TODAY'S WOMAN ( a tale of Love)

By Eminimo Chantell

It was about 9. Pm already ,She had been driving for almost an hour, searching Udi Street ,the last passerby had said the street was just behind University of Uyo and now she was told this is Ikpa Road ,not Udi, feeling frustrated ,she parked by the University Annex, reversed into the space that preceded the Campus Main gate and made to negotiate left ,heading town .

Mr. Isreal had been calling endlessly for the past Minutes. In Akwa Ibom State, women had to ‘keep their marriages’, anyway, it wasn’t a marriage yet but still, a sister had to try. She had become tired and weak from constantly being blamed for her man’s seemingly, lack of control, he practically raised questions over every step of hers, these days , she couldn’t even sit around a few minutes after work hours to catch up with discussions and trends or socialize with other Ladies , maybe for the simple reason of appearing agreeable to colleagues, for in this profession called journalism, conversation can make a difference.

Absolutely, she knew it wasn’t right for her to constantly be a victim of her Mans insecurity but what can a woman do, just then, the phone rang again, she made to take the call but gave up, the traffic ahead was too intense , just now ,a keke rider leaned over towards her windscreen ,shouting while gesticulating obvious displeasure by spreading widely, his five fingers at her in a cursing manner, she pressed lightly on the brakes and offered him a full palm cursing too . It was already obvious, there will be trouble tonight, now this traffic refused to move, the phone continued to ring ceaselessly, she had become too much of a liar lately, she thought to herself , dear lord , let all these not be in vain , for outwardly , it didn’t look like it at all , it didn’t look anything like love .

Factually, the relationship took shape of a ‘Project’ that a lady must labor for , but for how long , all these ran through her Mind as she negotiated the roundabout , if she let go, what will happen , Christopher didn’t look like anything permanent could come out of him, speaking of Christopher, she will warn him never to call her anymore, for he brought more trouble than solace , she absolutely cannot be dating two men , rather a man and a boy at the same time , for Chris is way younger than Mr. Isreal is, and had just returned from Lagos to Uyo , what with all the craftiness , people asserted to Lagosians . She put the thought aside .Just ahead, the Keke Napep was a crowd , perhaps, she was close to Udi now , it was one of the descriptions he ordered ,she throttled on helplessly, and so Maria , 33, young, Intelligent , Charming and …….. To be continued
