A SUPERVISOR’S VISIT It so happened that Chinwe's mother visited them. It was a bit odd that she said she would spend two nights with them even when they lived in the same town ? David felt there was a hidden ring to it though he was quite excited that Lolo Dr Mrs Idika would

choose their humble home for a break. He soon got to learn that Chief Idika had gone on one of his numerous business trips and his wife had opted out. Since her daughter, her only daughter was self-employed she decided to spend a few days with her. Lolo Dr Mrs Idika, for all

her wealth, appeared to be a simple woman. She seemed to dress to impress the public because of her status, otherwise back home, it was mostly lounging wears. She was one of those women who managed to keep their preferred shapes despite giving birth to several children. She

was highly educated too and had lived abroad for many years, where Chinwe was born, which perhaps accounted for the lack of arrogance that naturally accompanied Nigeria's rich. Chief Idika had never lived anywhere beyond one whole month and so frequently made stopovers to see

his family in Norway. That evening when he returned from work he had heard loud laughter before Chinwe opened the door and welcomed him. They were drinking a Martini. The atmosphere was so convivial that he didn't know what made him say it. "I am finding it difficult identifying

my wife. The two girls look alike." He noticed a pleasant smile on his mother-Inlaw's face. In a playful reprimand Chinwe said to the mother. "Mummy see what you have caused now. Grow old you won't. Now you are confusing my husband." "Dr Mrs I am confident that like you, my

wife’s beauty will not fade when she reaches your age." "Of course it won't. Like daughter like mother!" "Although I must add, without mincing words that Mrs David's will be even more radiant." "I can't agree with you more. Nowadays they have ways to be even more beautiful."

He made to sit down. "Men are not welcome, yet. Something needs attending to upstairs." "Oh I see." He made as if he was going upstairs but quickly went over and took Chinwe's glass and drained it and ran off." "You must return my drink," Chinwe said playfully.

"Okay come and take it." Chinwe caught up with him and he held her and gave her a long kiss. "Naughty man." "Wait. It's remaining small." He kissed her again. It was spontaneous, at the same time it was intentional. A marriage has two supervisors: the mother-in-law and the

mother-in-law, each with biases towards his or her ward. It was essential therefore that a mother-in-law actually see her children happy being married to themselves, although in his own case, he feared that his own mother's visit would breed a less friendly atmosphere.

CHINWE seemed to understand, as she didn't allow her mother's presence inhibit the usual public display of affection she usually had towards her husband. So while they were not acting, they seemed to be acting it all. “You two love birds should carry your thing to your room

and leave me in peace.” “Dr Mrs excuse us. She’ll be right back. I want to brief her on something that happened today.” She took his wife to his room and told her. “Wait for me.” He quickly showered and went back to meet her. “So do you think Dr Mrs has a special reason to

visit ?” “Relax. She’s my mum. She can come anytime. I am sure she was just bored. She hasn’t mentioned anything since she came.” “Not even about our not getting pregnant yet ?” “See this one o. You and who ? Nope. She didn’t.” “My dear, when a woman is pregnant, the man must

be also.” “With lots of beer right ?” “Who is talking about a beer belly ? Sweetheart, the moment you are pregnant, I am with you all the way. I am going to carry the baby with you. I am not going to leave that burden to you alone.” “I see that you are thirsting so much for a
