How you doing?... In Wendy Williams voice.
I have shamed myself.
This act/post probably goes against all common sense. Even against by my highly treasured code of ethics. Is it the fever of the new year? 'cos this isn't me. It is just not me. I just don't do this. I believe I have strong principles and self-control.
It's most likely the new year madness.
Look at me, dirty laundry on the internet... hella unFranni.
You know what makes it so horrible is that I haven't even broken this to the main character in the event.
Hmmm, so unFranni 'cos I'm as faithful and loyal as a dog... maybe I'm stepping out cos life is too short.
Feel free to pick up your jaw from the ground. But the one good you can do is rebroadcast this until it gets to my current's ears. I'm a coward and I aint got time for drama.
Unto the gist now...
It had been a 2-decade long relationship which ended (unexpectedly over a wicked 2-week stretch) sometime last year, about August or so... too much information abi?
Oh well, here goes... for roughly 20years, I've consumed groundnuts like everyday, non-stop!!! I mean!!! I nibble these brown nuts All Day E'eryday!!! Everyone who knows me know that those nuts are my essence.
We understood each other! Or so I thought. I nibbled those hard brown nuts all day long. Had it with ice cream, chocolate, cucumbers, rice, beans, soup, bread. you name it. We were in love.
Fast forward last year August, he prolly met someone else. He became violent.
Suddenly, he starts to bruise my face. ACNE! We go out on a date, I wake up the next morning all sore, swellings all over my face, occasionally on my neck, dark pock marks left like souveiners on my face. Yet, I couldn't resist him. I kept forcing my self on him for the next 2weeks. He kept beating me up and leaving me all sore by the dawn. Ooo, his love was wicked.
I was in such a funk. The mirror was my worst enemy. No more #IWokeUpLikeThis selfies.
It took the intervention if my mother, sister and brother to pull me out of that destructive relationship.
I quit on groundnuts. Oh lawd was it hard.
Four months down, (now in a new relationship with Blacksoap), I realize, you can't help whom you love. I'm going back...I have gone back.
We rekindled our love before the Christmas season. Guess what? I'ts sweeter than I knew.
So this year, no shame in it, I'm coming out...I'm back with Groundnuts. So far, he's faithful and no more domestic violence...for now.
I do wish us a happy Valentine.
Who throws away 2 decades like that? Love is scarce.
So spread the word until my face gets this gist... I'm back with groundnuts
Happy new year darlin's.
