Continuation: Everything was going well as planned , until the wedding day I got a surprise of my life. The very day we had planned to have our secret wedding, everyone invited are on ground. As I matched into the small hall my husband everyone was there, lo and behold Chinedu from nowhere. I thought my eyes was deceiving me when i saw him, he walked straight with my two kids to where I and Fredrick was seated. He didn't even look at my face, he just said "here are your kids take full custody I want to be sending my own support". Fredrick turned and stood up stirring straight at my face in disbelief and confusion. I didn't know if I was to stand or remain seated as everything I thought I had hid was displaying. Chinedu left my kids right in front of me and went his way. My children didn't follow their father they drew nearer to me and held my gown as though they were told to do so. Fredrick went straight outside without uttering a word. I rushed to meet him outside and there was where he told me to forget about him that we never met and can never have anything to do with each other anymore. Everyone in the hall trooped outside . everything was like a movie. My parents tried to calm Fredrick, I rushed back inside tried to explain to the man of God. The pastor blamed me for everything that happened. He called everyone that was remaining outside to come inside, as they came inside the pastor announced that he doesn't have a hand in whatever that has happened here now. Pastor asked me to go and settle whatever I have with Chinedu , fix everything that needs to be fixed then pray and know my next step. Fredrick told me never to come close to him again. That's how I entered into depression for a long time. Fredrick blocked every means of communication I have with him. Chinedu sent me a text message saying "Do you think I won't know?". I didn't reply him because I already knew it was him. I regretted keeping it a secret to Fredrick all along, I thought he'd not want me or accept to marry if I told him. I begged my parents to please return the bride price chinedu paid on my head to their village head since he has refused to come and collect it. My mom advised me never to bring any man home without telling him about my first marriage with Chinedu. My parents returned the bride price to their Chinedu King's palace. I left my kids with my parents and went back to the city. I messaged Chinedu and told him to be sending his support to my parents, or if he can't he should go and take the kids that I'll be sending my support. Chinedu refused to go and take the kids, he asked me to stay with them that he's too busy to start looking after children. A year plus after I lost Fredrick, I met another one the very best of them all whom I told him everything about me and he accepted to marry me, even asked me to go bring my children to leave with us after our wedding. Before my wedding I returned Fredrick's bride price so that I can move on. Today I'm with my children even though their father is sending support but I'm grateful I get to be happy as a married woman. my husband, whom God used to wipe my tears after everything is treating me like a Queen. Fredrick loved me so much but my husband loves me more. I'm grateful for the peace I enjoy everyday.
I shared my story for you to learn from me. be transparent, who'll love you will love you regardless. Who'll accept you will not mind anything. You're bringing judgement upon yourself by hiding what's not supposed to be hidden, because you'll be judged and be blamed.
The end of this story.
