I hyperventilated until my chest cramped, with my back against the cold, hard walls. The thing is, I wasn't just stuck between a rock and a hard place.. it was a hard place, my boyfriend of ten months and my best guy friend who just wanted answers. It was almost impossible for me to choose, history over chemistry or none at all. Who said you couldn't love two at the same time? The only event that could change this all and make this decision easier was a deal breaker. A secret so big that it would make it effortless to choose. "What do you mean she's pregnant?" I screamed at his flawless face. And at that moment, I knew who to choose but another part of me, vouched for him and not the other so I wanted to stay. Stay for all the good and stay even harder for the bad. There was no way out anymore. My nose barely above the water, almost drowning. Help. *** At the Marilyn Monroe Arts Institution in South Carolina, lets try to understand the shit our parents forgot to tell us about this little world we call, "senior year" .

Mpho and I have been together for eight years and married for six. We met in my third year of varsity.I was twenty one and he was twenty two. We became friends as he and my best friend's boyfriend, who is currently her husband, are best friends. I wasn't looking for a relationship. He just happened. I had broken up with my childhood boyfriend of seven years.(Yes! I said seven years but that's a story for another day) back to Mpho and I ,we built everything From scratch, the company he works for my provident fund helped him start it up with his best friend KG. I used to work as an Account at Investec Bank, I graduated with cum laudes, so I was headhunted, the world was my oyster. I wanted to go to New York and work in Wall Street for a few years then settle down. Mpho had different plans. He proposed marriage and told me nothing will change,silly naive me fell for that.I turned down New York because what kind of wife leaves her husband for a year unattended,who's going to cook for him ,clean for him and take care of his needs they said.Like I was some live in maid. Mxm!! He asked me to quit my job when business was doing well. We wanted to start a family and we were not getting lucky. He convinced me that it's my job thats giving me stress and if I was more relaxed we would probably conceive.That however was also not the case,we have spent over 800k on medical bills trying insemination and tests but we have not been lucky. My mother, as a prayer warrior, has taken me to church for prayers. Nothing happened.Other than Mpho's family giving me names and his mother disrespecting me and degrading me in front of other family members. My husband had failed to protect me or reparmend them. Instead now he has also joined in on the abuse.
