My best friend is getting married next week, and I am seriously thinking of ru!ning her wedding.
She has been married before and has two children. She got divorced, picked herself up and now, in less than 3 years, she has found another man who wants to marry her.
I am going to be her maid of honour.
For the second time.
Me, again, standing beside her as she smiles brightly, wedding another man when I can't even get married myself.
I was supposed to be married Easter of 2024, but two days before our wedding day, my fiancé died in an accident.
Every time I meet someone new and they find out about it, they suddenly don't want to talk about marriage anymore.
This year again, I finally met someone who aligned with me in every way. He got me engaged, only for me to find out he was already married to a Nigerian woman in the UK, and he wanted me to be his wife here in Nigeria.
While I'm going through all this, my friend, a divorcee and single mother of two, is now getting married to a man she met in December.
How???
We did her bridal shower on Thursday and I couldn't contain my jealousy.
All our friends who came were either married or engaged. I was the only single woman there.
Everybody had rings on their ring fingers. Even those with rings that looked cheap and small were looking proud.
I felt so self-conscious.
She kept telling me, "You'll be the next."
But deep down, I felt like she was mocking me. Like she was gloating.
She's getting married again. A 36-year-old divorcee with two daughters. She is a size 14 with a big tummy, yet somehow she has found a man who wants to marry her again.
Meanwhile, me, with my flat tummy, perky b0obs and beautiful curvy body that doesn't even look 36, can't find my own husband.
I am in pa!n.
Even during her final dress fitting, watching her smile and talk to her man on the phone made me feel like something was ch0king me. It was like she was deliberately squeezing my heart.
I have her fiancé's number, and since that Thursday evening my mind has been telling me to do something terr!ble.
I want to tell her fiancé that she's still sle3ping with her ex-husband.
Or that she doesn't love him and is only marrying him to prove to her ex that she can remarry, even with two children.
And I feel it's safest to do it with a private number so neither of them finds out it was me that sent the message or call.
I don't want to risk our almost 17-year friendship, so I have to be careful if I actually go through with this.
I want to plant enough doubt in his mind to make him reconsider this marriage.
Even if he carries on with the wedding, their marriage may not last.
At least, if she's divorced a second time, I want to see how proud she will look.
I want to see if she can still look at me with that fake sympathy and say, "You're the next to get married."
The wedding is almost here.
And I honestly don't know if I can stop myself from telling my best friend's fiancé all these things about my friend.
What do you guys think.
