OBLIVIOUS 2 (via @wickedstepmami)

Kema decided to treat his wife better after six long years of torture. He came back from work with a box of chocolates and met his wife sitting in the veranda. He smiled and asked for a hug,but Temi was not in the playing mood. She assumed he was trying to draw her close to him So he could push her away again. She got up and walked into the sitting room and he followed her. To her surprise, Kema got down on his knees and looked into her eyes, 'I know I've hurt you on countless occasions, and honestly, I don't deserve you,but please give me another chance to show you the love I deprived you of all these years'.
Temi looked at him and decided to allow him try, she had already began poisoning him through his tea, So she decided to play along.
Kema tried everything possible to make his wife happy, he made her breakfast in bed, bought her gifts, took her out but she kept resisting him subtly. He invited his friends over to his house to watch a football match,the guys kept discussing about how they wanted to be away from their wives, Kema was the only one with a different story. He told his friends that he was crazy about his wife and hopes she can forget all he did to her, Temi hears him and at this point, she was beginning to love him as well. She went to the kitchen to throw away the tin of tea which she poisoned, but it was already gone. Kema drank it all.she began to pray that it does not affect him.
Kema came home early again, smiling and eager to see his wife. He gave her a car key and took her outside to see her new car. He bought her a custom made toyota sequoia. Temi was already in tears, she held him and wouldn't let go, he didn't understand why she was So sad. He takes her to a room in the house which has been locked for six years and opens the doors, the room is a baby nursery. He explains to her that he wasn't around wen the baby was ill because he was So busy making the baby nursery that he neglected her and the baby, he wanted the baby to have a perfect home,but he lost it all and blamed himself for the death.
Temi is already soaked in tears, she can't speak, kema holds her and promises to make her the happiest woman on earth, he kisses her and he begins to feel a sharp pain in his chest. Temi was a nurse So she can tell that the effect of the ephineprine was already inducing a heart attack. She quickly
Calls the attention of the driver who rushes him to the hospital.
Kema is in a coma and his wife is by his side, she speaks to him with tears in her eyes ' I should never have tried to hurt you,please just come back to me, don't leave me just yet, we are expecting a baby'
*dries tears*
Kema's heart rate begins to drop and the doctors rush in and try to stabilize him but he stops breathing. Temi can't stop screaming, the nurses try to hold her but she jumps toward kema and hits his chest severally. To everybody's suprise, Kema came back to life, His heart picked up.
In the baby nursery, Temi's baby is already three months old and she tells her baby this story and smiles at the end. Kema walks in and kisses his baby goodnight.

The side effects of artificial eyelashes (via @wickedstepmami)

Although eyelash elongation creates a dazzling look to the eye, making it speak volumes. It creates a better alternative to applying coats of mascara to make the eyes stand out. It is however accompanied with health risks.
Overlooked health issues accompany this quest for beauty, as artificial eyelashes are applied directly to the natural eyelashes with a bonding agent, which are irritants that can cause discomfort and potential eye damage in severe cases.
Described by many as a beautification that adds length and fullness to the natural eyelashes, many women do not know that eyelashes elongation asides its glamour is also accompanied with other negative effects.
In the process of getting an eyelash fixed, many of its seekers concur that it is not painful and that the cost is fair. This is probably a reason for the increase in the number of ladies and women that patronise beauticians to have their eyelashes fixed.
The road side beauticians, are often patronsedbecause of their relatively lower prices, ranging from N200 to N1000. Simple as  they seem, the process of getting the artificial eyelash attached to the natural ones is done within minutes. But as short as the time frame is, the process is obviously one that puts the eyes at risk.
Aside having to sit still and keep the eyes open till it is done, the beautician applies the lashes to the eye with a glue and often times, most of them make the lashes stick with the aid of a toothpick. Two reasons obviously make the idea of a toothpick appalling, first, it is a sharp object and secondly, the same toothpick is often used for all customers.
Although the dazzling effect is achieved almost immediately, the problem often sets in few minutes later, when the eye becomes hyper sensitive to everything around it.
Women with very sensitive eyes might feel uncomfortable at the beginning, as the eye takes a moment to get accustomed with the new weight. Complaints from many first time users range from tension on the eyelids as a result of the glue, to watery eyes and heavy eyelids and if forcefully removed, the lashes pull off the natural lashes.
Studies show that repeated use of eyelash extensions can cause Traction Alopecia, a condition where the hair falls out due to excessive tension placed on the hair shaft. As a result, this can damage the hair follicle.
Using potent chemicals on the eyelashes make them fall out more quickly than they naturally would. While the life span of a lash is normally about five months for a new one to take its place, artificial eyelashes causes the eyelashes to shed two months after the procedure. Not only would it make the eyelashes become noticeably sparser, they may become brittle as well and break off, appearing much shorter.
Also at some point, bacteria sticks under the glue and to the artificial eyelashes, thereby causing infections. There must be a limit to the use of artificial eyelashes to prevent infection as well as eye injury. Both the eyelashes and the glue contain chemicals that can causean adverse reaction for some individuals.
A better approach to it is to first test glue on the wrist or at the back of the hand, before using it on the eyes. This would reflect the reaction that would be shown by the individual.  
Reactions from many users include difficulties in washing the face, having to be very careful around the eyes, sharp pain in the eye, constant discharge from the eye, watery eyes, heavy eyelids among others.  
According to Rosette Articles, the side effects of fixing artificial eyelashes included discomfort, which may follow after fixing of the lashes. Although the effect is temporary because the small hairs are placed individually to the eyelids, however, there will be pain, swelling and tenderness that are felt around the eyelid after the procedure.
Another effect is pruritus, a condition where there is moderate or intense itching of the eye. This can be relieved with ice packs and ointment too. Refrain from scratching also and you can wear goggles at night to prevent it.
The third effect is swelling, which shows on the first few days after the eyelashes have been implanted.  
According to the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery, another effect is endotropion, which causes trichiasis wherein the eyelashes grow in the wrong direction and going into the eye. Finally, infections may arise, either from poor performance or ununhygienic workmanship.
Fixing lashes should be done occasionally to allow the eye to rest.

OBLIVIOUS (via @wickedstepmami)

OBLIVIOUS


Its almost 12 am and Kema is not yet back, his wife, Temi sat on the sofa waiting for him as she has for the last six years of their marriage. Her night gown was soaked with tears as she looked out of the window anticipating his return.
Kema enters the house and taps her on the shoulder 'what are you doing here? Temi sits up and looks at him with the dried tears in her eyes 'I was waiting for you' she looked out the window and it was already morning. She got up and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast and also throw away the dinner she prepared the night before, Kema was already on his way out.
He asked for his tea as always and Temi prepares it without saying a word. After taking his tea, he rushes out of the house. This has been the situation of the house for the past six years of their marriage. She kept wondering what she was still doing there, considering the fact that her husband didn't seem to want her around. To her surprise, Kema enters the house with another woman and takes her straight to the bedroom without recognizing his wife's presence.
Temi runs to her room and bursts into tears, she remembers the event like it was yesterday, the day her baby girl died 5 years ago. Kema was forced to marry her after he impregnated her in a one night stand. She had the baby 2 months after their wedding, and because of lack of experience on her part, she lost the baby to Jaundice. She decided that the death of the baby was Kema's fault and so he had to die as well.
She goes to a nearby pharmacy and acquires a few cards of Epinephrine, a drug that can cause a heart attack when used too often. She empties the contents into his tea, and goes to bed. Kema is drinking with his friends and they don't seem happy with his womanizing. They advise him to quit and face his wife and he promises to do things differently. Little does he know the fate that awaits him back home, Will he love his wife as he should? Will she carry out her plan to kill him? Watch out for the next and final part.

Should a man wash his wife's pant via (@wickedstepmami)

Iђΐs issue is a delicate one and I believe it is a thing of choice. Washing a woman's undies doesn't make you any less of a man but I believe it should not be a regular thing. A man can help wash when his woman is indisposed it shouldn't be on a regular basis or something done out of compulsion.
I personally, would not allow my man wash my undies because I believe its too small a task to burden another person with, it doesn't take up to five minutes after bathing to do So.
What do you think? Leave your comments and don't forget to share

The Adventures of LARA; CAT via (@wickedstepmami)

On the second day of February, I moved into Lara hostel. It was so cool and serene, the kind of environment I loved to be in. at that time we were only 7 students living there, the transformer had not been connected yet but we were all so excited to be there. I was the only one in my block upstairs so occasionally, I would go to the balcony to relax.
I was answering a phone call when I heard a knock on my door, I went to open the door and that was the first time I met her, she was light skinned and had hazel coloured eyes like a cat, so I nicknamed her 'CAT'. She seemed so nice and offered to come around so we could chill. I was not a fan of 'gumming' people so I just smiled and went along with her gist. She left and went to her room and I didn't see her for the rest of the day.
The next day, her friends came to see her, they were like a wild pack of hyenas, and they kept screaming profanities like I have never heard before, I wondered why such a quiet girl would have such raw friends but it was none of my business so I closed my door and went inside to read. I began to hear strange noises coming from the end of the corridor, like someone begging, I opened my door to listen some more and I could hear cat screaming 'you're killing me' I was wondering why anyone would want to kill her. So I stepped out of my room and looked inside her room, and that was when I saw it, she and her friends were 69ing each other, i was so shocked that I stood lifeless for a few minutes.
On further investigation, I found out that cat had a boyfriend who visits her sometimes and was also a runs babe, she smoked so much that she became sick and was warned to stop. A new girl came to the hostel and asked for cat's room number, I was worried that cat would influence her negatively, but I was wrong, she was even worse than cat, but that's a story for another day.
Cat eventually left her boyfriend and settled for a younger guy who lived in the hostel or a younger slave if u may. I realized that I was in the jungle when new people started moving into the hostel. Characters of different shapes and sizes, But I was determined to survive, I became friends with a woman and her cousin who had vitiligo, but her story is for another day, don't forget to share, have a good day.
