BELINA
SEASON 2
Episode 1
__________
My wedding night was the
best night of my entire life,
one that I would never
forget even when I am 100
years old. It was terrific,
superb and altogether,
mind-blowing. Asides the
love, care and pampering,
Richard gave me a brand
new BMW car as his
wedding gift to me.
I had
never driven a car so
Richard made it his
responsibility to teach me.
I,
on the other hand gave
Richard a priceless gift
which cannot be purchased
with hard currencies. I had
been extremely scared and
nervous that night as I
changed into a small
lingerie dress in the
matrimonial bathroom.
Prisca had asked me to
purchase that blazing red
seductive lingerie for this
particular time and now
that I had it on, I was
scared to death. My hair
was let loose around my
shoulders and I summoned
enough courage to step out
of the bathroom. My breath
was taken away instantly as
I stared at what was before
me; the room was softly
lightened with red light
which transformed
everything in the room,
giving the room a highly
charged romantic
atmosphere. I felt shaky
instantly but the room was
not the reason; Richard sat
on the bed with his shirt
unbuttoned looking
breathtaking. It was always
almost impossible to resist
him, he is so masculine and
during our courtship, it
took a lot of self-control
from my end to keep us
from going overboard
especially when we were
alone. Looking at Richard
now with his muscle-filled
chest fully exposed to my
hungry eyes made my
fingers tingle and I could
not help but feel protected
with him around. I returned
from my reverie (illusion)
and noticed that he was
already on his feet and with
the way his eyes bore into
me, I instantly felt self
conscious. I remembered
my look even without
looking at myself and all I
wanted was to escape from
the room in order to
breathe properly. I started
picking my manicured
fingernails furiously;
something I do whenever I
am very nervous. Richard
must have noticed this cos
he slowly moved towards
me.
Every step he took
made me more nervous and
my eyes left my fingers to
my toes.
“You err, *coughs* you look
dishy”, Richard said
breathlessly.
I nodded, unable to say
anything at the moment. He
moved closer and raised my
chin; I was unable to meet
his eyes and he smiled
softly.
“I won’t do anything if you
don’t want me to, sweatheart”, he
said softly.
“It’s… it’s not that. It’s just, I cinderella wedding dress
am scared and nervous. I
don’t even know what to
do”, I said in a fainted voice
looking at his chest.
“Just be yourself honey, I
am fine with that”.
I looked into his eyes and
smiled shakily,
“I don’t even
know how to do that”.
He laughed a little, “why
don’t we both follow our
hearts? Right now, I just
want to devour you”, he
said teasingly and slowly
lowered his lips against
mine.
My heart beat accelerated
and in a few seconds, my
shyness was out of the
window and our instincts
took over. Everything after
then was magical and
exquisite but what I would
never forget was the look in
his eyes when he severed
the barrier guarding my
purity. It was a look of
extreme surprise, adoration
and respect. He had asked
me twice during our
courtship but I had
changed the subject both
times because I wanted it
to be a surprise and my gift
to him. With the look in his
eyes, I felt on top of the
world and I thanked the
Lord in my heart for helping
me hold on till this time.

**********
It is our second year
anniversary and our palace-
like sitting room is filled
with people ranging from
parents, siblings, colleagues,
friends and so on. It had
been a splendid two years
journey and I was so
greatful to God for the man
I married. I married my
husband. Love truly is
something everyone should
have because there is no
happiness that can rival the
one you feel when
someone loves you with all
his heart and you love him
in return.
I moved from one person to
another, welcoming them in
my exquisite gown. My
parents, Richard’s dad, Tony
and Prisca, Prisca’s brothers
who were also my step
brothers, Mr Badmus and
family; and a host of others
were present. I felt so loved
and honored to have all of
them with me.
Best Results Hospital (BRH)
had now risen from being
the best in Lagos state to
being the best in Nigeria. Its
branches now spread
across the entire country
maintaining its
headquarters in Lagos.
Tony decided to stand on
his own two months after
our wedding after much
planning and his own
hospital is now making
waves. Due to the fame and
connectivity of my husband
including of course my
exemplary work in BRH as
the great psychologist, I
was now a regular face in
the papers, blogs, TV
programmes and what
have you. A separate
building has been devoted
to handle Psychological
cases due to expansion and
regular demands for my
attention. I loved it because
I did not really fancy
working together with my
husband in the same
building – we would be
doing more personal stuff
at work… lolzz.
One thing seems to be the
problem though…
“Pat, stop it …… Pat …….”
Prisca said as she moved
quickly to grab the
breakable furniture with
her one year old daughter.
The one year and three
months old Patricia is the
exact replica of a doll.
She
has excess beauty thanks to
her parents, and just like
her mother, she has hair as
black as midnight. She is
very lively and energetic
that you miss her when she
is not around.
Prisca replaced the
furniture and carried Pat
the way only a mother can. I
could not contain my envy.
Though two years is
nothing compared to the
stories I hear from people, I
still feel like I have spent a
whooping ten years
without a child. Bloggers
did not miss this emblem
thus the numerous rumors
and gossips.
I threw away my blind
jealousy and took Patricia
from Prisca, she is just so
adorable. By carrying her, I
have a feeling that my child
is on the way. Richard
noticed my mood-swing
and came to hold me
affectionately.Everyone
started ranting about the
display of love not noticing
my mood. Just when the
party was about to begin,
the door creaked open and
before me stood a stunning
woman who should be in
her mid-fifties. Everyone
turned towards her and
Richards mood took a
downturn.
“What are you doing here?”
he yelled.
