Wrong number episode 42
Episode 42
The two families has reached a consensus and the wedding will be
happening in two months.
I and Daniel traveled had to New York to see his Parents. My Pastor
suggest we leave Sharon behind, so she won’t get to see people who will
trigger her old life. So I took her to my house. I was sure she’ll enjoy her
stay, my family members are very accomodating.
We spent two weeks in America, I was well received by his parents. His
Parent are simple and down to earth. They showered me with love like
they’ve known me all their lives. I was treated like a princess, like I was
the only daughter in-law in the world.
I realized how much they love and cherish Daniel. I guessed it was that
love that was transferred to me. All they are interested in is Daniel’s
happiness and they never doubted his choice.
Daniel took me to Los Angeles to see some of his cousins. He's cousins
told me they won't mind following Daniels footsteps. They want to come
to Nigeria to get a wife as well.
One of them even pleaded with me to help him get a wife material ready
before the wedding. Since they are coming to Nigeria for the wedding. I
told them I'm not good in match making.
Daniel took me out on sight seeing. From Freedom tower to central park,
Rockfeller center and Nyc park. I finally saw the statue of liberty live, I
only see it on tv. I had a lot of fun, I must confess.
I shopped for the wedding as he promised. He took me to two great
bridal stores in New York. Kleinfield and Lovely bridal shop .We bought
everything we needed for the wedding including our rings except for my
wedding gown. I have great fashion designers in Nigeria who will do
justice to that. We have to celebrate, appreciate and embrace the art and
talents that we have in our country.

I was alone in Daniel's home in New York, his parents are not around.
Daniel has gone out too, he said he wants to do one or two things
around.
I heard the door bell rang, so I went to get the door.
“Hello” I said as I opened the door.
Without asking her in, she brushed pass me and entered into the house.
She’s a tall beautiful lady with a chocolate glowing skin.
“I’m sorry ma’am, the occupants of this house are not in, and I don’t
know you. What’s your name, so I’ll tell them you called” I said
respectfully.
“So you are the Nigerian girl who stole my man right?” she said in an
American accent.
“I don’t steal people’s man, please ma’am who are you?”
She checked out the diamond ring on my ring finger and eyed it.
“I heard Nigerian girls are good at hypnotizing men, but you’ve messed
with the wrong person”
“Oh! Now I know who you are, his ex!” I said
The word “ex” I altered hitted her like a sledge hammer. She raised her
hand to slap me.
"Oh God! History must not repeat itself, Tunde’s girlfriend once slapped
me, it must not happen again" I said to myself.
So I quickly cover my cheeks with my two hands with my eyes closed.
Then I heard a voice from behind, I opened my eyes immediately.
This guy is my knight in shinning armor.
