SHINAAYOMI'S POV

"Haaah! What. Did. You. Just. Say?" Lade asked, it was as if my heart want to explode, its breathing rate increase rapidly, I want to say something but I couldn't, words failed me, all I did was to open and close my mouth, I totally forgot she's with us, I couldn't control myself when the doctor announced her pregnancy like how come? And she now knows about what I thought of keeping away from her forever even after I made promise that we are not going to keep secrets from each other, how am I going to explain myself? I looked at the doctor for help but he was looking down as well. God! I never prepared for this.

It all started when I was still in school, being that am handsome and my body did justice to my looks, I also keep beards and it complements my face as well, so many girls come for me and I give them what they want, what else do girls want if not sex and money? Back then I don't care about looks, I do what my body desires and pay them off, I love attentions especially when guys hails me, baba for the girls! King of babes! I just love the hyping and in reply I would say "just give them, as e dey hot! No dulling" grinning hard as if I won a bet. All this I kept from Omolade but Ayobamikale knew about it because sometimes he runs girls for me as well.

When we were preparing for our wedding, I went to see the doctor for test because I want to be clean before marriage, then he ran some tests on me that was when I got to know I had low sperm count, like me? I can have 4 girls a day! How possible is it that am infertile? The doctor explain some certain things to me that i only have oligospermia not erectile dysfunction, so it's possible for me to have erection yet only few sperm would come out after sex and they have a low motility rate, he told me it is curable, I will be on drugs till am fully cured.

Few weeks before our wedding, Lade's church said that we should run a test on HIV, genotype and others, I agreed to it but I brought her to my doctor, though we both pretend as if we don't know each other, that's how she knew the doctor then and the results were fine except for the sperm analysis we lied about.

I was on a project at work on a Monday when my phone rang, I checked my caller and it was my doctor, hope no problem, I asked myself subconsciously.

"My doctor! Good afternoon sir, how is work and family sir?"

"Fine o, your wife is here for a fertility test, are you aware?"

Fertility test? And she didn't tell me? Immediately I had sweat bullets, but I was able to utter "NO" to the doctor

"Okay... I just want you to know because the result would be out soon, and I asked her to come back on Friday" he replied.

"Please sir, just do anything, she must not know about me being infertile, I don't think I can face her when she got to know, please just tell her anything" I nervously said.

"Okay, that's no problem, what's my pay?"

"Any amount you want doc. so far am on a safer side.. okay.. later Sir" I ended the call.

On Monday that she went back to the hospital, the doctor told me he asked if she had an abortion before, though it was planned but Lade fell for it and he used the opportunity to tell her wrong result. So, Lade already had an abortion? So, Lade is wayward and she pretend to be reserved? How many men as had their way with her? All the comfortable life she lived in school claiming she is from a rich home, so it was her sugar daddies that provides for her? Wow! This and more were the thoughts in my mind.

I went straight to her office to confront her, but I heard her telling Ayo that she had six abortions, mogbe! (Am done for) Six! I felt weak down to my feet, so I got married to a whore?.

I left the office that day and went to a bar to had a drink, I just want to clear my head, why me? I have never in my life abort for a lady and here I am married to someone who has aborted six times, she did all this and couldn't tell me about it? What if she is unable to conceive truly? I left all my girls and trash my past just to be with her, why? Do I really deserves this?.

On getting home that night, the first thing she said to me was, "what happened, why are you drunk?" I felt like hitting her just to shut her up and that's exactly what I did, I slapped her hard and since then it became a habit, I found everything she do irritating but after we settled things I changed, i want to show her love back, I did and I'm enjoying my life again with her and now this? How possible it is when I know I can't father a child?

I heard a resounding slap but am feeling pain on my left cheek, how come? Lade lift her hand to slap me on my right cheek it was then I realized that she had slapped me earlier.

"Tell me what is happening here! How come you can't father a child! What is between you and the doctor!" She kept on asking from a question to another.

"I.. I... I can.. I can explain just calm down Lade, it is not what you think"

"It is how! That you and the doctor used me to cover up for yourself? That you both tried to play me like a game? That am living in pains because of what happened to you? That am married and pregnant and my husband is not responsible for my pregnancy?" She begins to cry.

She is pregnant, am not responsible, does that mean she cheated on me?

"Excuse me Mr and Mrs Williams, I have other patients to attend to, it would be better if you go home to settle it"

"Definitely! Only after I got you arrested, I will strip you off your tittle, you messed with the wrong person!" Lade said in rage, she stand up immediately and left not without banging the door, I just gave the doctor a pitiful look before I left his office. I met Lade in the car making calls, I beg on the doctors behalf yet she didn't listen to my plea.

DOCTOR POV

I'm ashamed of myself because I go against the etiquette of my profession, I forgot the oath I made before being a certified medical doctor and I forgot that Lade as the capability to put me behind the bars, I did it all because of money, will money save my face now? I was soliloquizing to myself when two police officer came in, one with pot belly and three vertical tribal mark on his cheeks while the other is slim, they are on police uniform blue shirt and black trouser with two star each on their shoulder, the one with tribal mark and pot belly spoke first.

"Dr jaiyesimi, you are under arrest for manipulating a patient test result which is against the doctors oath of allegiance, you are advice to remain silent for what ever you said will be used against you in the court of law" I watch the men standing before me and tear find their way down my cheeks, I ended my career shamefully, the other police officer handcuff my hands and they both lead me out of the hospital, receiving stares from patients and nurses and some where whispering to each other giving me scornful looks, a once honored doctor turned trash, I brought it upon myself, I look down shamefully till I was pushed in the police van.

Hmm.... God is merciful!
