Depraved

Depraved

Are these married men okay at all?

Why won’t they just leave me alone?

In one breath, they expect me to be polite

In another breath, they would-be making passes at me

The first time a married man made a pass at me

I was just fifteen years old

I couldn’t even believe I could ever be the subject of such madness

My mother sent me to deliver food to their next-door neighbor

It was during the Christmas festivities

The man’s wife and children had travelled to the village

I:

I couldn’t even ever think he would have such a design on me

His first daughter was my age mate and friend

I took the food to his house and knocked on his door

He took some time to open the door

Usually, when you take food to the neighbours in our culture

The neighbor would give the bearer some money

Usually a small change for his or her trouble

He told me to come inside and drop the food on his dining

Then he brought out a wad of cash

Almost 5000

He didn’t say a word

He extended the money to me

My eyes popped out as soon as I saw so much money

I made to collect the money

He grabbed my wrist with his right hand

Twirled me around and bent me over his dining table

I was a bit confused for a minute

Until I felt his thing rubbing against my backside

I panicked!

I tried to scream

He used his left hand to cover my mouth

His right hand was still holding my wrist from behind

His thing was hard pressed against me

He started whispering in my ears

“Shhhh, don’t shout, I will give you all the money, don’t you want this five thousand?”

I shook my head

He used his thing and his waist to press me still against the table

He tried to remove his left hand

I knew he wanted to remove my panties

I screamed

He quickly covered my mouth again

We were at an impasse

His two hands were occupied with keeping me still

Though his thing was pressed against me

I had my clothes on intact!

He started whispering in my ears again

I didn’t want to hear anything

I was in full terror mode

I was just shaking my head

He rubbed himself against him until I felt his wetness all over me

He came right there and then

He released me, threw the money in my plate of food and angrily told me to ‘Get out”

I ran!

I couldn’t tell anybody what happened

But I avoided him and his entire family members like a plague after the incident

We left the rented apartment about a year later.

Since that time, I have been very weary of married men

I avoid them like a plague

One could be lulled into assuming they are harmless because they wear a ring

This is absolutely not true

For some of them the ring was actually a basis to cheat

The second time a married man came on to me

I was working as a mall attendant at the time

A man came in shopping for kitchen equipment for his wife

I assisted him to get what he wanted

I was patient with him because he was quite elderly

He was in his 60s

I was just 25

He tipped me moderately once he concluded his transactions

He insisted on taking me phone number

Told me it is possible he could help me get a better job

That very night he called her

He said he was travelling to another city

He missed his flight

He was lodged in a hotel somewhere

He called

Could I come and spend the night with him?

Aren’t you married? I asked him

He said “that is not a barrier, my dear”

How disgusting could someone be?

What does it mean to be married?

How could the marital vow matter so little to some people

To be honest it wasn’t as if I had never liked a married guy

I had fallen flatly in love with one once

I made her intention known

He told me he was married

I thought about it

Of course, it was wrong, but I couldn’t help herself

I told him I didn’t mind

He was too good for only one woman to “own”

He was kind, generous, intelligent, inspiring, sensitive and caring

He told me NO!

I couldn’t believe it!

So, there were men who could say No?

It made me respect him the more

It truthfully made her desire him the more

But I knew a second attempt could destroy their friendship

I watched her boundaries carefully

By this time, I was 27

I could count over thirty passes made to her by married men

There were single men too

I actually dated some of the single men

Two of the relationships ended because of the genotype issue

2018 Christmas I went to the village for the holidays

One evening, while I was seeing off visitors

I came across the MD of one of the companies I had worked with before during my industrial training days as an undergraduate

The man was elderly and always comported himself with dignity

He gave me a lift

His house in the village was about 10 minutes’ drive from my own house

He told me he would like to introduce me to his wife

He said they (He and his wife) often talk about me

I was ad-hoc secretary during my stay with his firm

I had spoken with the wife several times before on the phone but I never met her face to face

We went to his house

The look his wife gave me was highly disrespectful

I was dressed in a short gown and a pair of canvas

I hadn’t planned on meeting the man

I understood the look

I also accepted the look due to the way I was dressed

It was obvious the man was a womanizer

His wife’s reaction showed she had no trust in him

Within an hour the wife loosened up

His wife realized her husband and I had not been in contact for many years

She offered me some refreshments

We played scrabbles

The woman really treated me like a younger sister

When it was time for me to leave

The man told his wife to please drop me off and retired to his room

The wife gladly took me home

Three days later, the man called and jokingly asked me for my account no

I sent it

The man credited her account with 50,000

I knew immediately I saw the bank alert that the money wasn’t without strings

I waited for the man to call and state his terms

The man didn’t

I waited a whole week!

I didn’t hear from him so I felt I was just being paranoid

Perhaps the man just wanted to bless me as he said!

I started spending the money

Exactly a week later, the man sent me a text

“Meet me at So and So “Guest house”

I couldn’t believe it

How could the man be so unashamed?

I was the age mate of his second daughter

I was now a sort of “sister” to the man’s wife

What happened to faithfulness, honesty, decorum, trust and love

Why were some men always acting like people whose placentas were eaten by dogs?

I told the man I didn’t know the “Guest House”

The man told me he would send his driver

I ignored him

The man called me over and over again

I didn’t pick

After 30 minutes

Her phone rang

It was the man’s wife

I picked

The man’s wife said: Hello sweetheart, the driver is waiting for you at your gate. He will bring you to us at the guest house. Come and let us all have fun together!

I couldn’t believe my ears!

What did I just hear?

I stayed in my room throughout the night

A lot of things went through my mind

Was it that they had fetish designs for me?

Was the man and the wife only interested in sex?

A threesome?

Was it a test?

Early the next morning, I packed my bag and traveled back to the city

I couldn’t even wait a minute more in the village

PS: Depravity has taken over our world

We all see it and ignore it

Every generation came into our world innocent

We pollute them without remorse

We teach evil and encourage evil to thrive

Even some of us so-called “Christians”

We are lost in the miry clay of the world

In our quest to become “Woke”

We had awakened the forbidden

Jesus is still available for us all

No matter how far we might have gone in the wrong direction

One Look is all it will take

One call is all it will take

Look and Live

Call unto Jesus and be saved

Call Now!!!
