The Affair 2
Keep Your Boyfriend, but
Satisfy Me
"Aunty Constance oh, Hope
everything is okay between
you and Uncle Marvelous? I
noticed some glitch in your
communication yesterday."
Helen said
Both ladies were having
laundry together and had
chatted on so many other
issues prior to Helen's question.
While, Constance may be
Helen's aunt, she is just 9 years
older than Helen. And since
Helen's mum had been the
ward of Constance as her
younger sibling, Helen and
Constance had thus always
been fond of each other.
"Oh, yesterday? You mean
while He meant us in the
kitchen? Well, I don't know for
him ohh. Maybe he was
stressed out from work or
something. You know men can
sometimes think they are
doing ladies a favour because
they go to work. So they can
become Bossy and aggressive
some times. Nothing is wrong
anyway." Constance replied
"Well, I just hope so then"
Helen said gently.
Meanwhile, aunty ohh, you
haven't still thought of having
a child? Or is it not still time
yet? The last time, we spoke
about that on phone, you said
you both had an agreement
not to have children until your
third wedding anniversary. It's
over four years now oh" Helen
added
"Hahahahaha" Constance
laughed deeply.
"You will not kill me with
laughter you this girl. Of course
we had said that, but we are
not God that gives children. So
we would be patient still."
Constance added.
"Hmmm, alright then. Am sure
God would send the children
soon enough, because I need
to start carrying babies ohh. I
can’t just wait" Helen said and
smiled.
"If it's to carry baby, that’s not
a problem. What about Edwin,
your boyfriend. You both use
to be in love then. Tell him to
put the baby inside of you,
then you can carry one"
Constance teasingly said.
"Edwin? That one. I have told
him to stay on his own for now
jarre . All his head thinks of
these days is sex. I have told
him to go and have a rethink
of our relationship. I’m not
ready for sex at this point. Am
barely 23." Helen replied
"23 kor . Your mum was just
18 when she had you. Be
giving yourself hope there that
you are still young." Constance
said and laughed walking
away. She went to take her
bath.
“Aunty Constance” Helen called
out aloud.
“It’s like you kind of take so
much time bathing oh. Well,
am not surprised though.
When you were still with us
then, you could spend forty-
five minutes stretch to take
your bath. I use to wonder
what you were washing then.
Only just that now, it’s
probably up to an hour.” Helen
said and laughed.
“Well, its needful you know.
We use to stay longer then as
borders in secondary school.
Am sure you will come to
understand why soon”
Constance said with a rather
smiling face. As usual, they
both laughed it.
Later that evening when
Marvelous came back from
work, he walked up straight to
the kitchen where Helen was
and tickled her. In shock, the
glass dish in her hands fell off,
shattering with a loud sound.
Constance was busy with other
things inside. And as her
custom was, she was on ear
phone listening to Rihanna her
favourite musician.
Looking back, Helen discovered
it was her aunt’s husband. The
tickling further gave meaning
to the wink of yesterday. “It is
my uncle, why should I shout
or complain?” She thought.
Bending down to pick the
broken pieces of plates,
Marvelous bent with her. The
manner at which she bent
made her cleavages exposed.
Staring at the free movie,
Marvelous said “Your body is
just beautiful as your face.”
Helen quickly adjusted herself.
She kept quiet as she didn’t
know the appropriate response
to give. Then she got up and
continued with her dish.
Marvelous who refused to
leave continued, “you have
grown so big, am sure you
know that now too right?
Anybody would give up
whatever they have just to get
you.”
“Please sir, am so sorry, am not
interested. I have a boyfriend
already.” Helen sheepishly
replied.
“Oh, interested? You don’t have
to be my dear. You can keep
your boyfriend, all you have to
do is just satisfy me. You
understand what I mean”
Marvelous replied.
“My Aunt. What about my
aunt? I don’t want to scatter
her marriage sir. Just please
leave me alone or I will report
to her now”
Marvelous cackled softly and
said “You mean Constance?
Well, there are still too many
things about that aunt of yours
that you have not yet known.
Now, tell me. Where is your
aunt? How many responsible
wives would leave all their
kitchen duties to their niece
who came visiting uh? Hmm?
How many responsible wives
would not welcome their
husband after a hard day’s job?
Please spare me that threat
little dove. I may have to
encounter lot of problem to
having you, but your aunt is
definitely not one of them,
trust me.”
