???? A Daughter’s Revenge EPISODE SIXTY THREE:
PREVIOUSLY ON A DAUGHTER’S REVENGE:
…KC lost it. As he couldn’t hold it anylonger. He landed a dirty slap on her. In return, Martha grabbed him and started dragging him. As if that was not enough, she planted her teeth against KC’s flesh and was grinding his flesh like a meat as if she was a vampire.
To ease himself from the pain, KC angrily pushed Martha off him.
Martha landed to the ground with full force. Unfortunately, she landed with her stomach.
Bleeding!
Kelechi had to rush her to the hospital that night.
THE CONTINUATION:
Martha was brought to the hospital almost lifeless.
In the end, Marha survived it. But she lost the pregnancy.
The mîscàrrîage came with a lot of severe complications.
As such, she had to spend more than a week in the hospital before she was finally discharged.
Meanwhile, Martha had left KC’s house back to her house.
Martha had been in a severe mourning. She doesn’t eat. As tears had become her food. She doesn’t sleep, even at night. As tears had become her sleep.
‘I have destroyed my life. I have ended my future. Now I have nothing to live for again in this world. What have I done to myself?,’ Martha was crying bitterly in a sober reflection. ‘God please have mercy on me. Save me from this predicament. Do not forsake me..’, she cried unto God.
???? FLASHBACK????
‘..Martha, your mîsscariage came with a lot of complications. In fact, your survival was by the special grace of God,’ the doctor paused. ‘And from all medical indications, you have had severe complications from the àbôrtions you have committed. Consequently, your womb had been damaged severely..,’ he paused before continuing. ‘I am sorry, you cannot bear a child again,’ the doctor had to vomit it bluntly.
The bombshell hit Martha like an atomic bomb. Even KC was shocked too. They couldn’t not believe it.
‘Doc – Doc – Doctor, what do you mean? How come? How possible is that?,’ the two almost asked in unison, stammering.
The doctor cleared his throat and began to explain to them: ‘Look, whenever a woman has had an àbôrtion, she may likely experience some physical and emotional changes in her system. Although àbôrtion is generally considered safe. But in rare cases, it can lead to complications such as womb damage. This can be a serious issue that requires immediate medical attention,’ he paused. ‘ But In your case, Martha, you failed to seek professional medical attention even after the complications.
‘Some of the signs of womb damage after an abôrtîon includes:
Heavy bleeding: While it is normal to experience some bleeding after an abôrtîôn, heavy bleeding that persists beyond the first few days may be an indication of womb damage.
Abdominal pain: Cramping and abdominal pain are common side effects of an abôrtîôn. However, severe or persistent pain may indicate that there is an underlying problem, such as womb damage.
Foul-smelling discharge: A strong, unpleasant odor from vaginàl discharge can indicate an infection, which can be a complication of womb damage.
Fever: A fever is a sign that your body is fighting off an infection. If you experience a fever after an abôrtîôn, it may be a sign of womb damage.
Difficulty passing urine: If you have trouble passing urine or experience pain while urinating after an abôrtîôn, it may be a sign of womb damage.
So it’s advisable that If you experience any of these symptoms after an abôrtîôn, it is important to seek medical help as soon as possible.
Treatment for womb damage may involve medication, surgery, or other interventions, depending on the severity of the damage.
So It is very crucial to get proper medical attention to prevent any long-term complications..’, the doctor explained.

As you may know, Martha has had three abôrtîons for KC. And all came with its severe complications. She encountered most of these aforementioned signs in the aftermath of each of the àbôrtion. The worst of it all was the last àbôrtion that almost took her life. To the extent that Martha nearly bled to dèàth.
Thank goodness for the same roadside chemist man, who did the àbôrtion in the first place, that came and saved her life. But she failed to seek proper medical attention aftermath.
Aunty Ifeoma’s stepson, Mr. Johnson, and his wife, meanwhile, want her permanent in Canada. Let her be coming to Nigeria strictly on a visit basis.
Meanwhile, Aunty Ifeoma has fallen in love with Canada already. She even wants to stay in Canada too.
So it was very easy to convince her to stay in Canada.
Johnson had already started processing her documents. It was in top gear.
Martha couldn’t hide her pregnancy from Aunty Ifeoma forever. Even before the miscárrîàge, she found it out herself. Meanwhile, Aunty Ifeoma has been having this strong feeling that something was wrong with Martha. Not just that, she was also noticing some abnormalities and changes in Martha especially whenever she was on a video call with her. So one day, she hit Martha with the question: ‘Are you pregnant?’.
The question came very unexpectedly to Martha. She was shocked. Her reaction on the video call alone had exposed her already. In fact, she couldn’t deny it.
Martha had to confess to her.
If I say Aunty Ifeoma was disappointed in Martha, that’s understatement. The old woman shedded tears that fateful day. To the extent that Martha joined her. It was as if they were in a crying competition.
At the end, she still had to support her. As the mistake had been made. Besides, Martha was like a daughter to her.
The news of the miscarriage hit Aunty Ifeoma like a stroke. She cried upon hearing the news. But in the end, she had to accept everything in good faith.
Even as Aunty Ifeoma had finally got her stay documents in Canada, she still didn’t rent out her own flat of three bedrooms. She allowed Martha to be staying in the apartment pending when she would be married to KC. Because KC has given her his word on the phone that he would pay Martha’s bride price. Although that was when Martha was still pregnant for him.
Aunty Ifeoma had initially thought of renting her flat out. In fact, she had thought of moving her properties to the village. Then she would give Martha a room and parlor to stay. But on a second thought, she decided against the idea, atleast, let there be vacant apartment she would use whenever she visited Nigeria instead of spending money in hotel.
Meanwhile, Martha didn’t let Aunty Ifeoma know about her womb damage. She hid it in secrecy because she was still believing in God to reverse her case despite the fact that many tests from different hospitals had confirmed it that her chances of getting pregnant again was zero.
Bright had visited KC on a Sunday evening.
So as they were enjoying the Can beer KC had in the fridge, Bright brought up Martha’s topic.
‘Odogwu, what about Martha? It’s been a long time since I saw her. How is she? How is she coping with the unfortunate predicament that has befallen her?,’ Bright asked in a pity.
‘She’s in her house. Although it has not been easy for her. But she is gradually recovering from the shock. Although she’s finding it difficult to accept the fact that she cannot conceive again in her lifetime…’, KC replied.
‘KC do you know that you are a curse in Martha’s life. Look at how you ended up destroying that beautiful girl’s life…’, Bright had to pour out the blame on him.
‘Look, blame me as you can. But I never knew it would end like this. Had I known, I wouldn’t have pushed her into those àbôrtions. It’s all my fault. I will take the blame. But what now will I do because the damage had been done..,’ KC said while having pity on Martha.
‘And from the look of things, you are not going to marry this girl…’Bright asked.
I will not oh! Even if my people allowed me to, I will not. Tell me, what is marriage without children? Nothing! Because one of the major reasons men do marry is for the continuation of their lineage..’, KC defended his decision.
‘So you will abandon her to die in her fate?..’
‘It’s unfortunate. But it’s her fate. So let her carry her cross. Because there’s nothing I can do now. That’s the fact. You don’t expect me to marry her now. My people are not even in support of her,’ he paused. ‘If I now go ahead and marry her and at the end, our marital tree didn’t bear fruit, wouldn’t my people blame the hell out of me? They will say they warned me..,’ KC made it clear.
‘No, I wouldn’t advise you to marry her. Like I always preach, don’t marry a girl out of pity. In Martha’s case, it’s a: No! No!! Because if you do, and tomorrow you start crying for a child, God will not listen to you. Because it’s a problem you brought upon yourself. So Nwanne, please run 4:40 oh!,’ Bright added.
‘But there is a big problem..’, KC said, very worried.
‘What’s the problem?’, Bright had to ask.
‘Martha is blackmailing me emotionally. She’s blaming me for the whole thing. However, she’s indirectly making it a must that I will marry her; that I cannot destroy her life and abandon her..’, KC expressed his worry.
‘Don’t mind her. If she’s the one in your shoes, will she marry you? The answer is: No! Because no human being will leave the road and follow the bush,‘ he paused. ‘But you have to be very careful. You don’t have to wake up one day and tell her it’s over. No! You have to use wisdom to separate yourself from her..,’ Bright advised.
They continued discussing while drinking their chilled beer.
