He proposed to me when he was going through a divorce. I liked him, but I wasn’t going to date him while he was still married. I told him to get the divorce before we could talk about us.

He had two children. It didn’t bother me much as long as he sorted it out with his wife. So we remained friends. It was very hard navigating that phase of our lives because we didn’t know what to do while waiting for his divorce.

We went out often. He took me to nice places for a weekend getaway. Maybe it was his way of breaking into my defenses, but I was resolute. The nights I spent with him, he was on the phone with his lawyer talking about the details of the divorce and what his wife wanted.

He’s a wealthy man and had built quite a lot of properties in his name. The reason the divorce was delayed was how to handle their properties. I listened while he talked to the lawyer. His mood would change from fun to anger. I would be the one to calm him down while he talked about how greedy his wife was.

“How could she ask for the only house I’ve built with my own money? Aren’t the cars I’ve given her enough?”

I asked him to calm down and deal with it while in the house. When he had calmed down, he would ask for sex. He would tell me he was going through a lot so I should be merciful to him. I would tell him, “Just get it done, and everything would be there waiting for you.”

Honestly, I would have given him more of myself if he wasn’t still living with his wife. I’d heard enough and seen enough to believe they had gone far with their divorce. I was convinced he was going through a lot, but he was still living with her, and it felt like doing evil with another woman’s husband.

One evening, I was out with him when he had a call from the lawyer. He was trying very hard not to be loud, but my ears were peeled. I heard “pregnancy,” and then I saw him beating his fist in the air with anguish in his voice. I was trying hard to connect the dots, but it was hard. When he finished the call, I asked him what the issue was, but he didn’t say much. I said, “Your wife is pregnant?”

He answered, “Hmmm, I don’t even know what to say. Yes, she’s pregnant.”

My silly self was thinking his wife was pregnant by another man, so I was about to say, “Then this makes the divorce easier,” but before the words could come out, he said, “It’s just once. She seduced me. She’s going to use it as a trump card, but it won’t work.”

I screamed, “Eiii, you’re the one responsible?” He answered, “It’s shocking, right? You should also take part of the blame. If you had given in to my advances, all this wouldn’t have happened. Now see.”

I left the scene quietly while I observed from afar. The divorce didn’t happen. They had the baby. I saw him in photos wearing a white matching outfit with his wife. When I congratulated him, he responded, “It’s all your fault.”
