PART 4(FINAL PART)

"...He called me the next morning to know how I was doing and by evening he came around and we chatted for almost an hour before he left.

He began to drop by every evening to say hello after his work and we gradually became friends. He would bring me food most times, he's a great cook and he's super intelligent.

We found out we had a lot in common, we talked comfortably about everything without judging each other. I finally opened up to him about everything I was going through.

He took me to a hospital for a whole body check up, introduced me to a therapist and paid for all my sessions.

It was during my therapy sessions that I realized I never healed from the trauma of both r.a.p.e and heartbreak.

I began attending lectures again even though I was very far behind. He became my accountability partner and made sure I covered all the lectures I missed. My life began to blossom again

After 3 months, we officially began dating and he told me we could be celibate if I wanted but I said no. He met my parents twice but they didn't know we were an item.

I got pregnant for him twice and a.bor.ted them even with the contraceptive measures we took. He wasn't financially stable for marriage yet and we were scared of my parents getting to know and how bad it will damage their reputation as clergies.

After the second pregnancy happened, we both decided to be celibate to avoid further occurance of pregnancy and the risk of loosing my life plus the torture and guilt we go through after the ab.or.tion.

We had an agreement to fast for 7hours everyday and not to ask God for anything else except for his forgiveness and mercy from then till whenever we have a confirmation that he has forgiven us.

We did it for 3 months and just 3 days to complete three months, he got a huge contract he has been expecting for over 8 months. We took it as a confirmation that God is now at peace with us and we stopped fasting.

He proposed to me three weeks after getting the contract and I accepted. I asked him what would happen if I'm not able to give him a child knowing the number of ab.or.tions I've had plus the fact that he is an only son.

He told me that we had the ab.or.tions together and should bear the consequences together if it comes. He reminded me that there are people who get married as virgins that still have childbearing issues and we can resolve to options of surrogacy or adoption if that becomes the case.

He just kept telling me that everything in him tells him that we are meant to be husband and wife and whatever happened will remain a secret between us, our doctor and God.

We got married and it's been 8years of happy marriage, we have 3 children now(2 boys and a girl) and I'm heavy with another.

My husband has not changed in anyway towards me, he has never given me a reason to doubt him or regret marrying him. He loves me more everyday, supports and stands by me all the time.

I don't know what would have become of me if he didn't come my way. Whenever I reminisce what I've been through up till this moment, I shed tears of Joy and I'm forever grateful to God for the gift of my husband"
