I LOVED AND I WON

Ours was a love story that started like in the movies- first we were strangers, then we were lovers- felt like we couldn’t live a day apart from each other. She was just the perfect woman. Pretty, intelligent, respectful, very homely, teachable, dedicated to everything she sets out to do – the list goes on. And oh, that woman loves God. Like if I did  not know God myself and perhaps love him as much as she did, I would have been offended by how much she made everything about God. Her life, me, us, our relationship- everything was about God. Tasha was the type of woman, a Christian guy like me, could date only in my wildest of dreams. Yes that’s her name – Tasha. A name as sweet and lovely as she is. My Teddy-bear.💓💓💓

 RESPONSIBILITY

"Ijeoma, where is your phone?” he asked  sternly as he walked across the living room with all intent to slap my face. “Didn't, you see all my missed calls? Where is your phone my dear friend?” Dad asked again as he stared at me with his bloodshot eyes. Why were his eyes so red and where was his shirt for God sake? I thought to myself as I tried to distract myself from the impending slap.
