Hello CKJ, please hide my email address. I am an ardent reader of your fiction stories. You are really doing a great job and I pray for greatness for you.
I am twenty
one year old undergraduate in a university in the western part. I was very
close to my elder brother until he married his girlfriend last year. He still
gives me money whenever I ask but he rarely calls unlike before. My school went
on strike recently and I told him. he asked me to visit him to spend a week and
I travelled to the Eastern part where he resides. My brother and his wife
welcomed me very well. She served me well for two days. On the third day (saturday),
I woke up early to clean the lsitting room and wash the plates as usual. When I
finished, I had my bath, dressed and went to the sitting room to wait for them.
I waited up till ten thirty and they did not come out. I wanted to check up on
them but I felt I might disturb them. I was very hungry and I decided to go to
the kitchen to cook. I took out the chicken stew from the fridge, warmed the
pot of stew and boiled spaghetti to eat with it. I was at the dinning eating
when my sister inlaw came out and saw me, she shouted and warned me never to
touch or dip spoon inside her pot that I should have waited for her. I tried to
explain but she didn’t let me. My brother came out and told me to apologize. I refused
and he said I should leave his house the next day. I went out to eat in a restaurant
later in the day. He gave me my fare and I travelled back. My brother have not
been picking my calls, he said I must beg his wife first before he can talk to
me. Was I wrong for what I did? Should I apologize?
My reply: You should have listened to your elder brother and apologized to his wife and he would not have told you to leave his house! All women are not the same! Put yourself in her shoes. What would you have done? She only shouted because she was angry and warned you never to dip a spoon into her pot of soup. Shikena! Call his wife, plead and call your brother to make peace. Stay blessed!
nonsense, y would she shout at you? for pot of stew ur brother paid for. where I come from, anyone is allowed to dish from the pot so I dnt see DAT as a big deal. did u inform ur parents? pls inform them and do what your mum ask u to do.

ReplyDeleteSome men lack wisdom sha, why would he just take sides like dat? Leave deir house for dem abeg...Don't call him again, he should be mature enuf to handle certain issues!
ReplyDeleteMy aunt does not like when another person, even her husband sef put spoon for her pot of soup. You should not have disrespected your brother because of food. Apologize but let your brother know what he did.
ReplyDeleteYou are not a fool for apologizing, do it because of peace.
ReplyDeleteSo I saw a post on this same issue of "hand dipping in pot" on Facebook some time back, some people make a big deal out of it though. First of all I feel your pain poster, pele. Your SIL overreacted, not cool. If I were you, I would have simply apologised for peace sake. It's not too late though. Life is too short for keeping little grudges. Please apologise to them both, it makes you the bigger person. When tempers calm down, do explain your reason. Family is everything, please reunite, cheers!
ReplyDeleteDear just apologize to ur SIL. U won't blame her for shouting at u,maybe she got angry cos d stew u used she has plans for it already, and reacted wen she saw u've used it. I'M SORRY is just two words, it takes nothing away from u but means a lot to d person is been said to. Dear just say it...
ReplyDeleteYour brother just showed his true colour, forgetting that blood is thicker than water. But, you also have to apologise, not that you are stupid but to clear the ish. As for his wife, don't make her your friend....
