After he went out l rushed to my bag to search for Tanya's number and was just hoping l still have it. The way l have treated Cayden he will definitely go to her she was beautiful and so calm and Cayden took 3 Years to finally accept to live without her. He told me everything about her and l knew all the love that was once shared.. Please God don't let him think about her...l remember before we were married he told me Tanya used to cook for him everyday and wash his clothes things my maid was doing for him in my ranch l have money that's for sure l made sure l had a cook only for cooking and a maid for all chores l did nothing and thinking about it l never did anything for him...l was never a fan of sex so l complained about being tired whenever he touched me....during my college years l went out with a guy who later raped me one day when l was drunk and from that day l hated sex and Cayden paid for that ...now if Tanya comes in the picture l was going to loose him....l reached for my bag and l found the note my private investigator gave me ..yes l hired a private investigator to search about this Tanya who my man cried for and the findings were too much she was just a wife material
I sat there thinking l took my phone and dialed my best friend who l only looked for when l was in trouble because she was always as busy as l was and of course my best friend. Sandy picked my phone and laughed before l even said any word and then said, why today what do you need Leslie she joked ..I need you sandy you are going to be my baby's God mother ....l said ....l heard the line dropped and l was so shocked maybe she was tired of me l thought and started crying the hormones were really playing tricks on me
Two hours later sandy arrived in my house l just could not stop smiling as she flung herself on me ..you know what babe l cancelled all my meetings and asked my driver to bring me here because you need me babe come here ...she said
Sandy was rich just like me but she had sense which l did not have ..even though she owned so much her husband was her priority ..she gave birth to 6 children who were just one year apart only because her husband wanted that. she cooked and washed for her husband alone after work something l discouraged her to do...l sank in her arms and told her about all my failures and that Cayden was about to leave ..l told her about the pregnancy and about Tanya she listened and she saw me crying something l never did before
Ok Leslie enough... l am here now let me tell you a secret you should know if a man is not sexually satisfied and is not eating his food in the houses he is not a happy man...satisfy him in these areas and you will win everything about him now first we need to fix your hormones you need to forget about the rape and be there in the bedroom for Cay he need to see you groaning and yearning for sex as well....secondly you need to learn how to cook l mean man do not like someone else cooking their food all year round, once in a while you should cook and above all be a prayerful wife honey allow God to preserve your marriage....Sandy finished talking and then she got up and took my wedding portrait look on this darling that guy is your first baby give him all he needs and Tanya will never be a threat....then my phone rang l picked it up and it was Tanya..... Hie my name is Tanya l just got your number from your secretary ..Cayden is going to come back to me because you took him from me first .just want you to walk away because l will not back out on this... she said...sandy saw my expression she took the phone and listened for a while and said ....can we meet.....
I looked at my friend with confusion she could see l was hurting and worse it was all my fault ..l allowed the devil to be part of my family by being a bad wife..Sandy what am l going to do l asked looking like a young girl..Sandy laughed ..wake up you are the one Cayden chose either you destroy your home or you start building now.. l looked at her obviously confused..look you are young beautiful and l will not talk about money because it added to your pride yes it did l will not lie to you money can never take a place of a wife ..So now you need to stand up for your own mistakes admit that you were wrong and never blame Cayden for this. You are going to solve this now bath wear your best casual be at your best let's meet the girl.I looked again at her about to refuse and then she said something l dreaded to hear....are you giving up now ..that was what l was thinking in my mind ..putting me and Tanya on one page for Cayden l know because of my behavior my man was going to dumb me...
No Darling let's go l told her and l was about to call my maid to put an out fit for me when Sandy stopped me and said...and this my darling also need to stop..learn to put out clothes for your husband as well never allow him to go out of the house while you are sleeping...Learn to do all you can as his wife and be there for him as a friend as well. if he becomes contented in all these then you have won his heart. She came closer to me and said...look carefully around you from today everything that needs doing for you and Cayden you will do... You need to start showing your husband that you are a capable woman not a spoiled brat ...my tears started falling l never knew anything how was l going to be his wife..all my life there were always people to wait just to help me.How was l going to be this typical African wife for my husband. l was now faced with something that l never thought l will have to think about. My business took almost all my time ..how was l going to balance all this..Thousands of questions without answers crowded my mind and l knew nothing of what was expected of me...In my culture a lady was taught by aunties on how to treat a husband but unfortunately l had no one else because my dad was the only existing in his family...he had other distant relations but we were not that close
I did not want to argue l dressed and went to meet Tanya...we found her at safari mall dresses very elegant and neat but well l could see she was intimidated with the way l was looking ...this was my weakness l loved to look good from my hair my face and clothes and l invested a lot in my body and Cayden loved that about me....l never showed my pain to anybody so it was not showing that l was hurting. ..Sandy started the conversation..... Young lady may l know the reason you called our house today ....Tanya was uncertain at first on how to answer but she then said l did that because l want Cayden back...we love each other and l know he is hurting and want a divorce.......sandy stood up and said l am not going to stop you from seeing him but l don't ever want you to call Leslie's phone ever again... let's do this fairly you do your best to win a married man and we will do our best to keep him let's see who wins...with that she held my hand and we started going
