signs on the 28th day when the dentist called me to come and see her parents (though we already had a plan to go and see her parents) we went there together on a Sunday afternoon, the Mum was so full of life, just like her daughter, her dad, very quiet and a bookworm. After series of questions from them, the man told me point blank that they cannot give me their daughter because I’m a Christian while they are strong Muslims.
So, one down two to go.
The next day, (day 29 of my fasting), after rounding up at the office, I called the other girl in school, (because I didn’t hear anything from her all through the weekend, we were planning on going to see the other girls parents), her phone rang the first and second time she didn’t pick, them I sent her a message asking her how she’s doing. Then like an hour time, she called me telling me how much she loved me and all sort and how she felt she cannot continue with the relationship, I wasn’t so happy and I was also very happy inside me.
So, two down one to go.
That same night, around past 8. I received call from the philosopher, telling me she didn’t love me from day one, but she just want to be using me to pass time, now she has found her missing rib. And I replied ‘I’m very happy for you’.
God did it, three girls gone in the space of two days. I was so so relieved and I started having inner peace within myself.
I didn’t sleep all through that night, I was telling God that ‘now that you’ve taken the three ladies away from me, please God, replace them with one’ I prayed all through the night.
The next day, I showered and got prepared for work, then my boss called me to help him do some transactions at the bank before coming to the office, my boss already called the branch manager of the bank that I was coming so I’ll not be delayed. Then I got to bank, Lo and behold, I met a young, pretty damsel at the counter.
Immediately I saw her, something inside me told me ‘this is what I’m using to replace the three of them’.
When She said ‘hi’, I felt something melting inside me. Then I replied, then started conversation.
After my transactions at the bank, I went to meet hr by the counter again, this time giving her my complimentary card. Then left with my heart filled with joy.
We we’re chatting all through that day (we we’re both at work, but we didn’t care). We just clicked.
Later that day, I called her and we spoke at length, she has everything i love in a lady (I’ll not tell you, lol😁).
The first day she came to my house, she came with food stuffs and ingredients to cook them. She also came with pot (it was like someone already told her I love food). I had one of the beginning of my best weekend that day.
We got married some months later, and since then till now, she’s still in my house as my wife.
I always bless the day I met her.
I always thank my boss for sending me to the bank the day I met her.
And above all, I will forever be thankful to God Almighty for everything He has done in my life.
If you’re in a similar situation as me, I’m 100% sure if you try God, you’ll get the best from every situation.
It’s been God.
Thanks for your time.
