SALOON GOSSIP
OME-OKACHIE'S MARRIAGE HITS ROCK
What majority face in their marriages are overtly or covertly what I can comfortably call organized distraction to them that desire to bend to what the is being dished out. The case of Ome-Okachie is not different from what many people are experiencing considering that Eve of Old testament gave listening ears to the snake and that was how eating of Apple (forbidden fruit) emanated
Ome-Okachie a known hustler got his fingers burnt due to the fact that his wife gave attention to constructed story cooked for her by busy bodies she met at Saloon. Ome-Okachie is a business man at Onitsha Main Market. He has made fortune from the business of buying and selling. Ome-Okachie, haven considered that marriage is the necessary responsibility, he saw Ngozi , a very beautiful hairy woman . Ome-Okachie proposed to her and both of them got married and Ome-Okachie was pampering her to the admiration of others .
Of course he has the money and was ready to provide everything the wife requested (remember na ihe eji eme nwanyi nma ka eji emegbu ya emegbu). One morning the wife ask Ome-Okachie to give her money for hair plaiting and that she also wants to cook soup which Ome-Okachie gave her enough money that will serve for the two purposes. In addition, Ome-Okachie told the wife to prepare so that he can drop her off to the saloon before proceeding to market.
Fast forward to the saloon , Ome-Okachie was off to market. As the hair plaiting was on, something fell off Ngozi's hand and she shouted "my husband Ome-Okachie come oo something has fallen" then came a question from one of the ladies in the saloon, please are you Ome-Okachie's wife? Ngozi answered yes. Then came gossip that threw the marriage in turmoil. "Chai ! So Ome-Okachie kept this beautiful lady at home and he is after all the ladies in the street? He opened Beer parlour for one woman up there and a saloon shop for another woman down there. He has about five girls he is paying their school fees"
Ome-Okachie's wife pocketed all these trash, became furious and said to herself, is between me and Ome-Okachie today, let him come back first. There is this man (Ubaka) that gives Ome-Okachie goods on Credit which Ome-Okachie will pays back after selling. Ubaka's container arrived that day and he tried reaching Ome-Okachie on phone but couldn't get across, so he pen down a note and gave to his sister to go and deliver the letter to Ome-Okachie's house to inform him that he should come and carry goods he will sale. On getting to Ome-Okachie's house , Nkiru knocked on the door and Ome-Okachie's wife responded "who is at my door" and the girl replied that her name is Nkiru , Ome-Okachie's wife ushered her in , asked her who she is looking for and the girl responded that she is looking for Ome-Okachie.
Osikapa relu oku oziokwum . Ome-Okachie's wife on hearing that she is looking for her husband, picked up her slippers and started slapping the girl, so you even came to my house to look for my husband after all I heard he is doing with you girls out there . The issue was on, Ome-Okachie arrived to his house to behold Nkiru crying and he inquired to know what is go on. Nkiru told Ome-Okachie that his brother Ubaka gave her letter to bring to you but on getting to your house , your wife started beating me. Ome-Okachie opened letter to read lo and behold what was written in the letter "Ome-Okachie come over to my shop to pick up goods you will sale". Ome-Okachie now took Nkiru and went off to Ubaka's shop to beg him concerning what his wife did to Nkiru but Ubaka concluded the whole matter by saying that he is done doing business with Ome-Okachie.
Ome-Okachie now went home and also concluded the marriage by telling Ngozi that the marriage has gotten to the end point of the road as she has destroyed the means of his livelihood and Ngozi started cry that saloon gossip has ruined her marriage
That's how Ngozi lost out with a man she is happily living with him and who is pampering her and providing every of her needs. People can do anything even lie to destroy your happiness and will turn back to laugh at you.
Always ask the person that is telling you negative about another person , what is his/her interest or benefit in what he/she is telling you?
