My dad refused me from getting married to any man I brought home. I would get fraustrated most times but no matter how much I screamed and asked him why, he will just smile and walk away.
I was furious because I'm now 27 and ever since I was 22, that was when I started bringing suitors to my dad.
Every time he sees a man come home with me he will be like, "Sorry son you are not fit to be my daughter's husband" and then he will walk away.
Every man he told this will immediately break up with me. From Crist my first fiance, I have brought about 9 suitors but my dad seemed not to like any of them.
Now am 27 and am scared of remaining single forever. Luckily I met Richard a wealthy man of 35. We only dated for 6months before he proposed.
Before his proposal Richard has always wanted to walk me home and say 'hello ' to my dad but because I was scared of what my dad would say so I always postponed.
It's been two weeks after his proposal and Richard took me to their home for official and proper introduction of me as his wife to be.
I was warmly welcomed and they made me feel like a diamond. I couldn't hold back my tears as I felt the love my dad never gave to any of my suitors.
Richard seeing me shedding tears with a bright smile, laughed including his family members, they all thought it was tears of joy not knowing it was tears of guilt.
After the visit to Richards family, one afternoon in my office, Richard walked in and sat opposite me on the visitors chair.
"Precious stone, Richard flirted with me. I was thinking of meeting with you and your dad on Saturday to find out how much a gem as big as you is worth." Richard flirted with a stylish smile on his face.
Immediately I felt a heavy heart beat. It was as if I was pushed out of a moving train, I became lost in thoughts and was awakened by the voice of my prince charming.
"Babe! Is everything okay, what is it?" Richard asked looking a bit worried.
I lost my words as I didn't know the exact reply to give him. I knew I couldn't say no so I noded in support of him coming.
After work that evening I returned and told my dad that my husband to be was coming on Saturday. I wanted to show him Richards photos when he shaded my hand away and said.
"Don't bother to show me, he is not marrying you period! "
I got furious to the highest point and asked him his reasons. He looked at me for a while before saying,
"I already have a husband for you, that's why." then he walked away.
EPISODE 2
"I already have a husband for you, that's why." then he walked away.
******************
I was under pressure as I couldn't even tell if my dad was in his right senses. I mean how could he expect me to wait for someone I don't know for marriage.
I didn't know what to do, I only just gave up and concluded that I was secretly going to marry Richard if my dad doesn't approve of the marriage.
So finally the Saturday was here. I woke early and prepared some delicacies, whilst waiting for my husband to be, to come with his kins men.
When Richard came with his kins men, I was at the parlour, so I went to call my dad to attend to them. Upon seeing them my dad chased them out, angrily Richard's kins men left immediately.
As Richard walked out I followed him. I kept pleading with him not to break up with me, And he didn't. Richard only told me that he thinks my dad has eyes on me and I should be careful while we find other ways out.
Whilst I returned to the house I overheard my father on a call "I don't know why she refused to see that I love her and must have her as my wife. Over my dead body will I allow another man to marry my daughter except me".
I was shocked as I overheard and recorded him on the call. While recording, my dad caught me and furiously he pounced on me and began to rip my clothes apart .
I screamed as Loud as I could and suddenly the door sprang opened, revealing Richard rushing into my rescue.
On the process of trying to push my dad away from me Richard got stabbed by my dad. That was when I picked up the parlour vase and broke it on his head.
We called the police and they came to our rescue. Not quite long after the arrival of the police my dad woke up.
Seeking for a means to escape my dad reached out to one of the police gun but unlucky for him another police man noticed his move and shot him dead.
Richard was treated and he later sponsored my dad's burial and we proceed to our wedding two weeks after my dad's burial.
The End
