The voice of blood
Carolina was still in rehab and hadn't really recover. The silence and idleness would not stop making her think the more. At work, they were already pestering her to come back but after few days, they got to know where she really was and started planning to replace her. She was also lagging behind with school activities and she already had some extra years. For her, it was as if the world was ending soon. In fact, she has been planning on suicide.
The moon shone brightly, as she walked towards her house, it was as if the moon was on her trail and was pointing her in her direction. She was walking home like an actor in a movie who had just finished the mission. In no time, she got to the door and knocked.
It was a risk in her part but love was still convincing her to do it. It was a battle between her and her family and it ended with her leaving their house after lots of arguments though they wouldn't allow her but she insisted and left in anger.
Ademi was surprised to get a knock on his door by that time of the night. Not like he had a friend. In his mind as he walked towards the door, he thought it was either the manager of the hotel or any of the attendants who has vital information for him. 'Please who's there?' He finally asked right in front of the door.
'It's Catherine' she said in a tone sounding rather tired and frustrated. She got in and walked towards the chair immediately without waiting for Ademi's go ahead. She cleared her throat several times wanting to answer to Ademi's 'why have you come' question but she didn't know how to start with her explanations.
She handed a file with a few number of slips to him and asked him to check it out. In Ademi's mind, he thought she had helped him get license to stay longer or came for another assignment for him. Then when he saw it was a document for court wedding, he asked: 'what is this about?'
Catherine let the cat out of the bag but Ademi killed the cat immediately. 'Catherine! It's not possible. I can never marry you and i have my reasons. I know you are trying to help me stay but this is not possible please'
Catherine was disappointed and thought herself so low to demand such a thing. Tears found their way out of her eyes and she went ahead to explain how she had gone a long way to make this happen. She couldn't contain what happened so she left for home.
At that time of the night, it was risky for her and that landed her in the midst of gangs who took advantage of her. They took all her belongings but they didn't touch her. It was on her way home she sustained minor injuries because the shock was on her. She was able to get help that night and was rushed to the hospital.
Ademi thought about his life after few minutes Catherine left his room. 'I can't find Carolina and i have two days to go back, how sure am I that i would see her and even if i do, wouldn't it be too late to get my permanent stay? which means i will go back to my country and begin a new life, looking for job and all. But if i marry Catherine, i can see Carolina and explain what happened and things can be corrected. Which should I go for? My head please decide the best for me' Ademi was on this thought all night without a single sleep.
In the morning, he landed in the hospital where Catherine was. He was surprised to hear that she was in the hospital and went there to ask what happened. The pity, the feelings and Ademi's thoughts got him to spill out to Catherine 'I am ready to marry you Catherine. I didn't mean to hurt you yesterday and in fact, you are the one helping me but i had a reason bothering my mind but never mind. I am off it and i am ready to start a new life with you'
Catherine was very happy and in no time, she was out of the bed and left with Ademi. Ademi married her that day and they started a new life.
Night came and it was time to unlock the night exercises but Ademi rejected. He gave the excuse of being tired but in his mind, he wanted to sort things out with Carolina first and to break the commitment. His excuses were different with each day, he restrained until he knew Catherine wouldn't take it lightly anymore. So he decided to let go and do the needful as her husband.
Carolina had begun to stay too long at the rehab and her parents were beginning to get worried for her. They took her away to another highly recognized therapist who took her through a long walk into her relationship with Ademi. It took time but she spilled everything out and for the first time, she told her about the oath too.
Something bad almost happened the night Ademi decided to satisfy Catherine with sex, throughout the time they tried to have sex, Ademi's Penis was not coming up. Just like a faulty generator does, it would start work but when load is applied, it would go off immediately. They tried severally and in fact, Catherine tried to stimulate it to work but this on and off thing was the order of the day.
Telling the therapist alone came to Carolina as a relief from a heavy burden, coupled with the acceptance and professionalism of the therapist. She worked on her mind especially her mindset and in few days, Carolina was already getting better. She had started to reduce her rate of unfriendliness and was already giving positive look to life again.
Different thoughts were running through Catherine's mind as she was sweating and was looking straight to Ademi wanting him to explain what was happening with him. 'Now i see the reason why this guy has been avoiding this. What have i gotten myself into? How can i marry someone i know nothing about? I don't know his family or friends. All i know is his name and his brilliancy. Who knows if he is a threat and the most wanted criminal in his country. What again happen to his penis, i just hope it's not that he is impotent. God help me because i don't know who i will discuss this with. I have fought my parents to get this relationship happen and now, i am in a trouble. What do i do Lord?'
Ademi got all his mind to the oath and became more scared of what could happen next. 'If this can happen to me, that means every other thing will too. How do i come out of this that i have gotten myself into? Who will help me out of this mess i got myself into?'
Carolina came back home agile again and she was looking renewed and happy. Her parents were happy about this and were going to do anything to protect her emotional life this time. So their plan was to get her a responsible guy and in no time, they would get married. But will Carolina ever make this happen?
One fresh morning, Carolina got up suddenly and rushed down to the toilet to vomit. It was strange to her to have done that. It got more surprising when she kept going to do the same thing and she was always feeling dizzy and fatigued. In no time, her mom detected she was pregnant. "Mom how can i be pregnant. Something that i just finished my menstruation for this month last week. So how come? I don't think it's pregnancy'
The unbelievable happened when after the test in the hospital, Carolina was six weeks pregnant. "Who did this to you Carolina?" Her mom asked and she was impatient to get her reply but all Carolina did was cry.
She told her parents about what happened between her and Paul and in no time, she was back to her emotional imbalance. This time, it became worse and needed instant attention.
After about one or two days, Catherine came home with an handbill to show Ademi. She had been bothered about Ademi's inability to get horny and she was already picking up fights with him. In fact, it was a silent work between both of them until the day she brought the handbill. It was an invitation to a couple's gathering organized by a notable movie star in the country. Her love for the actor compelled her to make it up with Ademi so that she can attend
Coincidentally, Carolina's parents also planned to attend because they were specifically invited.
Days passed and the day came to limelight. Very early in the morning, Carolina's parent thought about their child and how she's been behaving recently. They were scared of what she could do at anytime. 'Darling, it will be better we take her along with us to today's party or we wouldn't go at all because it's risky for us to leave her alone in the house. 'Carolina's mother said this with so much seriousness that the next decision for them was whether to go or not. Will they go?
