The Twin Pregnancy Episode 15

Nene has decided she was not going to get married to any man. She decided she would be better off living as a single mother and taking good care of her children. Nene thought since she has money and everything she needs, there would be no need to entangle herself with a man who she would be calling her husband and who she must obey faithfully. In her mind, she was not sure if all men were the same as Roland or if some of them were different and good.

"I don't want to be anyone's wife. I don't want to be under any man who would be commanding me like a slave and even wake up one day and abandon me the same way Roland abandoned me when I got pregnant for him. I don't want to be in that helpless situation again where I will be running around trying to take care of myself and my babies when those I trusted have betrayed my trust. I want to be left alone and unmarried." Nene said to herself one evening she was resting in her room.

"I don't even think I'm going to give birth again.

The four children I have are enough. If I get married now, the man would want me to get pregnant and carry his own babies for him. This will make me end up having multiple children to take care of and not having time to enjoy life. Being a mother of multiple children is a lot. Taking care of children wears me out a lot and I think the stress given to me by the four children I have is already enough. It is certain that if I marry Fredo, he would want his own children from me. I don't think I'm ready to bear more children in addition to the four I have." Nene thought in her mind.

However, when she told her mother about her intention not to get married, the old woman was very worried. Her mother confronted her and made it clear that not getting married and remaining single was not a good thing. She insisted that Nene should accept the proposal from Fredo and marry him.

"Every woman, no matter how rich needs a man by her side. You need a man to protect you and your children. The world is cruel to women who don't have men standing by them. If you accept to marry him, you will stand a better chance of being happy than staying single. It is not in our culture to remain unmarried, no matter how strong or rich you are. You need to get married because it earns you societal respect." Nene's mother tells her, but the young woman was still adamant.

"I don't want societal respect. You said I need a man to stand by me, but Roland did not stand by me when I needed him to support me and my pregnancy. How am sure Fredo would not behave the same way? Is there a guarantee that all men are not the same? I don't want to suffer any of the things I suffered in the hands of Roland if I accept to marry Fredo." Nene said to her mother.

"My daughter all men are not the same. There are good men out there and I'm sure Fredo is one of them. He is nothing like Roland. He has supported you since you gave birth and shown you that his intentions are good. I'm sure he is a good man and I advise you to accept him. You need a man in your life. Trust me, you will be happier if you have a husband who loves and cherishes you every day." Nene's mother said with worry written all over her face.

"I don't think I need a man to be happy. Who says a man can make a woman happy? Roland was not able to make me happy, how can Fredo strong or rich you are. You need to get married because it earns you societal respect." Nene's mother tells her, but the young woman was still adamant.

"I don't think I need a man to be happy. Who says a man can make a woman happy? Roland was not able to make me happy, how can Fredo make me happy? Is it money? I already worked hard and made my own money. If I'm able to work hard and take care of myself and my children, then why do I need a man to take care of us? I don't need any man who would come and dominate my life and make me reliant on him. I don't want to rely on any man for protection or for feeding. I want to feed myself and my children by myself through hard and honest work." Nene tells her mother point blank.

"But you still need a man. Culturally, a woman is not supposed to be alone. God made it that a woman should get married. You should not have to be alone. You need a man to love you. Even if you have made your own money, the presence of a man in your life earns you more respect. You need a man, trust me. I'm your mother and I cannot mislead you into a ditch. Accept Fredo's proposal not because you need his money but because you need a man in your life." Nene's mother said.

"Alright mum. I will do this just to make you happy. As for me, if he is a good man, I will be happy, if he is not, I will kick him out of my life and become single again. I'm going into this marriage with an open mind, not expecting too much. I will not be heartbroken if Fredo turns out to be like Roland. I will just accept it and leave. I'm never giving any man the chance to ride over my head again." Nene said.

Later that evening when Fredo came to visit Nene, she finally accepted to marry him. Fredo came with a ring and he knelt down and gave it to Nene with so much respect. She was happy. Days later, a wedding date was fixed and the news went viral that Nene was getting married to the president's son. Roland heard about it and got prepared for his final revenge.

"I will not allow this wedding to take place. It will be a shame on me if Nene gets the chance to marry the son of the president. I will do everything possible to make sure the wedding will not take place." Roland said to himself.

Nene's aunt also heard about the wedding and she was not happy.

"If this girl ends up getting married to the son of the president, it would be shame on me. I will not allow this to happen. The wedding will not take place. She said to herself.
