《NGỌZI ( Blessing)》Chapter Seven.
Advertisement
Disgust, frustrate, sicken.
Its been over seven years of marriage with Gozie and we still had no children to show for it.
My inability to bear forth children of my own reduced me to a laughing stock, i could not be in a public gathering without people mocking and making gestures of me.
I was known and referred to as the woman who produces money instead of children, a lot of people referred to me as only good in making money and not children.
Making an appearance in the assembly of other women was a torment, either i am been mimicked, or they were jeering. In fact my presence at any female gathering was greeted with derision.
Gozie did not seem to be bothered about what people had to say about me, rather he took advantage of the situation to continue with his dirty affairs with women.
There were days i just could not endure it anymore and the thoughts of ending the marriage just as my father had advised me crowded my mind.
But i did not want Gozie to have the victory, within me i was convinced that my inability to have children had something to do with Gozie's infidelity, so i began to sought for help from close friends.
The first step i took to finding solutions to my predicament was seeking for God and getting to know him.
I started praying more to God, attending prayer crusades and i equally switched worshiping in a Catholic Church to a spiritual white garment church for a better solution to my predicament through revelations and prophecies.
My first month of worshiping in the white garment church was filled with a-lot of prophecies and assignments, all of which i listened and carried out passionately.
It was not long enough that i started attending

spiritual church and carrying out the different assignments based on revelations and prophecies, that heavens stretched fort its merciful hands on me.
One day at my salon this customer turned friend of mine who always encouraged me never to loose faith in God suggested a gynecologist to me, according to her he is listed among the best top five gynecologist in town and has helped a lot of women with child birth issues.
His of a France origin and was only related to Cameroon by his grandmother who was a Cameroonian and goes by the name Mr Richard Sebastian.
She gave me his address and phone number and told me to call him beforehand to book an appointment with him as he is a very busy man and i agreed.
I proceeded to dial his number and introduced myself to him as well as my reasons for calling and with the help of my referral i was able to book an appointment with him.
A day later i visited this gynecologist and explained to him my reasons for the consultation, but he requested that i and Gozie should run some medical tests to know where the problem is from.
I went home and informed Gozie about it and he agreed after so much contretemps, we both went to the hospital together for the tests and returned home afterwards to await for the results.
Three days later i got a call from the gynecologist saying that our test results were out and that i should come over to the hospital.
I took a quick bath, called my employees and assigned them to take of care of some important customers i was supposed to attend to that morning.
I arrived at the hospital and headed straight towards the gynecologist office as he was already on sitting awaiting for me.

Knock! Knock! Knock!
"Come in"
Good morning Mr Richard.
"Good morning Mrs Stella Ngọzi
Please have a seat", he offered.
Thanks Sir.
"You did not come with your husband?" He asked looking curious.
No Sir, he had urgent works. I replied.
"Really!"He exclaimed with so much intrigue.
What could be more important for a man
"who has not been able to have kids for seven years?" He added
Well, Sir am here now.
Do you mind telling me what the test results says?
I asked with an unsettled tone.
"Well we're both about to find out, so shall we?"
Yes! i replied hastily.
He proceeded to open the white envelope
containing our results and was reading it rather soundlessly.
Is everything okay Mr Richard? i asked.
While waiting for a reply to my question with bated
breathe.
He took what seemed to me like forever to raise his head nor even say a word to me.
After a long silence from him he then raised his head dropped the pink sheet of paper he pulled out from the white envelope, took off his glasses and gave me a rather pitiful look.
"Madam where did you say your husband went to?
He asked angrily.
Phone your husband and tell him his presence is needed here urgently". He added.
Sir is there a problem? Please!
I asked again.
A question he did not entertain and insisted on Gozie presence before he would read out the test results.
I phoned Gozie and told him the gynecologist requested for his presence before he could reveal the test results.
A phone call which almost lead to a quarrel between Gozie and i because he claimed he had stated earlier that he would not be available.
He later agreed to come after i passed the phone to the gynecologist to speak to him.
Few minutes later Gozie joined me in the gynecologist office.
While Gozie sat close to me waiting to hear the results, Mr Richard suddenly had this queer and un-amiable attitude towards him.
Instead of reading the results out to us he rather looked at Gozie angrily and said...
" How could you Mr Gozie?
How could you be this wicked and mean?"
I was shocked at the same time confused.
Now i was even more eager to hear what the test results said as i sat at the edge of my seat.
Mr Richard continued.....
"You knew you had deadly sexually transmitted infections and you did not bother to treat yourself nor even tell your wife about it"
How could you be this wicked!
"You are the reason why your wife has not able to have children, you could have treated yourself but you did not rather you infected your wife and that almost damaged her womb." An enraged mr Richard screamed.
On hearing this i almost swoon.
Gozie what have i done to you to deserve all this? I cried out.
All these years you knew you were the problem of our childlessness and you allowed your family point fingers at me..,how could you?
I hate you with everything in me! I screamed so loud that Mr Richard had to hold me down to my seat.
Gozie sat down still speechless and a bit remorseful.
Mr Richard went ahead to counsel Gozie on the dangers of having numerous sexual partners and as well as unprotected sex.
He also prescribed some drugs to Gozie and i and drew an appointment times-table as well.
He further warned Gozie never to repeat such again as the consequences might not be this minor.
