STAND ALONE NARRATIVE
  DICEY SITUATION.  

I will go straight to the point. I am a family man with two kids; a boy and a girl. While I may not be wealthy, I can say we are comfortable. I have been married for 7 years now, Like all marriages, we have had our up and downs. Tempers flare up occasionally and on a number of times, neighbors have had to intervene.

On one of those neighborly interventions, I had poured out my heart to one of them. She lives in the compound adjacent to us and has made great effort to be close to my family. I initially had doubts about her based on what I had heard and still do to an extent. But I gave her the benefit of the doubt and didn’t think anything about her closeness to my family.

She on occasion, counsels my wife and gives her tips on how to ensure a smooth running home. I felt she was harmless enough not until she dropped a bombshell on me last April. I will come back to this.

First let me give a short background of this neighbor. She is a medical doctor working in a state somewhere up northern Nigeria. I live in the suburbs of Abuja so I don’t know what arrangement makes it possible that she is seemingly always around. She is a consultant so that may explain it. She is wealthy by every definition of the word. Not that I care. She is separated from her husband(9 years), childless(she has anovulation and her ovaries do not release eggs) and she is beautiful. But these are all by the point.

Now, about the April bombshell. 

Last April, after calling me aside to settle another issue I had with my wife, as I was about leaving where we met (a shop close to my house), she burst into tears. I was taken aback and asked her why she was crying. 

She simply waived me away and left. I did not think much of it until she sent me a message around 11pm one Tuesday night. Her request was I come see her at home the next day. I was not still in speaking terms with my wife so I did not tell her.
I went to the doctors house the next day. She served me tea and eggs. We had light talk with she mostly doing the talking. That’s when she dropped the bombshell. She needed me to be the sperm donor for an IVF session she planned to undertake. I practically choked on the eggs I was eating when I heard that. I looked up and she was kneeling down with tears in her eyes. She was not joking.

I asked her why me? And that’s when I heard the dumbest statement I have ever heard in my life. She said I am tall, dark and good looking and she will want me to be the sperm donor for an IVF session. 

She would want her son(she was explicit on that) to carry these traits. I thought I was being set up by my wife and the doctor. I got up and angrily walked out of her house. I was going to rain hell on my wife for pulling what I thought was a very expensive stunt. This consultant ran after me and was pleading with a muted voice. I ignored her and kept walking towards her gate. That’s when she fell on her knees and grabbed my feet. In my anger, I was dragging her along even as she held unto my leg. This lady is quite chubby so I couldn’t really go far.

 She was pleading that I don’t tell my wife a thing. I didn’t want her neighbors to see us so I told her I will think about it and she released me.

I didn’t respond to her until she sent me a text message last December telling me how she really needs a child before she is 55. She was offering 5 million. I replied her back and warned her not to mention the issue of money again. That’s when she sent me the screenshot of a chat I had with a lady down the street. I was asking the lady out. I didn’t know that lady was her housekeeper. She threatened to forward the chat to my wife if I don’t play game. Even though I never slept with the house keeper(yes we kissed at one point), the doctor is saying I did and she will let my wife know.

My concern is now is that I and my wife have decided to work on our marriage. I know she will not forgive me for even thinking of scoping another woman. The delima I face as well is this, I love children. If I go ahead with the IVF session with the doctor and it is successful, I will definitely want to be in the childs life. The doctor does not want that. My wife of course will not hear of such a thing.

I cannot afford to call the doctor’s bluff and I cannot bear to face my wife when she finds out I ran around on her with a lady down the street. My wife will walk out of the home. The doctor has sworn to keep it secret that I donated sperm for her. But how will I be just watching and a child I know is mine lives a life away from me?
The doctor has given me a deadline of the 13th of February to make myself available. For once in my life, I am at a loss on what to do.

Oga please your drama is much......You were all Angel Michael-ly until i did a double take reading that you were toasting someone,would you not have deposited free sp#erm inside the lady if it had gone further?

There you are Judging Madam consultant...Please surrender the sperm and collect the money as proof to show your wife later that it was a business deal.....As for wanting to be in the boys life, nobody send you message, face the kids in front of you abeg...Do you know how many of your kids may be roaming out there that you dont of? Please stop acting goody two shoes and help someone achieve her dream of motherhood..... mscheeew!!!
