"Cletus I loved you even when you were poor that's why I fought to be with you against every one, against all odds__but our daughters life was at stake and your boss was not going to help me until I slept with him. I begged him, I knelt down and cried to him but he turned a deaf ear to my plea."

"When the Doctor threatened that if we didn't pay the bills he was going to kick Ezinne out of the hospital without performing the operation I had no other choice but to give in. You had no money on you then and no bank was going to give you a loan without collateral or have you forgotten?"

"Remember that I tried every available means to raise the money but they all turned futile. I begged and cried, all I didn't do was steal or sleep around. I remained faithful to you and our vows and because of that vow, the promise I made to you, I couldn't even go back to my parents."

"But when I saw that I could not raise the money before the day of the heart operation on Ezinne I had to give in to your boss's demands you know that I had no other choice, my Ezinne's life was at stake."

"I am you wife not your slave Cletus. Please stop all these things you do, you are killing me slowly, please. Let's just let go of the past and live happily I beg of you. We have sacrificed weigh too much just to be together. Let's not throw it all away

"We are still young and we still have a lot of years and enough time by God's grace. Lets start all over again and make things right as partners. We are husband and wife not slave and master. Please go back to the Cletus I loved and married. This is not the Cletus I loved and married."

"This man here is not who you really are. You were kind, loyal and loving when you didn't have much why not remain the same now. You know that my love is real, I was with you and I fought by your side when you had nothing so now that you have something why not treat me right. "

"At least let me enjoy a little the fruit of my suffering please stop doing this to me. Stop ruining our marriage. Please I love you Cletus I belong to you and no other, you are my husband and my life. Even if for now you feel that you don't love me anymore I promise to do anything you want me to in other to make you love me, again just give me another chance."

"You own me and you know that. Please allow God to touch your heart so that you can change, please ." I sobbed while I held on tightly to my baggy shirt. My heart was starting to ache from all the tears.

I hoped that my kind words would get to his heart but I should have known better. His heart was now as strong as a rock.
