True Life Story; He Is Married But l Still Love Him
Hello Lively Stones,
I’ve been a fan of this amazing blog for a while now. And that’s the more reason why l decided to share my story here, and seek for advice from my elders because I think I’m still too young to go through this shit alone. I mean, I’m just twenty-two and l’m being forced to make monumental decisions that even an Aristotle would find difficult.
How was l to know that falling in Love with an older man could cause so much pain?
My name is Angel. That name was given to me by my mother who mistook me for that feathered specie when l was born. The name suits me fine though. I am very tall, almost six feet and exquisitely shaped. My face is beautiful. I am not being vain, l am just stating a simple fact.

I have always been happy and content with my world. Growing up the way l did with beautiful parents, good schools and plenty of money, it is not difficult to understand why l have been so happy growing up.
My father made his money out of the dint of hard work. He was a senior naval officer, before his retirement. I am the eldest of four kids. My two younger brothers have always been fun to have around. We play, we laugh and we shared the joys of childhood and all the pains of growing up.
Our primary school was just by the corner of the house, and you know what? My mother was the headmistress.
That is one of the best blessings you can have as a child. Going to school was fun because nobody could touch you in that school. Nobody could mess with you. All you had to do was just to run up to the headmistress’ office, make sure you had plenty of crocodile tears in your eyes and your oppressor would be oppressed.
Being the child of an high ranking naval officer is a very privileged position. You had a lot of young officers around the house whose only duty was to do your parent’s biddings.
And that was how l met Ahmed. Ahmed, that young dashing officer whose duty was to take me to school. I was just in primary school then, but l liked him from the very first day. I didn’t yet know what Love meant, but l really liked this big uncle in his well starched and ironed uniform, who took me to school and bought sweets and ice-creams for me. And Ahmed was really dashing, he had the face and tall stature of an Arab. I even thought he wasn’t Nigerian when l was first met him, until l later learnt that he was Fulani.
My parents were very strict but loving. My younger sister, precious, was still too young to really be my friend, but she loved me all the same and could always be found loitering in my room and generally making a nuisance of herself. My life was blissful. I grew up fast and before long l had entered the University.
I got admitted into Unilag at the age of eighteen. At school, l had my usual share of boyfriends. I have dated three guys since l entered the University, but they were ordinary schoolboy/schoolgirl relationships that didn’t really mean anything to me. I simply loved the amazing feeling of having handsome guys running after me; after all l was beautiful and rich.
I enjoyed everything l did with those guys. And l believed that my parents were carefully monitoring me. All parents want their children to grow up normally and experience the joys and pains of courtship. I believe that my parents were no exception. They wanted the very best for me. They always urged me to keep my eyes open and look carefully before taking any major leap or decision in life, concerning my relationships.

My father is a complete gentleman. His military background also helped in molding him into a disciplined well cultured gentleman. I think of him with a lot of respect. And l believe that deep down l had always wanted my future husband to be just like him.
Meanwhile, My young officer chap, Ahmed had since left the employ of my father. I just came home from school one day while l was in junior secondary, and he was nowhere to be found. I later learnt from my mom that dad has used his connections to secure a promotion for Ahmed, and that he has been posted to the naval headquarters. I surely did missed him then, but life went on, and l had to move on with my life.
Then almost eight years later, l ran into Ahmed again, while l was in my third year in the university.
And everything changed!
